    In this paper the author analyses how it is possibile to tranform a duty in an opportunity, that is, to gain business benefits from IT compliance implementation. The Finmeccanica business case give empirical evidence to the theoretical research

    Mapping Financial Performances in Italian ICT-related firms via Self-Organizing Maps

    No full text
    In this work, we explore the application of machine learning models (MLM) to the analysis of firms’ performance. To such aim, we consider a bunch of financial indicators on firms operating in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector, with attention to enterprises providing ICT related-services. The rationale is to highlight the potential of MLM to exploit the complexity of financial data, and to offer a handy way to visualize the related information. In fact, instead of performing classical analysis, we discuss how to apply to those indicators Self-Organizing Maps-SOMs—that are well suited to manage high dimensional and complex datasets to extract their relevant features. It emerges that SOMs are useful in clustering companies depending on multi-dimensional criteria and in analysing hidden relations in companies’ performances

    The Evolution of Information Systems Strategic Models: From IT Management to IT Governance. The FIAT Case

    No full text
    This paper aims to analyse the evolution of Information Systems strategic models during the latest 10 years, pointing out the passage from a management paradigm to a governance paradigm. The paper is divided into three parts. In the first part, the author compares the two paradigms - IT management and IT governance - finding evidences for this evolution in academic literature, professional standards and business implementation. In the second part, drivers for IT governance implementation and IT governance strategic models are analysed, trying to understand the main reasons for the evolution from the first paradigm to the latter and introducing a typical model for IT governance in business. In the third part, an empirical business case is studied, that is, IT governance strategic model in FIAT Group Automobiles, to support with concrete evidence the theoretical framework introduced in the previous two parts

    A track finding algorithm based on pixel detector for the ATLAS second level trigger

    No full text
    A fast track reconstruction algorithm for the ATLAS second level trigger is presented. The timing performance (3.5 ms for a jet reconstruction at low luminosity) is satisfactory; the transverse impact parameter resolution (75 mu m) is sufficient to perform an on- line b-tagging, and the full three-dimensional reconstruction produces good seeds for more sophisticated track searches.
