PRESENCE
2004 is organized by ISPR, the International
Society for Presence Research and the Medical
Image Computing Laboratory, and supported by the European
Commission's FET Presence
Research Initiative through the IST EMMA
and IST OMNIPRES
projects and by the Technical
University of Valencia.
Academics and practitioners with an interest in research,
theory, technologies, and applications related to the concept
of presence are invited to submit their work for presentation
at PRESENCE 2004 at Polytechnic University of Valencia, October
13-14-15, 2004.
The goal of the PRESENCE 2004 conference is to bring together
academic researchers in the area of media and presence, content
and technology developers, and interested commercial parties
so they can meet, share experiences, present research, and
exchange ideas.
Following the format of the earlier
successful PRESENCE workshops, we envision an informal, highly
interactive conference with a number of distinguished invited
speakers, paper presentations, special sessions on specific
topics, poster sessions. This year, the workshop adds emphasis
on project demonstrations and exhibitions of the FET Presence
Research Initiative. The facilities allow for plenary as well
as parallel sessions on individual topics. Of course, ample
time will be reserved for informal interactions between all
participants, and several social events will be organised
that will facilitate this.
PRESENCE 2004 takes place in Valencia,
Spain. The event is hosted by the Technical
University of Valencia, Medical Image Computing Laboratory
(MedICLab).
A free bus service will take participants for PRESENCE
2004 from the official hotels of the conference to the Universiad
Politécnica.
