3rd International Congress on Image and Signal Processing

7. March 2010 by admin.

The 3^rd International Congress on Image and Signal Processing (CISP 2010) and the 3^rd International Conference on BioMedical Engineering and Informatics (BMEI 2010) will be jointly held in Yantai, China. Yantai was listed as one of the world’s most inhabitable places by the United Nations and was recognized as the “most charming city of China” by China Central Television. Undulating hills rise above the area’s many rivers and are framed by beaches and neighboring islands. During summer, the breeze wafts from the sea, and the hills become ornamented with a sea of wildflowers. Famous tourist attractions include the Tashan Mountain, Kongdong Island, and Penglai Pavilion Scenic Area. Seafood and fruits are plentiful in Yantai.

CISP’10-BMEI’10 is a premier international forum for scientists and researchers to present the state of the art of multimedia, signal processing, biomedical engineering and informatics. The previous CISP’09-BMEI’09 attracted over 3000 submissions from around the world. The registration fee of US$390 includes proceedings, lunches, dinners, banquet, coffee breaks, and all technical sessions. CISP’10-BMEI’10 is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Selected best papers will appear in SCI-indexed journal(s). All papers in conference proceedings will be indexed by both EI Compendex and ISTP, as well as the IEEE Xplore (CISP 2010 IEEE Catalog Number: CFP1094D-PRT, ISBN: 978-1-4244-6514-9; BMEI 2010 IEEE Catalog Number: CFP1093D-PRT, ISBN: 978-1-4244-6496-8).

Digital Gameplay as Socio-technical Practice

7. March 2010 by admin.

*************************************************************************************************************
EASST Conference 2010, European Association for the Study of Science
and Technology
‘Practicing Science and Technology, Performing the Social,’
University of Trento, Italy, 2-4 September 2010. Abstract submission
deadline: 15 March 2010.
http://events.unitn.it/en/easst010
**************************************************************************************************************

TRACK:

DIGITAL GAME PLAY AS SOCIOTECHNICAL PRACTICE

The Digital Game industry has become one of the fastest growing,
innovative and globalised industries in advanced Western economies and
Digital Games have become a key cultural artefact and leisure practice
in contemporary societies. Developing out of the American military
industrial and academic complex in the 1970s the study of Digital
Games design and play is the study of a range of sociotechnical
practices and the negotiations between a range of human and non-human
actors operating within systems of rules. The complexity of these
relationships brings forth a series of questions that can be
investigated using Science and Technology Studies approaches. However,
to date games studies, with few exceptions, have failed to adopt STS
approaches and the STS community has largely ignored this area of
study.

This track seeks to develop the relationship between the game studies
community and the STS community. Several research questions can be
used to guide this: What STS theories can be used to understand
Digital Games as sociotechnical phenomenon? Is the concept of practice
and the practice-based approach useful to investigate Digital Games?
Is there a relationship between power as inscribed and imposed by
artefacts and the technical dimensions of Digital Games? What rules
are inscribed into Digital Games technologies and what social worlds
do these rules describe? What contribution can the study of Digital
Games make to the STS discipline at large? And what contribution can
an STS approach make to game studies? Can we foresee an after-method
approach for Digital Games?

We invite papers that tackle the sociotechnical dimensions of Digital
Games and address some of the questions outlined above. Contributions
might include (but are not restricted to):

•       Digital Games as material semiotic artefacts
•       Digital Games as sociotechnical assemblages
•       The mess of digital games
•       Innovation in game design as actor-networking and social shaping
•       Digital Game design and/or play as performance and practice
•       Disruptive sociotechnical users’ practices (e.g. hacking, modding)
•       The scripting of gendered gaming practices
•       Governance and regulation of gaming practices

Abstracts of no more than 500 words should be sent by email (following
website instructions:
http://events.unitn.it/en/easst010/abstract-submission) by 2010 March
15th. Please include also a preliminary references list (up to 4).

The City of Vancouver
Bordered by the Coast Mountain Range and the Pacific Ocean, Vancouver is
recognized as one of the world’s most livable cities. Archaeological
evidence shows that the Coast Salish people had settled the Vancouver
area by 500 BC. In the 1870s, Vancouver was founded as a sawmill
settlement called Granville. And in 1886, the city was incorporated and
renamed Vancouver after Captain George Vancouver, a British naval
captain who explored the area in 1792. Vancouver is the eighth largest
city in Canada with a population of 578,000 (2006 census) and has one of
the mildest climates in Canada with temperatures averaging around 3
degrees Celsius in January and 18 degrees Celsius in July. It covers
114.7 sq km (44.3 sq miles), and is part of Metro Vancouver, the third
largest metropolitan area in Canada, with a population of 2.1 million
(2006 census). The City of Vancouver is renowned for its innovative
programs in the areas of sustainability, accessibility and inclusivity.
In 2010, Vancouver will host the world at the 2010 Olympic and
Paralympic Winter Games. Vancouver has more than 200 diverse parks, but
Vancouver’s most famous park is Stanley Park. One of the largest urban
parks in the world, with 150 year old forest, 8.85 km of seawall, and
many popular attractions.

The Vancouver Convention and Exhibition Centre
Built on the original Pier B-C on Vancouver’s Waterfront, the Vancouver
Convention Centre first served as the Canada Pavilion for the World’s
Fair Expo in 1986. Since then, it has grown to become recognized as one
of the leading convention centres in the world.  It has been designated
a Power Smart Convention Centre by BC Hydro, awarded the “GO GREEN”
certificate from the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) for
industry-approved, environmental best practices in building management,
and contains a living roof, seawater heating and cooling, on-site water
treatment and fish habitat built into the foundation of the West
Building making it one of the “greenest” convention centres in the
world.  The Convention Centre is located at 1055 Canada Place,
Vancouver, BC, V6C 0C3, Canada. (http://www.vancouverconventioncentre.com/)
