VICODI is a collaborative RTD project carried out by 7 partners from 6 European countries under the 5FP IST program of the European Union.
RIDemo is the author and initiator of the project and is acting as scientific coordinator of VICODI.
The goal of VICODI is to enhance human understanding of digital content on the internet. This will be achieved by introducing a novel visualization and contextualisation environment for digital content. The project will also provide an innovative set of multilingual contextualisation mechanisms.
The VICODI contextualisation environment addresses the management of search and retrieval as well as the management of information presentation, by:
1) creating a cumulative and open knowledge space that can be enhanced by its users
2) providing an innovative user interface that employs SVG for the presentation of information that has been contextualised with respect to LOCATION, TIME, and SUBJECT. European history is the showcase application subject that VICODI has chosen to demonstrate the viability of its innovative information structure.
