Monti di Pietà of 1500 and the Islamic banks as models of common good
Authors: Coronella Stefano , Biancone Paolo , Secinaro Silvana , Brescia Valerio
Published: April 2021

Introduction: The study compares two banking systems that have marked and mark the current system in Europe and the Middle East. The Monti di Pietà of 1500 and the Islamic banks which have developed several key features of the past, present the pillars of the Neo-Aristotelian concept of common good. Aim of the work: The study aims to identify the historical, cultural, and accounting factors, similarities, and ethical principles of the two models to identify key ele-ments supporting the common good concept. Methodological approach: This study adopts a historiographical approach that delves into the relationship between narrative, interpretive, and explanatory history, in which it argues that the historical narrative involves elements of interpretation and explanation. Furthermore, a considerable importance is given to the banking environment's political, religious, and regulatory aspects. Main findings: The analysis conducted traces ethical, cultural, and religious components, highlighting many aspects that confirm the starting theory and enrich its conception through financial models that are apparently distant from each other. The study highlights how reciprocity, solidarity, and support for the social fabric of growth have joint agreements and aspects characterizing the two models. Originality: The study provides and integrates significant elements on which the concept of the common good is based.
G Factor Injection and Activation into the Enterprise System in a Management Pioneer Vision: The Paccess' Way for the Governance of Complex Organizations
Authors: Castaldo Francesca , Gatti Mauro
Published: April 2021

Introduction: This paper examines, through a biographical approach, the practical activities and overall theoretical corpus of Pacces, an Italian technician and pre-cursor of managerial economy and culture, focusing on his formula for governing the 1970s ‘macro-enterprises', a complex organization's emblem. The article then, through a long period of empirical research, investigates the applicability of this ‘recipe' to large modern companies. Aims of the work: This Article has three objectives: a) to fill a cognitive gap within the existing literature; b) to show, putting on an organizational lens, how some of Pacces' ideas were not only exceptional for his time but still current - confirming his extraordinary vision - and harbingers of important implications for the mana-gerial world; and c) to be a starting point for subsequent studies, stimulating intel-lectual debate and research proliferation. Methodological approach: Consists of two techniques: 1) analysis and critical ex-amination of the Pacces' opera omnia, with a focus on organizational theory; 2) empirical analysis, over a decade, on the applicability of the conceptual system to homogeneous companies (to those studied by the Author), conducted with quali-tative techniques, mainly participant observation and semi-structured interviews with Senior Management. Main findings: The study adds a unique contribution to the knowledge of the Au-thor's organizational thinking. The empirical research shows, moreover, how his intuitions are extraordinary and highly topical but remain rarely applied by the Ital-ian Companies. Originality: Originality therefore lies in the organizational focus, never used before in the Professor's study, and in the long managerial applicability test of the theo-retical-practical corpus. Tools, not only conceptual, indicated by the Theorist to improve organizational practices could be used by management in a continuous improvement perspective
The economic effects of immovable property taxation: A review of the Italian experience
Authors: Di Porto Edoardo , Oliviero Tommaso , Tirozzi Annalisa
Published: April 2021

In this paper we review the results in the empirical literature on the effects of immovable property taxation reforms occurred in Italy in the last decades. We preliminary resume the recent history of property taxation reforms and discuss why Italy represents a good experimental laboratory to identify their effects on economic outcomes. We then review the empirical contributions regarding the impact of the ICI, introduced in 1993, and of the IMU, introduced in 2012, on local firms' investments, property values and households' consumption. We finally resume the findings related to the political economy of residential property taxation with respect to the incentives of local authorities, tax avoidance and voters' reaction
Politiche di contrasto alla criminalità organizzata e limite dell'utilità sociale ex art. 41 Cost.: il modello del d.lgs. n. 159/2011
Authors: Abbruzzo Leandra
Published: April 2021

Nel nostro ordinamento le limitazioni alla capacità giuridica possono incidere su diritti costituzionalmente riconosciuti, come l'iniziativa economica privata, senza rispettarne i limiti. Uno degli istituti che rischia di pregiudicare seriamente l'operatore economico, pur essendo presentato come uno strumento di lotta alla criminalità organizzata, è l'interdittiva antimafia, considerata anche la disciplina pretoria che ne ha ampliato i confini.

