Burton’s words invoke the gallery of maps Pope Alexander VII assembled in Castel Gandolfo outside Rome in 1665 and animate Sutton Nicholls’s ink-and-wash drawing of Samuel Pepys’s library in London in 1693 (Fig. 1).2 There, in a room lined with bookcases and portraits, a map stands out, mounted on canvas and sus- pended from two cords; it is Giovanni Battista Falda’s view of Rome, published in 1676.

    7th Technical-Scientific Conference Italian Army Transport and Material School - Conference Room Via dell’Esercito – Cecchignola - Roma 6-8 November 2007 MIMOS, a Society that associates who in Italy is interested and involved in modelling & simulation and virtual reality, is organizing its seventh annual edition of Technical and Scientific Conference. It is the first time that the Conference is moved from its historical site in Turin to be held in Rome in order to achieve a greater prominence and a wider audience involvement. The event aims at facilitating the exchange of experiences among the participants involved in specific sectors and encouraging the development of liaisons between the different sectors. The Conference is also conceived to offer to audience not familiar with specific topics the opportunity to increase their awareness and possibly to establish relationships between solution providers and end users. The 2007 edition spans over three days and includes several sessions dedicated to recent innovations and achievements in the following topics: • Defence • Medicine and Surgery • Cultural Heritage • Virtual World The first day is fully dedicated to Defence applications and is organised jointly with AFCEA Rome Chapter, which will focus on the support that modelling and simulation technologies provide to NCW, with particular regards to the use of Integrated Test Beds. National Stakeholders speakers, both military and industrial, will be present during the day. The session devoted to Medicine and Surgery applications is foreseen during the second day and covers the evolution of new methods and technologies in Augmented Reality, which are used as a support in surgery and application of simulation based training for innovative surgery techniques, with speakers coming from Universities and research centres on a national and international level.
