L’esperienza dei moduli formativi in materia economico-aziendale all’Università di Trieste nel triennio 2015-2017
No full textQuesto contributo ha l’obiettivo di presentare la prima esperienza di organizzazione e realizzazione dei Moduli Formativi in materia di economia e gestione aziendale dell’Università di Trieste, realizzati nel mese di settembre degli anni 2015, 2016 e 2017. Questi Moduli, coordinati da Patrizia de Luca (DEAMS – UniTS), sono stati svolti con la collaborazione del Prof. Girolamo Piccolo (Istituto “L. da Vinci – G.R. Carli – S. de Sandrinelli”, Trieste.) nel 2015, della prof.ssa Adele Intini (ISIS G. Galilei, Gorizia) nel 2016 e dei proff. Francesco Venier (DEAMS – UniTS) e Girolamo Piccolo nel 2017. Dopo una breve introduzione del progetto, nei successivi paragrafi viene proposta la descrizione dei moduli del triennio, l’esperienza vissuta dai docenti e dagli studenti, rielaborata attraverso un’analisi qualitativa dei dati raccolti, e la sintesi conclusiva, volta soprattutto a mettere in luce i principali punti di forza e le eventuali criticità, come base su cui intervenire per migliorare la futura attività di orientamento
The Cryptocurrency Phenomenon: The Origins, Evolution and Economics of Digital Currencies
No full textThis book provides a comprehensive analysis of the cryptocurrency phenomenon from a financial/monetary point of view. It offers a unique slant in at least two ways, with the financial perspective as the reference point.
An examination of the technicalities surrounding blockchain and the mining of cryptocurrencies is included, but the reading is oriented to those who seek to better understand how these technical issues help to explain the functioning and the potential of cryptocurrencies, without touching on coding aspects. Moreover, the book addresses cryptocurrencies as an evolution of the concept of money, and it frames the analysis to give readers all the knowledge needed to connect the cryptocurrency phenomenon with traditional monetary theories. In so doing, cryptocurrencies are not considered as a completely disconnected trend, set apart from traditional financial systems, but as innovations that will push the concept of money forward, without dismantling previous foundations.
The book also includes a discussion on central banks, and stresses how their initial diffidence toward cryptocurrencies has turned into a more active approach that includes projects to develop the so-called Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC), thereby completing the analysis of the state of the art of the cryptocurrency surge.
The mix of theoretical content on the concept of money, the description of payment tools and the functioning of the payment industry, and the analysis of blockchain and the cryptocurrency markets makes the book interesting reading for researchers, scholars and students of economics, finance, or business, enabling them to develop the ability to understand the dynamics of the cryptocurrency phenomenon and its possible evolution
Un’analisi della natura prevalente del Bitcoin tra strumento monetario ed asset speculativo
No full textLo studio analizza prezzi e rendimenti giornalieri del Bitcoin mettendoli
in relazione con una pluralità di indici "nanziari (azionari, obbligazionari,
commodities, valute, ecc.) e considerando l’impatto di diverse notizie relative
all’accettabilità del Bitcoin come mezzo di pagamento ed altri eventi.
L’obiettivo di comprendere la natura prevalente del Bitcoin è stato perseguito
tramite una serie di analisi di regressione multivariata su diversi orizzonti
temporali. L’ipotesi alla base del lavoro è che la natura prevalente del Bitcoin
possa emergere da una maggiore similarità con l’andamento di alcune variabili
esplicative di di#erenti mercati (es. azionari, valutari, ecc.) rispetto ad altri. I
risultati denotano una signi"catività statistica maggiore per le variabili relative
ai mercati azionari – in particolare i mercati azionari americani ed europei –
rispetto a mercati valutari e delle commodities, portando a concludere che, al
momento, il Bitcoin venga considerato prevalentemente un asset speculativo,
molto più simile alle azioni, anziché una valuta o una commodity. La natura
monetaria non è comunque totalmente assente data la rilevanza statistica di
eventi che potrebbero in$uenzare l’accettabilità del Bitcoin come mezzo di
pagamento
Route Familiarity in Road Safety: Theory and Applications
No full textHuman factors are closely related to the causation of road accidents. Among them, the route familiarity plays an important role, since it can influence the driving task. The relationships between route familiarity and road safety are explored in this thesis from both a theoretical and an application point of view.
A general background section is devoted to the explanation of all those possible relationships, as reported in literature. They concern the influence on the driving task, the driver behaviour, the perceived risk, the performances, the travel utility. A specific section is devoted to the practical involvements in road design and traffic engineering.
The research work was focused on four different but parallel aspects connected to the main topic. The evolution of speeds and trajectories was inquired through the use of experimental data. The same data were used to investigate the possible changes in drivers’ perception. The potential impact of route familiarity on road accidents was firstly analyzed from a theoretical point of view based on exisiting frameworks. Thereafter, it was analyzed based on a traffic and accident database acquired in Norway, through different research steps.
The highlighted relationships between route familiarity and road safety were used to draw conclusions and propose potential developments related to the road safety practice. Moreover, given the several measures of familiarity found in previous literature, a more detailed and unified definition for measuring familiarity was proposed. It is based on both time and distance scales, according to previous theories and findings
