In plenary discussions and five interdisciplinary streams the
conference
- inspects the novel ways in which global(ized) technologies
enable mobility (and require new modes of managing these)
- attempts to clarify how newly developed technologies contribute
to and assist the currently observable developments in
the particular field of engineering and, more generally, in labor
distribution and organization
- traces the influence of these technologies on the re-definition
of "the local" against the backdrop of "the global"
- gives space to historical considerations aiming at the disclosure
of precursors of technology-enhanced globalizing tendencies
- discusses the world-wide efforts of controlling and improving
body movement(s) for the target group of old-age people in
sport science / kinesiology and perceptual computing.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
