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).

MS15 Data Repository Responsible: 7 – UNINA month 12
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).

a TRABANT and a FERRARI?
NO WAY!
It does not provide enough information to either
those interested in buying a TRABANT, nor
those interested in buying a FERRARI

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

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
