A new EU Approach to the protection of Academic freedom: the Intersection with the Rule of Law
Full text linkEffects of graph operations on star pairwise compatibility graphs
Full text linkA graph
is defined as a star-
-pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) when it is possible to assign a positive real number weight
to each vertex
, and define
distinct intervals
, in such a way that there is an edge
in
if and only if the sum of the weights of vertices
and
falls within the union of these intervals. The star-
-PCG class is connected to two significant graph categories: PCGs and multithreshold graphs. The star number of a graph
, is the smallest
for which
is a star-
-PCG. In this paper, we study the effects of various graph operations, such as the addition of twins, pendant vertices, universal vertices, or isolated vertices, on the star number of the graph resulting from these operations. As significant applications of our findings, we determine the star number of lobster graphs and provide an upper bound for the star number of acyclic graphs. This is particularly interesting as determining the star number is notoriously difficult and is known only for a few classes of graphs. Indeed, for acyclic graphs, the exact value of the star number is currently known only for caterpillars [1]
A large-scale temporal analysis of scientific production across disciplines and countries
Full text linkIn this article, we undertake a comprehensive large-scale analysis of the evolution of scientific communities across different disciplines and countries, spanning the period 1991-2020. Our analysis uses data obtained from Scopus and involves a total of 15,756,144 authors, 74,847,508 publications, and 1,501,206,153 citations. Besides the overall research production, we investigate multiple disciplines at various levels of aggregation (namely, scientific sectors as defined by the European Research Council and Scopus research categories). The geographical focus of our analysis takes into account first the worldwide scientific production and then addresses the 19 countries that are members of the G20 group (thus excluding the EU).
Research production generally increases with time (in terms of authors, publications, and citations), both on a global scale and specifically in each country. The growth is not only in terms of raw numbers but also relative to population and gross domestic product. The gender gap appears to be narrowing, albeit at a slower pace for STEM disciplines than others. Although the United States started out as the dominant country in all research fields, its primacy has eroded constantly with the passage of time. The fastest growing emerging country, China, recently managed to overtake the United States, at least in STEM disciplines

Our findings reveal that notable differences emerge in project types, platform roles, and the motivations of backers and initiators across sustainable goals. This research provides practical guidance for enhancing the effectiveness of crowdfunding initiatives aiming to foster sustainable innovation, aligning them with sustainable objectives. It also offers insights to support the development of alternative, sustainability-focused financing strategies
Digital Transformation of Pharmaceutical Industry
Full text linkDigital transformation (DT) in the Pharmaceutical Industry (PI) is a topic of increasing scholarly importance but remains underexplored within management studies. This thesis, comprising five scientific articles, addresses various aspects of DT in PI, offering significant contributions to existing literature and proposing new research perspectives, in particular:
1.
To analyze the key technologies driving DT in PI.
2.
To develop practical frameworks for implementing DT.
3.
To integrate interdisciplinary and stakeholder-oriented perspectives.
4.
To investigate the impact of DT on sustainability dimensions.
The main research objectives are specifically addressed in the five articles, each focusing on a particular aspect of PI-DT:
•
Paper 1: Establish a theoretical foundation and identify literature gaps in the existing literature on PI-DT.
•
Paper 2: Develop a practical framework for implementing DT by integrating people, processes, and technology.
•
Paper 3: Explore the alignment between AI-driven and Stakeholders engagement
•
Paper 4: Investigate the relationship between strategic and cognitive readiness, AI Social Engagement, and the improvement of SDGs and economic performance.
•
Paper 5: Analyze opportunities and challenges for PI-DT deployment in practice
The five articles included in this thesis are connected by a common thread that explores how DT can transform various aspects of the Pharmaceutical Industry (PI), and how these transformations can be integrated into a broader framework of sustainability and digital innovation. The first paper, through a systematic literature review, initially covering 404 articles and narrowing down to 35 relevant papers, proposes a future research agenda to be pursued in the next years of studies. This agenda focuses on key technologies driving DT in PI and addresses significant gaps in the current literature of Operations Management, Strategic Management, Organization's Theory, and Stakeholder's Theory. This review offers a theoretical foundation for further scholarly inquiry and knowledge development of the overall thesis.
