Fashion Arabia

Mar 23, 2008 - Mar 26, 2008,
Jeddah International Exhibition & Convention Centre, Jeddah, Mecca, Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is the single largest consumer market in the Middle East, this is particularly true within the general clothing and footwear market; however, high fashion, leather goods, accessories, cosmetics and perfumes are showing particularly strong growth.

With a rapidly increasing population the Saudi market presents excellent opportunities for existing and new-to-market apparel manufacturers and suppliers. With a negligible domestic manufacturing base Saudi Arabia imports account for 94% of the total market value of US$ 4 billion.

The perfumes and cosmetics sector is also experiencing strong demand and, according to a report by the Saudi-American Business Council, will rise by 7% in 2006 to a total market value of $1.4bn.

Shopping is the main national pastime and social activity for the whole family. To cater for this phenomenon the wide array of existing shopping malls are constantly being added to with many new ones either under construction or in the planning stage. This requirement for diversity in products has also been recognised by the super and hypermarkets, with the introduction of non-food lines and own-label products that encompass the entire fashion sector.

The 5th International Conference on Wireless,Mobile and Ubiquitous Technologies in Education (WMUTE2008)

Mar 23, 2008 - Mar 26, 2008,
Beijing Normal University, Beijing, Beijing (munic.) China

The rapid progress of mobile and ubiquitous technologies enables internet connections , anytime and anywhere, with ease. Traditional ways of learning and teaching, happen ing at fixed times and places such as schools or offices and limited with numbers of people, are changing remarkably. Although such technologies allow people to learn in an appropriate context, they cannot guarantee that the learning environments we design will be successful. Issues of design, implementation, deployment and evaluation of such technology supported learning environments should be investigated from interdisciplinary points of view, including computer science, educational research, cognitive science, and so on.

WMUTE 2008 is the 5th international meeting, extending the four previous WMTE/WMUTE workshops held in 2002 (Vaxjo), 2004 (Taipei), 2005 (Tokushima) and 2006 (Athens) to become a conference the first time . This conference provides a forum for researchers and practitioners of this emerging area for discussing these innovative learning technologies and challenging research issues through high quality papers and presentations.
