| | | myELeusis: myesis into Eleusis of the Past through Modern Eyes |
The project’s focus is to create interactive, personalised experiences for the archaeological site and museum of Eleusis that will “initiate” users, before, during, and after their visit, into the Mysteries that were taking place there throughout the antiquity. The combination of 3D digitisation technologies, virtual and augmented reality, digital storytelling and serious games will produce a series of modern interactive applications to enhance the site’s allure for the general public that will visit Elefsina, the Cultural Capital of Europe for 2023.

| | | Extreme data characteristics (volume, heterogeneity, distribution etc.) challenge the state-of-the-art data-driven analytics and decision-making approaches in many critical domains such as crisis management public safety, cyber-security etc. ExtremeXP will handle the complexity of matching extreme needs with complex analytics processes by placing the end user at the centre of complex analytics processes. Its main goal is to create a next generation decision support system that integrates novel research results from the domains of data integration, machine learning, visual analytics, explainable AI, decentralised trust, knowledge engineering, and model-driven engineering into a common framework.
