A method for managing personal data of a user of a user device is provided. The user device is adapted to have installed thereon an application (APP). The APP is configured to require access to the personal data when running on the user device. The method comprises creating a certification for the APP, the certification being based on a corresponding statement providing information regarding the relationship between the APP and personal data; associating the certification to the APP for certifying the APP; allowing the user to provide user-defined policies about exploiting the user personal data; checking whether the user-defined policies provided by the user are compatible with requirements of the APP defined in the corresponding statement. If the user-defined policies are compatible with the requirements of the APP defined in the statement, the method executes operations when the APP running on the user device requires to access personal data.

System for managing personal data

A system for selecting, through a mobile device provided with accelerometer sensors, items of lists that can be displayed on a visual display of an interactive display system, is provided. The system includes a receiver located at a surface of a user interaction station distinct from the visual display and adapted to wirelessly receive data from the mobile device when in short range communication with the mobile device. The system further comprises a processor adapted to collect acceleration data received through the receiver and generated by the accelerometer sensors in response to movements of the mobile device carried out when the mobile device is in short range communication with the receiver. The processor is further adapted to associate the collected acceleration data with corresponding selection values over a selection scale. The processor is also adapted to control the interactive display system to select items based on the selection values.

A method accesses information related to a reference entity through a display device. The method includes providing an ontology describing the reference entity and entities, the reference entity and the entities being classes of the ontology or being arranged into classes, the classes having respective properties; receiving information for identifying the reference entity; and calculating a network of entities out of the entities, the entities having relationships with the reference entity, according to the properties. The method further includes identifying portions available on an area of the display device, according to the classes of the ontology; assigning the entities to at least one of the display area portions; selecting a display area portion out of the display area portions; and displaying, on the display device, images and/or text data for indicating at least part of the entities of the network assigned to the selected display area portion.

A processing method for classification of contents in a domain that can be represented through a taxonomy includes generating a first digital mathematical representation of the taxonomy; generating a second digital mathematical representation of text documents different from the contents and containing keywords; processing the first and second digital mathematical representations for enriching the taxonomy, by associating keywords of the text documents with the first digital mathematical representation; generating a third digital mathematical representation of the contents; and processing the first digital enriched mathematical representation and third mathematical representation for classifying the contents in the enriched taxonomy.

Method and system for content classification

A method involves measuring and monitoring usage of data stored on a user device by software applications installed on the user device, the data being generated by resources of the user device. The method includes for each resource, assigning a resource sensitivity value, the resource sensitivity values of different resources being adapted to enable discrimination among resources based on sensitivity of the data they generate; for each application, calculating a respective application access level to the data by combining through a first predetermined function the resource sensitivity values of the resources that generate data accessed by the application; calculating a device access level to the data by the applications, the device access level being calculated by combining through a second predetermined function the calculated application access levels of the applications installed on the device; and associating with each application a respective indication of the calculated device access level.

A method of content recommendation, includes: generating a first digital mathematical representation of contents to associate the contents with a first plurality of words describing the contents; generating a second digital mathematical representation of text documents different from the contents to associate the documents with a second plurality of words; processing the first and second pluralities of words to determine a common plurality of words; processing the first and second digital mathematical representations to generate a common digital mathematical representation of the contents and the text documents based on the common plurality of words; and providing content recommendation by processing the common digital mathematical representation.

A method for exploring a catalog of digital information contents through a user apparatus is provided with a display screen, in which the catalog of digital information contents is structured according to at least two hierarchical tree structures, each including a respective hierarchy of nodes, each node corresponding to a respective category of digital information contents. The method includes: selecting a first sub-hierarchy of nodes of a first one of the at least two hierarchical tree structures, the first sub-hierarchy of nodes being built beginning from a selected category of the first hierarchical structure by selecting at least one among a first number of categories at immediately higher hierarchical levels in comparison to the selected category and a second number of categories at immediately lower hierarchical levels in comparison to the selected category; selecting a second sub-hierarchy of nodes of a second one of said at least two hierarchical tree structures, the second sub-hierarchy of nodes being built beginning from a destination category of the second hierarchical structure, the destination category being in relationship with the selected category, by selecting at least one among a first number of categories at immediately higher hierarchical levels in comparison to the destination category and a second number of categories at immediately lower hierarchical levels in comparison to the destination category; displaying on the screen icons representative of the categories of the first and of the second sub-hierarchy and respective relationships between the categories; and exploring the categories of the first and of the second sub-hierarchy reacting to commands imparted by the user through said user apparatus.
