Rigenerazione urbana dal basso nel sud-ovest milanese: Un'esperienza dal destino incerto [Urban regeneration from the bottom-up in the south west Milan area: An experience with an uncertain future]
No full textThe paper gives an operational and academic report on the research project entitled 'Urban regeneration, tradition and innovation: the Milanese Mesopotamia', carried out in partnership with Mesopotamia Milanese, an association founded in 2008 by businesses located in the area that lies between the Naviglio Grande and Naviglio Pavese canals to encourage and influence the process of urban regeneration in the area enclosed between these two historically famous canals. The paper focuses on urban regeneration from the 'bottom up', a subject around which a variety of parties are potentially interested in interacting and exchanging resources. The conclusions offer reflections on future outcomes of the process described, starting from the guidelines recommended by the City Council which came to power in Milan in 2011
Failure modes and mechanisms for VLSI ICs
No full textKnowledge of the electrical failure modes and of the physical mechanisms that cause faults is fundamental to implementing realistic fault models. Therefore, failure physics is the basis of effectual test sequence generation, and can give guidelines also for the design of testable and reliable integrated circuits. In the paper the failure modes and mechanisms of complex integrated circuits are reviewed. Faults are classified with respect to their allocation in the devices. Bulk defects, and failures in the dielectric layers, metallisation and package interconnections are then examined. Special attention is devoted to failures spurred by the reduction of dimensions for VLSI (scaling)
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
PROBLEMATICHE CONNESSE CON IL COLLAUDO DEI CIRCUITI INTEGRATI DIGITALI
No full textSi passano in rassegna le problematiche legate al collaudo dei circuiti integrati a grande densità di integrazione, con particolare attenzione all'inadeguatezza dei modelli di guasto più diffusi, ai problemi della generazione delle sequenze di collaudo e della diagnostica
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
