Year: 2019

description: L’articolo illustra il progetto di ricerca-azione che ha inteso mappare gli organismi istituzionali e non impegnati nella promozione e nell’insegnamento dell’italiano come lingua straniera in Libano. La ricerca-azione è stata il frutto dell’azione congiunta tra l’Università Statale di Beirut e il Laboratorio ITALS dell’Università Ca’ Foscari di Venezia che, in stretta collaborazione con l’Istituto italiano di cultura di Beirut, ha voluto sperimentare un modello a tendere per monitorare la situazione dell’insegnamento e dell’apprendimento dell’italiano in Libano al fine di far emergere gli aspetti positivi della diffusione della lingua italiana e le criticità. La ricerca si è focalizzata specificatamente sulla metodologia di insegnamento degli insegnanti di italiano, nonché sulle ricadute motivazionali che i percorsi didattici hanno negli apprendenti. L’aspetto qualitativo della ricerca ha consentito di giungere a una visione strutturale e più organica della situazione dell’italiano in Libano; gli input pervenuti si sono rivelati significativi per poter giungere a una diagnosi più equilibrata della realtà indagata e per individuare e proporre strategie di miglioramento per quanto riguarda sia la definizione dei curricoli sia le metodologie di insegnamento dei docenti di lingua italiana.

Survey on the teaching of Italian language and culture in Lebanon
The paper illustrates an action-research project aimed at mapping institutional and private institutions engaged in the promotion and teaching of Italian as a foreign language in Lebanon. The action-research was a collaboration between the State University of Beirut and the ITALS Laboratory of the University Ca’ Foscari of Venice, with the Italian Institute of Culture in Beirut, in order to test a model to monitor the situation of teaching and learning of Italian in Lebanon, centered on the positive aspects of the spreading of the Italian language as well as the critical issues. The research specifically focused on the teaching methodology of Italian teachers, as well as on the motivational effects on learners. The qualitative aspect of the research led to a structural and more organic vision of the situation of Italian in Lebanon. The inputs have proven to be significant in arriving at a more balanced vision of the reality investigated, leading to the identification and proposals for strategies for improvement with regard to both the definition of curricula and the teaching methods of Italian language teachers.

description: La littérature thermale est un immense ensemble. Il faut y distinguer notamment une littérature thermale centrale, à la riche typologie, qui ne paraît pas se distinguer notablement du reste de la production médicale savante, et une littérature locale, constituée de guides et traités répétitifs, souvent rédigés par les médecins des stations, et destinée principalement aux curistes. Cette production à usage surtout promotionnel et pratique s’accompagne parfois, chez leurs auteurs, d’une production lettrée, soit d’inspiration locale, soit plus imbriquée dans la production scientifique médicale, révélatrice du statut social de ces auteurs et de la variété de leurs parcours. Une annexe indique comment repérer ces publications dans les collections imprimées de la Bibliothèque interuniversitaire de santé.
description: The hydrotherapy has produced a huge literature. We must distinguish in particular a ‟central” hydrotherapy literature, with a rich typology, which does not seem to be significantly different from the rest of the scholarly medical production, and a local literature, consisting of repetitive guides and treaties, often written by doctors of the thermal resorts, and mostly intended for patients. This production, mainly written for promotional use and practical needs, is sometimes accompanied by works of local historical or literary studies. In some cases, it is also more embedded in the central medical literature. It reveals the social status of these authors, and the variety of their cursus. An appendix shows how to search in the printed collections of the Bibliothèque interuniversitaire de santé.

