  • Smart museum of everyday life history in Petrozavodsk State University: Software design and implementation of the Semantic Layer
    2017 21st Conference of Open Innovations Association (FRUCT), 2017
    Co-Authors: Sergey A. Marchenkov, Andrey S. Vdovenko, Oksana B. Petrina, Dmitry G. Korzun
    Abstract:

    Since 2016 a smart museum of everyday life history has been developed within the History Museum of Petrozavodsk State University. This R&D project aims at solutions to the two important problems for creating a digital service-oriented environment for museum visitors and personnel: 1) offering personal recommendations on the museum collection with the use of Semantic ranking methods and in context of the user and exhibition, 2) collaborative addition of information sources and their Semantic annotation within the museum collection. Such solutions form the Semantic Layer of smart museum environment. This paper introduces our a) system design models for agent- based programming of museum information services, b) ranking models for Semantic data mining in historical and cultural heritage domain. Our software implementation demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed models in respect to the user mobility, service personalization, and collaborative work opportunity.

  • A smart space-based design of Semantic Layer for advancing museum information services
    2016 19th Conference of Open Innovations Association (FRUCT), 2016
    Co-Authors: Sergey A. Marchenkov, Andrey S. Vdovenko, Oksana B. Petrina, Dmitry G. Korzun
    Abstract:

    Nowadays many museums are being transformed to some “smart” variants: a cultural space in a digitally-equipped environment is formed where cultural heritage knowledge can be easily and collaboratively usable and creatable by interested visitors as well as by professionals. By using such innovative technologies as Internet of Things (IoT) and Smart Spaces it is possible to shorten the distance between museum exhibits and collected historical information on one side and consumers and providers of this information on the other side. In this paper, we study the smart museum concept for development of software that realizes connection between the involved actors and shared cultural heritage knowledge. Our research and development are focused on designing a Semantic Layer in the form of a software infrastructure. This infrastructure is a middleware on top of which such advanced museum information services can be constructed as personal visit planning, virtual exhibition preparation, and collaborative enrichment the museum collection. We introduce a suit of smart space-based solutions to create this type of software infrastructures. The generic solutions are theoretically analyzed based on the case study of the History Museum of Petrozavodsk State University (PetrSU).

  • A Semantic Approach to Designing Information Services for Smart Museums
    International Journal of Embedded and Real-Time Communication Systems, 2016
    Co-Authors: Dmitry G. Korzun, Sergey A. Marchenkov, Andrey S. Vdovenko, Oksana B. Petrina
    Abstract:

    The existing wide spectrum of embedded, multimedia, and mobile equipment provides an effective base for making museums smart or intelligent. By using the Internet of Things technology and the smart spaces paradigm the distance can be shortened between exhibits and their descriptive information on one side and consumers and providers of this information on the other side. In this paper, the authors discuss a smart museum concept and present a Semantic approach to design of advanced information services for smart museums. The central point is introduction of the Semantic Layer to create a Semantic network. The proposed approach reduces the Semantic Layer development to the following components: software infrastructure, Semantic Layer ontology, and mobile user access. For these components the authors provide design solutions, which are analyzed in respect to particular services for the History Museum of Petrozavodsk State University. The Semantic approach can be applied to development of many museum services as well as in various digital environments of museums and cultural heritage areas.

  • CAiSE - Providing the Semantic Layer for WIS Design
    Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics and Multidisciplinary Design, 2002
    Co-Authors: Richard Vdovjak, Geertjan Houben
    Abstract:

    Designing Web-based information systems requires the use of a thorough design methodology. Particularly, when the content of the system is gathered from different information sources available via the Web, the specification of how data is to be retrieved requires appropriate design tools. Concretely, a solution to the problem of how to facilitate the design of integrating heterogeneous information sources is needed, in order to be able to provide a uniform access to data gathered from different sources. In this paper we propose the use of the Hera methodology extended with the Semantic Layer, which concentrates on the integration aspect. The presented integration framework provides a coherent and meaningful (with respect to a given conceptual model) view of the integrated heterogeneous information sources.

  • HBIM FOR THE SEISMIC VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENTOF TRADITIONAL BELL TOWERS
    ISPRS - International Archives of the Photogrammetry Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019
    Co-Authors: A. Mondello, Raissa Garozzo, A. Salemi, Cettina Santagati
    Abstract:

    Abstract. The research proposes a novel and expeditious approach starting from direct and SfM (Structure from Motion) surveying up to H-BIM to provide a supporting tool to the knowledge of traditional bell towers, also useful for the seismic vulnerability assessment. The research draws on the possibility to enrich the H-BIM model with a Semantic Layer that takes into account the vulnerability indicators as defined in 2011 Italian Guidelines for the assessment and reduction of seismic risk of cultural heritage. Starting from 3D data survey, passing through the historical and constructive analysis, and the Semantic classification of parts, the workflow foresaw the setting up of a Semantic Layer creating parameters to be assigned to each architectural component of the building and according an expeditious check-list which focuses on empirical knowledge of bell towers. This kind of information stored in the model could be very useful in situations that require particularly timely decision-making, such as in the case of calamitous events.
