3. 1. Actors, objectives, state of the art and future development (a). Individuals: Author and project leader: Andrea Scotti (Fondazione Rinascimento Digitale, Florence; Istituto e Museo di Storia della Scienza, Florence) Co-authors and developers: Fabrizio Butini and Corrado Veser (Istituto e Museo di Storia della Scienza, Florence) Pinakes Text - Author: Andrea Bozzi (ILC - Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Pisa) Search engine, Pinakes Text, and PK Advanced Edition - Development: Paolo Ruffolo (ILC - Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Pisa) & Engineering Faculty for IT, Valeriano Sandrucci, Luca Romano Dep. for Software Architecture and Validation, University of Florence Project Duration: since 2005 Institutions: 1.The project is financially supported by the Fondazione Rinascimento Digitale which has been created as a no-profit institution within the framework activities of the Ente Cassa di Risparmio in Florence. 2.The promoter is the Institute and Museum for the History of Science in Florence in coordination with the Libraries Directorate of the Italian Ministry for Cultural Heritage.

4. 1.The overall goal is to facilitate both understanding the epistemological relevance of computational methodology in the humanities research/studies and to offer there within a feasible way to deploy it across different disciplines. 2.This implies to make available a public and customable set of tools to describe, manage, structure and publish all kind of information & research results concerning the cultural heritage in general and the humanities studies in particular. 3.To offer a coordination between existing repositories and develop a set of services to make accessible and moveable research results within a new perspective of authorship and intellectual property using a generalized standard model of metadata description. 1. Actors, objectives, state of the art and current user group (b).

5. 1. Actors, objectives, state of the art and current user group (c). 1.Pinakes 3.0 Base Edition that includes: a)PK Schema and Project administration Alpha version published in 2007 and available at the home page. The Beta version will be published within April 2008. b)PK dynamic Input interface Alpha Version published in 2007 and available at the home page. The Beta version will be published within April 2008 c)PK Text experimental version. The Alpha version will be available within April 2008. 2. Pinakes 3.0 Base Edition documentation and code is published since 2006 both on the home page http:// pinakes.imss.fi.it and on SourceForge.org. Currently all code is visible and accessible also on the Italian National Observatory for Open Source at the www.cnipa.it (Public Administration main home page).www.cnipa.it

6. 1. Actors, objectives, state of the art and current user group (d). 1.All Pinakes 2.0 projects published on the web since 1996 and visible on the web at the address: www.pinakes.org will be brought into the current version. Among them already:www.pinakes.org a)Panopticon Lavoisier (Works and Life of ) b)Parnassus Scientiarum (The Waller Collection) c)Theatre of Nature: works and life of Ulisse Aldovandi Are already transferred and undergoing a significant test. 2.Candidates that have submitted a cooperation act are: a)National Edition of G. Galilei including Iconography and scientific instruments - IMSS/MIBAC b)Work of Dante Alighieri - SDI c)Liz - Letteratura Italiana Zanichelli from 1350 - 1920 University of Rome d)Uffizi Library - Florence e)Gabinetto Viessieux - Palazzo Strozzi, Florence f)University of Siena - All archeological excavation, research data sets concerning Tuscany. g)The Medieval Philosophical Texts and manuscirpt catalogue - SISAL, Fodazione Franceschini, Florence

7. 1. Actors, objectives, state of the art and current user group (d continued). Since end 2007 and 2008 a new set of tools, produced in cooperation with other research bodies, will be included in Pinakes 3.0 OSI package. Among them we can list: The morpho-syntactical analyzer engine produced within in the cooperation activities of “Padre Brusa Center”, Universita´Cattolica il Sacro cuore, Milan, by Marco Passarotti - a TreeBank application - and the computational linguistic activities of the Karl University of Prague (Dep. of IT & Linguistics). This model will be crossed with that of TigerSearch by the University of Stuttgart and currently used from the unit of Greek Language Analysis at the Universita´ Ca´Foscari, Venezia, by Citti´s group. The applications resulting from a EU Project called “Beyond Text” which cross the morpho-syntactical analysis with the pattern recognition method in order to make also non-natural languages searchable (see ahead in this presentation).

Producit/produco) and a number of Tags concerning the attibute time, gender, number etc. to each word is associated a “afun” (analytic function) : Obj, Sb, etc.
