Comparing green performances of Italian and German firms
WP 09/2012; This paper analyses the environmental efficiency of a sample of chemical firms located in Italy and Germany, which are included in the European Pollution Emission and Transfer Register (E-PRTR). The adoption of a common set of standards can open important way to compare economical and ecological performances of firms which must follow the same formal rule, but operating in different countries. The Directional Distance Function (DDF) approach is here applied to obtain global efficiency scores able to consider pollution in computations: emissions generally increase between 2004 and 2007, with a worse performance of Italian firms. Eco-efficiency indicators partially slim down that evidence considering both turnover and input usage, underlining a reduction of average inefficiencies over time. From a dynamic viewpoint empirical findings shows a most favourable trends in environmental TFP growth for German firms

Transaction costs and pharmaceutical clinical research, a Data Envelopment Analysis approach
WP 04/2012; Taking human experimentation into account, this work aims at estimating the relationship between transaction costs, which are related to the protection system of patients’ rights, and localization of pharmaceutical industry’s testing phase. Assuming that the competitiveness of the protection system is based on the time required to obtain an authorization for an experimental activity, pharmaceutical clinical research should be positively affected by a process aimed at internalizing the review process, if efficient. By analyzing said system with operational research, this paper concludes suggesting the potentiality of a competitive system of reviewers, that is to say, the efficiency of that internalization process is performed by medical centers in which the experimental treatments are proposed to subjects

Storage in HA: Manutenzione ordinaria e straordinaria (Cluster HA: Ordinary and extraordinary maintenance)
RT 041; This technical report analyses some ordinary and extraordinary procedures on high availability cluster discussed in Technical Report n.37, ‘Storage HA: active / passive cluster open‐source’. The interventions tested regarding the updating of the operating systems of the two nodes, adding space to an existing partition and adding a second disk to the DRBD replication. The procedures have been designed considering the minimum of interruption of service, in fact most of the operations are performed on one node at a time
