  • Toledo Congress Center, El Greco Toledo, Spain December 2Nd - 4Th, 2015
    Organized by: PRELIMINARY PROGRAM Toledo Congress Center, El Greco Toledo, Spain December 2nd - 4th, 2015 TOLEDO WORLD CAPITAL OF HYDRATION, 2015 © Antonio L. Pareja On an evening in 1614, Domenikos Theotokopoulos, El Greco, picked up the easel and concluded his work “View and Plan of Toledo”, in which he described his particular vision of a city that owes its existence to the Tagus river. Exactly 400 years later, A. Pareja replaces oil painting by photography and the easel by the tripod in order to capture -this time reflecting the true picture- the same view of the City of the Three Cultures and from the same place where El Greco designed his painting. WELCOME Dear friends, Hydration is a health and nutrition field whose relevance is continuously growing among the scientific, medical and pharmaceutical communities, but also in the dietetics and nutrition areas and among consumers worldwide. We find ourselves facing this challenge, which is also a great opportunity, where the scientific community can join efforts to work as one, providing a global vision on new research areas related to hydration and its role in health. Therefore, it is my pleasure to invite you to participate in the II International and IV Spanish Hydration Congress that will be held the 2nd, 3rd and 4th of December 2015 in Toledo; a beautiful city representative of cultural and intellectual diversity. This event, which has taken place every two years since 2008, has become a scientific milestone of tremendous international significance. The last congress, held in 2013, enjoyed the participation of over 1,000 health and nutrition experts from 22 countries within 5 continents, and where 91 new scientific papers were presented.

Abstract Spain keeps an exceptional epigraphic heritage, dated from the Roman civilization, that integrates thousands of Latin inscrip- tions nowadays disseminated along the Iberian peninsula. For many purposes such as education, innovation, cataloging, study and dissemination of this type of historical documentation, a clear demand of placing all this epigraphic heritage into modern 3D graphics, internet and mobile devices is increasing. We present the novel ‘Epigraphia 3D’ for handheld devices, a native Android app for exploring a total of 60 Roman inscriptions from the National Museum of Roman Art (Mérida, Badajoz). The work emphasizes the 3D nature feature for navigating through the inscriptions, by using Glob3 Mobile, an open source GIS framework for visualizing the 3D inscriptions. Besides, an error analysis of the simplified models is tackled. Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.3 [Computer Graphics]: Picture/Image Generation—Digitizing and Scanning 1.

  • Press Release
    AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL PRESS RELEASE Spain: No violent policing of demonstrations On the eve of the EU summit in Seville this weekend, Amnesty International is again calling on the Spanish authorities to ensure that policing of demonstrations respects the right to peaceful protest as reports emerged of clashes between strikers and police. In addition to a number of different protests over the next few days, the EU summit is taking place at the same time as a general strike and an immigrant lock-in at the Universidad Pablo de Olavide in Seville. "The importance of allowing people to assemble and express their opinions peacefully cannot be emphasized enough," said Amnesty International. Law enforcement officers appear to have used excessive and indiscriminate force during an anti-globalization demonstration in Barcelona in June 2001, and a protest by students in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in November 2001. These precedents prompted the organization to make a similar call to the Spanish authorities before the EU summit in Barcelona in March 2002. "Policing has to be measured in its methods, and respect the rights of people engaged in non-violent protest," the organization added. More recently Amnesty International received a report alleging that a health secretary of the Unión General de Trabajadores (General Union of Workers, UGT) was physically attacked and wrongfully detained by National Police officers. The incident on 14 June reportedly took place when Inmaculada Alascio and two other of her trade union colleagues were spray painting words of support for the general strike of 20 June on the wall of a commercial centre in Seville.