Verso la costruzione dell'identità professionale: un percorso di self-assessment per gli educatori del CdS L-19
Authors: Piazza Roberta , Rizzari Simona
Published: April 2021

L'esperienza del tirocinio rappresenta per gli/le studenti/esse del CdS L-19 un'occasione fondamentale per rafforzare la loro identità professionale. In particolare, essa consente di apprendere a gestire con consapevolezza e intenzionalità le dinamiche del lavoro educativo; fornisce un'occasione strutturata per la verifica delle conoscenze acquisite durante il percorso di studi; è in grado di creare un collegamento diretto tra la didattica universitaria e contesti lavorativi. Tuttavia, non sempre tale esperienza, per quanto fondamentale, è in grado di accompagnare gli studenti nel loro percorso di costruzione identitaria.Il progetto POT "SUPER", a cui il CdS L-19 dell'Università di Catania ha preso parte, ha consentito di ripensare all'esperienza del tirocinio con una maggiore focalizzazione sui percorsi di autoapprendimento e autovalutazione degli/le studenti/esse. I referenti del progetto hanno organizzato un percorso di self-assessment per i/le tirocinanti, finalizzato a descrivere le esperienze realizzate e a individuare le competenze acquisite durante il percorso di tirocinio. Il presente contributo analizza la costruzione del percorso, che ha richiesto una sua rimodulazione in considerazione del COVID, e i primi risultati conseguiti.
Toward performance measurement systems based on business models
Authors: Di Tullio Patrizia , La Torre Matteo , Valentinetti Diego , Rea Michele A.
Published: April 2021

Emerging research in the field of Management Control calls for abandoning out-dated performance measurement systems (PMSs) to emphasize the value chain of companies' value creation. Business model (BM) concepts can help to highlight this causal chain and convince companies to reframe their PMSs. However, little is known about how BM information is entered and used in companies' accounting information systems (AISs). In this study, we investigate whether companies im-prove their AISs by institutionalizing BM information, and we look at ways in which they can combine this information into their PMSs. We statistically test the coercive, mimetic, and normative forces influencing the institutionalization of BM information and the changes in AISs using the content analysis of the corporate reports and websites of 86 listed firms. Our results show that firms adjusted their AISs to communicate BM information, resulting in AISs conducive to the re-placement of traditional PMSs with new BM-based frameworks. Despite this change, we offer some reflections on whether and how these changes may happen in practice, and on ways in which combining BM information can give rise to new cognitive and accounting frameworks to reshape PMSs. This study enriches the theoretical research on the determinants shaping the institutionalization of new corporate information. It highlights the cognitive effects resulting from designing PMSs by advocating the need to consider cognitive and psychological aspects when capturing and portraying value creation in synoptic tools.
Are we ready to change? A case study of Management Accounting Change (MAC) in an Italian Co-operative
Authors: Macchia Silvia
Published: April 2021

Over the last 30 years, research on Management Accounting Change as a way to understand the circumstances, forces and consequences related to the develop-ment and implementation of new techniques has grown in popularity. Accounting practices are context-dependent, as are changes to such practices. They require setting-specific studies that pay attention to the complexity of their enactment and to the elements that shape these practices. This paper presents a retrospective lon-gitudinal case study of a management accounting change project undertaken by a co-operative firm, and includes descriptive and explanatory aims. The factors po-tentially influencing the firm's decision to invest in management accounting change were related to a requirement for managerial efficiency, the need to legiti-mize the company to its external stakeholders, and the behavioral aptitude of in-dividual employees in the accounting and management sections. Against propo-nents' expectations, the project proved difficult to implement because of different forms of resistance and opposition, some explicit, others less obvious, encountered during implementation.. The study provides insights into the role played by man-agement control systems in creating and fostering trust in innovation and change.
Le azioni indicate per la gestione dei casi di bullismo e vittimizzazione nella scuola. I risultati della sperimentazione del progetto PEBUC (Protocollo di Emergenza per i casi di bullismo e cyberbullismo)
Authors: Menesini Ersilia , Fiorentini Giada , Nocentini Annalaura
Published: April 2021

