GOOGLE TO CREATE DRIVERLESS TAXIS TO CARRY PASSENGERS
by Ragaavendra R 27 Aug '13

27 Aug '13

Dear Moderator kindly cirucualte. GOOGLE TO CREATE DRIVERLESS TAXIS TO CARRY PASSENGERS Technology giant Google is planning to create a fleet of driverless 'robo-taxis' to pick-up and drop-off passengers. The ultimate goal of Google's self-driving car project is to create a 'robo-taxi' that picks up commuters on demand. Such a system could transform transport systems around the world, doing away with the need for most people to buy cars, company executives believe. They also believe that it would reduce the number of road accidents as well as having environmental benefits, 'The Times' reported. Google's move to create a driverless vehicle of its own comes after the company held talks with major manufacturers in recent months, hoping that carmakers would build vehicles that incorporated Google's self-driving software. Since the launch of its self-driving car project in 2010, Google has created self-driving systems that have been installed in both a Toyota Prius and a Lexus RX. Cameras, sensors, radars and the company's own software has been added to the cars. Such vehicles have been given the green light to be tested on British roads before the end of the year, website 'cnet.co.uk' reported. However, it is believed the carmakers have been reluctant to enter a partnership with Google, not wishing to give the technology giant a foothold within the motoring industry. Frustrated by the lack of progress, Google is understood to have turned to designing its own cars instead. Last week the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reported that Google was close to reaching a deal with Continental, one of the world's largest car component makers, to supply parts for its vehicles. The robo-taxi system is being created within Google X, the department that develops futuristic technologies, including 'Glass' - a pair of high-tech spectacles that sends information straight to the eyes.

Call for Papers: VTU is organising a National Conference on “Redefining Libraries in Electronic Age, At VTU, Belgaum
by Dr.K.R. Mulla 24 Aug '13

24 Aug '13

Dear Sir/Madam, I am happy to inform you that, VTU is organising a National Conference on “Redefining Libraries in Electronic Age”, in the last week of November, 2013. At VTU Campus, Belgaum. The role of Library and Information Centers in the present era is ever changing and the traditional services have taken a new shape in the light of the Information Technological developments. Physical locations for ease of access to Library resources no longer an issue. Now Libraries are facilitating their users with 24/7 access using Internet Technology. Today physical use of libraries is declining drastically and most of the Librarians are expressing their concern over this development and are feeling insecure due to fall of user attendance in Libraries. This need not be the concern of Librarians. Today the users are techno-savvy and access more information than the earlier users. The libraries used to supply limited reference resources to their users earlier, but today’s users will get multiple resources on their fingertips. Hence the concern for Librarians of these days should be to redefine the role of Libraries in reaching the right information to the right user at right time. Hence a National Conference has been organized to provide a platform for discussing the following main issues: *Conference Theme: Redefining Libraries in Electronic Age * *Sub Themes:* *1. Redefining the organization of knowledge* a. Classification b. Cataloguing *2. Redefining the Information sources and services* a. Information sources and services b. Electronic sources and services *3. Redefining the management of library and information centers* a. Planning b. HRM & HRD c. Financial management and budgeting d. TQM e. Knowledge management f. Leadership and Public relations & Advocacy *4. Redefining the IT applications used in libraries* a. Library Automation b. Digital libraries c. Networking d. The digital tsunami *5. Redefining the User Education* a. Information Literacy b. Computer literacy c. Digital literacy *6. Redefining the information society and information science* a. Dr.S.R. Ranganathan’s school of thought b. Relevance of Five Laws of Library Science *7. Redefining LIS education* a. LIS as an Applied science b. LIS curriculum c. Collaboration of Library and LIS departments d. Library as a laboratory for LIS education *Who can Participate?* Library and Information professionals working in academic institutions, R & D Centers, Corporate and Public Libraries. *Important Dates* * * Paper Submission Deadline : 30-09-2013 Notification of Acceptance : 10-10-2013 Early bird offer for Registration : 25-10-2013 *Participation Fees (Early Bird Registration)* Library Professional : Rs. 500/- Students of LIS Schools : Rs. 300/- *Participation Fees (Registration After Deadline)* Library Professional : Rs. 750/- Students of LIS Schools : Rs. 500/- *Accommodation:-* Accommodation will be provided on request on VTU Campus. *Publication of Conference Volume:* Conference proceedings will be published with ISBN Number: 978-81-924696-0-7 Please use this email for further communication on Conference: krmulla(a)vtu.ac.in -- *Dr. K.

