Most urgent action item:

@RWTH, @CELSTEC: please send an update of current status to the googlegroup

@Marcus: we should discuss how we can organize five computers in public spaces at ECTEL, and a place to put the tabletop if Bram gets it to work in time

- Bram:

- working on hardware, projector hopefully arrives next week

- experimenting with libraries

- maybe adapt ESPOL application for multitouch

- maybe something like the VTM news in Flanders (?)

- Fridolin:

- recommender and Flashmeeting

- fossa: graph rendering in actionscript

- visualiing different kinds of contributors

- working on combinations of visualizations

- co-citation would be cool, but need good data (Sten?)

- Xavier/ESPOL

- extracting data from papers: last version of parscit

- thanks to Sten for converting to database

- EdMedia app copied to EcTel

- http://nyx.cti.espol.edu.ec/ectel

- co-citers are interesting find

> make available at ECTEL, maybe as a way to contact people

- working with Fridolin on combining ECTEL data and Flashmeeting data

(see google group for illustrations)

- maybe add way to figure out why people are connected?

- doubles in data (Germany, most prolific)

- Xavier added geo-data and will upload them to database

  so did Till, who already uploaded data

  needs to be merged

- Sten

- transformed xml to database and cleaned up manually

- hibernate binding on top of the database

- REST web service to retrieve data in JSON

- researched components to use in mash-up

- later: return co-authors, co-citers, cited papers, ... in web service

- graphML is potentially useful?

- on top of google scholar etc.

> good topic for Science2Tel workshop, make a good linked data citizen

[Stefaan Ternier]

Here an update of what we did:

• made a java library for reading RFID tags using the (cheap) touchatag libraries.
• shared that library with Xavier
• Idea is to created an application that (based on two RFID tags) can analyse and visualise citation connections between these two people.
• Mobile learning experiments with android platform
  
• barcodes
• GPS, compass
  
• augmented reality applications using wikitude and gamaray api using MACE content (not sure if we can use this here though)
  

Best,
Stefaan
