Always VERY inspiring to watch Randy Pausch's Last Lecture 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams' again!! ... and to recommend it to some of my students youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_Mq…

Our @acmtochi paper on theoretical foundations for end-user development of cross-device and IoT applications has just been published: doi.org/10.1145/3716133 @VUBrussel @DINFVUB @asanctor #HCI

Just gave an online info session for international students interested in our MSc in Computer Science and MSc in Applied Informatics programmes 😀 speakerdeck.com/signer/info-se… @VUBrussel @DINFVUB

Just reached 250'000 views for our research on academia.edu :-) vub.academia.edu/BeatSigner @VUBrussel @researchvub

Our latest paper on "Seamless Data Persistence in Simulation Models: A Metaprogramming Approach in Julia" is going to be presented at SIMUtools 2024 in December wise.vub.ac.be/publication/se… @DINFVUB @VUBrussel #SimJulia #persistence

This Friday, Kushal successfully defended his PhD thesis in public. Congratulations, Dr. Kushal Soni! @VUB_WISE @DINFVUB @VUBrussel

Also this year we held the graduation ceremony at Grand Place. Congratulations again to all our students of the Class of 2024! @DINFVUB @VUBrussel #Brussels #ClassOf2024

Ready for tomorrow's start of the new academic year with the first lecture of the course on Human-Computer Interaction... @DINFVUB @VUBrussel #HCI #CS speakerdeck.com/signer/introdu…
This morning, I had the pleasure of welcoming many new motivated students to our Master's programme. Of course we wish them all a great start at the #VUB and a lot of success during their studies! speakerdeck.com/signer/master-… @DINFVUB @VUBrussel #computerscience #CS #informatics

My keynote "As We May Interact: Challenges and Opportunities for Next-Generation Human-Information Interaction" to be presented at #HUMAN24 beatsigner.com/publications/s… @DINFVUB @VUBrussel #ht2024 #hci

Today @MVdWSoftware presented our paper 'FidMark: A Fiducial Marker Ontology for Semantically Describing Visual Markers' at #ESWC2024 wise.vub.ac.be/publication/fi…

Interoperability of AR applications starts with a common frame of reference between applications. FidMark is an ontology that plays a small but crucial role in this. To be presented on the first conference day of #eswc2024 in two weeks fidmark.openhps.org
If you missed our poster today, our poster on Discoverable and Interoperable AR Environments through Solid is still being presented at #sosy2024 #solidproject maximvdw.github.io/sosy2024/
Our paper "Towards a Write Once Run Anywhere Approach in End-User IoT Development" is currently presented at the 9th International Conference on Internet of Things, Big Data and Security (IoTBDS 2024) wise.vub.ac.be/publication/to… @DINFVUB @VUBrussel #IoT

We will present our poster "Discoverable and Interoperable Augmented Reality Environments Through Solid Pods" at the 2nd #SolidSymposium on the 2nd & 3th of May in Leuven, Belgium More information about the solution will follow ... #solidproject #interoperability #linkeddata
