description: Ce papier mesure et compare le niveau d’efcience de neuf banques islamiques et onze banques conventionnelles au cours de la période 2005- 2011 dans cinq pays : le Qatar, le Bahreïn, l’Arabie saoudite, les Emirats Arabes Unis et le Koweït L’objectif est de montrer s’il existe ou non une diﬀérence signifcative entre les niveaux d’efcience enregistrés par ces diﬀérentes banques La démarche consiste à mener une étude comparative de l’efcience opérationnelle (1), grâce à l’analyse d’enveloppement des données (DEA), en analysant les inputs et les outputs adaptés à chaque catégorie des banques étudiées et de déterminer l’impact de la crise fnancière de 2007-2008 sur l’efcience des deux modes de fnancement. Les résultats confrment qu'il n'y a pas de diﬀérences signifcatives entre les banques conventionnelles et leurs consœurs islamiques en termes d’efcience Nous avons procédé aussi à la mesure de l’eﬀet de quelques variables qui ont généralement un impact sur l’activité d’une banque à côté du processus interne de production, à savoir : la taille moyenne des banques, leur âge et leur concentration sur le marché L’estimation du modèle que nous avons proposé a permis de confrmer que les banques de grande taille sont plus efcientes que les banques de petite taille.

description: La expansión del islam no significó la desaparición del cristianismo en esos territorios,
donde, en condiciones más o menos precarias, según las épocas y los lugares, se ha mantenido
hasta hoy; pero incluso en los escritos cristianos, el latín fue sustituido por el árabe,
hasta el punto de que esta última lengua se utilizó para el aprendizaje de la latina, como
atestigua el llamado Glosario de Leiden. El texto que se comentará en este estudio corresponde precisamente a esa literatura cristiana en árabe, mucho más abundante de lo que la erudición occidental supone. Los manuscritos cristianos del occidente del mundo árabe conservados son, en todo caso, muchos menos que los del oriente, lo que hace que los estudios sobre los primeros tengan todavía un mayor interés para el conocimiento de la historia lingüística del Mediterráneo occidental.

description: L'évaluation du taux de change d’équilibre de moyen terme à travers les trois mesures – l'équilibre macroéconomique, le taux de change d'équilibre et la viabilité extérieure – suggère une surévaluation du dirham marocain qui a atteint son niveau maximal en 2012 Cette évolution est liée à la dégradation du solde du compte courant, comme en témoigne le creusement du défcit commercial, et à la détérioration du défcit budgétaire En somme, ce travail conclut que la surévaluation du dirham marocain a bien plus de déterminants que le déséquilibre extérieur Si une politique de dévaluation semble être inappropriée dans le contexte actuel, la consolidation de l’équilibre macroéconomique se révèle alors comme une condition primordiale pour éviter une possible surévaluation du dirham marocain.

description: DNA or gene signal detection is of great significance in many fields including medical examination, intracellular molecular monitoring, and gene disease signal diagnosis, but detection of DNA or gene signals in a low concentration with instant visual results remains a challenge. In this work, a universal fast and visual colorimetric detection method for DNA signals is proposed. Specifically, a DNA signal amplification 'circuit' based on DNA strand displacement is firstly designed to amplify the target DNA signals, and then thiol modified hairpin DNA strands and gold nanoparticles are used to make signal detection results visualized in a colorimetric manner. If the target DNA signal exists, the gold nanoparticles aggregate and settle down with color changing from dark red to grey quickly; otherwise, the gold nanoparticles' colloids remain stable in dark red. The proposed method provides a novel way to detect quickly DNA or gene signals in low concentrations with instant visual results. When applied in real-life, it may provide a universal colorimetric method for gene disease signal diagnosis.
The growth of discs and bulges during hierarchical galaxy formation - I. Fast evolution versus secular processes

