[aaloa supporters] Call for contributions for a session related to open source in Ambient Assisted Living at Med-e-Tel 2011

2010-12-20 Thread Thomas Karopka

Dear all,

I would like to ask for your contributions for a session related to Open 
Source software in the context of Ambient Assisted Living.
The session will be part of the FLOSS in health care track of Med-e-Tel 
.
Med-e-Tel has extended the deadline 
 
for submissions until 10th of January 2011. If you would like to submit 
an abstract for a paper you have to

submit your abstract until this deadline.
It is also possible to organize a discussion session without formally 
submitting a paper. If you would just like to be part of this session 
please contact me

via email (tkaro...@gmail.com ).

*About Med-e-Tel:*
Med-e-Tel is an annual event organized by the International Society for 
Telemedicine and eHealth (ISfTeH)  an NGO in 
official relation to the WHO.
Med-e-Tel  is now in it's 9th edition and 
attracts around 600 participants from more than 50 countries. There are 
also strong links to the WHO and the European Commission. Usually there 
is a representative of the EC at the conference.
The conference itself consists of an industry exposition (telemedicine 
and eHealth) and an educational track. For more information you may 
visit the website . All papers and presentations 
from the past years are available online 
.
The FLOSS in health care track 
 
was initiated this year. The track had 23 speakers, 1 keynote 
presentation and 1 panel discussion.
Next year we will continue with the FLOSS track. Please find the call 
for participation here 
.


Med-e-Tel is an excellent place for networking and promoting the idea of 
AALOA due to the mixture of both academic as well as industry 
representatives.
Moreover it is a meeting point for FLOSS in health care advocates. So 
there is the opportunity to reach this community at Med-e-Tel.


Best regards,
Thomas

Re: [aaloa supporters] Call for contributions for a session related to open source in Ambient Assisted Living at Med-e-Tel 2011

2010-12-20 Thread Mohammad-Reza Tazari

Dear Thomas,

indeed, I believe that it is very important to increase the interaction 
between AAL & Telemed/eHealth people, but for me personally April does 
not work at all. I keep my fingers crossed that other people contribute 
to organize this session...


Best regards,

Re: [aaloa supporters] News -- submitted project proposal on ZigBee integration with the OSGi Platform

2010-12-20 Thread Roberto Casas

I vote yes,

Also, as Antonio Kung said, osgi4ami try to specify interfaces 
independent from technology beneath; it doesn't stick to ZigBee.


regards,
Roberto

Dear Roberto,


Thank you very much, we will be happy to collaborate.
I added supporters list because it may be of general interest.

I knew about the OSGI4AMI software at the Monami workshop in Passau 
(16 November) .

We have  worked with Texas Instruments kit , you ?
We are searching for people working also on other hardware  technologies.
Unfortunately, the TI Red dongle we used is no longer available 
(http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/ez430-rf2480.html),

so only people with the same kit can test it, so far.
Actually it "should" work with the successive version of the TI kit, 
but we didn't have time to test it.


I invite you to report you positive or negative vote for the 
incubation of the ZigBee4OSGi project.

It will be recorded with the vote results of the Governing Board.

BRs,
Francesco

Dear Francesco,
we find your proposal very interesting and we would like to collaborate.
Indeed, inside Monami, together with Trialog we are promoting 
OSGI4AMI taxonomy (http://sourceforge.net/projects/osgi4ami/) 
inspired in the clusters of ZigBee. We have already implemented an 
osgi driver for the zigbee network we have also developed.

regards,
Roberto

 Dear Supporters,

today I submitted a first project proposal to the Governing Board of 
AALOA.
Even if the project was already announced, it was a needed action in 
order to define the process for submitting a project proposal.
The governig board will decide whether the project proposal is 
alligned to the AALOA mission and consequently will allocate the 
requested resources.


In particular this proposal is one of the outcomes of the PERSONA 
project (http://www.aal-persona.org/)  that finished with excellent 
evaluation few days ago.
As described in the Manifesto the leader proposing the project will 
be part of the AALOA Governing Board.


We don't have a formal proposal template so far.
I thought to the following sections:
1. Motivation for incubating the project
2. Description of the codebase or the input material for the project
3. Simple roadmap and invitation to contribute ( how the AALOA 
community could help)
4. People involved (e.g. the list of initial committers in case of 
software projects)
5. An optional expression of interest on the project incubation. ( 
list of people internal or external to AALOA )


I  invite all of you to read the proposal for the ZigBee 4 OSGi 
project,
help to advertise the project (when accepted) and help to contribute 
to the further development and testing.


Please,  if you have any doubt about  project proposal submission, 
don't hesitate to post your questions,

they will help to create a FAQ on the topic.

Kind regards,
Francesco