Il bullismo costituisce un problema rilevante nel contesto scolastico, tuttavia mancano a li-vello nazionale ed internazionale protocolli strutturati per la gestione del fenomeno. Lo stu-dio propone la valutazione del progetto PEBUC, protocollo standardizzato per le azioni in-dicate in caso di bullismo. Hanno partecipato al progetto 11 insegnanti di 2 scuole toscane. Il protocollo prevede strumenti di prima segnalazione, di valutazione approfondita, di moni-toraggio dell'intervento da parte degli insegnati. I risultati mostrano come gli insegnanti sia-no stati in grado di prendere in carico le segnalazioni attivando percorsi funzionali in rela-zione alla gravità del caso. Lo studio evidenzia l'importanza di dotare le scuole di sistemi di segnalazione e protocolli standardizzati per gestire episodi di bullismo e cyberbullismo.

Pandemia e sconvolgimento dei sistemi migratori: il caso del corridoio Marocco-Spagna
Authors: Gabrielli Lorenzo
Published: April 2021

In questo articolo, l'autore analizza gli effetti dirompenti della pandemia di CO-VID-19 sul sistema migratorio esistente tra la Spagna e Marocco, utilizzando come approccio teorico il concetto di "frontierizzazione" (bordering). A partire dai primi mesi del 2020, la crescente diffusione del virus SARS-CoV-2 ha generato un pro-fondo sconvolgimento, che si è manifestato in cinque dinamiche principali: 1) l'apparire di nuove migrazioni forzate di ritorno; 2) la perturbazione dei flussi tran-sfrontalieri esistenti; 3) i cambiamenti dei canali informali di migrazione e la ria-pertura della rotta atlantica verso le Canarie; 4) l'emergere di zone-cuscinetto alle frontiere (buffer spaces); 5) la riorganizzazione dei facilitatori delle migrazioni in-formali e delle organizzazioni di smuggling. Nel breve periodo, dunque, lo shock esogeno della pandemia ha provocato cambiamenti profondi, la cui persistenza nel medio e lungo periodo dovrà essere oggetto di attenzione costante in futuro.

La resilienza delle metroregioni italiane nel periodo della crisi economica mondiale 2008-2016 tra sensitività e capacità occupazionale
Authors: Rota Francesca , Bagliani Marco , Feletig Paolo , Ferlaino Fiorenzo
Published: April 2021

L'articolo si inserisce nel filone della letteratura che misura la resilienza economica regionale a partire dalla dinamica dell'occupazione. Identificando nella crisi economica del 2008 la principale discontinuità nei percorsi di crescita delle contemporanee economie regionali, l'articolo sostiene l'opportunità che le analisi comparative territoriali (o analisi di benchmarking) realizzate dopo tale evento assumano il concetto di resilienza come principale riferimento teorico e metodologico. Significative appaiono a questo riguardoalcune recenti sperimentazioni tassonomiche condotte in ambito europeo, in cui la tenuta occupazionale regionale è messa in relazione sia con la dinamica precedente alla crisi, sia con la dinamica aggregata (sensitività relativa). Muovendo da questi esempi, nell'articolo si propone una modalità di analisi territoriale che, sfruttando la proprietà dell'analisi shiftshare dinamico-cumulativa di scomporre i tassi di crescita dell'occupazione in ragione delle sue componenti costitutive (legate alla nazione di appartenenza, alla struttura dell'economia regionale e alla competitività complessiva del sistema regionale), mette a confronto le dinamiche pre- e post-crisi delle singole regioni, e le legge in ragione della capacità  occupazionale relativa, ossia dell'ammontare complessivo dei posti di lavoro creati o persi dopo il 2008 nella regione rispetto al Paese. Questa metodologia è quindi applicata al caso delle metroregioni italiane e il risultato che ne deriva è una geografia piuttosto ‘inedita' dei divari economici interni al Paese. Una geografia in cui il contributo più importante viene dalla peculiare capacità di risposta alla crisi della regione, indipendentemente dall'influenza esercitata dal contesto nazionale e dalla maggiore o minore tenuta occupazionale dei settori in cui è organizzata l'economia regionale.
Gian Rinaldo Carli (1720-1795): Diagnosis and treatment of a monetary plague
Authors: Tusset Gianfranco
Published: April 2021