description: We present a theoretical model for the evolution of mass, angular momentum and size of galaxy discs and bulges, and we implement it into the semi-analytic galaxy formation code, Semi-Analytic Galaxy Evolution. The model follows both secular and violent evolutionary channels, including smooth accretion, disc instabilities, minor and major mergers. We find that the combination of our recipe with hierarchical clustering produces two distinct populations of bulges: Merger-driven bulges, akin to classical bulges and ellipticals, and instability-driven bulges, akin to secular (or pseudo-)bulges. The model mostly reproduces the mass-size relation of gaseous and stellar discs, the evolution of the mass-size relation of ellipticals, the Faber-Jackson relation, and the magnitude-colour diagram of classical and secular bulges. The model predicts only a small overlap of merger-driven and instability-driven components in the same galaxy, and predicts different bulge types as a function of galaxy mass and disc fraction. Bulge type also affects the star formation rate and colour at a given luminosity. The model predicts a population of merger-driven red ellipticals that dominate both the low-mass and high-mass ends of the galaxy population, and span all dynamical ages; merger-driven bulges in disc galaxies are dynamically old and do not interfere with subsequent evolution of the star-forming component. Instability-driven bulges dominate the population at intermediate galaxy masses, especially thriving in massive discs. The model green valley is exclusively populated by instability-driven bulge hosts. Through the present implementation, the mass accretion history is perceivable in the galaxy structure, morphology and colours.

description: This letter, dated May 13th 1918, is from Major CW Charrington to Mrs C Carr (my great grandmother) of Lewisham, expressing his sympathy over the death of her son Captain Leslie George Carr, MC and Bar(my great uncle), aged 21.

Editor's Comment:

The citation for Leslie George Carr's MC read as follows:

Supplement to the London Gazette, 26th July 1918:

'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He remained behind with his Lewis gun till his company had taken up a new position, covering the withdrawl and inflicting heavy losses on the enemy at close range. On each occasion, when he rejoined his company, he immediately reorganised and gave battle. During the whole operation he showed great ability and coolness under very difficult conditions.'

Citation for the bar:

Supplement to the London Gazette, 16th September, 1918:

'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty during a hostile attack, when, with two companies, he held on to a position and covered the retirement of the battalion until it was complete. With great skill he then withdrew his men through a gap in the enemy's lines, and succeeded in rejoining the battalion without the loss of a man. (M.C. gazetted 26th July, 1918.)'
Capt. Leslie Carr, 1st Bn. London Regt., 167 Bde., 56th Division, (and sometime attached 4th Bn. South Staffordshire Regt.) died of wounds 27th April 1918, and is buried in plot VII. B. 42, Boulogne Eastern Cemetery.

Deterministic bit-stream digital neurons

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In this paper, we present the design of a deterministic bit-stream neuron, which makes use of the memory rich architecture of fine-grained field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). It is shown that deterministic bit streams provide the same accuracy as much longer stochastic bit streams. As these bit streams are processed serially, this allows neurons to be implemented that are much faster than those that utilize stochastic logic. Furthermore, due to the memory rich architecture of fine-grained FPGAs, these neurons still require only a small amount of logic to implement. The design presented here has been implemented on a Virtex FPGA, which allows a very regular layout facilitating efficient usage of space. This allows for the construction of neural networks large enough to solve complex tasks at a speed comparable to that provided by commercially available neural-network hardware.

description: 1492 was a momentous year for Spain. The Genoese explorer Christopher Columbus set foot in the Americas, leading to the continent's largescale colonization by Europeans. Columbus did so by order of the so-called Catholic Monarchs of Spain, Queen Isabella I of Castile and King Ferdinand II of Aragon, while actually trying to discover a new travel route to Asia. Those same monarchs ordered, also in 1492, that all Jews be expelled from Spain, as they wanted to make sure that conversos, Jews-turned-Christians, would not return to their old faith. This led to mass migration movements, and expelled Jews fanned out across the whole of Europe and North-Africa. It was only in 2015 that Spain officially annulled this expulsion. Columbus' discovery of the Americas and the driving away of the Jews had horrendous consequences. It led to an unprecedented and unscrupulous exploitation of an entire continent and greatly reduced cultural diversity in Spain. A homogeneous empire was in the making, and how support this better than by creating a uniform language?

