The 10th European Congress of Stereology and Image Analysis

Jun 22, 2009 - Jun 26, 2009,
University of Milan, Milan, Lombardia Italy 20133

The International Society for Stereology (ISS), founded in 1961 and incorporated in 1963, includes members from the fields of mathematics, statistics, biology and materials science. The purpose of the Society is to promote the exchange and dissemination of information, amongst persons of various scientific disciplines and countries, regarding Stereology - nominally the science of determining the spatial structure of materials - on the basis of sections and projections through the materials. Stereology also embraces the analysis of planar images per se, and three- dimensional probes of materials. A prime concern of the Society is all practical applications of Stereology. The ISS also promotes such associated fields as Image Analysis and Processing, Stochastic Geometry, Mathematical Morphology, Pattern Recognition, and Fractal Geometry.

A more recent interest has arisen in Biology and Medicine with respect to the above mentioned keywords.

4th International Conference on Cognitive Radio Oriented Wireless Networks and Communications (CrownCom 2009)

Jun 22, 2009 - Jun 24, 2009,
Courtyard Marriott Hannover Maschsee Hannover, Niedersachsen Germany

The owned spectrum allocation model in use today is believed to be obsolete. Firstly due to its intrinsic principle of fixed resource allocation that leads to a supposed spectrum scarcity, later revealed to be a question of non-efficient utilization. Secondly comes into play the need of introducing new wireless applications and services, which have experienced a huge growth in the last couple of decades, and are now supposed to cope with a multitude of already deployed standards. Both scenarios motivate the use of dynamic spectrum access in order to turn primary licensed networks into dynamic spectrum access networks (DSANs). This lends itself to cognitive radio, an enabling technology that will benefit several types of players and help to implement a more efficient approach regarding spectrum requirements in the future.