Gian Rinaldo Carli was an "expert" of money who lived in the 18th century, in an economic environment revolving around national and international trade. Be-longing to a community of scholars who lived in a sort of golden age of pre-classical studies on money, Carli stood out for his insistence on the need to inter-vene to contain monetary imbalance, seen as a serious impediment to the expan-sion of trade and economic dynamism. Carli curved his analysis, which was theo-retical in its depth, to political action and initiative. He sought to craft those rigor-ous empirically based measures that should underlie the practical work of a re-former. The paper aims to understand how Carli introduced rigor into his approach to monetary advice, in order to make it more adequate to meet what he believed was a growing need expressed by the governors of the time, starting with the Em-press of Austria.

Historic Perspective on the Conversations to Restart the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant
Authors:   Universidad de Keio, Ávalos Salgado Andrea Carolina
Published: April 2021

Following the accident of Fukushima in 2011, nuclear facilities in Japan were shut down, and a new evaluation and restart process was developed. Despite the public safety concerns, the current administration expects nuclear energy to become a pillar for economic recovery in the coming years. This paper compares the historic context of restarting Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant before and after Fukushima. The evolution is analyzed through a series of interviews in 2012 and 2013 in the community and with government officers, as well as a close follow-up of the official statements by TEPCO and the government agencies up until the end of 2020. It tackles the development in the relation between TEPCO, local authorities, and local community of this nuclear plant, before and after Fukushima. This historic relation has shown to be the key element in the restart process, even above the legal process.

The Status of English in Bahrain: A Quantitative Analysis of Domains Uses and Attitudes
Authors: Bulaila Abdulaziz , Sdiri Imed Bin Abdallah
Published: April 2021

The use of the English language in the Kingdom of Bahrain nowadays is widespread in various domains and for multiple purposes. However, there is no consensus among language experts in the country on what status English holds in reality.  By using a survey questionnaire, the study explored the domains where English is used, how frequent that use is, and how it is being perceived by Bahraini students and working people in the public and private sectors. The analysis of the collected data helped this research study to assertively conclude that the status of English in Bahrain is shifting and that today it stands as a well-established second language with a variety of functions. This study has even revealed that Arabic, the official language of the country, is being relatively displaced by English in more than one context, including those where Arabic was traditionally the dominant language. It is hoped that such significant findings would help policymakers in Bahrain, especially those responsible for educational policies, to develop relevant language plans that are based on exact research findings. They would also help educational institutions at all levels, curriculum developers, textbook designers in Bahrain, the Arabian Gulf, and all over the world to design relevant language programs that reflect the needs of all Bahrainis and that are aligned with official language policies. Moreover, they would provide language researchers worldwide with valuable data so as to deeply understand the dynamics of English as a global language, gain further insight into the diverse factors that facilitate its expansion, and eventually manage to design more comprehensive reference frameworks and analytical models that could incorporate all this diversity.
The Feminine Cultural Politics Essentialism and Popular Imagination Liberality in Nuruddin Farah’s Sardines (1982)
Authors: Diallo Souleymane
Published: April 2021

