    Introduction to the Naples Forum on Service Special Section

    No full text
    The 2015 Naples Forum on service, held in June 2015, was the fourth event of its series, gathering scholars from all over the world in an attempt to integrate service-dominant logic (Vargo and Lusch 2016), network and systems theories (Gummesson 2017), and service science (Maglio and Lim 2016). Scientific discussions were intriguing; all aimed toward creating synergies and common research paths (Mele et al. 2015, Pels et al. 2014). Service research in general, parallel to service science as a discipline, calls for both a holistic and high-level focus as well as reductionist and vertical studies and applications (Barile et al. 2016). In attempting to focus on both approaches, service scientists participating in the event engaged in diverse discussions, advancing their ideas and challenging their proposals with members of the service community. Among the presented research, two papers appear in this special section of Service Science, both focused on deepening value evaluation and measurement to advance models and tools for improved service viability. The first, “Modeling and measuring the consumer activities associated with value cocreation: An exploratory test in the context of education” by Botti et al. (2017) elaborates a measurement model for defining and classifying customer value cocreation activities to reveal the underlying dimensions of the construct and to identify real activities accomplished by customers during service provision. The authors propose a model for guiding decision makers in the elaboration of specific strategies aimed at fostering customer involvement in each stage of the joint creation of value. The second paper, “Determining service value” by Foglieni and Holmlid (2017), draws a parallel between value creation and value evaluation as two intertwined elements, positing that determining value dimensions means conducting an evaluation of service elements and processes. The presented framework is an attempt to shift reflection on value creation toward a practice-based activity, such as evaluation. The 5th Naples Forum on Service, to be held in Sorrento, Italy, June 6–9, 2017, is rapidly approaching, and we hope the service science community will profitably meet and debate once again (updates on www. naplesforumonservice.it)

    Governance for Sustainability in the ‘Anthropocene’: A Triple-Helix Model

    No full text
    With the term “Anthropocene”, scientists from various disciplinary domains qualify a human epoch characterized by the apparent influence of humans on the Earth dynamics “through a range of biophysical and social processes leading to complex global changes [...] with an increasing evidence that current “governance systems” too often are not fit for contemporary circumstances” (Schlindwein, Schwaninger and Ison, www.wosc2017rome.asvsa.org1). With the purpose of joining the debate arising from a critical reflection on the governance in the Anthropocene, this work aims to discuss the possible contribution of a Triple-helix based model of governance re-interpreted in the light of a systems view of sustainability and sustainable development (Pearce, Atkinson and Dubourg, 1994; Clayton and Radcliff, 1996; Barile et al., 2014), which also explores cybersistemic possibilities (Espejo, 2014, 2015; Espinosa, 2015; Schwaninger, 2001, 2015; Ison and Schlindwein, 2015)

    Light (Hyper-)Nuclei production at the LHC measured with ALICE

    No full text
    The high center-of-mass energies delivered by the LHC during the last three years of operation led to accumulate a significant statistics of light (hyper-)nuclei in pp, p--Pb and Pb--Pb collisions. The ALICE apparatus allows for the detection of these rarely produced particles over a wide momentum range thanks to its excellent vertexing, tracking and particle identification capabilities. The last is based on the specific energy loss in the Time Projection Chamber and the velocity measurement with the Time-Of-Flight detector. The Cherenkov technique, exploited by a small acceptance detector (HMPID), has also been used for the most central Pb--Pb collisions to identify (anti-)deuterons at intermediate transverse momentum.\\ Results on the production of stable nuclei and anti-nuclei in pp, p--Pb and Pb--Pb collisions are presented. Hypernuclei production rates in Pb--Pb are also described, together with a measurement of the hypertriton lifetime. The results are compared with the predictions from thermal and coalescence models. Moreover the results on the search for weakly-decaying light exotic states, such as the ΛΛ\Lambda\Lambda (H-dibaryon) and the Λ\Lambda-neutron bound states are discussed.The high center-of-mass energies delivered by the LHC during the last three years of operation led to accumulate a significant statistics of light (hyper-)nuclei in pp, p--Pb and Pb--Pb collisions.

    Lettura in chiave sistemica della dinamica evolutiva del concetto di sostenibilità

    No full text
    Obiettivo del presente contributo è fornire una analisi dell’evoluzione del concetto di sostenibilità nell’ambito degli studi manageriali di matrice sistemica con particolare riferimento al filone di studi che può ricondursi all’approccio sistemico vitale (asv).. Il concetto di sostenibilità, introdotto nel 1987 dal Rapporto “Our Common Future”, ha assunto, nel tempo, un ruolo centrale nella definizione delle scelte di governo, non solo delle istituzioni ma anche delle organizzazioni imprenditoriali e sociali. Adottare un’ottica di sostenibilità, infatti, significa, per il decisore, valutare le possibili alternative che emergono dalle rappresentazioni di vincoli e regole dei contesti di natura economico, sociale e ambientale in cui ciascuna organizzazione vive ed opera. Tanto premesso, i tradizionali approcci alla sostenibilità si sono spesso concentrati sull’affrontare ed esaminare tematiche riconducibili ad uno o più dei tre citati contesti in maniera separata , senza considerare le interdipendenze che, invece, tra tali contesti esistono. Ciò ha portato, in molti casi, alla definizione di linee strategiche e prassi operative che hanno tralasciato i possibili effetti che una mancanza di visione sistemica implica. Nella consapevolezza di tali limiti, il contributo traccia gli avanzamenti che il pensiero sistemico, e in particolare l’approccio sistemico vitale, ha fornito allo studio del concetto di sostenibilità, con specifico riferimento agli effetti sinergici che emergono dall’interazione e contemporanea considerazione delle istanze che provengono da ciascuno degli ambiti della sostenibilità, così come definiti da Elkington nellla triple bottom line

    No full text
    The ALICE experiment allows to study hadron production over a wide range of momenta exploiting the performance and capabilities of its dedicated detectors. In this report, the particle-identification detectors and techniques are shortly reviewed. The most recent results on the identified charged hadron spectra and ratios obtained in Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV and pp collisions at √s=7 TeV and √s=0.9 TeV are presented. In particular, particle production yields, spectral shapes in transverse momentum (pT) and particle ratios in proton-proton collisions are presented as a function of the collision energy, compared to previous experiments and commonly used Monte Carlo models. Particle pT spectra, yields and ratios in Pb-Pb are measured as a function of the collision centrality and the results are compared with available RHIC data. © 2012 American Institute of Physics

    A path towards an evolutionary interpretation of the educational service in Italian Universities. A systems variety perspective

    No full text
    The domain of Higher Education (HE) went through a revolution. People’s expectations and requirements for education has changed, as well as the competences required by the market. The demand for Higher Education services deeply changed, highlighting serviced offered not always can grasp the market evolution. The Italian Higher Education Institutions (HEI) often show a plastered situation as a result of national laws and regulations, and the incapability for understanding the ongoing changes. The proposed change in perspective offers the opportunity for supporting the emergence of conditions for an effective collaboration among the future researchers and practitioners for facing the variety and variability of emerging social and economic challenges. The main idea is that HEIs should provide to the students not only knowledge and competences, but they should also teach them ways the endowed knowledge and competences can be combined with the resources of the multiple actors that compose their social and economic environmen
