Securing XML documents with author-X
Author-X is a Java-based system that addresses the security issues of access control and policy design for XML document administration. Author-X supports the specification of policies at varying granularity levels and the specification of user credentials as a way to enforce access control. Access control is available according to both push and pull document distribution policies, and document updates are distributed through a combination of hash functions and digital signature techniques. The Author-X approach to distributed updates allows a user to verify a document's integrity without contacting the document server

Relying on Research for Effective Response: A Survey Tool for Measuring the Impact of COVID-19 to Create Extension Resources
The UF/IFAS Center for Public Issues Education in Agriculture and Natural Resources (PIE Center) conducted a series of national public opinion surveys to examine the perceptions of Americans related to COVID-19. The PIE Center shared the survey data using Extension and outreach communication pieces, including issue guides, kinetic typography videos, webinars, and communication toolkits. Data collected from the PIE Center on Americans’ perceptions related to COVID-19 also informed two communication toolkits developed for Extension. This new 5-page article, published by the UF/IFAS Department of Agricultural Education and Communication, describes the instruments used to collect public opinion data related to COVID-19.

Martino Buonocore e il palazzo Carafa della Spina nel Settecento
The essay explores the figure of Martino Buonocore and his main work, the renovation of the Carafa della Spina palace in Naples. For this work, executed in the 18th century, there have been conflicting interpretations, which tend to attribute its conception to Ferdinando Sanfelice. This hypothesis has been completely debunked by the investigation of primary sources. Crucial to Buonocore’s production is the family collaboration and the sharing of labour in his father Filippo's studio; the latter was the author of the magnificent 18th-century renovation of the palace in Corigliano. Martino was the author of the church of Santa Maria Verticoeli in Naples and had a 20-year commission for the Certosa di Padula. He worked for a long time with Gennaro Maria Carafa, who was to work on the Posillipo casino and the San Domenico palace. This last work will consolidate the long professional and friendly relationship between the prince and the architect.Il saggio esplora la figura di Martino Buonocore e la sua opera principale, la ristrutturazione del palazzo Carafa della Spina a Napoli nel XVIII secolo, per la quale ci sono state interpretazioni contrastanti, protese ad ascriverne l’ideazione a Ferdinando Sanfelice, ipotesi attributiva del tutto fugata dall’indagine sulle fonti primarie. Nella produzione di Martino risulta cruciale la collaborazione familiare e la condivisione delle maestranze coinvolte nella bottega artigiana del padre Filippo, già autore della magnifica rifattione settecentesca del palazzo Corigliano. Nel catalogo delle sue opere emergono la chiesa di Santa Maria Verticoeli a Napoli, l’incarico ventennale per la Certosa di Padula e la lunga collaborazione con Gennaro Maria Carafa, che lo impegnerà nel casino di Posillipo e nel palazzo in San Domenico, opera che consoliderà la lunga relazione professionale e amicale tra il principe e l’architetto
Factories and Industrial Buildings as a 1960 to 1980s Heritage. Issues for Their Preservation and Reuse
In the endless world of stock built to house industrial activities, a few examples of buildings with heritage value stand out, difficult to distinguish at first glance from the rest of the stock. These are buildings often constructed by architects of quality, in which there are either construction solutions, or typologies, or finishes (or even all these elements together) that make those factories of exceptional interest from a technological, historical, social etc. point of view. On many occasions, these buildings end up forgotten and neglected and, after more or less long periods, end up being demolished and removed from memory; on other occasions, they have less definitive fates and are reused for new functions. Even on these occasions, however, they often end up losing their character and those elements for which they were considered remarkable. This contribution stems from some university research undertaken over the last decades on industrial buildings located mainly in southern Italy. The ways in which this particular heritage, which is only on very rare occasions protected by the protective rules of Italian law, is wiped out are the most diverse. In general, the greatest risks arise from incongruous new uses, in which the values it carries are not considered in any way. In this contribution we will try to put in order some useful questions to build a possible methodology to face the restoration project of ‘author factories’, defining ‘quality’ elements and factors
