  ALOO is a general-purpose concurrent programming language based on objects and agents as first-class abstractions. It is a Concurrent OOP language where concurrency aspects (parallelisms, asynchronous programming, etc) are modeled in terms of agent-oriented abstractions. Or, it can be conceived as an Agent-Oriented Programming language not based on logic programming - like state-of-the-art AOP languages - but on OOP. The language comes with a platform (compiler, runtime) and an Eclipse-based IDE.
  ALOO is the most recent evolution of the simpAL project.

  #hm() is a prototype agent-based platform for the construction of Socio-Technical Smart Spaces and Smart Environments, starting from the control of an intelligent home to a wider Smart Living scenario, where home users are situated in space and time in the surrounding environment.
  The house is seen as an intelligent environment made of independent devices that participate to an agent society: following the Butlers vision and architecture, Home Manager aims both to enable a rich interaction experience for the user in the interaction with the smart house, and to anticipate his/her needs based both on the user's habits and policies, while respecting the general system policies which capture the global goals and constraints.
  The implementation is Java-based, developed on top of the TuCSoN agent infrastructure, and deployable also on low-cost devices such as Raspberry PI2.

  Developed in collaboration with the Trauma Center and the Emergency Department of the "Bufalini" Hospital in Cesena, Italy, #traumatracker() is a project in which agent technologies are exploited to realise Personal Medical Digital Assistant Agents (PMDA) supporting a Trauma Team in trauma management operations. This project aims at exploring the fruitful integration of software personal agents with wearable/eyewear computing, based on mobile and wearable devices such as smart-glasses.
  The key functionality of #traumatracker() is to keep track of relevant events occurring during the management of a trauma, for two basic purposes. The first one is about tracking, i.e. to have an accurate documentation of the trauma, to automate the creation (and management) of reports and to enable offlne data analysis. The second one is a first kind of assistance, in terms of the real-time generation of warnings and suggestions to be perceived through the smartglasses, by analysing and reasoning upon the tracked events and data. The system has been designed and developed using cognitive agent technologies based on the Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) architecture, as supported by the JaCaMo agent platform.