Throughout the development of this fiction, Nuruddin Farah exposes the issues of the sphere of origin. In fact, the run of Sardines exhibits the question of the patriarchal reality of ideas, and then, emphasizes a feminine self-consciousness, which through its evolutionary source and perfecting method disrupts the traditional construction of narrative-based essentially on custom of symbol. Through the implemented study of a new feminine ontological aspect, the logic of Sardines remains in a realistic and structural redefinition of social epistemology. In this line, within the realm of social agency, the feminine new ontological discourse dismantles the macro-structural establishment within which identity is constructed. In this perspective, this paper aims to focus on voluntary feminine emancipation and its psychological and cognitive value. Furthermore, through the discourse of a new politics of identity, this paper seeks to unveil the manner socio-political conservatism reality annihilates the truth of the individual. Therefore, the consequence of this article is expected to underscore the feminine approach of a new historical materialism.It remains an attempt to display the implied practical mode of communication, which appears different from the apparent reality of the patriarchal mode, the manner Farah creates a discourse of reconstruction and a scientific observation of the real.
БІЗНЕС-ПЛАН ЯК ІНСТРУМЕНТ УПРАВЛІННЯ АВІАКОМПАНІЄЮ В УМОВАХ ПАНДЕМІЧНОЇ КРИЗИ
Authors: Kovalenko N.O. , Stoliarchuk N.V.
Published: April 2021

Вступ. Світова пандемія Covid-19 визначила нові непередбачувані умови діяльності для більшості суб’єктів цивільної авіації. Встановлено, що більшість представників світового авіаційного бізнесу, в тому числі України, проявили неготовність та неспроможність подолати кризу, уникнути банкрутства й витримати конкуренцію. Мета. Метою дослідження є теоретичне обґрунту- вання технології розробки і використання бізнес-плану як елементу управління авіакомпаніями України в умовах пандемічної кризи. Результати. Конкретизо- вано, що бізнес-планування є уніфікованим механізмом управління діяльністю в умовах невизначеності. Доведено, що, незважаючи на вимоги практики, аспекти застосування бізнес-планування як елементу управління є запозиченими, чітко не визначеними й не адаптованими до умов діяльності авіакомпаній України в умо- вах кризи. Досвід організації підприємництва в галузі цивільної авіації свідчить, що аналіз та планування діяльності організації набуває дедалі більшого значення у зв’язку зі швидкими змінами в середовищі функціонування. Висновки. Доведено, що бізнес-план як основа управління авіапідприємством дає змогу проаналізувати всі елементи діяльності авіакомпанії, визначити фактори негативного впливу, загрози та можливості, розглянути альтернативні варіанти дій, спрогнозувати фінансові результати, що дасть змогу оптимізувати функціонування і мінімізу- вати ступінь впливу епідемічної кризи.
БЕЗПЕКА МОРЕПЛАВСТВА З УРАХУВАННЯМ ОСОБЛИВОСТЕЙ ЛЬОДОВОЇ ОБСТАНОВКИ
Authors: Nesterov O.Y. , Zagorodnia Y.V. , Perepechaev S.M.
Published: April 2021

Вступ. У статті розглядаються сучасні проблеми безпеки судноплавства, а також вирішуються питання безпеки мореплавства, які спрямовані на всебічну підготовку судна та екіпажу для плавання в льодових умовах, особливості гідро- метеорологічних умов мореплавства каналами Азовського моря та умови виник- нення такого природного явища, як «льодова ріка». Метою статті є аналіз безпеки судноводіння; виявлення можливих причин виникнення «льодової ріки», для подальших досліджень і розробки відповідних заходів щодо забезпечення без- пеки судноплавства каналами Азовського моря в льодовій обстановці, створення стандарту системи, що забезпечує безпечне плавання суден. Стандарт системи має не тільки забезпечити безпечне плавання, але і полегшити завдання конт- ролю готовності судна до виходу в море. Результати. Увага світових морських організацій, включаючи Міжнародну морську організацію (ІМО), Берегову охоро- ну розвинутих морських держав, асоціації фрахтувальників, судновласників, кла- сифікаційні товариства і передові судноплавні компанії, зосереджено на підви- щенні контролю за безпекою на морі. Практика мореплавства каналами Азовського моря свідчить про ускладнення судноводіння гідрометеорологічними умовами в цьому районі. Одним із таких факторів є поява «льодової ріки». Авторами допускається припущення щодо причин появи «льодової ріки». Висновки. Таким чином, пробле- ми навігаційної безпеки мають вирішуватися в комплексі; з урахуванням льодо- вих ускладнень, що зустрічаються в районах плавання з метою попередження аварійної небезпеки та підвищення безпеки судноплавства. Розглянуті можливі причини виникнення «льодової річки» в судноплавних каналах мілководного Азовського моря вимагають проведення подальших теоретичних і експериментальних досліджень у напрямі розробки заходів щодо забезпечення безпеки мореплавства в льодову обстановку в цьому регіоні.
ПІДВИЩЕННЯ ЕФЕКТИВНОСТІ ОРГАНІЗАЦІЇ ДОРОЖНЬОГО РУХУ НА НЕРЕГУЛЬОВАНОМУ ПЕРЕХРЕСТІ

