Quantum-Aided modeling and design techniques for advanced wireless network architectures
Full text linkThe next generation of wireless communication systems will be characterized by ever-increasing computational demands and complex data processing requirements. Quantum computing and quantum communications, underpinned by the principles of quantum mechanics, promise to significantly enhance processing capabilities compared to conventional classical approaches. This paradigm shift presents novel challenges that demand sophisticated strategies to ensure a suitable integration. As a result, this thesis focuses on addressing these challenges from anarchitectural stand point, proposing and analyzing various strategies to incorporate quantum computing into future wireless communication systems. Moreover, this work delves into the entanglement distribution problem with the primary goal of optimizing the teleportation rate, a crucial aspect of quantum communication efficiency

No full textThis contribution aims to present the interim results of an archaeological and archaeometric research on the cooking wares from the
central quarter of Nora (Cagliari, Sardinia) where a team from the University of Milano identified several Late Roman residences.
The morphological analysis of the different groups has put in evidence a low variation of the types except for their size. The
archaeometrical data show that most of the analysed materials may correspond to a local or regional production (with certain
degree of variation) of cooking wares widely used in Nora in the Late Roman Period. It is important to stress that petrographic
analysis shows that the compositional characteristics of the non-plastics inclusions are compatible with the surrounding geology of
Nora. This study of the LRCW from Nora is just a small part of a much broader analytical program on Sardinian Late Roman

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
