• Anka Trajkovska-Petkoska, PhD: Polymer Composites (nano vs. micro): A Brief Review of Their Properties and Potential Applications – „It is very important to make a proper selection of the polymer, filler and manufacturing method in order to achieve desired properties of the composite !!!Conductivity of final composites is highly dependent on the aspect ratio of the dopant . Processing and mechanical properties are, also, dependent on the dopant structure."

   

• Samoil Samak, programmer, Microsoft, USA: Introduction in Memory and Pointers – „Understanding the model of memory which C++ offers, is core for efficient use of the resources and for proper understanding of the computer abstraction that programming language provides."

   

• Aleksandar Stefanovski, does a Doctorate in computer science, Assistant at George Washington University, USA: Vibrotactile Feedback for Enhanced Control of Urban Search and Rescue Robots – „The presentation system is intended for serial of empirical studies about evaluation of utility of vibrotactile display in tracing and rescue missions.Vibrotactile display will never fully substitute audio and visual display, but will significantly improve performance."

   

• Igor Lestar, Co–founder and CEO – Seavus: Moving Knowledge – „Means of production are no longer machines + technology + €. It´s a human mind + sharing the knowledge to create new values. The human mind is much more important than capital and technology."

   

   

• Vesna Stojanoska, does a Doctorate in mathematics, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, USA: Theory of Categories.–„The theory of categories is powerful language in mathematics, and more powerful in computer sciences recently. And even more, the perspectives it provides enabled the "revolution" in a lot of science fields."

   

• Peter Lampesis, Director of USAID: New Global Business Trends: The way of building partnership between those who are seeking jobs and business – „We are known forever by the tracks we leave."

   

   

• Valentin Gjorgjioski, does a Doctorate in computer science, Jozev Stefan Institute-Slovenia: KDD Process and Inductive Databases – „The world is not so flat. The world has structure, the data, the information in the world have some structure. We have to consider the structure, not to destroy it."

   

   

• Filip Misovski, Director of Product Management, SAP NetWeaver, Germany: Enterprise Software–Today and Tomorrow: „Why Prototype? –It´s better, faster, cheaper and if you're not failing, you're not pushing hard enough!"

• Peter Bock, Professor of Machine Intelligence and Cognition, Director of Project ALISA, Department of Computer Science, The George Washington University, Washington DC USA:

1. Can Machines Think: The Emergence of Artificial Cognition – “…based on this knowledge about the hardware and software of the brain, we may soon be able to devise a solution to test the hypothesis that a machine can have cognitive capabilities on a par with human capabilities, both intellectually and emotionally, albeit not human.”

2. The Neuron: Its Computational Processor and Architecture – “In fact, for illustrative purposes, this talk postulates a hypothetical super-neuron which does not exist per se, but accurately demonstrates the functional capabilities of all the different kinds of neurons.”

3. Confronting Kant’s Conundrum: What You See Is (not necessarily) What You Get–“ It would be well to honor Kant’s Cautionary Critique and apply these new insights to the design of our machines in an effort to optimize their interaction with their clients --- us.”

4. ALISA: Adaptive Learning Image and Signal Analysis - “Long-term research in Project ALISA focuses upon the extension of ALISA to successively higher adaptive levels of visual classification: textures → geometries → components → shapes → objects → scenes, using feedback from higher to lower levels for disambiguation and the assignment of symbolic value”.

5. Getting it Right: The Scientific Method in the 21st Century – “Following the Scientific method itself, four related topics are discussed: typical problems that inhibit the efficient and accurate conduct of industrial R&D tasks (Analysis); the clear definition of the goals and performance metrics of the tasks (Hypothesis), strict adherence to the iterative application of The Scientific Method (Synthesis); and the knowledgeable selection of statistical methods to draw meaningful conclusions about the achievement of the task objective (Validation).”
