Real-world creative processes ranging from art to science rely on social feedback-loops between selection and creation. Yet, the effects of popularity feedback on collective creativity remain poorly understood. We investigate how popularity…

Wikipedia articles about places, OpenStreetMap features, and other forms of peer-produced content have become critical sources of geographic knowledge for humans and intelligent technologies. In this paper, we explore the effectiveness of…

This paper investigates the evolving relationship between protecting Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) and blockchain technology. We conducted a comprehensive literature review, supplemented by case study analyses and research paper…

This paper examines how the rapid deployment of multi-agentic AI systems is reshaping the foundations of copyright law and creative markets. It argues that existing copyright frameworks are ill-equipped to govern AI agent-mediated…

In the 21st Century information environment, adversarial actors use disinformation to manipulate public opinion. The distribution of false, misleading, or inaccurate information with the intent to deceive is an existential threat to the…

Empirical evidence shows that co-authored publications achieve higher visibility and impact. The aim of the current work is to test for the existence of a similar correlation for Italian publications. We also verify if such correlation…

Scientific publishing is in a transition between the old paper-bound, static forms and the new electronic media with its interactive, dynamic possibilities. This takes place in the context of imploding library budgets and exploding magazine…

Augmented reality (AR) will enable individuals to share and experience content augmented at real world locations with ease. But what protections and restrictions should be in place? Should, for example, anyone be able to post any content…

One important goal in sustainability is making technologies available to the maximum possible number of individuals, and especially to those living in less developed areas (Goal 9 of SDG). However, the diffusion of technical knowledge is…

Possible for science itself, conceptually, to have and will understand differently, let alone science also seen as technology, such as computer science. After all, science and technology are viewpoints diverse by either individual,…

The debate on the Information Society shows large agreement on the assumption that the promised benefits will fully display only if the diffusion of ICTs and the Internet will involve all the actors of the socio-economic system.…

Many people engage in digital intimacy: sex workers, their clients, and people who create and share intimate content recreationally. With this intimacy comes significant security and privacy risk, exacerbated by stigma. In this article, we…
