Title: Emergent Semantics in Wikipedia
Description: Represent Wikipedia's pages as a graph with connections' weight realized by means of a "social similarity" metrics and detect an emergent semantics in it.

Title: A graphical tool for folksonomy-based ontology grounding" or, shortly, FolksOnt

Title: Tagonto
Description: Tagonto finds its collocation inside the area of expanding folksonomies with ontologies. Its purpose is to overcome problems which arise from the lack of an underlying structure in folksonomies, exploiting all the help an ontology can give, providing related concepts (and with them related tags and contents) when a search for a keyword takes place.

Title: Semantic wiki extensions with context ontologies
Description: This project is aimed at extending a wiki system with context ontologies about relations between documents. The semantified wiki thus allows for the automatic creation of links between pages, following the relations that link them together.
