Code source: special 40th anniversary issue
The Grand Palais in Lille was the scene of INRIA's 40th anniversary celebrations on 10-11 December. The event not only provided the Institute with an opportunity to look back over its past but also to look into its future, by including the Computer Science and Society Forum in the celebrations. The forum launched a social debate that explored ICSTs from many different angles through a series of lectures that took place in a highly festive atmosphere. Code source, the weekly publication, takes a closer look at the event in its special issue - Year 2007.

What do bibliometric indicators tell us about scientific output?
Bibliometric indicators enjoy a certain following in the scientific community
and are used to assess researchers and institutions or to compare the performances
of European research systems. Admittedly, these indicators have their uses,
but they often point towards a situation that is far removed from the reality
they are supposed to describe. INRIA's evaluation committee studying this
problem and has set up a think-tank. Its coordinator gives us a low-down
of its results. Interview

Humanising virtual interactions:
Today, 3D models are used in many applications, from automotive to architecture and aerospace to medicine. Tomorrow, they should revolutionise communal teleworking, but only if virtual collaborative environments, which allow people to interact with these models, also develop. Facilitating and improving virtual collaborations was the task Christophe Chaillou, researcher at INRIA (project-team ALCOVE), and Professor Pan Chunhong set themselves. At LIAMA in Beijing, they are working on "new representations of users mixing avatar and video". More...

Digital watermarking - invisible, robust and secure:
Digital watermarking, for images, video, audio or software source codes,
is used to hide messages in a host file in a non perceptible manner. For
more than ten years, researchers have been studying the perceptibility criteria
and robustness of watermarking, but very few have focussed on the security
aspect.Teddy Furon (project TEMICS) has analysed standard digital watermarking
techniques and he is now striving to find new watermarking techniques
that will ensure greater security. More

2007: An exceptional year full of promise and off to a

On 3 January 1967, Act No. 67-7 went into effect in
France. It laid out the objectives of the Plan Calcul,
aimed at developing research and industrial activities in computer
science fields. The legislation also called for the creation of
an institute for research in computer science and control, giving
rise to IRIA, later to become INRIA. The Institute has played a
major role in the expansion of information and communication science
and technology, and has influenced the information revolution.
Now 40 years old, INRIA still has all the vitality of its early
days. January is just getting started and there are already plenty
of events and announcements. More...