Published: April 2021

Вступ. Перетин доріг на одному рівні завжди є зоною підвищеної небезпеки, тому тут частіше трапляються ДТП. У процесі проєктування перехресть не завжди вда- ється повною мірою спрогнозувати інтенсивність руху на ньому, крім того, вели- чина інтенсивності з часом експлуатації перехрестя змінюється. Це своєю чергою має безпосередній вплив на безпеку руху та пропускну здатність цього перехрестя. Мета – підвищення безпеки руху на нерегульованому перехресті доріг одного рівня в процесі зміни організації дорожнього руху. Результати. Задачею досліджень було вдосконалення перехрестя доріг Р41 та Р39, де часто спостерігаються дорож- ньо-транспортні пригоди. Для досягнення поставленої мети виконано спостере- ження за інтенсивністю руху на перехресті відповідно до стандартних методик. За результатами обробки статистичних даних спостережень побудовано карто- грами інтенсивності руху транспорту для відповідних періодів пікових інтенсивнос- тей. Визначено коефіцієнт нерівномірності інтенсивності руху протягом доби. Про- ведено оцінювання порівняної безпеки руху під час переміщення транспорту ділянкою дороги з розглядуваним перехрестям на основі підсумкового коефіцієнта аварійнос- ті. Для перетину доріг Р41 та Р39, що знаходяться на одному рівні, побудовано схе- му конфліктних точок. За коефіцієнтом аварійності, що віднесений до 107 автомо- білів, які перетинають перехрестя, визначено ступінь небезпеки цього перехрестя. У роботі запропоновано змінити організацію дорожнього руху на розглядуваному перехресті, застосувавши схему кільцевого руху. Для нової схеми руху на перехресті виконано аналіз ймовірної аварійності, де встановлено значне зниження можливос- тей виникнення ДТП. Висновки. За результатами дослідження базової схеми пере- хрестя встановлено, що підсумковий коефіцієнт аварійності для цієї ділянки дороги (перехрестя) становить 65,3, що відносить її до «дуже небезпечної». Таке значен- ня коефіцієнта для ділянки дороги, що проходить через перехрестя на одному рівні, вказує на зміну організації дорожнього руху. Із розрахунку коефіцієнта аварійності ( Ka = 24,5), що віднесений до 107 автомобілів, які перетинають перехрестя, встанов- лено ступінь небезпеки цього перехрестя – «дуже небезпечне». Таким чином, резуль- тати дослідження вказують на те, що ділянка, де проходить перетин доріг Р41 та Р39 на одному рівні, потребує зміни організації дорожнього руху через її перепла- нування. Запропонована схема кругового руху на перехресті має позитивний ефект: зменшується кількість конфліктних точок з 32 до 20; коефіцієнт аварійності, що віднесений до 107 автомобілів, які перетинають перехрестя, становить Ka = 5,92 . За таких умов досліджуване перехрестя вважається «мало небезпечним».
Kingdom of Nokia: How a Nation Served the Needs of One Company
Authors: Lindén Carl-Gustav
Published: April 2021

Kingdom of Nokia tells a fascinating story of corporatism in Finland. How did the mobile phone giant Nokia make the Finnish elite willing to serve the interests of the company? Nokia became a global player in mobile communications in the 1990s, and helped establish Anglo-Saxon capitalism in Finland. Through its success and strong lobbying, the company managed to capture the attention of Finnish politicians, civil servants, and journalists nationwide. With concrete detailed examples, Kingdom of Nokia illustrates how Nokia organised lavishing trips to journalists and paid direct campaign funding to politicians to establish its role at the core of Finnish decision-making. As a result, the company influenced important political decisions such as joining the European Union and adopting the euro, and further, Nokia even drafted its own law to serve its special interests. All this in a country considered one of the least corrupt in the world.

