Abstract Digitization is placing new demands on how we deal with incidents that threaten to undermine core societal functions and processes. Societal disruption will almost inevitably flow from the or failure of digital infrastructure given interdependence physical realms. also poses challenges for policy makers as use technology leads complex, cross-border networks geopolitical implications.

This paper presents an image processing tool, part of an image retrieval system, that provides digitization of songket motifs extracted from songket patterns. Songket motifs are acquired from their original songket fabrics and digitized into binary form by using several image processing techniques. This paper describes the digitization process and experiments conducted on fifty textile motifs u...

The action of a translation on a continuous object before its digitization generates several digitizations. The dual, introduced by the authors in a previous paper, stands for these digitizations in function of the translation parameters. This paper focuses on the combinatorics of the dual by making a link between the digitization number and the boundary curve, especially through its dual repre...

Digitization of the battlefield is the insertion of digital technologies across all levels and within both combat and support organizations. It depends on the integration of numerous elements including computer processing, advanced software, displays, sensors, communications, and position/navigation components. The advantages of digitization include enhanced command and control (including C2 of...

Complete digital recording of Cultural Heritage is a multidimensional process. It depends highly on the nature of the subject of recording as well as the purpose of its recording. The whole process involves the three-dimensional digitization, digital data processing and storage, archival and management, representation and reproduction. In this paper we briefly review methods for three-dimension...

In the contemporary society memory institutions experience great changes associated with digitization-the new method for preservation, education and access. Since in many cases memory institutions have the insufficient budgets, commercial promotion of cultural heritage can be seen as an alternative financial source indicating the possible niches, like cultural tourism, in the digital services m...

In this paper some current digitization projects carried out by the Mathematical Institute of Serbian Academy of Science and Arts Belgrade and the Faculty of Mathematics Belgrade are described. The projects concern developing of a virtual library of retro-digitized books and an Internet data base and presentation of electronic editions of some leading Serbian journals in science and arts, and t...
