Governmental and non-profit institutions have increasingly created data dashboards based on open datasets to increase transparency and encourage citizen participation. Two limitations have hampered these efforts. First, raw datasets are often complex and difficult to decipher for non-specialists. Second, software to visualize trends within the data is expensive. For several of these systems, tools specifically for geovisualization are underdeveloped. In this presentation, we describe how Shiny, a data visualization system developed by RStudio, provides solutions to both issues. Shiny harnesses a variety of existing tools such as Leaflet, Plotly, and Highcharts, and encourages users to interact and explore datasets. As it runs on the free and open source R software, Shiny's cost is also minimal. We use two case studies to describe how Shiny provides an accessible way to facilitate data exploration for public audiences.

Answer:)
1.Document Collaboration: These tools provide the ability to not just share a document with others, but to actively work on it together, in real time. Google Docs is a well known example, but there are many other variations toGoogle Docs.
2. Profiles: We use to call them Employee Directories and had deep discussions about what information to capture in a user\'s profile. But profiles are much more today, enabling us to share details about ourselves, our interests, our knowledge and expertise, and much more.
3. Blogs and Wikis: Pretty standard stuff these days really. Blogs let us share information and knowledge and allow people to respond via comments, tagging and rating. Wikis allow multiple people to contribute to a subject.
4. Microblogging: Twitter and Yammer are the most notable microbloggingtechnologies, but there are other vendors like SocialText, NewsGatorand others who focus strongly on this capability. Sometimes also called an activity feed, you can let people know what you are working on (manually or via automation), discuss documents, projects, etc, and at the same time ask for help to the general community.
5. Communities: These are groupings of capabilities like those listed above set up for projects, communities of interest or practices, or around other topics and themes. There are many different types of communities, open or private, internal, external, mixed.
6. Calendars: Shared calendars allow you to have one calendar for all those involved in a project.
7. Idea Management: Also known as innovation management. These tools provide the ability for employees to participate in generating ideas for things like products and services, ways to improve existing products and services, business processes, etc..
8. Social Networks: How many times have you heard \"Facebook for the enterprise\". Social Networks enable employees to work together and play together. A prime example:Salesforce.com\'s Chatter.
9. Social Knowledge Networks: SKNs are tools that provide a place to share and find the organization\'s knowledge, pulling content from across the organization into a single location to share and collaboration. SKNs are specialized communities.
10. Web Conferencing: No more need to travel with the availability of numerous web conferencing tools.
11. User generated content: There are any number of tools to allow users to submit content, both moderated or un-moderated.

Collective Intelligence and Online Deliberation Platforms for Citizen Engagem...Anna De Liddo
This is the presentation of the keynote I gave to the The "Software Codes of Democracy: Web Platforms for New Politics Workshop, which was held in Milan, Italy 13-15 Sept 2013 http://codicidellademocrazia.partecipate.it/
Abstract
Social media are increasingly used to support online debate and facilitate citizens’ engagement in policy and decision-making. Nevertheless the online dialogue spaces we see on the Web today typically provide flat listings of comments, or threads that can be viewed by ‘subject’ line. These are fundamentally chronological views which offer no insight into the logical structure of the ideas, such as the coherence or evidential basis of an argument. This hampers both quality of citizens’ participation and effective assessment of the state of the debate.
Within the landscape of existing community debate and ideation tools, the talk will introduce a new class of emerging online deliberation platforms – coming from research on Hypermedia, Collective Intelligence and Argumentation – that enable more structured, engaging and transparent online deliberation processes.
The talk will focus on the description of some of these technologies and summarise research studies in which they have been used to effectively support online deliberation in the Education, Healthcare and Public sector.
The talk will conclude proposing reflections and future research on collective intelligence and online deliberation platforms to socially innovate and to re-engage citizens with the democratic process.

HADOOP based Recommendation Algorithm for Micro-video URLdbpublications
In the recent years usage social media applications pervade in our daily life which makes the Social Networking Sites (SNSs) being dependent on users for content generation. Considering user interest, contents produced by individual SNSs significantly leaves some of the interest based content undiscovered. This led to facilitate features such as “like”, “share”, “hashtags” functions to deliver the content from one platform to another platform. These allowed users to interact with multiple SNSs but limited to receive contents for separate SNSs. Although Open Identity allowed users for single sign-in in multiple platforms, it still remained to target multiple platforms. A Unified Access Model is proposed to internet-based-content modeling where the content for the users could be images or videos or text. Videos of short length termed as “micro-videos” are more popular both for the viewers and also the producers. The work carried out provides a recommendation algorithm for micro-video url, which compared to traditional recommendation algorithms such as content based recommendation, the big data uses parallel computing framework. High performance computing is achieved by using slope one algorithm that uses Mapreduce and Hadoop techniques. Hence, the proposed recommendation system for micro-video url can achieve high performance parallel computing, which can be used by the producers and viewers.
For the last 7 years, Educause and the New Media Consortium identify six technologies each year that could impact teaching and learning, research, and creativity in higher education. Along with doing so, they then place them on a timeline which predicts
the adoption of those technologies on a timeline from less than year.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.
About Potato, The scientific name of the plant is Solanum tuberosum (L).Christina Parmionova
The potato is a starchy root vegetable native to the Americas that is consumed as a staple food in many parts of the world. Potatoes are tubers of the plant Solanum tuberosum, a perennial in the nightshade family Solanaceae. Wild potato species can be found from the southern United States to southern Chile
Synopsis (short abstract) In December 2023, the UN General Assembly proclaimed 30 May as the International Day of Potato.
