“…The technologies implied by IoT promote the development of an IoT society and the promotion of a new digital culture, where the opportunities to obtain online degrees and easy access to learning content in both structured and unstructured formats are pushing higher education institutions to make a digital turnaround that represents a drastic change in the traditional educational paradigm [25]. The challenges include the need for access to training content on demand at any time, the use and development of mobile applications for teaching and learning [33], ensuring the security of devices, services and the privacy of the IoT ecosystem [34], ensuring the quality of training and assessment of students, and, finally, seeking alternative strategies and resources to maintain the high cost of maintaining the IoT technology itself [35]. Based on these ideas, the purpose of this study was to explore the acceptance of the IoT by university professors for future adoption in higher education.…”

Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging technology in the field of education, which has not yet been consolidated. Acceptance and adoption studies of IoT in higher education are scarce. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to explore the acceptance of the IoT by university professors for future adoption in higher education. An online survey was implemented based on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), in a sample of 587 Spanish university teachers, aged between 21 and 58. The results showed that performance expectancy, facilitating conditions, and attitude toward using technology were influential in behavioral intention to use IoT. While the intention for use was similar between men and women and with respect to age. However, in the different constructs of the UTAUT model, the highest average scores were obtained in men and in teachers over 36 years of age. Finally, the findings and implications of the paper are discussed, showing empirical evidence on the adoption and acceptance of IoT in higher education in the context of Spain, highlighting the need for further research on emerging technologies in a context that is marked by COVID-19.

“…In fact, an evolution of La Scala DAM project mentioned in Section 3.2 was the opening of the historical-archive section, called ArchivioLaScala, within the institutional web site of the theater. 3 Even if limited and simplified with regard to the huge quantity of information contained in the complete archive, ArchivioLaScala represents the web-accessible page of La Scala DAM. The initiative addresses a worldwide audience of scholars and enthusiasts who now have the opportunity to access a relevant part of the cultural heritage of La Scala.…”

“…Thanks to the expected characteristics of 5G -namely improved bandwidth, reliability, and density of devices in an area -it will be possible to release innovative services for mobile devices rich in multimedia content, supporting multimodal interaction, and highly customizable depending on users' requirements and special needs. The applications are manifold, ranging from multi-angle and multi-track experience of opera to immersive navigation inside performances [3]. Materials from the past can be integrated with ad-hoc recordings and new digital objects within a unique environment, for both entertainment and educational purposes [3].…”

This paper focuses on music and music-related cultural heritage typically preserved by opera houses, starting from the experience achieved during the long-lasting collaboration between La Scala theater and the Laboratory of Music Informatics of the University of Milan. First, we will mention the most significant results achieved by the project in the fields of preservation, information retrieval and dissemination of cultural heritage through computer-based approaches. Moreover, we will discuss the possibilities offered by new technologies applied to the conservative context of an opera house, including: the multi-layer representation of music information to foster the accessibility of musical content also by non-experts; the adoption of 5G networks to deliver spherical videos of live events, thus opening new scenarios for cultural heritage enjoyment and dissemination; deep learning approaches both to improve internal processes (e.g., back-office applications for music information retrieval) and to offer advanced services to users (e.g., highly-customized experiences).

“…Music implies the exchange of multimedia information, at least in form of high-quality audio streams, in order to support professional applications; moreover, other data types are relevant in a music education context, including symbolic information (score, metadata, lyrics, etc.) and video streams, that are demanding in terms of bandwidth and latency requirements (Baratè et al, 2019b). All the mentioned data should be supported in order to provide a comprehensive environment for distance learning and distributed music performance.…”