The second study highlights the transformation of organizational business structures and processes through DT, emphasizing the need for an interdisciplinary approach and cross-level perspectives. Using Action Design Research (ADR), a practical "Digital by Design" (DbD) framework is developed, emphasizing the interconnected dimensions of People, Process, And Technology dimensions. This framework provides practical guidance for designing and implementing DT into business processes, recognizing the significance of diverse organizational needs, individual uniqueness, technology integration, and cross-level empirical perspectives.
The third study addresses the lack of research aligning AI and stakeholder Theory with industry and technology-oriented, interdisciplinary perspectives, utilizing different empirical lenses. Based on 16 interviews with Italian and Indian PI experts, 14 relevant themes were identified, leading to the development of an AI-driven Stakeholder Engagement Strategies. This model integrates organizational structure, culture, and means, enhancing stakeholder engagement and providing theoretical insights for effective AI deployment.
The fourth paper emphasizes the relationship between strategic and cognitive readiness for digital innovation, AI Social Engagement, and their role in enhancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and economic performance. Using a Structural Equation Model based on a sample of 511 respondents in the PI, the study identifies that strategic and cognitive readiness improves SDG performance through AI Social Engagement. It also highlights the positive and significant relationship between AI user acceptance and improved economic performance through enhanced SDGs commitment.
The fifth paper, an analysis of the evolving landscape of DT in the PI, based on a systematic literature review and topic modelling, identifies the opportunities and challenges of future PI-DT deployment. This study explores the transformative impact of integrating digital technologies, emphasizing the potential of the metaverse to revolutionize collaboration, patient care, simulation, precision, and safety within the industry. It provides a foundation for further exploration and discourse in this rapidly evolving field.
Overall, this thesis significantly contributes to the understanding of DT in the PI by offering a comprehensive exploration of both theoretical and practical frameworks. Each article not only proposes innovative models and frameworks but also demonstrates their practical applications, thus bridging the gap between theory and practice. The insights gained from this research are instrumental in shaping the future of DT in PI and guiding the development of sustainable and innovative strategies. These strategies are crucial for enhancing operational efficiencies, fostering stakeholder engagement, and achieving long-term sustainability goals within the PI landscape. Through this work, new pathways are opened for academic inquiry and practical implementation, ensuring that the PI can effectively navigate and leverage the opportunities presented by digital transformation
Diritto per la ripresa e la resilienza: la pandemia da Covid–19 e l’impatto sul diritto e sul mercato del lavoro
Full text linkLa presente tesi dottorale si propone l’obiettivo di indagare gli effetti e le conseguenze che
la pandemia da Covid – 19 ha generato sul diritto, oltre che sul mercato del lavoro, al fine di
studiarne i cambiamenti in fieri che – rispettivamente - sia il primo che il secondo stanno
subendo, mediante la conduzione di un’analisi che mostri dettagliatamente come l’intero assetto
del diritto del lavoro, e delle relazioni che nell’ambito dei relativi rapporti si innestano, stia
radicalmente mutando, per effetto di tale dirompente fenomeno.
Tale studio, fortemente attuale oltre che assolutamente interessante, stante le evidenti
modifiche che tale branca del diritto sta subendo e subirà nei prossimi decenni per effetto del
dispiegarsi ultroneo degli effetti della crisi pandemica (e non solo, come si dirà tra breve),
assume un’utilità ancor maggiore, posto che tiene conto ed anzi muove la sua disamina
dall’analisi degli effetti che un’altra recentissima rivoluzione ha avuto e sta avendo nel mondo
del lavoro, quale appunto la “Quarta Rivoluzione Industriale”.
In ragione di ciò, dunque, nei tre capitoli che seguiranno, si avrà modo di approfondire
dettagliatamente il radicale cambiamento che il diritto del lavoro ha subito, sta subendo e,
probabilmente, continuerà a subire nei prossimi anni, in ragione del cumularsi degli effetti di
tali evoluzioni (rectius, “rivoluzioni”), stante la portata abnorme dell’impatto che la pandemia
- e di conseguenza il c.d. diritto dell’emergenza - ha avuto sul diritto del lavoro, già di per sé
scosso dagli stravolgimenti promananti dalla “Quarta Rivoluzione Industriale”
