classified in three main categories: the liberal, the reformist and the anti-capitalist

physicists and electrical engineers had little to do with the invention of the digital com- puter that the real inventor was the economist Adam Smith, whose idea was translated into hardware through successive stages of development by two mathematicians, Prony and Babbage.

1) all the desirable components of ANT, the philosophical ‘goodies’, merely ‘rehearse themes which have already been discussed at length in the Hegelian Marxist tradition’; 2) ANT has (problematically) abandoned the notion of Totality, ‘large-scale structure’ and power structures, and that such abandonment is based on the assumption ‘that all ill originates in universal, objectivist, totalizing master-narratives’ and; 3) that ‘any intellectual tradition which sincerely strives to be emancipatory can ill afford to do away with the idea of the human being’.

Informationvisualizationis a technique which helps people to quickly understanding the data.

Three components will be used to provide the editors with an overview of mainstream and social media by summarizing and visualizing, across news sources, languages and time: •Current topics, entities, and events •Information spreading across global media •Identified significant trends The solution will provide the editors with better understanding of recent developments in the news topics they cover and will indicate demand on the publishing market –what the publisher should write about becauseit is relevant to their audience and not yet or poorly covered

tracking relevant news is an important part of editors’ daily routine. Technologies developed within XLike project can improve this process by providing tools for detecting relevant articles across languages and media (mainstream, social media).

This scenario has its main goal on detecting republished articles in order to detect and control plagiarism.

Bloomberg.com provides personalized lists of suggested articles alongside each article. The list is assembled from the recent Bloomberg articles and custom fitted for the specific user, based on his/her history. In Figure1, the user's read stories are stored in their queue; based on that a suggested list for their queue is generated. The second task in Bloomberg use case is to extend the suggested articles by including external mainstream sources across more languages.

Article tracking is meaningful for STA because of two business cases. First, the main income of agency is licensing its content, and publish unlicensed material requires their attention. Second, knowing which articles are republished by their subscribers helps the agency at better understanding their market, and to provide better coverage for the events relevant for them.

The way people today consume news and learn about world events leaves much to be desired. Firstly, despite being interested in events, the actual "unit" of content that we consume is an article. If we wish to have broader, more complete and objective knowledge of the event we need to manually check multiple news sources and find different articles about the event. Secondly, although most articles about events answer the main questions about who, where, when and what, this information remains hidden in the text and requires the reader to manually extract it by reading the article. The lack of explicit knowledge does not only mean inefficient consumption of news for the reader, but also prevents us from having any kind of search engine for finding events based on these criteria. Lastly, our options for exploring related or similar events are very limited. News sources do sometimes provide links to related articles but they are typically bound to the same news source and contain just a few articles that were manually selected by the editors.
