Francisco de Gusmão has just finished his MSc, on an interesting subject: how do different people "see" and "use" a city? Does living there vs. commuting, or being young vs old affect your mental image of a city? Do check out the Mental Maps of Lisbon page.
LIFE is a data recording format that allows users to record their location and activities in a human readable (and machine-processable!) way. It covers most common use cases, fromm stays at one location to information about the trips between places, semantic annotations, tagging, time zones, etc. Find it at the LIFE Format GitHub page (including a handy Python script to process LIFE files)
My PhD student Gabriel Barata defended his PhD, Suma Cum Laude! He is responsible by most of our Gamification of Education research. Congrats!