QUADRI TEORICI, PRATICHE DIDATTICHE E TIPI DI PROTOCOLLI DELLE PROVE DI SCRITTURA
Creators: name: Guerriero, Anna Rosa
Publisher: name: Italiano LinguaDue
Year: 2019

description: La tipologia dei protocolli di scrittura è il filo tematico che attraversa le questioni discusse nell’articolo: rapporto tra la scrittura documentata (writing from sources) e tipi di prove di esame elaborate in occasione della riforma del 1999, cambiamenti di impostazione presenti nella revisione della prima prova del 2018, un confronto tra diversi modi di declinare la scrittura documentata in alcuni protocolli di esame di alcune scuole europee. Sullo sfondo altre questioni, indizi di una debole sintonizzazione tra ricerca didattica, formazione dei docenti e modalità di accertamento finale delle competenze degli allievi, ad esempio: grado di diffusione e radicamento nelle conoscenze dei docenti di nuclei teorici di linguistica educativa contenuti negli obiettivi curricolari dai Programmi Brocca alle Indicazioni Nazionali; adeguatezza dei tipi di protocolli di esame di stato rispetto ai traguardi di competenze di scrittura indicati nei documenti programmatici; consapevolezza critica, nelle scelte metodologiche dei docenti, dell’intreccio degli uni e degli altri. Theoretical frameworks, teaching practices and types of writing test protocols The typology of writing protocols is the thematic thread that runs through the issues discussed in the article: the relationship between writing from sources and the types of exams developed on the occasion of the 1999 reform, changes in approach present in the revision of the first test of 2018, comparison between different ways of writing documented in some exam protocols from a few European schools. There are other underlying questions, indications of weak links between didactic research, teacher training and methods for the final assessment of students’ competences, for example: the degree of diffusion and rooting of theoretical nuclei of educational linguistics contained in the curriculum objectives, from the Programmi Brocca to the Indicazioni Nazionali, in teachers’ knowledge; the adequacy of the types of state examination protocols with respect to the goals of writing skills indicated in the program documents; critical awareness of their interweaving in teachers' methodological choices.

description: Attraverso l’analisi di un corpus di quindici manuali scolastici si offre una prima ricognizione sul ruolo della parafrasi nei libri di grammatica per la scuola secondaria di secondo grado. L’intervento è articolato in due parti: la prima mette a fuoco obiettivi, presupposti metodologici e definizioni documentate nel corpus; la seconda mira a far emergere e risaltare le motivazioni teoriche e pratiche delle scelte delle grammatiche relativamente a esercizi e tipi di testi proposti, incrociando i dati emersi con gli studi linguistici sulla parafrasi. A corredo dell’analisi, sono fatte alcune considerazioni su come possano essere coniugate teoria e finalità didattiche in funzione della piena comprensione dei testi e della riflessione storica e metalinguistica sulle varietà letterarie e specialistiche dell’italiano. Paraphrase and reformulation in school textbooks Through the analysis of a corpus of fifteen school textbooks, this survey investigates the role of paraphrases in textbooks for secondary schools. The first part focuses on objectives, methodological assumptions and definitions documented in the corpus; the second part aims to identify and highlight the theoretical and practical reasons for the choice of textbooks in relation to exercises and types of texts proposed, crossing the data with language studies on paraphrase. In support of the analysis, some considerations are made on how theory and teaching objectives can be combined in order to fully understand the texts as well as historical and metalinguistic reflections on the literary and specialized varieties of Italian.

Year: 2019
Subjects: Vocal interaction, tangible, coach

description: This report shows how the NESTORE tangible coach works, describing the different coach states and the actions that allow to change from one state to the other.
 The tangible coach allows the user to interact with the NESTORE Virtual Coach in oral form. The intelligence of the NESTORE Virtual Coach is the same and is based on the Decision Support System and the Emotion Engine. The user can interact with the tangible coach changing its state via physical manipulation. When the tangible coach is in wake state, both the user and the NESTORE coach can start the conversation. In fact, the coach will address the user when a new notification is available. However, the user will have to say the wakeword in order to let the coach understand that the user is addressing the coach and to start the conversation. When the tangible coach is in sleep state, the coach will not be on listen and will not hear the user. When the coach is in the awake state and the user did not say the wakeword “NESTORE” then the coach will not know that the user is addressing him. The tangible coach can handle oral conversations in four different languages: English, Italian, Dutch and Spanish. Conversations are used both for coaching and for collecting data from the user. This document presents an overview of the tangible coach and shows the forms of interaction the user can have with it. The theoretical background, the design process and the implementation details of Task T5.3 have been partially presented in D5.3.1 and will be detailed in an extended version of this document (not publicly available)
L’ITALIANO DELLE VERSIONI SCOLASTICHE DAL LATINO

