Paulo Miguel Silvério Santos, Departamento de Engenharia Informática – Abstract: A necessidade de analisar a informação operacional produzida pelas organizações não é um problema recente, mas, tem vindo a agudizar-se significativamente. O data warehousing consiste na tecnologia encontrada que melhor se adequa para armazenamento e…

Simone Antunes Correia, Departamento de Engenharia Informática – Abstract: Este trabalho de investigação aborda a temática de testes automáticos, realizados sobre sistemas com interface gráfica, através de ferramentas do tipo capture-replay. Nesta dissertação, propomos um método para geração e execução automática de testes funcionais que…

Vincent Moulton, University of East Anglia – Abstract: In this talk we will present two unrelated methods for constructing networks from molecular sequence data and from metabolic profiles. Phylogenetic networks are a generalization of phylogenetic trees that permit the representation of conflicting signal or alternative…

Ricardo Chaves, Inesc-ID – Abstract: This presentation introduces the Trusted Computing problem and proposes a reconfigurable approach to the existing solution, the Trusted Computing module chip. The new Trusted Computing approach to computation provides additional safety to the user’s data and a higher protection against…

António Manuel Horta Branco João Silva, NLX-Natural Language Group, Universidade Nova de Lisboa – Abstract: In this talk, we report on a series of experiments on the tagging of gender and number inflection that sought to explore the serendipity of the rationale that inflection forms…

Luis Coelho, Inesc-ID – Abstract: The problem we address is text indexing for approximate matching. We consider that we are given a text T which undergoes some preprocessing to generate an index. We can later query this index to identify the places where a string…

Monique Noirhomme, Université de Namur – Abstract: With her team, M. Noirhomme has realised a video to make students aware on problems of blind persons using the Web.It is called ‘Ecran Noir’ and is also subtitled in English and in Portuguese. It has been presented…

José Germano, Inesc-ID – Abstract: This presentation introduces an architecture for a portable system based on a magnetoresistive biochip microarray for DNA recognition or microorganism/cell identification. In this biochip, biological targets are labeled with magnetic nanoparticles which are used to guide target over surface immobilized…

Rute Costa, Centro de Linguística da Universidade Nova de Lisboa – Abstract: É nosso objectivo dar conta das metodologias utilizadas para extracção de termos a partir de textos de especialidade, tendo por base a descrição da língua. Estamos convictos que a descrição da língua permite…

Paulo Flores, Inesc-ID – Abstract: Several computationally intensive operations, such as, Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters and Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT), involve a sequence of Multiply-Accumulate (MAC) operations with constant coefficients. Hardwired dedicated architectures are the best option for maximum performance and minimum power consumption….
