DR Hyowon Lee Centre for Digital Video Processing, CLARITY: Centre for Sensor Web Technologies, Dublin City University
Current R&D in Multimedia technology is advancing in a fierce rate and will sure to become part of our important regular items in a 'conventional' technology inventory in near future. While the R&D nature of this technology means its accuracy, reliability and robustness are not sufficient enough to be used in real world yet, we want to envision NOW the near-future where this technology will have matured and used in real applications in order to explore and start shaping many possible new ways this novel technology could be utilised. In this talk, some of this effort in designing novel applications that incorporate Multimedia technology as their backend will be presented. In addition, with some representative examples of such novel applications the problems and issues will be raised in interaction design research for novel applications and how somewhat different Human-Computer Interaction approach is required in practice.

Semantic Web and Knowledge Services is...
Our research in the Semantic Web area looks at the potentials of fusing together advances in a range of disciplines, and applying them in a systemic way to simplify the development of intelligent, knowledge-based web services and to facilitate human access and use of knowledge available on the web. For instance, we are exploring ways in which tnatural language interfaces can be used to facilitate access to data distributed over different repositories. We are also developing infrastructures to support rapid development and deployment of semantic web services, which can be used to create web applications on-the-fly. We are also investigating ways in which semantic technology can support learning on the web, through a combination of knowledge representation support, pedagogical theories and intelligent content aggregation mechanisms. Finally, we are also investigating the Semantic Web itself as a domain of analysis and performing large scale empirical studies to uncover data about the concrete epistemologies which can be found on the Semantic Web. This exciting new area of research gives us concrete insights on the different conceptualizations that are present on the Semantic Web by giving us the possibility to discover which are the most common viewpoints, which viewpoints are mutually inconsistent, to what extent different models agree or disagree, etc...
Our aim is to be at the forefront of both theoretical and practical developments on the Semantic Web not only by developing theories and models, but also by building concrete applications, for a variety of domains and user communities, including KMi and the Open University itself.
