A model of the dynamics of scientific activity

The Catania Research Group develops scientific researches mainly in Graph and Hypergraph Theory and Design Theory. These theories are of great interest not only for their contribution to Discrete Mathematics but also for their applications in Coding Theory, Statistics and Computer Science. The CRG participated in the international Panorama, not only for the developed researches (see the referen...

We wish to model common-sense reasoning in situations where it contains some of the ingredients typical of proto-scientific reasoning, with a view to future elaboration and proof of concept. To model this proto-scientific narrative, we employ the integrative formal computational machinery we have been developing and implementing for rational cooperative epistemic agents. In our logic-based fram...

The increasing commercialization of university discoveries has initiated a controversy on the impacts for future scientific research. It has been argued that an increasing orientation towards commercialization may have a negative impact on more fundamental research efforts in science. Several scholars have therefore analyzed the relationship between publication and patenting activity of univers...