Effettivit� della tutela giurisdizionale nel processo tributario: prospettiva interna ed europea
Creators: name: LUCARELLI, Antonella
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2014

description: The main objective of this thesis is to evaluate the effectiveness of judicial protection in taxation.
The first chapter contains an in-depth analysis of the constitutional provision that guarantees due process, followed by the analysis of art. 6CEDU, whose content has been included in art. 111 of the Constitution.
Then we analyze the Italian tax process as a whole. At first we consider the elements of taxing jurisdiction: Tax Commissions, their evolution from administrative to judicial authorities, and their scope; then we consider the complete scope of "tax jurisdiction?.
The third chapter is entirely dedicated to the analysis of evidences admitted in the tax process and we try to consider the opportunity to avoid the oral evidence ban, responsible not to encourage an evolution of the tax process towards fulfilling the canons of due process.
Finally, we analyze the UK tax process that is currently based on only two courts, the First Tier and Upper Tribunal. Here, the management of tax disputes, absolutely appreciable in terms of deflationary litigation management tools, for carrying out the process respecting both the parties and impartiality of the judge, is a bit less appreciable in relation to the duration of the process, not always "reasonable". It?s been interesting to discover that the evidence from witnesses is allowed just as in other processes. The need to compare our tax process with that of another State is felt because even the tax system, like any other legal system, is not limited within the boundaries in which a single legislature exercises its power.

description: Exact 398 jaar geleden ontsnapte de beroemde Nederlandse jurist, filoloog en diplomaat Hugo Grotius (de Groot, 1583–1645) op spectaculaire wijze uit Slot Loevestein in een kist, geholpen door zijn vrouw en zijn dienstmeid. Grotius zat daar een levenslange straf uit vanwege zijn remonstrantse sympathieën. Het regime was er evenwel nogal losjes: Grotius had de toestemming om boeken te laten aandragen in een grote kist en in alle rust te werken. Na twee jaar gevangenschap en veel oefenen, legde Grotius zich doodstil in zijn boekenkist en liet zich heimelijk uit het slot wegvoeren. De ontsnapping was een ongezien succes. Gekleed als metselaar vluchtte Grotius weg naar Parijs, waar hij als diplomaat voor Zweden aan de slag ging. Het lot van zijn beroemde kist is onduidelijk, al beweren twee Nederlandse musea deze in hun bezit te hebben, het Amsterdamse Rijksmuseum en het Delftse Prinsenhof. Wel staat vast dat de kist een bron van literaire inspiratie is geweest voor Hugo Grotius' vriend Daniel Heinsius (1580–1655), geboren te Gent en hoogleraar aan de Leidse universiteit. Heinsius heeft een merkwaardig gedicht geschreven over Grotius' kist, gesteld in het Oudgrieks zowaar!
The relationship between stock prices and macroeconomic factors in the Nigerian stock market
Creators: name: OLOWE, RUFUS AYODEJI
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2007

description: This paper examines the dynamic equilibrium relationship between a group of macroeconomic variables and the Nigerian Stock Exchange index, using Johansen?s (1991) vector error correction model. The macroeconomic variables investigated include the industrial production index, the consumer price index, money supply, oil prices and treasury bill rate. The estimation of the vector error correction model was done under two alternative definitions of money supply: M1 and M2. The results show that a cointegrating relation exists among macroeconomic variables. The cointegration relationship is consistent with earlier studies, unlike the signs of some of the variables, which are inconsistent with earlier studies.

Pulsating heat pipes. Numerical Modelling and Experimental Assessment
Creators: name: MAMELI, Mauro
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2012

description: The present thesis is the result of a three year research study on the developing and experimental validation of a numerical model for the thermal-hydraulic simulation of Closed Loop Pulsating Heat Pipes. The project has been carried out in the framework of the PRIN-2009 and put the basis for a fruitful collaboration between the University of Bergamo and the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IITK, India).
The first two years were mainly devoted to improve the theoretical model and to the subsequent implementation of new subroutines. During this first stage the model has been validated by means of experimental data available from the literature. In the last year an actual CLPHP test-rig has been designed, built and tested. The outcome of the proprietor experimental apparatus provided new data on the heat transfer capability of two phase flows in mini-channels and allowed to perform a more accurate quantitative comparison with the simulation results.
Although the final version of the numerical model is able to satisfactorily reproduce many trends of actual PHP devices, further work is needed in order to understand some open issues related to the physics and to release a reliable software tool for the PHP design.

