    The DDCPD-2012 Workshop will be held in conjunction with The 9th International Conference on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing (UIC 2012). Selected papers of the workshop will be published by IEEE-CS Conference Publishing Services (IEEE-DL and EI indexed). Fukuoka, Japan, September 04-07, 2012 Important dates • Paper Submission Deadline: May 31, 2012 (Final) • Authors Notification: June 15, 2012 • Final Manuscript Deadline: June 28, 2012 DDCPD-2012 CPF (text, PDF) Objectives and Scope Many types of device, both generic (computers, cell phones, etc.) and specific (sensors, devices with embedded systems) are able to collect different kinds of data for several different purposes. Often, when designing a system to deal with distributed data, there is the need to explore efficient, fast, precise and/or resilient ways to collect, process and analyse the data. Although most solutions are specific and ad-hoc, tools, techniques, and best practices from one deployment could be used in others, even for other application domains. The purpose of this workshop is to serve as a forum for discussion of issues related to distributed data collection, processing, analysis and dissemination, with emphasis on the following topics (non-exclusive list): • Architectures and systems for distributed data collection, processing, dissemination. • Sensor networks for data collection and processing. • Hardware-based approaches for large scale and sensors' data processing. • Distributed data collection and processing with embedded systems. • Emerging information systems for data collection and processing. • Distributed intelligence. • Extracting knowledge from distributed information systems. • Integration of heterogeneous data sources. • Data collection, processing and dissemination on the cloud, on grid and cluster computers.

  • University of Tsukuba at a Glance
    Maps and Data University of Tsukuba At a Glance 2019 Academic Year (Apr. 1 - Mar. 31) 1 HISTORY & CREST & SLOGAN ■ History Since its inception in Tsukuba Science City in 1973, the University of Tsukuba has offered a comprehensive curriculum of education, covering everything from literature and science to fine arts and physical education. Although the university’s roots stretch back much further than 40 years; its origins lie in the Normal School, the first of its kind in Japan, established in 1872 on the former site of Shoheizaka Gakumonjo. The school was renamed several times over the years, eventually becoming Tokyo Higher Normal School before incorporating four institutions—Tokyo Higher Normal School, Tokyo University of Literature and Science, Tokyo College of Physical Education, and Tokyo College of Agricultural Education—in 1949 to become the Tokyo University of Education, the forerunner to today’s University of Tsukuba. ■ Crest The University of Tsukuba’s “five-and-three paulownia” crest derives from the emblem adopted by Tokyo Higher Normal School students in 1903 for their school badge, which was inherited by the Tokyo University of Education in 1949. Later, in 1974, the University Council officially approved the crest as the school insignia of the University of Tsukuba. The “five-and-three paulownia” design is based on a traditional Japanese motif, but brings a unique variation to the classic style: the University of Tsukuba crest is different because only the outline of the leaves is depicted. The color of the crest is CLASSIC PURPLE, the official color of the University of Tsukuba. ■ Slogan (Japanese) 開かれた未来へ。 Since its inception, the University of Tsukuba’s philosophy has been one of openness as we seek to forge a better future through education, research, and all other aspects of academia.
