Description
We have invited John B. Stav from a research team in Norway specialized on videoconference systems, and Tandberg which is the world’s largest supplier of videoconference systems to have a talk and demonstration on how to use next generation videoconference systems in research.
John B. Stav has extensive experience and expertise of using state of the art 2nd generation multipoint videoconferencing solutions within blended learning and distance learning solutions, as well as visual collaboration technologies exploring virtual mobility/collaboration. Sør-Trøndelag University College (HiST) offers currently more than 1000 hours per year of videoconferencing adapted training. He has initiated several EU-founded R&D projects targeting effective use of visual communication, e.g. construction of an Independent European Audio-Visual Knowledgebase (completed in 2006), and validation of new models for in-company based training processes exploring high quality video communication. During the last 2 years he has published 25 articles in journals/international conferences targeting effective use of state of the art composite visual communication and collaboration services within different application areas and disciplines.
John B. Stav also has a PhD degree in physics from NTNU (Trondheim, Norway) within "Radiatve gluon effects in massive quark-antiquark production in collisions of polarized electrons and positrons". He has published several articles (Phys Rev. D) targeting polarizaton effects in electron-positrons collisions, as well as quark and anti-quark polarization effects in high energy electron positron annihilations. He should therefore have a good understanding of physicists’ communication needs.
Tandberg delivers state of the art videoconference systems and have been developing new technologies to make communication with videoconference systems more effective and easy to use. Tandberg will demonstrate how to use next generation videoconference systems and how these tools can be used in a research environment.
