S.C.

Or pining Love shall waste their youth, Or jealousy with rankling tooth. Nor house, nor fence, nore dovecote. In crustumerium stands.-Macaulay. Helm, nor hauberk's twisted mail, nor even thy virtues, tyrant, shall avail . . . Whether true or false, the report will be believed. To thee I have transferred all judgement, whether in heav'n, or earth, or hell. These are really cases of ellipsis, whether true or false' standing for 'whether they be true or false' Therefore, however, nevertheless, yet, now = French or as in: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber, else, only = but.

TakePlace was made with you in mind It's about ideas and innovation, creative perspectives, and solutions. We're advocates for change, because change needs friends. We explore complex systems, adaptive agents, modeling, simulation, artificial life, and complex (information, biological, and social) networks. We especially focus on the Web as a complex information network in which we leave abundant traces of our social and semantic activities: what we do, what we are interested in, whom we talk to, what knowledge we acquire and contribute. Our research spans from modeling the dynamic processes that occur on the Web (how information networks grow and evolve, how individual and collective traffic patterns emerge, how attention bursts are generated and shaped by social and search tools) to designing tools that mine the Web to build better search, navigation, management, and recommendation tools (where ‘better’ means more intelligent, autonomous, robust, personalized, contextual, scalable, adaptive, and so on).
