    Federating Specialized Digital Libraries
    (The Eurographics Association, 2011) Ronzino, Paola; Amico, Nicola; Niccolucci, Franco; Franco Niccolucci and Matteo Dellepiane and Sebastian Pena Serna and Holly Rushmeier and Luc Van Gool
    The paper describes a procedure for creating a joint thesaurus of Architectural Heritage (AH) based on existing ones. After surveying the most important repositories of historic architectonical information and the associated thesauri, the design of a multilingual framework incorporating the different thesauri is presented and discussed. Also a system to perform semantic queries on these architectural databases is briefly presented. The implementation is based on the combination of existing technology, such as SKOS, RDF, Linked Data and semantic queries

    A Repository for Heterogeneous and Complex Digital Cultural Objects
    (The Eurographics Association, 2011) Felicetti, Achille; Niccolucci, Franco; Franco Niccolucci and Matteo Dellepiane and Sebastian Pena Serna and Holly Rushmeier and Luc Van Gool
    The paper proposes a solution for a repository of digital cultural objects, which can manage complex data as 3D objects, videos and more, together with the related metadata. The repository is built with open source components and may be easily installed and managed. Basing on an example, interfaces are shown for the most common operations. The system allows for text searches, semantic searches as well as facet refinements. The proposed system can support a full-featured digital library for its modularity and easy personalization.
