Applied transdisciplinary research
The central idea of the Winter School 2018 is the free exchange of information, experiences and results of recent research and development activities, in a number of topics related to multidisciplinary area of applied computing , between researchers from the ISTAR-IUL of the University Institute of Lisbon (ISCTE-IUL), as well as from other national and international academic institutions.
The Winter School aims at achieving a greater mutual understanding between those same researchers and the creation of real synergies that enhance fundamental, applied and transdisciplinary research projects, in the short, medium and long terms, in various scientific areas that are part or are somehow linked with applied computing, targeting successful proposals production (H2020, P2020, FCT and others R&D project).
This winter school aims at i) strengthening research synergies between the ISTAR-IUL members from computer sciences, architecture and mathematic and between them and external researchers and ii) reaching national and international MSc and PhD students.
The central theme of this Winter School is “Applied transdisciplinary research” and we have three related sessions: Group synergies, Ignite talks and Birds of a Feather. Besides the exchange of information the aim of these sessions is to enhance synergies and transdisciplinary research. Besides these session there are four workshops exploring new research tools and methods.
Key delegate is Richard Jennings from the faculty of Science of the Liverpool John Moores University and (TBA).
The Winterschool 2018 of is the first one that unites all the research groups and researchers from ISTAR-IUL. It evolves from the past three events of the Summer Workshop of Microsoft and ISTAR on Applied Computing (SUWMIAC) 1st, 2nd (Digital Living Spaces) and 3rd (Engineering our world) developed in collaboration with Microsoft.
