Iconic framework for cooperative coding
2018
The description of an innovative framework built on top of Web-based visual programming environment is the primary aim of this contribution. In the last decade, many frameworks oriented to visual languages have been introduced in literature to improve the skill on programming languages, but at the best of our knowledge, no framework has been specially designed to support collaborative work on heterogeneous distributed environments. Therefore, SIRENE introduces a new framework in which beginners and experts can cooperate to develop algorithms by using a visual and iconic paradigm. Students, in the classroom or connected from everywhere, can be involved into the definition of the algorithm, c…
The challenge for economics from the new 'digital' economy: sharing and collaborative economy through the 'platforms neocapitalism' of the 21st centu…
2021
The so-called collaborative or sharing economy constitutes a multifaceted concept of increasing relevance and evolving in definition that will constitute the focus of our study. This article is presented methodologically as a macro-synthesis of the main trends of the economy, from its local and global spheres, in the convergence that can be glimpsed from the new phenomenon that we are dealing with of neo-capitalism based essentially on digital platforms and media. Some have already advanced it as turbo-capitalism or capitalism 3.0, in increasing expansion from the analysis of massive data from digital platforms. The resulting greater efficiency of decentralization and heterogeneity can be e…
Contrasting Automatic and Manual Group Formation: A Case Study in a Software Engineering Postgraduate Course
2021
This paper proposes the comparison of a group formation approach based on an evolutionary algorithm with a manual approach performed by an instructor with ten years of experience on this task. The groups were created based on the professional, psychological, and experience profile of each student. The results obtained demonstrated the algorithm’s potential, reaching an average similarity of \(83.46\%\) with the groups formed manually by the instructor.
La smart city nel nuovo paradigma collaborativo: input dal “Regolamento” di Bologna

In rete la cucina è politica. Alcuni modelli di analisi e uno studio di caso.
2013
Gastronauti e chowhounds, ghiottoni, gourmand e gourmet, in una parola foodies: l’attuale megatrend culinario deve molto alle pratiche di socializzazione su Internet. Di cibo, in rete, si comincia a scrivere fin da subito (i board di Chowhound, per esempio, aprono i battenti già nel 97), la qual cosa dice anche molto su quanto la “grande conversazione” sia debitrice del discorso gastronomico. Il cibo e le chiacchere su Internet si presentano, infatti, come intrinsecamente legati, classico binomio inscindibile. In tutto il mondo, blogger e storyteller culinari diventano, pertanto, autori di culto, in grado di generare schiere di fedeli lettori pronti a seguire il proprio beniamino ovunque, s…
Contribution of Multi-Agent Systems and Fuzzy logic to support tutors in Learning Communities
2016
The growing importance of online training has put emphasis on the role of remote tutoring. A whole new area of research, dedicated to environment for human learning (EHL), is emerging. We are concerned with this field. More specifically, we will focus on the monitoring of learners.The instrumentation and observation of learners activities by exploiting interaction traces in the EHL and the development of indicators can help tutors to monitor activities of learners and support them in their collaborative learning process. Indeed, in a learning situation, the teacher needs to observe the behavior of learners in order to build an idea about their involvement, preferences and learning styles so…
Human Technology : Toward the Second Decade
2015
The inaugural issue of Human Technology: An Interdisciplinary Journal on Humans in ICT Environments was published in 2005. The 10 volumes of two to three issues comprise well over 2000 pages. Upon starting as editor in chief in January 2015, I browsed through the archives and noticed that just over 100 articles had been published in the journal. Examining these titles, it is evident that they address a wide variety of topics. Nevertheless, four broad themes emerge: The user of technology, with such foci as user experience, user characteristics, usability, user interface, and, on a more theoretical level, cognition; The learner in a technological environment, covering aspects such as inf…
Collaborative argumentation through role-play by students on a degree programme in social services
2019
The aim of this study was to investigate the nature of collaborative argumentation by students enrolled in a degree program in social services. Students (n = 29) in a University of Applied Sciences participated in role-play discussions and problem solving on adolescents’ substance abuse. The discussions were conducted either online (15 students) or face-to-face (14 students). The data comprise the students’ asynchronous online and face-to-face discussions, which were analysed by identifying discussion fragments relevant in collaborative argumentation, and by comparing the results of the two groups. The results showed that the face-to-face discussions were more collaborative than the online …
Découverte et analyse des communautés implicites par une approche sémantique en ligne : l'outil WebTribe
2012
With the rise of Web 2.0 and collaborative technologies that are attached to,the Web has now become a broad platform of exchanges between users. The majorityof websites is now dedicated to social interactions of their users, or offerstools to develop these interactions. Our work focuses on the understanding of theseexchanges, as well as emerging community structures arising, through a semanticapproach. To meet the needs of web analysts, we analyze these community structuresto identify their essential characteristics as their thematic centers and centralcontributors. Our semantic analysis is mainly based on reference light ontologiesto define several new metrics such as the temporal semantic…
