schijnt makkelijk te leren programmeertaal te zijn op gebied van visualisatie.. misschien interessant?

Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to program images, animation, and interactions. It is used by students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists for learning, prototyping, and production. It is created to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context and to serve as a software sketchbook and professional production tool. Processing is an alternative to proprietary software tools in the same domain.

The PICSTM specification enables labels (metadata) to be associated with Internet content. It was originally designed to help parents and teachers control what children access on the Internet, but it also facilitates other uses for labels, including code signing and privacy. The PICS platform is one on which other rating services and filtering software have been built.

leuk. een game voor het simuleren van een online netwerk. met recommendations en attention tokens. misschien een redesign en dan

Ulises Mejias designed an offline game simulating online networking.

This paper examines user-generated metadata as implemented and applied in two web services designed to share and organize digital me- dia to better understand grassroots classification. Metadata - data about data - allows systems to collocate related information, and helps users find relevant information.

overview of agent theory and practice

The concept of an agent has become important in both Artificial Intelligence (AI) and mainstream computer science. Our aim in this paper is to point the reader at what we perceive to be the most important theoretical and practical issues associated with the design and construction of intelligent agents.

User profiles can be used to identify persons inside a community with similar interests. Folksonomy systems allow users to individually tag the objects of a common set (e.g., web pages). In this paper, we propose to create user profiles from the data available in such folksonomy systems by letting users specify the most relevant objects in the system. Instead of using the objects directly to represent the user profile, we propose to use the tags associated with the specified objects to build the user profile. We have designed a prototype for the research domain to use such tag-based profiles in finding persons with similar interests. The combination of tag-based profiles with standard recommender system technology has resulted in a new kind of recommender system to recommend related publications, keywords, and persons.

Today Cisco announced a new way of working sustainably called "Connected and Sustainable Work", designed to provide cities, employers, and citizens with a new framework for fostering economic growth, increasing the quality of life, and addressing the challenges of climate change. The announcement, marked by the opening of the first Smart Work Centre (SWC) in Almere, Amsterdam, highlighted the second Connected Urban Development (CUD) Global Conference, hosted by Cisco and the City of Amsterdam. The first SWC is located in the neighbouring Amsterdam community of Almere and provides space to workers in individual or group work settings, using information and communications technologies (ICT) while at the same time improving lifestyle, productivity goals, entrepreneurial models, reducing travel costs and impacts overall carbon emissions.

Tagging has arisen as way to enable users to contribute to a loose taxonomy characterizing web pages, pictures, products and other things. We propose tagging people in order to help individuals keep track of each other while contributing to a loose characterization of their friends and colleagues. "Fringe Contacts" is a reference system designed to test whether people- tagging is a viable and useful approach.

people tagging.. we need that too?

4 verschillende metrics worden behandeld; Link Analysis Ranking, Similarity Recommendation, Personalized Ranking, Contextual Recommendation.

The tools used to search and find Learning Objects in different systems do not provide a meaningful and scalable way to rank or recommend learning material. This work propose and detail the use of Contextual Attention Metadata, gathered from the different tools used in the lifecycle of the Learning Object, to create ranking and recommending metrics to improve the user experience. Four types of metrics are detailed: Link Analysis Ranking, Similarity Recommendation, Personalized Ranking and Contextual Recommendation. While designed for Learning Objects, it is shown that these metrics could also be applied to rank and recommend other types of reusable components like software libraries.

VisualComplexity.com intends to be a unified resource space for anyone interested in the visualization of complex networks. The project's main goal is to leverage a critical understanding of different visualization methods, across a series of disciplines, as diverse as Biology, Social Networks or the World Wide Web.
