July 7-12, 2012 Geneva, SWITZERLAND Call For Papers and Participation
limited on health topic [we apologize for duplicate receipt of this message]
Last call before deadline : march *31* 2012
Dear Colleague, The 13th Libre Software Meeting (LSM) takes place in Geneva, Switzerland, July 7-12 2012 (http://2012.rmll.info/).
LSM is an annual non-commercial conference on Libre Softwares that includes round tables
and practical workshops. The objective is to provide a place where
users, developers and promoters of Libre Software can exchange ideas and
information. Attendance is free and open to everyone. Each year the health workshop is held as part of this broader meeting.
This year, it will be organized around 3 major fields: - Accessibility, autonomy and dependency management (mobile/web accessibility, accessible desktop applications, usability, ...)
- Hospital information system & Tele-health (EHR, telemedicine systems, workflow solutions, PACS, HL7, ...)
- Imaging & visualization of medical data (CAS, CAD, bio-imaging, image acquisition/processing/segmentation/registration, simulation, organ tracking ...)
We invite presentations that address these major fields. The LSM committee aims to disseminate and improve
Libre projects in the health domain through this workshop. To better
target the various exchanges that will be taking place, the programme
committee of the health workshop proposes several kinds of meetings:
- "Solution" meetings, with conferences and round tables to present
solutions dedicated to previous areas.
- "State of the art" conferences between practitioners, developers and scientists to discuss about what exists according to the specific needs
of users, what works well or a little less well, to talk about approaches... - "Technical" presentations between developers and scientists. This will
allow initiation of exchanges between communities that do not necessarily have the opportunity to meet and will maybe lead to new collaborations
or projects. Finally, a workshop area will be available to try out and exchange tools presented by their authors or by seasoned users
of those solutions. Last year the health workshop received (for example) the
following projects: OsiriX, FreeMedForms, GDCM, Chewing Word, ITK, VTK, WEASIS, ... Information on health workshops from previous annual meetings are available on :
You will be able to attend conferences on other related issues such as "System Administration" (like Nagios, GLPI, Cfengine, ...), "Development" (like NoSQL, Lucene, GCC, ...), "Law" (like Licenses,OpenData, FSF, ...), "Internet"