Year: 2019

description: Molta attenzione, nel mondo della linguistica, è riservata alla questione della traduzione dei testi. È pur vero, però, che la traduzione dalle lingue classiche, considerate ormai come codici inerti, è un territorio ancora inesplorato. Questo studio, basato sull’analisi sintattica di versioni scolastiche dal latino a opera di studenti liceali, si propone di delineare delle tendenze appartenenti a tale tipologia di testi, con l’intento di dimostrare come il codice linguistico risultante da questi brani si differenzi dall’italiano comunemente scritto e parlato – italiano standard – e si basi su norme proprie e artificiose che rendono la produzione testuale un semplice esercizio traduttivo e non la creazione di un brano autonomo e a se stante. The Italian language used as translation for Latin texts in schools Careful attention is paid to the topic of text translation within the field of linguistics. However, it is true that the translation of classical languages, widely considered as “dead languages”, is still unexplored. This study is based on the syntactic analysis of scholastic translations from Latin by high school students and proposes to outline the patterns of this text typology. The paper intends to demonstrate how the linguistic code derived from these texts differentiate from common written and spoken Italian, and thus is based on specific and artificial norms that make this type of textual production a simple translation exercise rather than the creation of a self-standing and autonomous text.

description: Il contributo affronta il tema della punteggiatura nel sottotitolaggio interlinguistico di serie tv. Tra i motivi di interesse di questo genere testuale, oltre ad alcune caratteristiche peculiari (compresenza di più codici comunicativi, rapporto col parlato filmico ecc.), c’è anche la grande diffusione di questi prodotti audiovisivi presso le giovani generazioni, dunque il suo potenziale impatto modellizzante rispetto alle nuove forme di scrittura. A un inquadramento generale sui caratteri del sottotitolaggio, segue l’analisi di tre segni interpuntivi (virgola, due punti, puntini di sospensione) in un corpus di 12 episodi presi da 10 serie tv in lingua inglese. Punctuation in interlingual subtitles of Anglo-Saxon television series This paper deals with Italian punctuation marks in TV show subtitles. What makes this type of text interesting, apart from some very specific features (coexistence of different communication codes, connection between punctuation marks and spoken language etc.), is the widespread use of audiovisual products, especially among young audiences, hence the possible influence on new forms of writing. We first describe the main features of subtitling; then we analyze three punctuation marks (comma, colon, ellipsis) in a corpus of 12 episodes taken from 10 TV shows in English.

Standby letters of credit and fraud
Creators: name: Sigrist, Pierre
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: During the last ten years, there has been a remarkable increase in the number of cases involving incidents of fraud in standby letters of credit. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the effect of fraud on standby letters of credit transactions. This study principally deals with standby letters of credit issued under the 1983 Revision of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, drafted by the International Chamber of Commerce, which is a set of internationally recognized rules for documentary credit operations. Due to the international character of letters of credit law, I have adopted a comparative approach that deals with materials from the U.S., Canada, U.K., Germany and Switzerland. This thesis will first show that there are two types of standby letters of credit, which have to be distinguished because they involve different obligations and risks for the parties. A device payable against the beneficiary's simple statement will be described as a "simple statement" standby credit, whereas a device payable against a set of documents will be called a "documentary" standby credit. The thesis will then demonstrate why the treatment of fraud should not be the same for "simple statement" standby credits and "documentary" standby credits.
Geroprotective Effects of Late-Onset Dietary Interventions – How late is too late?

