M-Atlas 2.0: the DMQL. The new data mining query language
Romano V., Trasarti R., Ghelli G.
In the last years the researchers at KDD Lab have used the M-Atlas system for their mobility data analyses and contributed to expand the M-Atlas functions and features. After so much time, the original design of M-Atlas needed to be reviewed in order to understand how it could be adapted to improve the performances and ease the work of the researchers performing analyses. In the last months the M-Atlas Core has been almost completely redesigned in the way it connects to the PostgreSQL database and how datasets and software methods are managed. The new design of the software methods as Plug-ins makes it very simple to invoke a method. Now the old DMQL module has to be modified in order to interact with the new Core and to take advantage from the new design. Moreover, as the DMQL language can be used by data scientists to directly write DMQL code or to interact through the GUI or the Web Service which will generate DMQL code, we built a new intuitive language that was easy to learn and similar to other known languages.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2016

Database of female scientists at the 6 targeted Departments of UNIPI
Romano V., Natilli M., Fadda D., Rossetti G., Giannotti F.
The experience gained with the several funded European projects allows us to collect data on female careers but also to identify the context (at institutional level) as a crucial factor in defining the phenomenon of gender equality. The usual approach is to perform a survey or to ask the administration in order to understand how many women are employed at the different levels of the institution at a certain time. The institution obtains a snapshot of the gender equality or, if the study is repeated regularly, a sequence of snapshots that allows gender researchers to perform comparisons and better understand the trends. The aim of the Women Scientific Career Database is to integrate the study of gender equality in the structure of the administration of the institution, in order to build a permanent gender monitor that is automatically updated by the administration. This new approach allows a real time analysis of the gender equality within the institution and, as data are continuously updated, makes it easier to verify how different strategies, laws or regulations can modify the status of gender equality. In order to better understand how the career of a researcher evolves within the institution through years, a lot of different events have to be monitored, like the type of contract and its evolution, and scientific production. The analysis provides statistics aggregated at university level, at department level and personal level in order to give a global picture of the university status and to show how different departments present different behaviors with respect to the gender inequalities. The personal level aggregation wants instead to show how real women scientist can have a successful career. This report describes the realization of the Women Scientific Career Database, the data model, the acquisition procedures and the implementation of first family of indicators and their rendering through a navigable web interface.Source: Project report, TRIGGER, Deliverable D1.8, 2016

KDD Lab: datasets metadata census
Romano V.
As many other research laboratories around the world, one of the most precious resources is information. Methods and algorithms often need datasets in order to be tested or executed. Publicly available real life datasets are rare because companies and institutions want to protect their dataset's value or the privacy of their users. In order to better manage and publish the KDD Lab's datasets we decided to define a collection of metadata fields to describe the datasets build a dataset census in order to collect the metadata about KDD Lab's datasets part of the information collected can be published on the website.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2015

KDD Lab: Social media communication
Romano V.
One of the most important activities in research is dissemination: the best achievement will be useless if nobody knows about it. Nowadays Social Media became a very popular communication mean that allows people to share information very quickly with people that has similar interests. Consequently a research lab like KDD Lab needs to strengthen its web communication with a powerful social media strategy. There are lots of social media platforms that can be used, but using social media implies an effort in order to give the idea of an active community. We decided to select a few very popular Social Media platforms and to design the strategy in order to reduce the effort for the editors.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2015

KDD Lab: the new Drupal 7 website
Romano V.
Technical advancement in web applications and web formats force institutions and companies to quickly and frequently update their communication strategies. Websites, Social Media profiles, document templates should be frequently updated in order to give a positive, fresh, modern and dynamic idea of their activities. The old KDD Lab website was built using old web standards and technologies and the look was consequently a little aged. Moreover, the website was difficult to navigate on small devices like modern tablets and smartphones. The lack of a heavy structure of the information published on the website caused sporadic (unfriendly) updates and difficulties in the site searches. Only a small part of the KDD Lab activities was actually published on the website and easily searchable. A new website has been designed in order to: adopt a strong content structure; easily add and edit contents; automatically link related contents; improve site navigation; improve user interface; improve visualization on small devices.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2015

Master big data: the website
Romano V.
The Computer Science Department of Pisa University in 2015 organized the first master in Big Data in collaboration with Istituto di Scienza e Tecnologie and Istituto di Informatica e Telematica of CNR, which are members of SoBigData.it Lab. The organizers of the master in order to attract students and sponsors required the design and realization of a website as communication channel. To this end, we added a section to the SoBigData.it website [1] dedicated to the Master in Big Data. The goal of this website is to communicate to visitors: information about the Master objectives; information about the data scientist career opportunities; information about the Teaching Activities of the Master; information about the application rules to be followed to become a master's student.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2015

SoBigData.it: datasets metadata census
Romano V.
SoBigData.it groups some of the Italian laboratories that are working on big data. The partners want to build a European Research Infrastructure for big data and social analytics through the European Project SoBigData.eu. One of the main bricks of a research infrastructure is a data catalog where the users of the infrastructure can search for available datasets. In order to anticipate the activities of the European project, we decided to start a census of the datasets available among the partners. We decided to define a collection of metadata fields to: describe the datasets; build a dataset census in order to collect the metadata about datasets; part of the information collected can be published on the website.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2015

TagMyDay
Romano V.
One of the main research topics of the KDD Lab is about understanding human mobility and, in particular, how humans behave in a city. These studies are usually based on the analysis of GPS or GSM tracks that describe with high accuracy the movements of the subjects around the city. This kind of analysis helps to infer multiple "hidden" details like where is the subject's home and where he works. Other types of destinations of the human movements are a little bit harder to detect, as well as the transportation mean used. In order to build a dataset of the human mobility that includes the type of destination and the transportation mean used, we decided to ask directly the subjects to tag their movements. Thus we wanted to build an integrated system that allows people to voluntarily participate to a data collecting project to: register, track their movements, send their tracks, tag their movements.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2015

SoBigData - Fact sheets aimed at different stakeholders
Grossi V., Rapisarda B., Romano V.
This document reports a first stakeholder analysis conducted by the SoBigData consortium among its partners. During the first three months of the project, a set of shared documents has been defined and filled in order to provide an initial stakeholder analysis. On the one hand, the aim was to discover and take a census about the stakeholders already involved in the consortium. On the other hand, the goal was to identify a set of potential stakeholders starting from the activities provided by the partners. The aim is to understand who are the stakeholders already involved and how their needs are addressed and to identify a set of potential stakeholders starting from the activities provided by the partners. This analysis is required for writing a set of initial fact sheets. Currently, for this first deliverable, three fact sheet has been created: the first one is designed for the economy/business application field, the second one is conceived for computer science while the last one is targeted to social science application field. These fact sheets are published on the project web-site for downloading by users and others. Moreover, the fact sheets serve as hand-outs at events such as workshops and conferences. The fact sheets will be produced and updated continuously throughout the project.Source: Project report, SoBigData, Deliverable D3.2, 2015
