A little less than four months after the launch of the TICAL and the 2nd Latin American e-Science Meeting calls (closed on Monday, June 11), the Program Committee of the events disclosed the number of received proposals: There were 175 in total; 133 of TICAL and 42 of the Meeting of e-Science. Colombia, with 49 proposals, and Ecuador, with 37, were the most participatory countries, followed by Mexico, Brazil, Chile and Argentina.
Represented by its respective Executive Directors Luis Eliécer Cadenas and Erik Huizer, the Latin American Cooperation of Advanced Networks (RedCLARA) and the pan-European advanced network GÉANT signed this Tuesday, June 12, in the framework of the TNC18 Conference, in Trondheim, Norway, agreements of interconnection and cooperation aiming to increase the academic collaboration between the two continents.
Those who have not yet submitted their papers to participate in TICAL2018 and the 2nd Latin American Meeting of e-Science should be attentive. Close this Monday, June 11, at 24h GMT, the calls for the two events, that will take place between September 3 and 5, at the Las Americas Convention Center, in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia.
With the aim of promoting the integration between the different actors of the ICT universe in Ecuador and sharing the best practices and lessons, establishing collaborative initiatives in the area, will take place between November 21 and 23, at the National University of Chimborazo, in the city of Riobamba, the sixth edition of the TIC.EC Conference, organized by the Ecuadorian network RedCEDIA.
To be held between November 1 and 3, 2018, the 1st International Conference on Applied Informatics (ICAI) extended its call for papers until June 8.
His website has his name and there you can find all the posts and studies in which he has worked, his videos, interviews and scientific publications, besides, of course, social network content. Our interviewee is probably the strangest "fish" in the waters of TICAL and the e-Science Meeting because, unlike all those who have passed through the plenary sessions until now, he does not come from the world of ICT or of the "hard" sciences, but from the humanities; in fact he is Professor of Communications at the University of California (Davis, USA). This is one of the activities of Martin Hilbert, Big Data expert who will go to TICAL2018 to share his experience in using the big data for the development of complex models and public policies.