description: Dietary restriction without malnutrition remains the most robust non-genetic intervention to date for delaying ageing and extending healthspan and lifespan in diverse species. The majority of the existing studies to examine the impact of nutritional interventions on the biology of ageing and disease employed dietary regimens that were initiated early in life.  This study aimed to assess the potential efficacy of a late-onset alternate day fasting protocol starting at 10, 14, 18, and 22 weeks of age including male and female killifish of the short-lived Nothobranchius furzeri GRZ strain. We monitored lifespan and various health parameters, including weight, length, organ size, and glycogen levels. Our results show that late life intermittent fasting results in lifespan extension, and shows positive effects on various health parameters, with the most significant impact being on liver physiology and glycogen levels. Importantly, the ability of every other day fasting to extend lifespan, as well as the magnitude of life extension, correlates with the age of initiation. Noteworthy, we observed a sex specific difference in response to late-onset intermittent fasting with life span extension being more pronounced in males than females. Additionally, we analyzed the transcriptomic changes in various key tissues including brain, liver, muscle and intestines resulting from 10 weeks of alternate day fasting. Overall, our results of how late-onset nutritional interventions influence the transcriptome may provide novel insight into pathways associated with nonlinear ageing, and potential targets to treat age-associated disease and increase healthspan still at advanced age.

AUTOBIOGRAFIE DI EMIGRATI DA SAN MARCO IN LAMIS: CARATTERISTICHE LINGUISTICHE E TESTUALI
Creators: name: Salvatore, Eugenio
Publisher: name: Italiano LinguaDue
Year: 2019

description: L’intervento prende in esame quattro autobiografie prodotte da emigrati in Australia originari della cittadina pugliese di San Marco in Lamis (FG). I testi vengono presi in esame per tre aspetti: l’importanza della competenza linguistico-culturale nella vicenda emigratoria; la veste fono-morfologica dei documenti, in cui si rintraccia l’incidenza del sostrato dialettale accanto, però, a spinte non sempre ordinate verso lo standard; l’aspetto testuale di documenti elaborati per essere compresi da interlocutori non noti a chi scrive. L’attenzione maggiore del saggio è rivolta proprio a quest’ultimo aspetto, nel tentativo di cogliere come vengano trattati (in modo linguisticamente rudimentale ma comunicativamente efficace) i contenuti impliciti e gli snodi contenutistici del testo. In generale, le caratteristiche linguistiche rintracciate in questi documenti sono comuni alla comunicazione epistolare in contesto di emigrazione; si rintracciano tuttavia anche prerogative proprie dei nostri documenti, e derivanti dalla particolare natura testuale di scritti narrativi ampi in cui non ricorrono le consuete convenzioni epistolari che agevolano gli scriventi di lettere. Autobiographies of emigrants from San Marco in Lamis: linguistic and textual characteristics The essay examines four autobiographies written by emigrants in Australia originally from San Marco in Lamis (FG), a town in Puglia. Three features of these texts are taken under consideration: the relevance of the linguistic-cultural competence; the phono-morphological aspect of the documents, where the dialectal substrate with efforts towards standardization can be found; the textual aspect of the texts written to be understood by an unknown audience. The main focus is on the latter aspect, in an attempt to understand how the implicit contents and the content articulations of the texts are treated (in a linguistically rudimentary but communicatively effective way). In general, the linguistic features of these texts are also found in epistolary communication within the context of emigration; however, there are some specific features which arise from the particular textual nature of broad narrative scripts, in which the usual conventions of letter-writing are not present.

L’ideazione del progetto si basa su principi della Frame Semantics e della Grammatica delle Costruzioni, da un lato, e sulle esigenze degli apprendenti di italiano (LS e L2) dall’altro. L’obiettivo è esaminare le 600 locuzioni idiomatiche verbali registrate nel database e presentare in modo dettagliato, chiaro e comprensibile, le caratteristiche e le restrizioni formali e semantico-pragmatiche. L’implementazione lessicografica digitale avviene nella forma dei cosiddetti fraseoframe, che rappresentano il sapere linguistico necessario per la comprensione e l’uso attivo dei fraseologismi. Usage-based phraseology of Italian: Digital lexicography for learners between Frame Semantics and Construction Grammar This article presents a research project on Italian phraseology carried out at the University of Düsseldorf. The theoretical framework of the project was based on principles of Frame Semantics and Construction Grammar on the one hand, and foreign language learning requirements on the other (Italian as a foreign, second or third language). The aim was to examine 600 verbal idioms recorded in the database and to present, in a detailed but clear and comprehensible way, the formal and semantic-pragmatic characteristics and restrictions. The digital lexicographic implementation took the form of so-called phraseoframes, which represent linguistic knowledge necessary for the understanding and active use of the idioms in question.

