Session Introduction 議題簡介：
Session 1 Computing for Collective Intelligence and Culture
Service Oriented Collective Intelligence(Language Grid)
Prof. Toru Ishida
To increase the accessibility and usability of online language services, this talk explains the Language Grid, which facilitates the creation of composite language services for various intercultural collaboration activities. The Language Grid is an initiative to build an infrastructure that allows end users to create new language services for their intercultural / multilingual activities. To this end, language resources (including data and programs) are wrapped as web services so that users can easily combine these services to create workflows that suit their own activities. Thus, the Language Grid can be seen as collective intelligence based on language services. The Language Grid is called "horizontal," when the grid connects standard languages, or "vertical," when the grid combines the language services generated by communities. There are four types of stakeholders in the Language Grid: Language Resource Provider, Computation Resource Provider, Language Service User, and Language Grid Operator (who coordinates the other stakeholders). Though there can be various operation models for the Language Grid, we propose a non-profit operation model in this talk. This model limits the usage of language services solely to non-profit operations, tries to match the incentives of stakeholders, and manages various issues associated with intellectual property rights, user privacy, and operation costs.
Cultural Computing: Exploring Japanese Culture
Prof. Naoko Tosa
In the cultural anthropology, there is a concept "center and periphery" in various ethnic cultures. A new culture is always developed from the periphery towards the center. In the cultural anthropology, by studying on the relationship among various cultures with the structuralism, it is possible to discover the multi-dimensionality of the reality which is in a different level that can not be observed from the surface of the reality. However, this method can not explain the dynamism of the culture by a static structuralism. The similar situation existed (or appeared) in the expresion of the culture using computer, that is, it is hard to illustrate the dynamism of the culture only with a static digital archive. An interactive Cultural Computing is regarded as one solution to be able to show the dynamism of the culture which is working at both center and periphery.
Session 2 Sensing Activities in Field
Biologging
Asst. Prof. Junichi Okuyama
Sensing of activities in the natural field, and human society are the key components in construction of field informatics because of the importance of the sensing itself and promising potential of utilization of information and communication technology. In this session, the state of art of the sensing technology to observe the activities of creatures in natural field, especially those living under the water is introduced.
Session 3 Participatory Approaches
Participatory Production by End Users and Industrial Accumulation
Prof. Hajime Kita
In 20th century, the mass production technology enabled industry to provide people with convenient products with low prices, and it contributed to increase of the welfare of people. However, at the same time, the mass production enforced the people to forgive to pursue the product highly meet their needs of large varieties. In 21st century, with the great progress of information and communication technology, industry is acquiring ability of making products for each consumer. Especially accumulation of thousands of small industrial farms has large potential as platform of such markets. Participation of the end users in production process for their own is one of the key activities in realization of such emergent market. In this study, aiming at participation of end users in production process, various coordination and facilitation of participation such as ethnographical field work to figure out realistic needs, and workshop of prototyping of products to make idea of products concrete as well as various learning occurring in such activities and its support.
Participatory simulation/gaming for science communication: the role of experimentation in building future
Asso. Prof. Reiko Hishiyama
The time has come to become increasingly aware of corporate social responsibility as represented by air and water pollution problems, food safety problems, etc. In order to build a sustainable society, we have to understand the social structures and scientific systems that we face in the progress of science and technology. On the other hand, the background causes of the problems are complex and uncertain; therefore, it is not easy for ordinary citizens or consumers to understand the mechanisms of these complex scientific reasoning problems, and to focus on what to do to change the situation in the present for the future. My goal is to realize improvement in efficiency of field communication that bridges scientific specialists and non-specialists by using information and communication technology. We conduct human- and agent-based participatory scientific simulations or gaming simulation on the Internet and support the practices of the communities. Now we center on several themes, including "global warning," which address the challenges of the global climate change mechanism and "GM food," which need to be tackled in dialogue among various interested parties.

Asst. Prof. Junichi Okuyama 奥山隼一 助理教授
GCOE Assistant Professor. Graduate School of Informatics, Kyoto University, Japan
Junichi Okuyama has worked on the development of Bio-logging techniques to clarify the behavior, movement and migration of marine animals. Bio-logging is a sensing technique for animals living in the “invisible” biosphere such as deep sea by animal-borne data loggers and transmitters. Current research issues are the developments of the reconstruction technique of three-dimensional movement pass of sea turtles, and the monitoring technique for feeding and respiratory behaviors of sea turtles by the acceleration-geomagnetic data logger attached on their head.
