About
New technologies based on artificial intelligence and bioinformatics influence the role of people in society, the way of life, education, and business in almost all spheres, including maritime sector.
However, the positive vector of maritime growth and development should include protection of human rights and dignity, along with keeping ecological footprint within the limits of relevant standards.
This MECO 2024 Conference Session “Virtually Smart Systems in Maritime Business and Industry” is devoted to exchange of knowledge, experiences, and ideas within the scope of the proposed topics and beyond. The goal is creation of a corpora of new knowledge, including smart strategies and actions.
Developing discussion and collaboration among researchers, scientists, academics, professionals, and entrepreneurs across maritime ecosystem should bring research and education closer to the actual market needs.
The main topics of this special session are, but these are not limited to:
- Digitalization of maritime cluster
- Unmanned air/sea surface/underwater vehicles
- Sea traffic management
- E-navigation strategy
- (Smart) Ports and logistics

7th Mediterranean BioMedical Engineering Workshop (BioMed.ME)
Collocated to MECO’2024
Hotel Budva, Budva, Montenegro, June 11-14, 2024 Chair:
Prof. dr Milan Stork, University of West Bohemia, Czech Republic
About
7th Mediterranean BioMedical Engineering Workshop (BioMed.ME) is continuation and upgrading of “Special Workshop/Session on Recent Advances in Computational and Engineering Methods in Biomedicine and Rehabilitation”, which lasts from 2018. BioMed.ME aims at discussing recent achievements in development and application of the contemporary and emerging systems, technologies, and methodologies directed to study phenomena of, diagnose, treat, and monitor biomedical processes. In the recent decades this multidisciplinary field brought remarkable changes, paradigm shift, and fundamental scientific breakthroughs in the bioscience and the healthcare in general. Worldwide strategies and policies consentingly emphasize necessity of collaborative, emerging, enabling, and converging approaches to deepen knowledge, understanding and capabilities required for proper dealing with complex biomedical problems. Scientific and engineering advances, even breakthroughs, are clearly evident in biomedical hardware and software, signal processing, imaging, medical physics, tissue and regenerative engineering, nanotechnology, medical devices and robotics, as well as health/medical information systems, to mention just a core of the broad spectrum of corresponding areas.
In order to contribute to scientific and engineering community, as well as healthcare industry, we are inviting you to share your challenges and the current state of the art in the areas of your expertise, with supporting case studies of real‐world relevance to underlying phenomena and biomedical and health care applications.
The main topics of this special session, but not limited to, are the following:
- Biomedical Hardware and Software
- Biomedical Image Processing and Analysis
- Biophysics and Medical Physics
- Neuroengineering
- Biomechanics, Rehabilitation and Prosthetics
