Adapting Gaskell: Screen and Stage Versions of Elizabeth Gaskell’s Fiction
No full textThis book offers a range of perspectives on Elizabeth Gaskell and adaptation. The contributors – Alan Shelston, Raffaella Antinucci, Thomas Recchio, Brenda McKay, Katherine Byrne, Patricia Marchesi, Marcia Marchesi and Loredana Salis – discuss the afterlives of Gaskell’s fiction, from the author as adaptor of her own work to the role of the BBC in re-inventing Gaskell’s narratives. The volume brings together a collection that tackles the remediation of Gaskell’s fiction from Gaskell’s own time to the 21st century, enabling her to join those authors, most prominently, Shakespeare, Austen and Dickens, who have received full-length book studies on adaptations of their work. The collection, as a whole, seems to confirm the notion that since the inception of film, the number of adaptations of an author’s work equates to the writer’s canonical status. No doubt, this book will prompt many more investigations into the adaptability of Elizabeth Gaskell’s fiction.

The Modeling of the ERP Systems within Parallel Calculus
No full textAs we know from a few years, the basic characteristics of ERP systems are: modular-design, central common database, integration of the modules, data transfer between modules done automatically, complex systems and flexible configuration. Because this, is obviously a parallel approach to design and implement them within parallel algorithms, parallel calculus and distributed databases. This paper aims to support these assertions and provide a model, in summary, what could be an ERP system based on parallel computing and algorithms.ERP Systems, Modeling, Parallel Calculus, Incremental Model
La "forma del borgo"
No full textNel paesaggio della valle d’Itria si colloca Cisternino uno tra i borghi più belli d’Italia. A Cisternino viene ospita da molte edizioni una tra le più importanti Conferenza dei " I borghi più belli nell'area del Mediterraneo".
Il convegno vuole ribadire e tenere alta la tensione per il rilancio dei borghi e dei centri storici minori collocati soprattutto delle aree interne del nostro paese. Tale problema si pone tra le complesse programmazioni socio-politiche, che dovrebbero coniugare le legittime aspettative di sviluppo socio-economico del territorio e la salvaguardia della intrinseca identità storico-culturale.
Questo testo è il contributo alla VI Conferenza "i Borghi più belli del mediterraneo" dal titolo "Abitare i Paesaggi" che ha avuto come scopo la promozione storico-culturale, turistica, ambientale ed architettonica dei centri minori dell’Italia tra i più “belli” del mediterraneo. La conferenza si è articolata attraverso una serie di conferenze ed incontri tematici aperti a studiosi, professionisti, cittadini, turisti, operatori del settore storico-artistico-architettonico ed agro-alimentare, con l’obiettivo di tracciare possibili e concrete strade per costruire occasioni confronto, di scambio sulle diverse pratiche di valorizzazione.
Una valorizzazione intesa come fondata sul riconoscimento di valori identitari dei diversi paesaggi, valore concreto e paradigmatico dei diversi luoghi dell’abitare
About Parallel Programming: Paradigms, Parallel Execution and Collaborative Systems
No full textIn the last years, there were made efforts for delineation of a stabile and unitary frame, where the problems of logical parallel processing must find solutions at least at the level of imperative languages. The results obtained by now are not at the level of the made efforts. This paper wants to be a little contribution at these efforts. We propose an overview in parallel programming, parallel execution and collaborative systems.Parallel Programming, Parallel Execution, Collaborative systems, Collaborative parallel execution
AN E-BROKERAGE APPROACH BASED ON MULTI-AGENT TECHNOLOGY
No full textIn this paper the author shows the importance of multi-agent system in the e-commerce domain, specially for brokerage. He also propose an agent-based architecture for brokerage and a structure for the intelligent broker. The structure may be seen like a multi-agent system, having intelligent agents that are doing specific tasks for brokerage activity. In the end, conclusions reveal some aspects that may be start points for future researches.E-commerce, intelligent agent, brokerage, multi-agent systems.
Harmoniae belli: les sonorités de la guerre dans l'oeuvre de Louis-Ferdinand Céline
No full textL'articolo analizza le onomatopee presenti nell'opera di Louis-Ferdinand Céline, rilevandone il ruolo fondamentale nel costruire la "chronique du réel". Viene così dimostrato come l'intera opera del controverso scrittore francese possa essere definita una "oto-fiction"
