- MLV-Viewer: multi-level visualization in decision support systems prototypePublication . Alves, Carlos Manuel Oliveira; Pérez Cota, Manuel; Diáz Rodríguez, María; González Castro, Miguel RamónInformation visualization (InfoVis) is defined as "the use of visual, interactive and visual representations supported by computer, to increase cognition". InfoVis tools and methods help us accelerate our understanding of a large amount of data. Data visualization improves understanding, especially with multidimensional data sets. Visual analysis methods allow decision makers to combine their human flexibility, creativity and knowledge with the huge storage and processing capabilities of today's computers for information about complex problems. Using advanced visual interfaces, humans can interact directly with the data analysis, adding more to their liking and need. The MLV-Viewer prototype will be described in this article.

- Proceedings of the 9th Conference on Autonomous Robot Systems and CompetitionsPublication . Gonçalves, Paulo; Torres, Paulo; Alves, Carlos Manuel OliveiraWelcome to ROBOTICA 2009. This is the 9th edition of the conference on Autonomous Robot Systems and Competitions, the third time with IEEE‐Robotics and Automation Society Technical Co‐Sponsorship. Previous editions were held since 2001 in Guimarães, Aveiro, Porto, Lisboa, Coimbra and Algarve. ROBOTICA 2009 is held on the 7th May, 2009, in Castelo Branco , Portugal. ROBOTICA has received 32 paper submissions, from 10 countries, in South America, Asia and Europe. To evaluate each submission, three reviews by paper were performed by the international program committee. 23 papers were published in the proceedings and presented at the conference. Of these, 14 papers were selected for oral presentation and 9 papers were selected for poster presentation. The global acceptance ratio was 72%. After the conference, eighth papers will be published in the Portuguese journal Robótica, and the best student paper will be published in IEEE Multidisciplinary Engineering Education Magazine. Three prizes will be awarded in the conference for: the best conference paper, the best student paper and the best presentation. The last two, sponsored by the IEEE Education Society ‐ Student Activities Committee. We would like to express our thanks to all participants. First of all to the authors, whose quality work is the essence of this conference. Next, to all the members of the international program committee and reviewers, who helped us with their expertise and valuable time. We would also like to deeply thank the invited speaker, Jean Paul Laumond, LAAS‐CNRS France, for their excellent contribution in the field of humanoid robots. Finally, a word of appreciation for the hard work of the secretariat and volunteers. Our deep gratitude goes to the Scientific Organisations that kindly agreed to sponsor the Conference, and made it come true. We look forward to seeing more results of R&D work on Robotics at ROBOTICA 2010, somewhere in Portugal.
