  • Trace-IT Train Control Enhancement via Information Technology (research and develoment project, Paolo Nesi, coordinator for DINFO) The TRACEIT project involves the intervention of DISIT in the phases of requirements analysis, specification modeling and validation of the ERTMS / ETCS and for use in traditional railways and light/metro solutions, even driverless. Aspects are part of the most important work DISIT, the development of autonomous driver known as ATO, Autonomous Train operator. TRACE-IT: automatic train protection, driverless trains, ETCS standards, autonomous drivers for railways and control system in projects as, management of railways control software for traing management on board and on the infrastructure, high speed trains (cofounded by Regione Toscana, with ECM) coordinato da ECM e in collaborazione con CNR Pisa.
  • ECLAP Best Practice Network ECLAP (Paolo Nesi as general project coordinator): EUROPEAN COLLECTED LIBRARY OF ARTISTIC PERFORMANCE, European Commissione Project ICT PSP, focussed on the study, implementation and set up of a Best Practice Network on cultural heritage content on performing art. The project is also going to experiment a set of technologies regarding semantic indexing and management, automated content processing, mobile distribution, multilingual indexing, social networking, multichannel distribution, apple applications, non linear story telling and annotations, semantic processing, integration with Europeana.
  • Mobile EmergencyMobile Emergency, (see web page at DISIT) an Apple App for iPhone. A tool to manage emergency in the hospital area. Developed in collaboration with the Maxi Emergency group on Mobile Medicine.

  • OSIM Open Space Innovative Mind: project (OSIM Service) has as main objective the realization of a portal on which the industries, students and interested researchers can pose questions with the aim of identifying the competences in terms of researchers and groups in the large knowledge of the University of Florence. In the literature, there is a number of systems that have been proposed to solve the above described problem of helping modeling knowledge bases, may be matching the demand (semantic query) against the offer (knowledge about domain). The accessible version is part of a wider project called Open Space Innovative Mind, which has been partially founded by ECRF, Ente Cassa di Risparmio di Firenze. The OSIM project is presently under development. download the DiCCoF flyer
  • MyStoryPlayer model and tools to operform and execute personal experiences as non-linear stories by following temporal and logical relationships formalized via semantic annotations. (DISIT page of MyStoryPlayer) In MyStoryPlayer, any media segment can be an annotation for another media element, the single media may be used as a basis to create an infinite number of media annotations. The user may navigate in the audiovisual annotations, thus creating its own non-linear experience. The solution has been studied and developed as a generalization of the models describing non-linear stories and navigation experiences, as one would appreaciate in navigatin on serials such as Lost, FlashForward, Odissey5, Doctor Who, etc. The solution may be adopted for modeling educational materials such as those that can be created for medical and theatrical environments. Also available on ECLAP. Download the MyStoryPlayer Flyer.

Mobile Medicine provides a lot of semantic computing innovative features: recommendations to users about similar users and content, perform fuzzy search on the whole knowledge base system, collect your content and automatically publish them on the network, provide an organizer for your content on your windows mobile PDA, etc.
  • RIDIRE.it project (FIRB project, Italian Minister, Protocollo: RBNE075J8Z Strategic Program in Linguistics ) on Dynamic Italian Language Resources. Creation, deployment and maintenance of a web-based infrastructure aimed at consolidating the teaching of Italian worldwide. RIDIRE.it will gather and mantain huge amount of documents assembled through crawling techniques. It will be structured following the best practices of the day in corpus linguistics and will allow users to access the most representative use of the Italian language from both a practical and a cultural perspective. The resulting infrastructure will offer web access to language technologies that will allow the user easy access to Italian language use in all relevant domains.
