> Kickoff Workshop on Information Technology

> Cooperative Research between Chile and Germany
>
> 15-17 September 1999 in Chile
>
> Sponsored by the Chilean-German Cooperative Programme in Computer Science
>----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>The governments of Chile and Germany have agreed to initiate a cooperative
>program for research in several areas of mutual interest. The aim of the
>program is to foster cooperation between ongoing research projects on both
>sides and to provide mobility funds for intensive exchange of knowledge
>between the research groups. This program is coordinated by the Ministry for
>Foreign Relations and CONICYT on the Chilean side, and the International
>Bureau of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) at the
>German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Germany.
>
>Computer Science is one of the areas of interest and we invite researchers
>from both countries working in this field to apply for participation in the
>program and submit proposals for cooperation. Focus of the cooperation in
>computer science will be on projects which emphasize the application of
>information technology to various areas and which show a high potential of
>industrial applicability.
>
>Possible application fields are:
>
> * Environmental Technology,
> * Traffic and Transport,
> * Energy and Mining,
> * and others, e.g. Agriculture and Forestry Technologies.
>
>We expect to receive joint proposals from Chilean and German teams which
>work on similar topics and could beneficially complement each other. Areas
>in computer science which have been defined to be of high interest for both
>sides are:
>
> * Software Technology,
> * Visualization,
> * Multimedia Technology,
> * Intelligent Data Analysis (data mining),
> * Planing and Optimization,
> * Simulation,
> * Data Bases.
>
>Proposals for participation in the cooperation program should be joint
>proposals of both prospective partners. The proposal should consist of a
>technical summary of the research project (no more than 3 pages), a
>description of the partners and their research strengths (no more than 2
>pages each), and a description of how the partners complement each other.
>All proposals must be written in English.
>
>To assist research groups from one country interested in cooperating with a
>suitable partner from the other country, the coordinator of that country
>will suggest a potential partner on the basis of a one page summary of a
>group's research area, together with a list of relevant English publications
>and possibly a pointer to a web site containing further information. If you
>wish to make use of this service, please contact the coordinators via one of
>the addresses given below.
>
>Proposals should be sent, preferably by e-mail, before May 1st, 1999, to the
>technical coordinators (see below). The proposals which fit into the aims
>and objectives of the program will be invited for presentation at the
>workshop. Notifications of acceptance will be sent until June 30th, 1999.
>During the workshop, enough time will be available for the attending
>partners of a proposal to refine it for submission to the funding agencies.
>The deadline for submission of final proposals will be some weeks after the
>workshop. Based on the written material and on the presentation, proposals
>will be evaluated on their technical quality and those selected will be
>granted a budget to cover travel costs for visiting each other.
>
>Similar workshops will be held regularly, Chile and Germany taking it in
>turns to host these events.