description: Secondo alcune recenti indagini gli studenti del XXI secolo, pur avendo familiarità con le tecnologie, non possono essere definiti digital learnes, ovvero studenti che utilizzano la tecnologia anche per la formazione, e in particolare essi prediligono l’utilizzo di materiali cartacei per lo studio delle lingue. Con il presente contributo si intende fornire un ulteriore aggiornamento del profilo digitale degli studenti universitari stranieri confrontandolo con quello di studenti universitari italiani, al fine di verificare eventuali variazioni dipendenti sia dalla variabile tempo sia dall’ulteriore diffusione delle tecnologie nel campo della formazione. In generale i risultati emersi dal presente studio, pur rilevando una maggiore permeabilità della tecnologia nel settore della formazione linguistica, confermano la preferenza del tipo di supporti tradizionali e sono anche in linea con diversi studi di tipo cognitivo relativi alla comprensione del testo e ai supporti digitali secondo i quali gli apprendenti, indipendentemente dall’età, e anche dalla nazionalità, per il loro studio preferiscono l’utilizzo di supporti cartacei. Italian l2 study materials preferences: paper or digital? According to some recent surveys, although students in the 21st century are familiar with technology, they cannot be defined as digital learners, i.e. students who also use technology for studying, and in particular they prefer using paper materials to study languages. The purpose of this contribution is to provide a further update of the digital profile of foreign university students in comparison to Italian university students, in order to verify possible differences depending on both the time variable and the further spread of technology in the field of education. In general, the results of this study, while noting a greater presence of technology in the field of language training, confirm the preference for traditional media,. This is in line with several cognitive studies related to the understanding of texts and digital media according to which learners, regardless of age, and nationality, prefer the use of paper resources to study language.

description: Ferroptosis is a type of regulatory cell death, caused by excessive lipid peroxidation This study aimed to explore whether ionizing radiation could induce ferroptosis in glioma cells and whether carbonic anhydrase 9 (CA9) knockdown could enhance the killing effect of ionizing radiation on hypoxic glioma cells through ferroptosis. The protein levels of Acyl-CoA Synthetase Long Chain Family Member 4 (ACSL4) were detected by Western blot in glioma cells irradiated by different doses of X-ray. The relative mRNA levels of ferroptosis markers and intracellular iron-associated proteins were detected by Real-time qPCR. Lipid peroxidation of glioma cells was detected by oxidation-sensitive probe C11-BODIPY581/591 staining. CCK-8 Assay was used to detect cell viability after X-ray irradiation. Cloning formation assay was used to assess the radiosensitivity of glioma cells. The exposure of cell surface calreticulin was measured by immunofluorescence staining. X-ray induced lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis markers expression in U251 and GL261 glioma cells. Knockdown of CA9 in hypoxic glioma cells significantly altered the expression of iron regulation-related proteins and enhanced X-ray-induced ferroptosis and radiosensitivity. The ferroptosis inhibitor significantly improved the survival of cells irradiated by X-ray, while ferroptosis inducers (FINs) enhanced the lethal effect of X-ray on cells. Enhancing ferroptosis in glioma cells promoted the exposure and release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Ionizing radiation can induce ferroptosis in glioma cells. CA9 knockdown can enhance the radiosensitivity of hypoxic glioma cells and overcome the resistance of ferroptosis under hypoxia. Enhancing ferroptosis will become a new idea to improve the efficacy of radiotherapy for glioma.
title: DE LA GAZETTE DES EAUX À LA PRESSE THERMALE ET CLIMATIQUE : UN EXEMPLE DE PRESSE THERMALE (1858-1940)
Creators: name: Carribon, Carole
Publisher: name: Société française de médecine thermale
Year: 2015

