Collective awareness platforms (CAPs) are internet and mobile tools for collaboration, sustainability and social innovation that can allows drastic improvement of our lifestyle, beyond the standard economic model. However, their development is often driven (and motivated) by technology, while their adoption and usage characteristics are determined by the social interactions and can be affected by...
Previous works have analyzed the cluster organization of the cat cortical network using both traditional multidimensional scaling methods and evolutionary optimization algorithms. Interestingly, the evolutionary optimization principle of previous works is based on the modularity measure used to find communities in network with global algorithms. In this paper, we deepen this point taking into account...
The emergence and the global adaptation of mobile devices has influenced human interactions at the individual, community, and social levels leading to the so called Cyber-Physical World (CPW) convergence scenario [1]. One of the most important features of CPW is the possibility of exploiting information about the structure of the social communities of users, revealed by joint movement patterns and...
Pervasive computing research is introducing new perspectives in a wide range of applications, including healthcare domain. In this study we explore the possibility to realize a prototype of a system for unobtrusive recording and monitoring of multiple biological parameters on premature newborns hospitalized in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). It consists of three different units: a sensitized...
