7th Technical-Scientific Conference
Italian Army Transport and Material School - Conference Room
Via dell’Esercito – Cecchignola - Roma
6-8 November 2007
MIMOS, a Society that associates who in Italy is interested and involved in modelling &
simulation and virtual reality, is organizing its seventh annual edition of Technical and
Scientific Conference.
It is the first time that the Conference is moved from its historical site in Turin to be held
in Rome in order to achieve a greater prominence and a wider audience involvement.
The event aims at facilitating the exchange of experiences among the participants
involved in specific sectors and encouraging the development of liaisons between the
different sectors. The Conference is also conceived to offer to audience not familiar with
specific topics the opportunity to increase their awareness and possibly to establish
relationships between solution providers and end users.
The 2007 edition spans over three days and includes several sessions dedicated to
recent innovations and achievements in the following topics:
• Defence
• Medicine and Surgery
• Cultural Heritage
• Virtual World
The first day is fully dedicated to Defence applications and is organised jointly with
AFCEA Rome Chapter, which will focus on the support that modelling and simulation
technologies provide to NCW, with particular regards to the use of Integrated Test Beds.
National Stakeholders speakers, both military and industrial, will be present during the day.
The session devoted to Medicine and Surgery applications is foreseen during the
second day and covers the evolution of new methods and technologies in Augmented
Reality, which are used as a support in surgery and application of simulation based training
for innovative surgery techniques, with speakers coming from Universities and research
centres on a national and international level.
Also, during the second day there will be a session held by the European Network Of
Excellence INTUITION (www.intuition.eunetwork.net). This network is active in VR/VE
technologies and systems future workspaces, which are continuously in cooperation with
national organizations, including MIMOS, and will present the roadmap of the European
research in the field of VR/VE and a specific deepening on two conference topics: Medical
and Cultural Heritage. Furthermore, strategy and instruments will be presented for network
sustainability, as an incubator for research and business opportunities in the VR/VE sectors
in Europe.
The Cultural Heritage will be the main topic of the third day and will harmonically join the
past historical events to modern technologies. They will be represented by research centres
and companies involved in this field which will discuss their experiences gathered from
working in important Italian archaeological sites.
The Conference will be closed by a round table on Virtual Worlds. The aim is to show
and discuss the potential and criticism of companies populating virtual worlds such as
Second Life, Active World. Both experiences and opinions will be exchanged between
experts and audience in order to discuss, criticise, and know some projects so far realised
and the new hypothesis of development. Some of the most active and known specialists in
Second Life and Real Life have been invited to share their own experience with the audience.
There are no Conference fees, but it is necessary to register on www.mimos.it no
later than 30 October 2007.