description:  La Gazette des Eaux, lancée en 1858, et La Presse thermale et climatique, qui lui a succédé à partir de juin 1920, constituent un exemple exceptionnel dans l’histoire de la presse thermale. Contrairement aux éphémères gazettes locales publiées dans les stations hydrominérales françaises, cette revue est une publication non saisonnière et à vocation nationale. De plus, sa longévité et la régularité de sa parution sont uniques ; sous la Troisième République, elle ne cesse en effet de paraître qu’à trois reprises : entre septembre 1870 et avril 1871, août 1914 et début 1917, et enfin entre mai et septembre 1940.
Une telle longévité implique nécessairement une évolution. La Gazette des Eaux était à ses débuts un journal médico-littéraire oscillant entre information scientifique et chronique mondaine. Elle a certes connu une période difficile au moment de la guerre franco-allemande de 1870-1871, mais sans que cela remette en question cette double identité médico-littéraire.
Cependant, à partir de la fin du XIX siècle et sous l’impulsion de ses directeurs successifs – les
docteurs Gaston Morice et Victor Gardette – elle est devenue une revue de plus en plus spécialisée. Son changement d’appellation en 1920, lorsqu’elle a pris le nom de Presse thermale et climatique, et sa stabilité durant l’entre-deux-guerres ont conforté sa transformation en une revue de référence. C’est ce qui en fait aujourd’hui une source particulièrement intéressante pour l’histoire de l’hydrologie et de la climatologie.
description: La Gazette des Eaux, first issued in 1858, and La Presse thermale et climatique, which succeeded it in 1920, are an exceptional example in the history of the thermal press. Contrary to the short-lived local newspapers published in the French thermal resorts, this journal was not a seasonal publication and it had a national scope. It was also unique for its longevity and its regularity - in the Third Republic, it was only interrupted thrice: between September 1870 and April 1871, between August 1914 and the beginning of 1917, and between May and September 1940.
This very longevity induced an evolution. La Gazette des Eaux was at first a mix of medical and literary journal, constantly oscillating between scientific information and society gossip. Despite the difficulties of the Franco-German War of 1870-1871, it did not shed this double identity. It was only at the end of the 19th century that it became a more specialised review, at the behest of its two successive editors in chief: Dr Gaston Morice and Dr Victor Gardette. This transformation into a reference journal was comforted by its change of name in 1920 and its stability during the inter-war period. This explains why it is today a particularly interesting source for the history of hydrology and climatology.

description: Il documento che qui viene presentato nella traduzione italiana propone un modello semplice, ma di ampio respiro, che ha un duplice scopo: concettualizzare le scelte politiche di educazione linguistica incentrate sulla mobilità degli attori sociali – in particolare degli allievi ai diversi livelli di scolarità – che è responsabilità delle istituzioni e, nello specifico, della scuola definire e attuare; indicare obiettivi istituzionali e politici, perché questo modello e l’illustrazione che ne viene fornita per i contesti scolastici non si limitano agli aspetti didattici e linguistici. Essi coinvolgono l’intero progetto educativo in cui la mediazione, in forme diverse, gioca un ruolo tanto più determinante in quanto le questioni che riguardano la mobilità, l’alterità e i gruppi sociali sono decisive nelle società multietniche, multilingui e pluriculturali contemporanee. Education, mobility, otherness. The mediation functions of schools The document presented here in the Italian translation has a dual purpose: cognitive, insofar as it proposes a simple – but wide-ranging – model for conceptualising language education policy choices based on the mobility of social agents; and institutional and political, because this model and the illustrations that are given of it in school contexts are not confined to teaching and linguistic aspects. They present an entire educational project in which mediation in its different forms plays an especially crucial role given the centrality of issues relating to mobility, otherness and social groups in the multiethnic, multilingual and multicultural contemporary societies.

