ПОКАНА за официалното откриване на Третата балканска конференция по информатика, BCI 2007

27.09.2007г. (четвъртък) от 9.30 часа в Аулата на СУ "Св. Климент Охридски"

            Удостояване със званието Dr Honoris Causa на проф. Марк Харис – това e едно от нещата, които ще се случат в рамките на конференцията, 27-29.09.2007г, София.

BCI 2007 е третата поред Балканска конференция по информатика след BCI 2003, проведена в Солун, и BCI 2005, състояла се в Охрид. Конференцията предоставя форум за дискусии и разпространение на научни постижения в областта на информатиката, подпомага сътрудничеството между учени от Балканския полуостров и извън него и стимулира млади учени от региона да представят свои изследвания и разработки. Провежда се по време на Дните на Джон Атанасов, които протичат под патронажа на Президента на Република България.

Организатори на конференцията са Държавната агенция за информационни технологии и съобщения (ДАИТС), Софийският университет "Св. Климент Охридски", чрез Факултета по математика и информатика (ФМИ), и Българската академия на науките, чрез Института по паралелна обработка на информацията (ИПОИ).

Конференцията се осъществява с подкрепата на Министерството на образованието и науката, компаниите Мтел, Фадата, Майкрософт и други партньори.

Събитието се радва на голям интерес от страна на академичната общност. Очакват се над 120 участника от над 15 страни. Броят на представянията, засягащи Съвременните информационни системи, Алгоритми и приложения, Комуникационни мрежи и грид-технологии, Софтуерни технологии, Информационна сигурност, надвишзва 80. В програмата са включени и семинари, посветени на европейската технологична платформа за софтуер и услуги NESSI, на сензори за обработка на сигнали и изображения, на младите учени и технологиите в помощ на образованието, на учителя-новатор.

Сред поканените за откриването на конференцията официални лица са: президентът на републиката Георги Първанов, министърът на образованието и науката Даниел Вълчев и министърът на външните работи на Република България Ивайло Калфин, заместник-министърът на МОН Ваня Добрева, заместник-министърът на МОН Кирчо Атанасов, заместник-министърът на икономиката и енергетиката Нина Радева, заместник-министърът на икономиката и енергетиката Лъчезар Борисов, кметът на Столична Община ген. Бойко Борисов, председателят на Комисията по образованието и науката в Парламента Лютви Местан.
