DIGISCOPE
SCIENTIFIC SUBMISSION FORM B
• TSI/MM, which works on real-time embodied conversational agents in collaboration
with LIMSI.
Finally, LCTI is part of three joint laboratories with industrial partners with direct interest in
DIGISCOPE: WHIST (with Orange Labs), BILAB (with EDF R&D) and UBIMEDIA (with
Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs).
Ecole Centrale Paris (ECP)
Ecole Centrale de Paris (ECP), founded in 1829, is one of France’s premier Engineering
Grandes Ecoles. ECP, in conjunction with Supelec, undertakes rapid development of both
research and education activities in modeling and simulation of complex systems. Advanced
interactive and collaborative visualization is a key aspect of this work, especially as multidisciplinary
research and collaborative engineering and design becomes pervasive. This can
only be undertaken in a close network with top research facilities such as the Saclay Campus.
ECP is particularly interested in DIGISCOPE for educational projects and activities to
channel engineers, Master or PhD students into advanced visualization, in close connection
with industrial and academic partners. It is also interested in using this advanced
visualization/interaction infrastructure to create a collaborative network around modeling,
simulation and industrial design research projects.
Associated ECP departments and labs include:
• Maths, TISA/Computer Science, Industrial Engineering, M2S Master, for education;
• MAS, EM2C, MSS-MAT, LGI Labs for research (~ 300 people);
• Supelec E3S research team;
• Space plasma physics and physics of planetary atmospheres: 25 scientists open to an
international community, including collaborative projects using virtuality concepts
with Japanese laboratories.
The MAS Lab at ECP mainly deals with mathematical and computing tools and methods for
the analysis, design and exploitation of complex systems. It is structured around projects,
including Scientific Engineering and Visualization, Information Processing and Information
Systems.
MSSMAT and EM2S Labs are both co-affiliated with CNRS and ECP. Research at MSSMAT
is focused on multi-scale advanced structural and soil mechanics and material science.
Research at EM2C tackles energy science in multi-physics and multi-scale experimental and
numerical approaches around combustion, out-of-equilibrium plasmas and transfer physics.
Université Versailles Saint-Quentin (UVSQ)
The participation of UVSQ in DIGISCOPE will be federated by the Observatory of the
Versailles-Saint Quentin University (OVSQ) on its Guyancourt campus. The OVSQ hosts 4
laboratories : LATMOS (Laboratoire ATmosphere, Milieux, Observations Spatiales), LSCE
(Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement), REEDS (Recherches en
Economie-Ecologie, Eco-innovation et Ingénierie du Développement Soutenable) and IFREA
(Institut Français des Recherches et des Etudes Arctiques), gathering more than 400
scientists, engineers, administration staff, PhD students, post-docs and visiting scientists.
LATMOS (UMR 8190), UVSQ/CNRS, (144 permanent staff, 27 PhD students) and REEDS
(EA 4456), UVSQ/IRD (35 permanent staff, 25 PhD students) are the partners Laboratories in
DIGISCOPE.
