    Peri-Urban/Peri-Rural Areas: Identities, Values and Strategies

    No full text
    The first part of this essay introduces discourses on definitions of Peri-Urban/Peri-Rural areas underlining main existing and consolidated approaches and needs towards a renovated conceptual reframing able to emphasise the "transitional" values of these areas. A renovated approach needs a realignment of existing methods and solution in the different spheres characterising the transformation process. Based on the "ecotone" metaphor to emphasise specific characteristics of urban-rural transitional buffer, the second part underlines main opportunities offered by Peri-Urban areas in a Nexus and integrated approach. Opportunities of innovation related to the whole process of interpretation, design and implementation/management of polices and projects aiming an improvement of resilience of Peri-Urban/Peri-Rural areas and regional territorial systems (Colucci 2012)

    This is the preprint of the following paper: Simona Colucci, Donini F, Eugenio Di Sciascio (2019). Checking compliance of semantic web applications with RDFS‐semantics. INTERNET TECHNOLOGY LETTERS, vol. 2, 16254847, ISSN: 2476-1508, doi: 10.1002/itl2.87 Abstract: Web applications calling themselves “Semantic” count in the hundreds, yet there is no clear definition about what this qualification should stand for. Semantic web applications may range from those just using Resource Description Framework (RDF) as a data interchange format, to those taking all RDF-S consequences into account. Moreover, even with the simplest semantics, RDF data may contain blank nodes, which should be treated appropriately as existential variables—but might not. In this paper, we propose a general framework of yes/no experiments whose result tell, in a black-box fashion, how “Semantic” can be considered a given Web application. Our experiments measure the sensitivity of the application to syntactic variations of data which are equivalent under RDF-S-semantics. We show how our experiments can be run on a real application, namely, RapidMiner with LODExtension. We show how RapidMiner passes most of the tests (but for blank nodes), but highlight a weakness of the workflow repository-retrieval-exploitation that may make the application fail in some cases
