Title: Intelligent Tutoring Systems: History and State-of-the-art

Since the 70's it is believed that software may be used as a tool to facilitate teaching and learning. Different learning and teaching theories have been used to generate software products that teach
students of all ages, across various domains. Specifically, Intelligent Tutoring Systems use Artificial Intelligence techniques to produce effective and efficient educational software, by personalizing instruction to each individual student. This talk will summarize the history of tutoring systems since their conception, current different areas of study within the field, and future directions. In general, I will sinthesize the research questions and contributions of an International Community of Artificial Intelligence in Education that collaborates and combines efforts to conceive, design, develop and
analyze the effectiveness of adaptive interactive learning environments.

Título: Computação Aplicada à Medicina, Alguns Desafios Relacionados à Extração de Conhecimento a partir de Bases de Dados Médicas

Com o avanço tecnológico, sistemas de computação têm se tornado cada vez mais freqüentes nas mais diversas áreas.
Uma das áreas com a qual a computação tem apresentado integração crescente é a área médica, na qual os sistemas computacionais têm auxiliado não somente em armazenamento, organização e recuperação de informação, mas também têm sido utilizados como ferramentas de apoio para a análise inteligente dos dados. Nesta palestra será apresentado um panorama geral de grupos de pesquisa que atuam em Bioinformática e Bioengenharia no Brasil e serão também apresentados alguns dos projetos específicos em computação aplicada à medicina com enfoque em problemas associados ao processo de Extração de Conhecimento a partir de Bases de Dados na medicina.
