Notes:
- The Multimedia Resource Center at University Fernando
Pessoa is a research and development project, started in
late 1995 with the aim of leveraging efforts in several
related areas. The main research areas improve the way
humans use information and communicate. One major CEREM
goal is the creation of a multidisciplinar group to
stimulate projects on digital content and to produce
multimedia resources for course support. The CEREM is
also responsible for the management of information
technology labs and infrastructures at University
Fernando Pessoa.
- Beyond the creation of the CEREM was the need to
integrate the work of different groups like the Radio and
TV one, the Computation Group and Publications and
Desktop publishers group. Since their creation these
groups have evolved each one in their own direction. The
possibility to integrate all the work done is now a
common interest in part due to the growing evolution of
the digital world and also due to the sophistication of
the ongoing projects. For last (but not the least) CEREM
wants to be a consistent interface to the outside market
not just to support activities but first to make the most
correct specifications of “real life” human
needs on information and technology applications.