Although great advances have been made in understanding the pathobiology of mixed lineage leukemia-rearranged (MLL-r) leukemias, therapies for this leukemia have remained limited, and clinical outcomes remain bleak. In order to identify novel targets for immunotherapy treatments, we compiled a lineage-independent MLL-r leukemia gene signature using publicly available data sets. Data from large leukemia repositories were filtered through the in silico human surfaceome, providing a list of highly predicted cell surface proteins overexpressed in MLL-r leukemias. LAMP5, a lysosomal associated membrane protein, is expressed highly and specifically in MLL-r leukemia. We found that LAMP5 is a direct target of the oncogenic MLL-fusion protein. LAMP5 depletion significantly inhibited leukemia cell growth in vitro and in vivo. Functional studies showed that LAMP-5 is a novel modulator of innate-immune pathways in MLL-r leukemias. Downregulation of LAMP5 led to inhibition of NF-kB signaling and increased activation of type-1 interferon signaling downstream of Toll-like receptor/interleukin 1 receptor activation. These effects were attributable to the critical role of LAMP-5 in transferring the signal flux from interferon signaling endosomes to pro-inflammatory signaling endosomes. Depletion of IRF7 was able to partially rescue the cell growth inhibition upon LAMP5 downregulation. Lastly, LAMP-5 was readily detected on the surface of MLL-r leukemia cells. Targeting surface LAMP-5 using an antibody-drug conjugate leads to significant cell viability decrease specifically in MLL-r leukemias. Overall, based on the limited expression throughout human tissues, we postulate that LAMP-5 could potentially serve as an immunotherapeutic target with a wide therapeutic window to treat MLL-r leukemias.

Purpose. Substantiation of the possibility of obtaining composite cermet electric arc coatings using TiC powder as a strengthening phase, determination of their physical and mechanical properties. Methodology. The microstructure of the composite cermet electric arc coatings was studied by computer metallography using a ZEISS Gemini SEM 500 scanning electron microscope. The chemical composition was determined by X-ray spectral analysis; phases were identified by measuring their microhardness on a PMT-3 device. The bond strength of the obtained coatings was determined by the method of pulling out the pintle on a tensile testing machine UMM-5. Findings. Composite cermet coatings of the steel 65G-TiC system were obtained by the electric arc spraying using TiC powder in a free state. The influence of the technological parameters of spraying on the amount of the carbide phase in the coating was established, and their microstructure was investigated. The porosity, microhardness of the phases in the coating and its bond strength were determined. Originality. For the first time, composite cermet electric arc coatings of the steel 65G-TiC system were obtained by using a powder of strengthening phase in a free state. Their microstructure, microhardness and bond strength were investigated. The technological spraying modes of electric arc coatings have been established, which provide the optimal content of the strengthening phase to achieve their maximum bond strength with substrate. Practical value. The application of the research results obtained in the work, namely, the determination of the optimal technological parameters of spraying for the formation of cermet electric arc coatings with the maximum level of physical, mechanical and operational properties, makes it possible to meet the requirements for the restoration and hardening of worn surfaces. This leads to an increase in the service life of parts not only in mining, but also in other industries.

