UTM Lab Meeting: Analysis of Harmony in Music Signals

Talk by Jan Weil from TUB - "In addition to melody and rhythm, harmony is a key feature of western music. Simultaneously sounding pitches forming chords, and sequences of chords forming cadences establish the tonal context of a musical piece. In this talk I provide an overview of my recent work on the analysis of harmony in music signals. This analysis yields a mid-level representation, for which exemplary applications are presented."

UTM Lab meeting: INESC Porto and Planetlab, an Overview

Abstract: INESC Porto has recently joined Planetlab by means of UTM. Planetlab is an open platform that allows the R&D community to experiment and validate solutions in a a planetary-scale. This talk is to be provided by Rute Sofia, who will give an overview on Planetlab, its features, purpose, and advantages. We will also explain how somebody in INESC Porto can access and take advantage of Planetlab. Examples of services currently running on the platform are to be shown.

BASYS 2008 - 8th IFIP International Conference on Information Technology for Balanced Automation Systems

The focus of the BASYS'08 conference is to discuss the rapidly evolving field of integration of human actors and emergent technologies and multi-disciplinary approaches towards business ecosystems where a myriad of networked technologies and devices, full interacting with human beings, will be generating, consuming and relaying data and knowledge in the context of a pervasive digital environment.

UTM Lab meeting: Network Monitoring

Network monitoring is currently considered one of the main study areas in network management. Networks are growing very fast and users demand for new services (e.g. VoIP and VideoConference) with Quality of Service. Moreover, new business models demand for complex tariffs based on usage-based accounting or hybrid ones (mixture of event based and time based). Security is also becoming the main concern for users, regarding aspects as confidentiality, privacy or authenticity.

UTM Lab Meeting: MOSAICA P2P Distributed Content Management System

MOSAICA addresses the presentation and discovery of just about any cultural heritage and that will allow multiple groups of interest to develop innovative and creative user experience. It´s a European project and INESC is responsible for the implementation of a Peer-to-Peer(P2P) Distributed Content Management System (DCMS) that will store heritage contents with metadata associated for semantic querying. This presentation will address the decentralized storage mechanism, overall architecture of the P2P DCMS, the adopted P2P technologies (JXTA and Bittorrent), the SOAP interface implemented in each peer for integration with a larger Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), mechanisms for high availability of contents (super seeding activated through RSS feeds), integration with MOSAICA semantic layer, current implementation state and future developments.

UTM Lab Meeting: An Adaptive Cross-Layer Adaptation Framework for Media delivery over Heterogeneous Networks

Streaming applications in distributed systems are facing different problems at different layers of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) stack. Requirements regarding bandwidth, delay, jitter, video and terminal characteristics (temporal and space scalability) and user's preferences come together to influence the architecture of multimedia delivery services with particular quality-of-services (QoS). However the Internet architecture is only capable to support best-effort services, with varying network conditions during multimedia delivery. Currently, a multitude of protection and adaptation strategies exist at different OSI layers, however these strategies are independent of each other. To improve the perceived media quality delivered to end users over heterogeneous networks, QoS strategies should combine mechanisms at different layers, including application layer, transport layer and data link layer. In this paper, we formalize the problem of multimedia streaming application over heterogeneous networks, then discuss the challenges and finally present a putative architecture.
