    La biografia su Filippo II di G. Squillace è il risultato di una ricerca che l’autore ha iniziato in ambito dottorale e che ha conosciuto un primo sviluppo con la pubblicazione di un libro dedicato al Macedone nel 2009. Nonostante si tratti di una seconda analisi della vita di Filippo, il lavoro presenta elementi di novità, includendo non soltanto la storia evenemenziale, ma anche uno studio, condotto spesso in ottica comparatistica, delle fonti e delle letture che su questo personaggio nacquero a partire dal Settecento

    Air quality modelling near airports has received attention due to the impact of emissions from aircrafts near ground level. This work is part of the model inter-comparison study undertaken for the Department of Transport in connection with air quality near Heathrow Airport. Results formed part of a submission to the UK government in July 2006. The Emissions and Dispersion Modelling System (EDMS) was used. Our contribution required the setting up and running of EDMS for Heathrow Airport and its surroundings to simulate the year 2002. NOX, NO2 and PM10 were chosen for the study; these being of particular concern

    Il 26 giugno 2013 è stato raggiunto l'accordo politico sulla nuova PAC che interesserà il periodo 2014-2020. L’accordo prevede un’articolazione dei pagamenti diretti in sette componenti, di cui tre obbligatorie (pagamento di base, pagamento verde e pagamento per i giovani agricoltori) e quattro facoltative entro determinate percentuali del plafond complessivo (pagamento ridistributivo, pagamenti per zone soggette a vincoli naturali, pagamento accoppiato e pagamento per i piccoli agricoltori). L'analisi dell'accordo è stata condotta impiegando uno strumento di valutazione economica basato sulla programmazione matematica positiva (PMP). L’analisi dell’accordo sulla pac 2014- 2020 mostra un sostanziale ridimensionamento rispetto alla portata innovatrice della proposta della Commissione

    Strategic business value from big data analytics: An empirical analysis of the mediating effects of value creation mechanisms

    Big data are a prominent source of value capable of generating competitive advantage and superior business performance. This paper represents the first empirical investigation of the theoretical model proposed by Grover et al. (2018), considering the mediating effects of four value creation mechanisms on the relationship between big data analytics capabilities (BDAC) and four value targets. The four value creation mechanisms investigated (the source of the value being pursued) are transparency, access, discovery, and proactive adaptation, while the four value targets (the impacts of the value creation process) are organization performance, business process improvement, customer experience and market enhancement, and product and service innovation. The proposed empirical validation of Grover et al.'s (2018) model adopts an econometric analysis applied to data gathered through a survey involving 256 BDA experts. The results reveal that transparency mediates the relationship for all the value targets, while access and proactive adaptation mediate only in case of some value targets, and discovery does not have any mediating effect. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed at the end of the paper

    Architectural scenarios supporting e-business models for a DMS

    No full text
    Following recent studies and analysis conducted about Business Models for DMSs, this paper aims at discussing the interrelationships between destinations’ configurations, business models, and architectural strategy for DMS platforms. In particular this work draws on recent attempts aimed at matching DMS business models design with specific characteristics of target destinations, to extend the same considerations towards the identification of the appropriate technological architectures and enabling software applications. In this aim a framework for selecting the appropriate DMS architecture is presented. The result of this analysis will thus lead to the identification of a set of technological architectures according to the different configurations that a destination might present
