The Research Days are an annual workshop focussing on the core competence of Lakeside Labs: self-organizing networked systems. We cordially invite you to The Research Days 2013, the annual workshop of Lakeside Labs and Alpen-Adria-Universität. For the 6th time, we will host international experts, local professors, and young researchers to discuss ideas and exchange experiences. The event is organized as a workshop, where invited talks from experts and targeted discussions take place. It will be at Lakeside Labs GmbH in Klagenfurt am Wörthersee, Austria, near a beautiful lake and Alp scenery between 8-12 July, 2013. We are happy to announce that this year's Research Days will focus on Multi-UAV Systems. Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are used with increasing interest in civil and commercial applications and by the scientific research community. Recently, research and development efforts have shifted toward using teams of UAVs for monitoring, surveillance, or disaster assistance, to name a few applications. However, the design principles of such a multi-UAV system still need intensive investigations. Ideally, a multi-UAV system is robust, adaptive, resource-efficient, scalable, cooperative, supportive of heterogeneity, and last but not least, self-organizing to realize its full potential. To achieve these properties, the physical control of individual robots, their sensor data analysis, navigation, and communication capabilities need to be integrated, which naturally brings together experts from many disciplines such as robotics, networking, and swarm intelligence. Research Days 2013 will include projects and research aiming at the following (not limited) key topics coordination of aerial robots (e.g. movement and task execution) mission planning wireless networking (e.g. robust multimedia streaming) aerial imaging with person detection and 3D reconstruction application in real-world disaster management

The Interreg IV project promtICT is targeted at developing the economy relationship and the competitiveness between the Austrian and Slovenian border region by increasing the co-operations among small and medium-sized enterprises (SME's) and Lead User from important lead markets. Following lead markets were selected: eHealth incl. eTourism ebusiness incl. eServices and eSecurity.

Taster day for girls at the University of Klagenfurt - Lakeside Labs support the initiativeWomen in technical subjects are still the exception. Although in the last years we can see a rising tendency. The initiative "FIT - Women into Technology" took an important part of this development. This year the orientation days took place again in the first week of February. The University of Klagenfurt hosted the event on February 1st. This project aimed to raise awareness among schoolgirls and young women of the opportunities for studying technical subjects at an University. The Center for Women's and Gender Studies are responsible for the content of the FIT project. Also researchers from Lakeside Labs were part of the event with a workshop. They presented a microcontroller-board which can control a commercially traded mobile phone and a microdrone used for disaster operation in future.

New products - new guests - new clients: under that motto, the "eTourism 09" took place on the 28th October 2009 in the Congress Center in Villach/Austria. Its aim was to motivate ICT and tourism companies from FVG and Carinthia to look for new business opportunities and cooperations across the border.

The Research Days concentrate on the core competence of Lakeside Labs - Self-organizing Networked Systems. The Research Days are an intensive one-week session with workshop character of international eminent scientist in the field of selforganization. Once a year international experts devote themselves to a special topic in self-organization.
