DISIT: Distributed Data Intelligence and Technology Lab
1. DISIT lab and research group is one of the most active ICT labs of the University of Florence, metropolitan
Tuscany area with 20 years of experience. DISIT successfully developed a relevant number of International and
National research, development and innovation projects. DISIT also presents an infrastructure for cloud and
massive distributed computing.
DISIT research areas of knowledge engineering: data mining; smart, intelligent and
sentient solutions; content and knowledge technologies; smart cloud; bigdata.
DISIT Main research area and technologies are: data and knowledge mining, semantic computing,
natural language processing, artificial intelligence, big data, data analytic and reasoner (disambiguation,
prediction, completeness, causality, trusting, quality, correlations, inference,…), knowledge representation and
extraction, semantic models, linked open data, content protection, licensing.
DISIT research results have been successfully applied in solutions/tools for: social networks, social
learning, smart cities for mobility, smart cloud and intelligence, health care, brain information modelling and
analysis, business intelligence, mobile solutions, autonomous agents, content processing, automated
formatting, web based content aggregation, content based retrieval, digital rights management, collaborative
work, audiovisual annotation, crowd sourcing, multimedia middleware, ...
See most of the DISIT ontologies on http://log.disit.org
DISIT data and knowledge algorithms and tools are applicable on massive and parallel support (Hadoop,
AXCP grid, etc.) on which one can script processes and their relationships/flows that put in execution
processes, algorithms and tools exploiting tools and services (crawling, ingesting, in LOD, indexing, mining,
adapting, recognition, etc.), with plugins and tools of third parties.
Infrastructures and services, http://www.disit.org/5522
DISIT Cloud and data center with several servers and more than 500Tbyte storage redundant.
Open Data and Linked Open Data center
o Integration of more than 500 different Open Data sets and LODs coming from Tuscany area
(maps, ambient and weather, transportation and mobility, public administration and services,
statistics, point of interest, sensors, events, time lines, legislation, culture, etc.) see LOG
(http://log.disit.org ) and service map (http://servicemap.disit.org )
o LOD for Performing Arts in connection to Europeana on ECLAP project and service