Published: April 2021

Purpose. Improving the quality of the analysis of energy consumption modes of buildings of educational institutions by determining the typical patterns of their consumption by the k-means method based on statistics of thermal energy consumed, their area, outdoor and indoor air temperature. Methodology. Methods of statistical and intellectual data analysis, optimization methods, k-means method. Findings. It is shown that most of the researched consumers of thermal energy have similar patterns of its consumption and can be divided into separate segments according to the peculiarities of functioning. The used data set is diverse as it includes three groups of data (conditionally formed by the type of educational institutions). The buildings in groups have different areas, internal temperature to be maintained, operation modes of heating systems and so on. For each of the groups, the number of clusters corresponding to low, medium and high values of heat consumption is determined. It was found that the amount of the consumed heat and consumer behavior depends on the day of the week. The obtained results can be difficult to generalize for all existing types of buildings, but it is expected that communal buildings may have similar consumption patterns, as operating modes and norms of internal microclimate remain the same for different temperature zones and territories. Originality. The method for dividing the consumers of thermal energy into segments on the basis of the data on daily energy consumption applying the k-means clustering algorithm, implemented in the programming language R, is further developed. For the first time, it has been proposed to consider not one, but three groups of objects of the educational institutions. It is proposed to determine the modes of energy consumption by buildings analytically by taking into account such parameters as the area of buildings, the amount of heat consumed by them, external and internal air temperature. Practical value. The results of the research are useful for heat supply companies, municipalities and can be used to develop programs and policies for energy efficiency. The given information and analytical support create a basis for the development of software solutions with the function of integration into local energy monitoring systems of a separate building, energy management system of the district and/or city. The presented results provide an opportunity to predict the cost of energy resources used for heating buildings, which increases the efficiency of engineering systems of buildings.

Published: April 2021

Purpose. To achieve a decrease in energy and resource costs in the multi-stage production of rolled products within a given plan through the development of appropriate mathware. Methodology. The multi-stage problem mathware for producing rolling steel products is developed on the basis of system approach applying fundamental principles of the optimization and operation research theory. Realization of the developed mathematical model allows discovering such a strategy of using steel during the whole manufacturing process, which minimizes not only the steel waste at the moment of its casting in a mold, but also the offcuts in the process of cutting the obtained ingots into the billets. Findings. A mathematical task model is built to minimize the amount of steel for producing a certain order of size of one cast volume only. The developed model specifies the possibility to pre-evaluate the billet optimal size, based on the necessary cutting along the final product length, appropriate for the certain billet form of section, and ingot weight limits. Originality. A mathematical model is provided for the optimal metal distribution process when implementing the plan of manufacturing rolling products. The model, in contrast to the existing ones, shifts the emphasis on forming the optimal ingot weight, which has a pre-calculated optimal cutting plan. Practical value. The use of the developed mathematical optimization model (minimizing the amount of steel for producing a certain order) as part of an automated decision support system for management of rolling production will reduce the number of cutting machine changeover and minimize resources use and stock balance.

Purpose. To establish integrated innovation management based on developing a corporate innovation base at industrial enterprises in the context of post-conflict transformation. Methodology. In the course of the works, the methods of theoretical generalization, comparison, synthesis, analysis were used to reveal the general principles and to determine the basic categories of the study. Findings. A model of the integrated innovation management approach at industrial enterprises is developed. In modern corporate structures, innovations are divided into groups according to their independent properties. The innovation management system, if it exists, is considered as an independent system that has its own set of goals which are not integrated into the goals of the corporation itself. The paper considers the goals of innovation management in an integrated structure as the implementation of the goals of a corporation, where innovation management processes are integrated horizontally and vertically according to business processes. Innovation management is based on three approaches: transfer, algorithmic and creative ones. Originality. The paper offers the authors methods for managing innovation by using the system of methodological approaches (algorithmic, transfer, creative managements), based on processes of innovation management at the industrial enterprises in the context of post-conflict transformation, which have been identified applying the mathematical models. The study has developed: - the authors approach to the formation of innovation management objectives at industrial enterprises in post-conflict transformation context, based on eight key spaces, with the identification of five groups of goals: financial, production, marketing, human resource management, and information support; - a system of innovation management objectives with a of innovation management task subsystem in the field of financial activities, production process, marketing, human resource management and information technology support. Practical value. The practical significance of the results is that they can be applied in corporate integration structures to increase economic efficiency, making a profit from introduction.
