| MEDIA: Models and Environments for Document-based Interaction and Authoring The MEDIA research group is part of the School of Computer and Communication Sciences at the EPFL. The group is deeply involved in research and training activities that relate to complex structured documents and, their use through global information systems over the Internet. The representation of electronic documents has moved away from the simple encoding practises of early usage, towards richer encoding that indicate the structure of the document as well as multimedia and metadata extensions. There has been a tendency towards developping and supporting standards for this task. XML (eXtended Markup Language), is one of the well-known of these standards and is currently supported by an increasing variety of related standards and tools that provide efficient management of "document oriented" data on the Web. Our research is about document models, languages and methods that encompass the use of electronic documents, as processable units of information, in Web-based environments. Offering new paradigms - based on rich user interfaces - for authoring and reusing structured information as well as supporting collaborative processes among nomadic users is of major concern in the MEDIA research group. |

News [See all the news] Call for papers: IHM 2010 (22ème édition de la conférence francophone sur l'Interaction Homme-Machine) This conference is co-organized by CRP-HT , one of our main partners in the framework of the PALETTE european project. See information at the Web site of the conference A new project started Since January we have started a new project funded by the Confederation’s innovation promotion agency CTI with our partner MadeinLocal. The goal of the "city guide written by your friends" project is to allow non-expert users to edit semantic-rich information with more intuitive user interfaces; and to build on these new input capabilities to complete a social search engine with advanced semantic search capabilities. This project will be the occasion to foster the development and the application of XTiger XML , the document template language we have co-invented with the Project WAM team at INRIA MadeinLocal.com has been awarded with the IMD startup prize Our partner MadeinLocal is among the 12th annual IMD Startup Competition winners ! The competition provides a unique opportunity for early-stage companies to benefit from the support and insights of MBA and Executive MBA participants. Therefore from January 2010, 5 MBA candidates from this prestigious business school will start contributing to the MadeinLocal business model and network. IMD is one of the world's leading business schools, located in Lausanne on Lake Geneva in Switzerland, IMD is the global meeting place for executives from all over the world. Job offers (France: INRIA Grenoble and UTC Compiègne) Two postdoctoral positions are open in the framework of the CM2 research project:"Multimedia Cooperative Publishing Chain". More information at Grenoble or Compiègne 25th Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing: call for participation We invite you to participate in the [Web Technologies track] of the 25th Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing. This track aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners from industry and academia working on practical and foundational aspects related to Web technologies and other technologies that in the Web framework have found new and unexpected application fields.
