informaticity by rogério p c do nascimento, ph.d
DESCRIPTION
Informaticity is for the information which the electricity is for the electrical energy. Informaticity is the fusion of telecommunications and computer science. It represents the flow of data from ISP, wireless networks WLAN, GSM, GPRS, UMTS or Satellites connected to cellular, intelligent electric home appliances, HDTV, GPS devices and small networks of laptops, ubiquitous PC and devices using Bluetooth, Wifi, or Infrared. Attendees will see historical gathering showing the change of the physical location of the computation power: from mainframes to PC and ubiquitous (Web) devices, embedded devices and miniatures. Informaticity also provides to experience something new that is called Digital Convergence. Supported technologies, some case studies and e|m-* applications will be shown. At the end, it will be viewed current challenges (performance, security, accessibility and adaptation). Also ethical, social and political questions about the use and development of these new ICT will be discussed .TRANSCRIPT

devices should be:
• aware of user presence
• sensitive, adaptive and responsive to users
capabilities, needs, habits and emotions
• accessible via intuitive interaction

Epilogue“O saber deve ser como um rio, cujas águas doces,
grossas, copiosas, transbordem do indivíduo, e seespraiem, estancando a sede dos outros... Sem umfim social, o saber será a maior das futilidades ”
El saber debe ser como un río que mata la sede de los otros..
Sin una finalidad social, el conocimiento será la más importante de las futilidades.
conclusion
Knowledge should be like a river that helps starving people.. Without a social aim, knowledge will be the most important futility.
