USYD Basser seminar, 06.04.05: Jon Patrick on "The Scamseek Project"
seminar at it.usyd.edu.au
Basser Seminar series, School of Information Technologies, USYD:
The Scamseek Project - Identifying Financial Scams on the Internet
Speaker: Jon Patrick
University of Sydney
Time: 06. April 2005, 2-3pm
Location: Sydney Uni, Madsen Building, room G92
ABSTRACT:
The Scamseek project had the principal objective of building an industrially
viable system that retrieves potential scam candidate texts from the Internet
and classifies them as to their potential risk of containing an illegal
investment proposal or advice. The value of the system is the gain of
significant time and efficiency savings for the human analyst. The project was
developed in two stages over 15 months and produced multiple classifiers for
different types of data, achieved higher than expected performance statistics .....

FIFTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON QUALITY SOFTWARE
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA, SEPTEMBER 19 -21, 2005
http://www.ict.swin.edu.au/conferences/qsic2005
------------------------------- ***** -------------------------------
BACKGROUND
----------
Software is playing an increasingly important role in our day-to-day
life. Unfortunately, software systems often fail to deliver according
to promises. It is well known that there are still unresolved errors
in many of the software systems that we are using every day.
The aim of the QSIC series of conferences is to provide a forum to
bring together researchers and practitioners working on improving the .....

Call for papers
Agent-based approaches to systems development are becoming increasingly
popular. The agent paradigm finds application in all stages of software
development, ranging from agent-oriented conceptual modeling and
requirements elicitation, through specification, design, implementation,
testing and maintenance. The rise in the popularity of agent-based
approaches coincided
with the advent of the web, and was, in part, driven by it. Web
applications helped emphasize the value proposition of agent-based
software and strong synergy has existed between web engineering and
agent-based approaches ever since.
At this time, agent applications drive web search engines and underpin
the semantic web initiative. Large, complex, distributed applications .....

I am pleased to announce the 1st IFIP Working Conference on
Computer Aided Innovation November 14-15, 2005 Hosted by
DaimlerChrysler Research and Technology: Digital Engineering
Competence Center, Ulm, Germany.
I quote from the conference welcome page at
http://www.mty.itesm.mx/dia/centros/cidyt/1ifip-cai/Pagina/
The development of a new category of tools known as CAI
(Computer Aided Innovation) is growing as a response to a
higher industry demand. These new tools stand out from the
current CAD/CAE/CAM tools because they challenge the
previous standards.
The goal of these CAI tools is to assist designers and process
developers in their creative stage, expecting changes in .....

COMPUTATIONAL RESEARCH SUPPORT UNIT
UNIT MANAGER & 3 COMPUTATIONAL SCIENTISTS
Faculty of Science
UTS and its Faculty of Science are establishing a Computational
Research Support Unit in response to the rapidly evolving importance
of computation in the practice of modern science. The Unit will have
a staff of five and will provide a unified, comprehensive and expert
service to researchers. In addition to its internal role, supporting the
computational activities/needs of researchers within the University, the
Unit will be contributing to the programs of the Australian Partnership
for Advanced Computing (APAC)—the national partnership established by
the Commonwealth to provide advanced computing and grid services to the
Australian research community.
At this exciting and formative time, there are four positions to be
filled: a Manager of the Unit, and three specialist programmers—one in
the area of data grids and the two primarily in application support—who
will be associated with the APAC programs.
