“…The data and service layers are exposed as RESTful Web services, a Web development paradigm which allows user applications to access and manipulate epidemiological data. The system is based on previous research in the context of distributed information management systems (7,8), and it represents an evolution for the specific requirements of the veterinary domain. The user logic is implemented as a rich Web application using responsive HTML technologies, i.e.…”

Experts and international public health organisations stress the lack of surveillance systems for companion animal diseases and the need to implement such surveillance as a priority of the 'One Health' perspective. This paper presents the features of a system for the collection, analysis, interpretation and dissemination of data regarding the health status of pets in the Veneto region (Italy). The system involved the construction of a Web-based database containing the diagnoses of transmissible and non-transmissible diseases of dogs and cats made by veterinarians in their practices, hospitals, kennels and catteries. Each diagnosis constitutes a single record, also containing data on the identification of the individual animal and on several characteristics of epidemiological relevance. The World Health Organization (WHO) 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) for human diseases has been adapted to canine and feline diseases to standardise the diagnostic nomenclature. Software has been specifically created for online data entry and data management. The first results show that the main disorders were digestive (21%), dermatological (18%) and cardiovascular (11%) among 1,087 diagnostic records in dogs, and digestive (23%), dermatological (15%) and urinary (14%) among 289 diagnostic records in cats. The main causes of death are represented by cardiovascular (21%) and gastrointestinal (21%) diseases in dogs and by urinary (31%) disorders in cats. At present, no institutional surveillance system for companion animal health exists in Italy, and veterinarians joining this project and sharing the outcomes of their clinical activity are acting on a voluntary basis.

The increased digitisation of cultural collections and their availability on the World Wide Web has made access to these valuable documents much easier than ever before. However, despite the increased availability of access to cultural archives, curators still struggle to instigate and enhance engagement with these resources. The CULTURA project is actively addressing this issue through the development of a metadata-driven personalisation environment for exploring cultural collections and instigating collaborations. This paper discusses the state of the art in this area and the various innovative approaches used in the CULTURA project, with a special focus on how the underlying metadata helps to facilitate its semantically rich environment. An evaluation of the CULTURA project with students is detailed, highlighting its relevance for those without domain expertise. This is vital as the system needs to adapt and support a full spectrum of users, from professional researchers to interested members of the public.

“…Finally, in other directions of work, annotations are exploited during retrieval [24,25,26]. These approaches extend IR techniques in order to consider annotations and, thus, to retrieve the annotation themselves and/or the annotated documents.…”

Abstract. This paper describes GoNTogle, a framework for document annotation and retrieval, built on top of Semantic Web and IR technologies. GoNTogle supports ontology-based annotation for documents of several formats, in a fully collaborative environment. It provides both manual and automatic annotation mechanisms. Automatic annotation is based on a learning method that exploits user annotation history and textual information to automatically suggest annotations for new documents. GoNTogle also provides search facilities beyond the traditional keyword-based search. A flexible combination of keyword-based and semanticbased search over documents is proposed in conjunction with advanced ontologybased search operations. The proposed methods are implemented in a fully functional tool and their effectiveness is experimentally validated.
