Automatic reconstruction of archeological fragmented objects is an invaluable tool for restoration purposes and personnel. In this paper, we assume that broken pieces resemble similar characteristics on their common boundaries, when they are correctly combined, of course. Bearing in mind that common boundaries preserve texture and geometry, we analyze features that allow the transport of charac...

RAMSES (Remote Archeological Mobile Support Enhanced System) is an outdoor application of mobile computing to eld archaeology, whose prototype has already been eld tested in Summer 1998 at the site of Poliochni in Greece. The requirements for both hardware and software are illustrated; the system is composed by a xed station, acting as object repository, and a few mobile units which input archa...

In this paper we exploit a volunteer-based paradigm for archeological aims. In particular, we present PetroAdvisor, a system supporting several fundamental activities to digitally preserve petroglyph sites. The system exploits a rewarding strategy to stimulate people participation to the project, so that those entering useful information gain free archeological data, tips on excursions and tour...
