MoDisSENSE

A Distributed Platform for the Development of Social Networking Services over Mobile Devices

MoDisSENSE enriches social networking services by exploiting the continuous data flow from the daily use of mobile phones. This flow includes data from user visited locations, contacts, calls and calendar combined with data acquired from the user’s social network (list of friends, profile and preferences). The project combines these heterogeneous data sources (geographic and social log files, user profiles and preferences and context information) and offers innovative services based on advanced searches and combined queries that exploit all these aforementioned sources. Furthermore, the project deals with the development and deployment of services that exploit spatiotemporal data generated by user paths.