Presence economy
Lucid media
Meme ontology
Conscious digital resistance
Web3 and symbolic value
Metaphysics of entertainment
Ethical humor
Post-capitalist attention models
Cultural critique through play

description: This philosophical manifesto establishes the GAGNetwork as more than a digital entertainment platform — it is presented as a symbolic field of resistance, critique, and ontological expression. By bridging humor, pop culture, and philosophical depth, GAG reclaims the act of satire as a critical gesture of presence in digital culture. Aligned with the XChronos project, it proposes a semantic architecture where memes, irony, and engagement become instruments of consciousness. In a landscape often dominated by algorithmic noise, GAG emerges as a lucid voice of symbolic integrity, where play, critique, and metaphysics converge.
title: AMMONITES OF THE SUBFAMILY ZAPALIINAE FROM THE LOWER TITHONIAN OF ESTANCIA MARÍA JUANA, VACA MUERTA FORMATION (PORTADA COVUNCO MEMBER), NEUQUÉN BASIN, ARGENTINA

description: A new collection of ammonites from the Picunleufuense Zone (standard base of the Andean Tithonian) of the locality Estancia María Juana (southern Neuquén Basin, Argentina) has provided abundant and well preserved material of new transients of Indansites picunleufuense and Choicensisphinctes platyconus. These transients are described and a detailed review of the early evolution of the Indansites lineage is presented. The meaning of changes in rib density, variations within the microconchs (males) and the length of the bodychamber in Indansites picunleufuense are discussed. It is concluded that the changes in rib density which characterize the successive macroconchs of the transients indicate changes in the rate of shell-growth. The more densely ribbed phragmocone of later transients would have had lower growth rates, which would also explain their smaller adult size. The microconchs show high variation in adult size suggesting high plasticity in the size-age maturation, most likely caused by influence of seasonal environmental conditions. A large small-macroconch-like lapetted microconch, coming from the close locality Picún Leufú, is interpreted as a new case of sex-change.

title: FACIES AND ARCHITECTURE OF A SAND-RICH TURBIDITE SYSTEM IN AN EVOLVING COLLISIONAL-TRENCH BASIN: A CASE HISTORY FROM THE UPPER CRETACEOUS-PALAEOCENE GOTTERO SYSTEM (NW APENNINES)

description: This study documents the main depositional elements of a dynamically-controlled sand-rich deep-water turbidite system (Upper Cretaceous–Palaeocene Gottero system, north-west Italy). The large exposures and the wide range of facies and deep-water sub-environments recognised, ranging from proximal channels, unconfined proximal and distal lobes and confined basin plain deposits make this an instructive case study to investigate the spatial-temporal relationships between fan features (channels and lobes) and confined to ponded basin-plain deposits developed in a trench-fill basin. The study focus on stratigraphic and palaeo-environmental reconstruction of the Gottero system in the western sector of the basin. Bed types, facies associations and depositional sub-environments are described in main outcrop locations and used to feed a comprehensive bed-scale database. A coherent stratigraphic framework of the system is proposed for the first time, linking its stratigraphic evolution with the collisional-trench context of the Ligurian units during the Upper Cretaceous-Palaeocene. It includes a first stage in which the Gottero was a prograding extensive basin-floor fan developed in a relatively unconfined setting (Gottero 1 and 2), and a second stage in which the system deepens and got progressively confined and segmented in multiple distal depocentres, dominated by sheet-like high magnitude events, meanwhile the proximal area forms a series of fan elements which display an overall retrograding trend (Gottero 3). The basin fill terminates with the deposition of the Giaiette mass-transport complex interepreted to represent the final collapse of the growing Ligurian accrectionary wedge.