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2013 12:56:28 +0530 From: Rajendra Babu <hrajendra.babu(a)gmail.com> PES INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (PESIT) TEQIP-II Sponsored One Day National Symposium on Libraries: Managing Transition Organized in association with KARNATAKA STATE LIBRARY ASSOCIATION (KALA) On Thursday, 22nd August 2013 (9.00 AM to 5.00 PM) Venue: Techpark Seminar Hall, PES Institute of Technology, Bangalore �560085 What is this symposium about? There are indications that higher education institutions are entering a period of flux. A trend in recent years has been the rise of online instruction and degree programmes. Even in mainstream colleges offering on-campus programmes there is a certain amount of skepticism among managers of higher education institutions on the �return on investment� in a college library. College libraries must prove the value they provide to the academic enterprise: �unless we give our funding bodies better and more compelling reasons to support libraries, they will be forced by economic reality to stop doing so�; not a very happy situation to be in! However, there is also a bright spot as the BBC programme in 2012 entitled, �The Library Returns� suggested. College librarians must be able to convert the general feelings of goodwill towards the library to effective communication to all stakeholders that clearly articulate the value and utility of the library to the academic community. How do we innovate and re-design library services and continue to be relevant in the emerging situation? This workshop is intended to answer this question. A few librarians will share their experiences and demonstrate what they have done to reinvent their own libraries. The focus will be on acquiring, enabling access & effective utilization of e-resources, new services / activities that are implementable with no additional resources. Who should attend? We welcome all librarians, especially librarians from professional colleges, to attend the workshop. There will be one open session to allow all those who have introduced innovative practices to share and showcase their experiences. Resource Persons Since our idea is to make the participants hear from the �horse�s mouth�, the resource persons will be librarians who have done something different in their own institutions; they will tell the participants and also demonstrate what they have done and how their library users reacted to these. Certificates: Attendance and participation certificates would be issued to all the registered participants Registration: There is no registration fee for attending and participating in the symposium.

*--------------------------* *Invitation * *--------------------------- * *Call for Papers* *International Conference on Knowledge Modelling and Knowledge Management 20-21 November, 2013* *Bangalore, India* *http://www.drtc.isibang.ac.in/ickm* Hosted by: Documentation Research and Training Centre (DRTC)<http://drtc.isibang.ac.in/> Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) <http://www.isibang.ac.in/> Documentation Research and Training Centre, Indian Statistical Institute, announces an International Conference on Knowledge Modelling and Knowledge Management <http://www.drtc.isibang.ac.in/ickm> to bring together experts from different areas of information science, computer science, artificial intelligence and other disciplines, who have a mutual interest in understanding and solving problems of knowledge modelling and knowledge management. The aim is to recognize and focus on new areas of knowledge modelling and knowledge management. Therefore philosophy, logic, linguistics, cognitive science, health care, management science, media, etc. are relevant areas, too. Knowledge modelling is becoming increasingly an important topic for researchers, designers and users of intelligent systems. It encompasses a cross disciplinary approach to capture and model knowledge in a way to facilitate preservation of knowledge and ensure it can be aggregated, substituted, improved, shared and reapplied. The modelling is done to create a machine interpretable model of knowledge which should be used to stimulate intelligence. Knowledge management is concerned with the effective and efficient management of the organization's intellectual assets, consisting of tools, techniques and processes that govern the entire process of identifying and creating knowledge, representing, distributing and the utilization of knowledge. However, capturing, analysing, representing and manipulating the heterogeneous nature of knowledge was and is still challenging from both theoretical and practical perspectives. On behalf of the ICKM 2013 Committee, we invite you to submit your original research work and to participate in the International Conference on Knowledge modelling and Knowledge Management (ICTK), which will take place at Indian Statistical Institute on 20-21 November 2013, in Bangalore, India. Topics of interest to the conference include (but not limited to) the following: Knowledge Acquisition - Knowledge sources - Techniques of knowledge extraction - Knowledge mining - Ontology learning - Crowdsourcing Knowledge Modelling and Reasoning - Knowledge models - Principled approaches - Language, tools and methods - Ontology and context - Ontology and semantics - Reasoning Methodology - Application vs. general ontologies - Collaborative knowledge modelling - Ontology sharing and reuse - Ontology matching and matching techniques - Ontology integration and allignment - Role of reference ontology in ontology allignment - Knowledge capture and refinement Natural language Processing - Natural Language Processing (NLP) in knowledge engineering - Natural language understanding, including syntactic parsing, word sense disambiguation, semantic role labeling etc - Text mining (e.g., named entity recognition, term and concept recognition, relation extraction) - Lexical resources and corpora (e.g., dictionaries, thesaurus, ontology) - Issues and challenges Applications and Case Studies - Ontology driven information systems design - Ontology based application systems - Requirement centric engineering - Domain ontologies, especialy for Health sciences, Life science, Agriculture, E-commerse, E-Government, Law, Library science, Fine arts (not limited to these domains) Linked Data - Architecture and infrastructure - Symbiosis of linked data and open data - Linked data publication - Linked data publication; fusion of linked data and metadata - Search, query, analysis and integration of linked data - Reasoning, mining visualization and user interaction with linked data - Domain specific applications (e.g., E-Government, Disaster, Life science etc.), mashup Evaluation - Methods - Evaluation frameworks - Benchmarks - Golden standards *Important Dates* *Dead line for full paper submission: * *Friday, 20 September 2013, 12:00 IST* *Acceptance Notification :* * **Tuesday, 20 October 2013, 12:00 IST* *Deadline for Camera-ready copy:** Thursday, 31 October 2013, 12:00 IST* *Deadline for registration:** Friday, 1 November 2013, 12:00 IST* *Paper Submission for ICKM 2013* Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers (not being considered for publication elsewhere) in standard format (double column, single-spaced, 10-pt font) describing new ideas, models, theoretical and/or experimental research.

