MAPSEL
MAPSEL (mining, data analysis and personalization based in social aspects of e-learning) is a short 1-year research project exploring new techniques and tools for mining and analyzing social data in learning technology, funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (ref. TIN2009-14164-C04-01).
Information on the project can be found here.
MARIA
The project aims at studying and developing new techniques for analysis and measurement of electronic resource and information access features like those involved in the creation, management and evolution processes as well as those related with quality aspects.
Electronic resources and information access include learning objects, ontologies and other kind of knowledge organizations, metadata, etc.

- Metrics and measurement standards.
- Learning technology standards: IEEE LOM.
Project profile
- Duration: 2009.
- Funding agency: Comunidad de Madrid + University of Alcala.
- Reference code: CCG08-UAH/TIC-4178.
- Funding received: 18.000 EUR.
Integra
The INTEGRA project aims at advancing the state of the art in technologies for migration management. It is funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.
It is carried out by a consortium composed of fifteen Spanish companies (including GMV, Amper, Boeing and Isdefe, among others) and twenty-five research institutions, in the period 2008-2011.
IE is one of the participants in the consortium, working closely with Amper in technologies for C4ISR.

SUMA
SUMA (Service Integration via Standards) aims to develop a system integrating e-learning services through well-known standards, allowing a seamsless implementation of new tools and services in order to meet the current needs of both academic and business domains.
IE participates in SUMA with the development of OKI Repository interfaces for semantic learning object metadata repositories.
The results of the project are hosted at eduforge's project repository.
