WP3 objectives [M1— M48]

• This WP will design and implement applications of the

Nexus Information Space (NIS) capable of guaranteeing

the coherence over non-equivalent quantitative

representations of feasibility, viability and desirability of

socio-ecological systems in relation to the nexus across

different scales and different dimensions.

✧ SYSTEM: is the supporting technology that provides the data on

flow and fund, implements grammars (the expected relationships

between components of the system in a particular context).

✧ SPACE: handles the technical information system, the databases,

the GIS, the visualization, the info-graphics, and the video aspects

of MAGIC.

.

WP3 objectives [M1— M48]

• This WP will deal with technical aspects making it possible to

carry-out a quality check on the integrated representation

across scales associated with the chosen Quantitative Story

Telling.

• The WP3 will solve the problem of how to generate different

types of quantitative analysis (individuating relevant data and

combining chosen models) on the basis of the grammars

developed in WP4.

• Fundamental is the contribution of WP4 [M1-M12] leader

UAB with support of all partners, specifically the task 4.2:

Making grammars.

STAD is “city” in Dutch.

[Statistics, technology, analysis of data] is a “research city” of University

of Naples Federico II in the flat world where a new "citizen" can

aggregate from almost anywhere.

This city contains a lot of "buildings" to create and work out ideas, provide

statistical science, transfer technology, analyze data with a meta-

disciplinary approach, "crossing the bridge" towards other scientific

communities.

Tasks of WP3

Task 3.1: Data Management Plan (UNINA with support of ITC and

UAB) [M1-M6]

Define a Data Management Plan on the structured metadata repository

maintained by the consortium, the various methods of formalization used in the

different case studies proposed in WP4, WP5, WP6, and the management of the

data generated during the project, in accordance with the “Guidelines on Data

Management in Horizon 2020”.

Task 3.2: Identifying Data and Populating and Structuring

Databases (UNINA with support of ITC, UT, UAB, HUTTON, WU, UiB)

[M1-M48]

Identification of statistical, scientific and other databases at local, regional,

national and EU levels required for the chosen implementation of the NIS in the

various case studies and creation of a scheme for the deployment of a structured

metadata repository to be maintained by all partners in order to safely share the

data sources required to formalize the various grammars selected for the specific

assessments.

Tasks of WP3

Task 3.3 Supporting the Activities of WP4, 5 and 6 (UNINA with support

of ITC, UAB, HUTTON, WU, UT, UiB) [M6-M48]

Assisting the activities of WP4, WP5 and WP6 in the definition and integration of

different metrics, the integration of different analytical frameworks, the design and

integration of databases and visualization tools according to the chosen QST. The

experience accumulated during the project will be used to define a tool-kit making

it possible a quantitative characterization of different applications of the nexus

framework developed in WP4.

Task 3.4 Visualization (UNINA with support of ITC, UAB, HUTTON, WU,

UT, UiB) [M12-M48]

Development and testing of a system of integrated visualization of the quantitative

results about the feasibility, viability and desirability in the selected case studies to

be used for presenting the results of the project in the Nexus Dialogue Space

(WP2), and to be included in the Nexus Knowledge Hub (WP7).

Basic data repository to support the applications of WP4,5, and 6 for

use by all consortium members. To be in place by month 12, and then

gradually expanded during the course of the project

Deliverables & Milestones

WP3 specific activities we are in charge of:

Compilation and catalogue of existing databases: we are

hiring two junior researcher (one dedicated to data

sources and one to models and their surrogates)

NIS relational structuring: we will structure metadata

and schemata for integration of sources (e.g. CIM★)

Visualization and coordination with web platform:

past experience and sub-contracting the last year.

Develop adapters with the tight collaboration of ITC:

we already started to cooperate (active exchanges).

What makes a model useful?

Who defines the purpose?

GDP was created during WWII in order to measure

productive capacity to face the war – is this model

still useful to assess economic performance?

QUANTITATIVE CHECK OF THE USEFULNESS OF NARRATIVES

• A different way of doing science

• Using quantitative methods to check the usefulness

of narratives

• Quantitative tools are used as heuristic tools

• Beware of spurious quantification

Aim

WP5: quality check on the narratives behind policy

WP6: quality check on the potential of innovations

Using framework developed in WP2-4:

for real with stakeholders

Steps

WP5

1. Identify narratives behind directives

2. Interdependency among narratives - deliberating - MuSIASEM

3. Alternative narratives

WP6

1. Identify narrative of innovations

2. Discuss the potential - deliberating - MuSIASEM

3. Conclude potential

Workpage 5

Workpage 6

• What are the narratives within these policies, behind innovations? Nexus expressed?

• What are the aims of these stories and narratives?

• Use MUSIASEM to show why and where there are inconsistencies in these narratives.

• Bring in institutional analyses to show why such narratives persist (avoid information deficit approach)

WP5 & WP6

WP5 & WP6

• What are the policy/innovation windows that we are seeking to influence in our areas in the DoW

• 5 teams looking at the individual policies / and 5 at innovation. Who are in these teams.

• Content analysis and checking what they currently do (policy as designed and policy as enacted or current) via interviews of key participants.

• Opening up/closing down

Any other beneficiary may object within — unless agreed otherwise — 30 days of receiving notification, if it can show that its legitimate interests in relation to the results or background would be significantly harmed. In such cases, the dissemination may not take place unless appropriate steps are taken to safeguard these legitimate interests.

Any objection to the planned publication shall be made in accordance with the Grant Agreement in writing to the Coordinator and to the Party or Parties proposing the dissemination within 30 calendar days after receipt of the notice.
