X-Learn is characterized by the following features: (i) it is highly subjective, since it handles quite a rich and detailed user profile that plays a key role during the learning activities; (ii) it is dynamic and flexible, i.e., it is capable of reacting to variations of exigencies and objectives; (iii) it is deviceadaptive, since it decides the learning objects to present to the user on the basis of the device she/he is currently exploiting; (iv) it is generic, i.e., it is capable of operating in a large variety of learning contexts; (v) it is XML based, since it exploits many facilities of XML technology for handling and exchanging information connected to e-learning activities. The paper reports also various experimental results as well as a comparison between X-Learn and other related e-learning management systems already presented in the literature.

The proposed system is HL7-aware in that it represents both patient and service information according to the directives of HL7, the information management standard adopted in medical context. In this paper we illustrate the technical characteristics of our system and we present a comparison between it and other related systems already proposed in the literature.

Th... more In this paper we illustrate an approach for clustering semantically heterogeneous XML Schemas. The proposed approach is driven by the semantics of the involved Schemas that is defined by means of the interschema properties existing among concepts represented therein; interschema properties taken into account by our approach are synonymies (indicating that two concepts have the same meaning), hyponymies (denoting that a concept has a more specific meaning than another one), and overlappings (indicating that two concepts are neither synonyms nor one hyponym of the other, but represent, to some extent, the same reality). An important feature of our approach consists of its capability of being integrated with almost all the clustering algorithms already proposed in the literature. Both a theoretical and an experimental analysis on the complexity of our approach are presented in the paper. They show that our approach is scalable and particularly suited in application contexts characterized by a great number and a large variety of XML Schemas.

It appears particularly suited in the present e-government scenario characterized by a huge amount of heterogeneous data and services, delivered by government agencies, that makes difficult to quickly answer citizen queries. In this paper we show that the exploitation of the Intelligent Agent technology facilitates the search of information on government data sources in such a way to completely and precisely satisfy citizen queries. Our system creates and maintains suitable profiles of involved users, representing their preferences and exigencies; in addition, it adopts suitable algorithms that exploit information stored in citizen profiles for producing recommendations.

The proposed technique is specific for XML, almost automatic and light. It consists of two phases: the former one selects the most promising pairs of sub-schemas; the latter one examines them and returns only the similar ones. In the paper we discuss some possible applications that can benefit of derived sub-schema similarities and we illustrate some experiments we have conducted for testing the validity of our approach. Finally, a comparison of the proposed approach with some related ones already presented in the literature, as well as a real example case aiming at better clarifying it, are presented.

First our framework extracts the inter-schema knowledge existing among involved sources. After this, it exploits this knowledge to construct a hierarchy representing involved sources at different abstraction levels. Finally, it uses this hierarchy to allow the exploration of involved sources. In order to better handle the complexity of its activities, the proposed framework has been designed by means of the layers architectural pattern and the Component-Based Development paradigm.

The typical problems of social network research become much more complex in a Social Internetworking context. In this paper we propose a conceptual framework, and an underlying model, to handle some of these problems, namely community detection, characterization and membership in a Social Internetworking scenario. In order to face them, we must preliminarily investigate a further problem, i.e. user similarity detection.

Our system is characterised by three important features that appear particularly relevant in this scenario; specifically:

To this purpose, it proposes a multi-agent system capable of suggesting to the users the most interesting services for them; specifically, these suggestions are computed by taking into account both their exigencies/preferences and the capabilities of the devices they are currently exploiting. The paper first describes the proposed system and, then, reports various experimental results. Finally, it presents a comparison between our system and other related ones already presented in the literature.