The league of Arab States and the promotion and protection of human rights
Creators: name: Al-Ajaji, Mohammed S. M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis is an analytical study of the League of Arab States regional human rights system. It involves an examination of the League's concept of human rights as represented in the League's two draft instruments - the draft Arab Declaration of Human Rights and the draft Arab Convention on Human Rights - as well as its machinery of implementation as represented in the Permanent Arab Commission on Human Rights. Our analysis of the League's human rights is conducted in the light of the political, cultural and ideological factors prevailing in the Arab world. The League's failure to establish an effective regional human rights system is due largely to its inherent limitations and to the constant negative attitudes of Arab States toward human rights protection. Unless some drastic changes in these determinate factors take place, the situation is likely to remain the same in years to come.

description: Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RAN) is a new paradigm within mobile telecommunication systems. C-RAN represents a shift from traditional C-RAN represents a shift from traditional C-RAN represents a shift from traditional Stand alone radio base stations (BS) which are costly to setup and suffer from under utilization of fluctuating users. C-RAN represents a shift to pooling of base station resources in a Baseband Units (BBU) as well distributed remote radio heads (RRH). With the addition of centralized resources, mobile networks are moving towards real-time virtualised platforms and open interoperable interfaces, replacing the monolithic vendor provider model with a flexible resource market pool.Next Generation RAN (NG-RAN) represents a next stage in radio networks, leveraging Software Defined Radios and Software Defined Networks to provide increased flexibility in the provisioning of radio and computing resources to mobile networks. Unlike pure cloud providers, NG-RAN provides true edge computing capabilities that allow for new class of low-latency and approximate computation applications.The works presented here examines an architecture for improved urban localization using through a Mobile Augmented Reality application. Using a localized edge nodes, we are show improved latency improvements over traditional cloud based times. Additionally, a detailed dive on NG-RAN Virtualisation techniques is examined through use of containers. Finally, a examination into the privacy issues of uploading sensitive data and a system for mobile continuous authentication is examined.

short- term simulations

description: In order to derive indicators for the future grid and market stability, in this paper an agent-based model is intro- duced, to simulate various scenarios. This includes new market designs, market mixes, emerging technological inventions and new regulations. Consumers demand energy based on seasonal variations or changing prices. The suppliers’ production might also depend on seasonal variations, on the local solar irradiation or its flexibility; the ability to react to the market requests. The model introduced in this paper has been used to describe an example scenario of the year 2035, representing a market mix that includes a variety different consumers and suppliers. Eventually it shows, how the model can be applied to model various scenarios and how the resulting grids frequency, the market prices and suppliers profit can be used as indicators for the grid and market stability.

description: Most of the research on fossil mammals from Umbria (central Italy) has been carried out in the southwestern branch of the Tiber basin, due to its paleontological richness. This portion of the basin extends from Perugia to Terni and corresponds to a well-defined half-graben filled with fluvial-lacustrine deposits. The paleontological sample presented here was discovered in a sand and gravel quarry at Podere San Lorenzo, East of the town of Deruta. The stratigraphic succession exposed in the quarry is no longer visible, but we describe here a new outcrop (Palazzone), which is not far from Podere San Lorenzo and shows comparable facies associations. The two successions were deposited in a fluvial environment characterized by an average reduction of the hydrodynamic energy from the bottom upwards. They are referred to the Early Pleistocene Santa Maria di Ciciliano Subsyntheme (Madonna dei Bagni Lithofacies). Large mammal remains are attributed to Mammuthus cf. meridionalis (Nesti, 1825), Stephanorhinus etruscus (Falconer, 1859), Equus stenonis Cocchi, 1867, Leptobos cf. etruscus (Falconer, 1868), ‘Pseudodama’ nestii (Azzaroli, 1947), and Sus strozzii Forsyth Major, 1881. Some hyena coprolites are also reported. The assemblage is typical of the early Late Villafranchian Land Mammal Age and can be referred to the Olivola/Tasso Faunal Units (about 2.0–1.8 Ma). This is in agreement with the alleged age of some other assemblages found in the southwestern branch of the Tiber basin (e.g., Torre Picchio, Villa San Faustino, Colle Sant’Andrea, Pantalla).
