Hi Emiliano, as I understand it, on an item page, this will show recommendations of other items from the same repository similar to the current item. We already have such a feature for XMLUI since DSpace 3.1 called "More like this" and based on the Solr more like this feature. Of course, you want to use different algorithms, but I suggest you reuse the UI bits and make it configurable which algorithm to use and submit your feature to us (if we accept it, it will lower your burden of maintaining separate patches). I, personally, would welcome such diversity. I also have a different recommendation method yet to contribute. Mark's suggestion to make a separate aspect is what I'd recommend, too. Unfortunately, we don't have any good tutorial for writing aspects, so you'll just have to look at existing aspects as examples. It would be best if the actual comparison algorithms could be at least separate classes, ideally pluggable, so that someone else could reuse the code later when porting the feature to JSPUI. Of course, feel free to ask any more detailed questions here.
