| GEOG-AN- MOD 08 |
Stefania
Bertazzon (University of Calgary, Canada), Giuseppe Borruso (University of Trieste, | To date the availability of geographic data and information is growing, together with the capacity of users to operate with IT tools and instruments. Spatial data infrastructures are growing and allow a wide number of users to rely on them. This growth has not been fully coupled by an increase of knowledge to support spatial decisions. Spatial analytical techniques and geographical analysis and modelling methods are therefore required in order to analyse data and to facilitate the decision process at all levels. Old geographical issues can find an answer thanks to new methods and instruments, while new issues are developing, challenging the researchers for new solutions.

Integrated Methods and Algorithms for Non-Destructive Evaluations of Concrete Structures | IMANDECS 08 |
Giuseppe Acciani, Girolamo
Fornarelli, Tiziano Politi (Polytechnic of Bari, | Nowadays, non-destructive evaluation of concrete structure is an important issue. The diagnosis and control methodologies are based on techniques arising from different research areas. Nevertheless, information about the state of the structure under test result incomplete. The target of the proposed session is collecting works devoted to develop data acquisition integrated systems, information and knowledge management able to highlight specific characteristics and defects in concrete structure or masonry. Particularly, the papers will deal with optimization of traditional non-destructive diagnosis techniques, innovative non-destructive methodologies, integration and evaluation of multisensor information for diagnosis and identification of defects in concrete structure and/or masonry.

| UnConventional High Performance Computing | UCHPC 08 | Anders Hast (University of Gävle, Sweden) | GPU's are often used for HPC in the so called field "General-purpose computing on GPU's" (GPGPU). One limtitaion has been that only single precision is available, but double precision GPU's are already on the way. Also the Playstation 3 (PS3) has a lot of computing power for a very low cost and many researchers seem to be interested in the cell-based architecture for HPC. One trend seem to be to build clusters of such devices. A confernce track covering aspects of this could be attractive for many researchers in the field. |