Mahatma Gandhi University Library moves to Koha
by Vimal Kumar V. 18 Aug '13

18 Aug '13

Dear Friends, Mahatma Gandhi University Library, Kottayam, Kerala officially moved to Koha Open Source Library Management system on 13 August 2013. Dr. Sheena Shukkur, Pro-Vice-Chancellor of Mahatma Gandhi University inaugurated Koha system at MGU Library. MGU Library team completed data migration from SOUL (ver. 1) software last month. Bibliographic, user and transaction data could successfully moved to Koha from SOUL. Acquisition, Circulation, Technical (Cataloguing), Periodical and Maintenance sections have started to use concerned modules. Now all modules of the software are functional after one month trial period. Koha installed in a server, which housed in the library building. In near future, the same server can make use to install multiple Koha instances for other department and study centre libraries. Now the Koha service is available inside the campus only. Online catalogue can access from anywhere inside the campus. Few months back, library staff had received one week hands on training. A team of Koha experts are now available in the library to provide continuing support and training to staff. We received only the support of Koha community for the successful implementation of the Open Source library management system. We are thankful to all Koha community members from India and abroad for the quick and enormous support during our migration process. -- Vimal Kumar V.

It is the only Indian institute that has made it to the top 500 in the 2013 Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) which was released by the Center for World-Class Universities at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The 104-year-old entity is ranked in the 301-400 category. IISc, which was ranked 45 in the world ranking for Chemistry last year, is on 43rd spot this time. The premier institute has shown a dramatic improvement in Computer Science as well. From 101-150 in 2012, it is now listed in the 51-75 bracket. In Math, however, it retained last year's ranking in the 151-200 slot. Harvard tops the global ranking, followed by Stanford and University of California, Berkeley. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Cambridge University are in fourth and fifth position respectively, in the ARWU rankings. Stanford tops in Computer Science, followed by MIT (97.8 score) and University of California (89.4). In Mathematics, it's Princeton University which is in numero uno position, followed by Harvard and University of California, Berkeley. Harvard rules the roost in Physics, Chemistry and Economics. MIT and University of California, Berkeley, are the second and third best to study Physics, while University of California, Berkeley, and Stanford share the top three in Chemistry. In Economics, it is University of Chicago which has grabbed second rank. MIT is in the third position. RANKING ORDER ARWU uses six objective indicators to rank world universities, including the number of alumni and staff winning Nobel Prizes and Fields Medals, number of highly cited researchers selected by Thomson Scientific, number of articles published in journals of Nature and Science, number of articles indexed in Science Citation Index - Expanded and Social Sciences Citation Index, and per capita performance with respect to the size of an institution.

One Day National Symposium on Libraries: Managing Transition Thursday, 22nd Augu st 2013 at PES Institute of Technology
by mailman＠ncsi.iisc.ernet.in 15 Aug '13

15 Aug '13

Rajendra Babu hrajendra.babu(a)gmail.com Tue Aug 13 16:59:33 IST 2013 TEQIP-II Sponsored One Day National Symposium on Libraries: Managing Transition Organized in association with KARNATAKA STATE LIBRARY ASSOCIATION (KALA) On Thursday, 22nd August 2013 (9.00 AM to 5.00 PM) Venue: Techpark Seminar Hall, PES Institute of Technology, Bangalore 560085 What is this symposium about? There are indications that higher education institutions are entering a period of flux. A trend in recent years has been the rise of online instruction and degree programmes. Even in mainstream colleges offering on-campus programmes there is a certain amount of skepticism among managers of higher education institutions on the return on investment in a college library. College libraries must prove the value they provide to the academic enterprise: unless we give our funding bodies better and more compelling reasons to support libraries, they will be forced by economic reality to stop doing so; not a very happy situation to be in! However, there is also a bright spot as the BBC programme in 2012 entitled, The Library Returns suggested. College librarians must be able to convert the general feelings of goodwill towards the library to effective communication to all stakeholders that clearly articulate the value and utility of the library to the academic community. How do we innovate and re-design library services and continue to be relevant in the emerging situation? This workshop is intended to answer this question. A few librarians will share their experiences and demonstrate what they have done to reinvent their own libraries. The focus will be on acquiring, enabling access & effective utilization of e-resources, new services / activities that are implementable with no additional resources. Who should attend? We welcome all librarians, especially librarians from professional colleges, to attend the workshop. There will be one open session to allow all those who have introduced innovative practices to share and showcase their experiences. Resource Persons: Since our idea is to make the participants hear from the horses mouth, the resource persons will be librarians who have done something different in their own institutions; they will tell the participants and also demonstrate what they have done and how their library users reacted to these. Registration: There is no registration fee for attending and participating in the symposium. However, all those desirous of participating in the Workshop must register online. Click here to Register Now Certificates: Attendance and participation certificates would be issued to all the registered participants For further enquires please contact: Mr. Subhash Reddy B Organizing Secretary and Librarian I/C Library & Learning Resource Center PES Institute of Technology (PESIT) 100 Ft.
