About us

Hi!

I am Antonina Dattolo, I am the founder and head of the SASWEB Lab, a research lab  dedicated to Semantic, Adaptive and Social Web and located  at the Department of Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics of the University of Udine, Italy; since 2006, fascinated by zz-structures and by the revolutionary ideas of Ted Nelson, I started to work, collaborating with other researchers, on zz-structures, providing for them a formal description, expanding their view’s mechanisms,  modelling and applying them  on concrete case studies and specialized topics, such as:

  • e-learning, concept maps and grid systems, with Flaminia Luccio, University Ca’ Foscari of Venice, Italy;  we proposed also a formal description of these structures;
  • conceptul spaces, recommending systems, digital libraries, and folksonomies, with Felice Ferrara, Emanuela Pitassi, and Carlo Tasso, University of Udine, Italy;
  • cultural heritage, and tourist mobile guides – with Flaminia Luccio, University Ca’ Foscari of Venice, Italy, and Emanuela Pitassi, Alessio Onza, Andrea Urgolo, University of Udine, Italy;
  • electronic music – with Sergio Canazza, University of Padua, Italy;
  • sentiment analysis, with Paolo Casoto and Carlo Tasso, University of Udine, Italy;
  • graphical visualization for  bibliographies and  innovative teaching methodologies, with Marco Corbatto, University of Udine, Italy.  Currently we are dedicating a lot of energy to two projects: VisualBib and AppInventory.

During the last years, we collected  the existing bibliography on zz-structure; this website has the aim to share  with the scientific community and take update all the papers on zz-structures and their metadata.

For this reason, we created a mailing list to offer interested researchers the possibility to stay updated with the bibliography  and all the news  on zz-structures and to get in touch with other researchers which are published or are working on them.
This website maintains the update list of all papers on zz-structures, and proposes for them an interwingled narrative chart; this alternative graphical representation has been programmed by Marco Corbatto, PhD student in Computer Science at Department of Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics (DMIF) of the University of Udine.

The first version of this website has been realized by  four students of  my course of Web Technologies of the master’s degree in Integrated Communication for Business and Organizations, University of Udine: Martina Arbusti, Ester Marchesini, Marija Miljkovic, Katarina Odar; then it has been updated and is update by Marco Corbatto.
