Authentication and authorisation in entrusted unions
This paper reports on the status of a project whose aim is to implement and demonstrate in a real-life environment an integrated eAuthentication and eAuthorisation framework to enable trusted collaborations and delivery of services across different organisational/governmental jurisdictions. This aim will be achieved by designing a framework with assurance of claims, trust indicators, policy enforcement mechanisms and processing under encryption to address the security and confidentiality requirements of large distributed infrastructures. The framework supports collaborative secure distributed storage, secure data processing and management in both the cloud and offline scenarios and is intended to be deployed and tested in two pilot studies in two different domains, viz, Bio-security incident management and Ambient Assisted Living (eHealth). Interim results in terms of security requirements, privacy preserving authentication, and authorisation are reported
YouTube AV 50K: An Annotated Corpus for Comments in Autonomous Vehicles
With one billion monthly viewers, and millions of users discussing and
sharing opinions, comments below YouTube videos are rich sources of data for
opinion mining and sentiment analysis. We introduce the YouTube AV 50K dataset,
a freely-available collections of more than 50,000 YouTube comments and
metadata below autonomous vehicle (AV)-related videos. We describe its creation
process, its content and data format, and discuss its possible usages.
Especially, we do a case study of the first self-driving car fatality to
evaluate the dataset, and show how we can use this dataset to better understand
public attitudes toward self-driving cars and public reactions to the accident.
Future developments of the dataset are also discussed.Comment: in Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Joint Symposium on

Decision Support Tools for Cloud Migration in the Enterprise
This paper describes two tools that aim to support decision making during the
migration of IT systems to the cloud. The first is a modeling tool that
produces cost estimates of using public IaaS clouds. The tool enables IT
architects to model their applications, data and infrastructure requirements in
addition to their computational resource usage patterns. The tool can be used
to compare the cost of different cloud providers, deployment options and usage
scenarios. The second tool is a spreadsheet that outlines the benefits and
risks of using IaaS clouds from an enterprise perspective; this tool provides a
starting point for risk assessment. Two case studies were used to evaluate the
tools. The tools were useful as they informed decision makers about the costs,
benefits and risks of using the cloud.Comment: To appear in IEEE CLOUD 201
Training of Crisis Mappers and Map Production from Multi-sensor Data: Vernazza Case Study (Cinque Terre National Park, Italy)
This aim of paper is to presents the development of a multidisciplinary project carried out by the cooperation between Politecnico di Torino and ITHACA (Information Technology for Humanitarian Assistance, Cooperation and Action). The goal of the project was the training in geospatial data acquiring and processing for students attending Architecture and Engineering Courses, in order to start up a team of "volunteer mappers". Indeed, the project is aimed to document the environmental and built heritage subject to disaster; the purpose is to improve the capabilities of the actors involved in the activities connected in geospatial data collection, integration and sharing. The proposed area for testing the training activities is the Cinque Terre National Park, registered in the World Heritage List since 1997. The area was affected by flood on the 25th of October 2011. According to other international experiences, the group is expected to be active after emergencies in order to upgrade maps, using data acquired by typical geomatic methods and techniques such as terrestrial and aerial Lidar, close-range and aerial photogrammetry, topographic and GNSS instruments etc.; or by non conventional systems and instruments such us UAV, mobile mapping etc. The ultimate goal is to implement a WebGIS platform to share all the data collected with local authorities and the Civil Protectio
