Dall’Industria 4.0 al Turismo 4.0: Come le nuove tecnologie stanno cambiando l’esperienza turistica delle persone
No full textOggigiorno l’avanzamento sempre più rapido delle tecnologie ha portato a significative trasformazioni in vari settori, e il settore turistico non ne è esente. L’emergere del concetto di Industria 4.0, caratterizzato dall’integrazione delle tecnologie digitali nei processi produttivi industriali, ha aperto la strada a una nuova era di innovazione ed efficienza. Tuttavia, l’applicazione di queste tecnologie nel contesto del turismo, denominata Turismo 4.0, è stata relativamente poco esplorata. In questo contesto, questo lavoro vuole analizzare le implicazioni e il potenziale vantaggio dell’uso delle nuove tecnologie, impiegate soprattutto nel dominio dell’Industria 4.0, all’interno del settore turistico. Attraverso l’esame dell’interazione tra digitalizzazione, automazione e miglioramento delle esperienze dei turisti questo lavoro intende fornire un’idea sull’impatto trasformativo del Turismo 4.0 e sulle sue implicazioni per gli attori del settore turistico. I risultati di questo studio contribuiranno alla crescente conoscenza sulla trasformazione digitale del settore turistico e forniranno preziose informazioni per i decisori politici, i professionisti del settore turistico e i ricercatori, guidandoli nell’ottimizzazione dell’uso delle tecnologie di nuova generazione per creare un ecosistema turistico sostenibile e competitivo nell’era del Turismo 4.0
Direct and indirect prospecting to detect and characterise sinkhole features in urban evaporitic environments
Full text linkNatural subsidence sinkholes (according to Gutiérrez et alii, 2008, 2014; Parise 2019, 2022), both in carbonates and evaporites, represent a severe threat to man-made structures. Especially when bedrock is mantled and in urban areas, the identification and characterization of these phenomena is always challenging. For this reason, multidisciplinary and multi-technique approaches are recommended and in detail, the integrated use of geophysical techniques (Electrical Resistivity Tomography, Reflection and Refraction Seismic, Electromagnetometers and 2D Ground Penetrating Radar - GPR) and most recently developed 3D GPR is strongly suggested. Thanks to the Agreements signed between the University of Trieste and the Geological survey of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region (NE Italy), since 2007 the researchers approached these issues in specific test site areas. From the studies in urban mantled evaporitic bedrock areas, emerged the supremacy of the 3D GPR jointly with reflection seismic, being the former able to identify with high accuracy and detail shallow deformations, and the latter the best approach to identify the thickness of cover materials, the morphology of the bedrock and the sinkhole location

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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
