> "When the cost of a technology drops significantly it not only
> becomes accessible to a wider audience, but their primary purpose and use
> can transform significantly. The session will involve brainstorming new
> avenues and applications for computing input output devices in the above
> scenario where they become cheap enough to be
> disposable"

> Abstract of Parastoo 's
> presentation: Design of a desktop tool that allows visualization and
> exploration of a network of documentations referenced by an academic
> paper, enabling exhaustive mastery of that particular topic. The objective