B. C. Prevost was a wool merchant before the beginning of hostilities, which incidentally found him stranded in Leipzig, repatriated first to Switzerland and then to Marseilles from where he returned to Australia. His father was senior partner in a Wool Merchant house dealing in Adelaide, South Australia and New Zealand. Hence there are many references to the wool trade throughout this correspondence and mention is made of many wool merchant contacts in the United Kingdom. The letters were typed out and loose-bound by a cousin, together with those of his brother Charles, also fighting in France, so that they could be handed around to the extended family and friends.

The remaining 162 pages of transcript will be put on line over the next few weeks.

title: Intentions and Interpretations: Form, Narrativity and Performance Approaches to the 19th-Century Piano Ballade
Creators: name: Hadjiandreou, Andri
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Musical performance, narrativity, piano ballades, 19th century, performance approaches, interpretation

description: This thesis is concerned with how a performer might engage with the supposed narrative elements in piano ballades of the nineteenth century, and more generally with the performative principles that would be needed to sustain a narrative realisation of music wherever it seemed appropriate. Of course, the presence of narrative elements in music is usually defined not according to the methods employed by performers, but to those familiar from literary, historical, contextual and analytic studies of the music-as-a-text. Therefore a first step is to examine the tensions between methodologies centred on the “work-as-a-text”, and those concerned with the act of performance. Some important distinctions between critical interpretations and performance interpretations are suggested, even if the former sometimes provide an instigating basis for the latter. Out of this comes a need to demonstrate that, in respect to musical “meaning”, performance has a generative as well as reproductive role, and that the processes and decisions embedded in the acts of rehearsal and the “unfolding-through-time” of performances are central to the creation and emergence of such meanings, including narrative meanings. Next, the evidence for the existence of narrative meanings in music is placed in a particular historical context (that concerned with the development of the piano ballade and its conventions), and in the framework of the changing aesthetic attitudes towards programme music in the first half of the nineteenth century –attitudes that played out in radically different ways in relation to those piano works by Chopin, Schumann and Liszt that form part of this study. The focus then turns to possible and actual performances of these works, and questions are asked about how performances, as implicative sonic shapes and gestural events, for example, might be analysed and theorised by employing recent methodologies of the discipline of performance studies. A final step is to develop and test those findings against a series of case studies of performance approaches to particular works – by Kullak, Chopin, and Liszt – the last two of which are included in the recital that accompanies this doctoral investigation.

Discovery and Characterization of Novel Selective NKCC1 Inhibitors for Down Syndrome and Brain Disorders with Depolarizing GABAergic Transmission
Creators: name: SAVARDI, ANNALISA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2019

description: Proper GABAergic transmission through Cl-permeable GABAA receptors is fundamental for physiological brain development and function. Indeed, defective GABAergic signaling -due to a high ratio of expression of the Cl importer NKCC1 and Cl exporter KCC2- has been implicated in several neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., Down syndrome, DS). Interestingly, NKCC1 inhibition by the FDAapproved diuretic bumetanide reverts cognitive deficits in the TS65Dn mouse models of DS and core symptoms in a number of models of other brain disorders. However, the required chronic treatment with bumetanide is burdened by its diuretic side effects caused by the antagonism of the kidney Cl- importer
NKCC2, which leads to hypokalemia and jeopardizes drug compliance. Crucially, these issues would be solved by selective NKCC1 inhibitors, thus devoid of the diuretic effect. Starting from bumetanide?s structure, we applied a computational ligand-based approach to design new molecular entities that we tested in vitro for their capacity to selectively block NKCC1. Among the 3 newly-identified and highly promising NKCC1 inhibitors, one showed excellent solubility and metabolic stability in vitro. Moreover, analysis of WT and Ts65Dn mice systemically treated with this NKCC1 inhibitor revealed no diuretic effect. Finally, chronic treatment with our novel, selective NKCC1 inhibitor was able to rescue cognitive deficits in Ts65Dn mice in four different memory tasks, with no major signs of toxicity. Thus, our selective NKCC1 inhibitor devoid of the diuretic effect could represent a suitable and solid therapeutic strategy for the treatment of Down syndrome and all the brain disorders with depolarizing GABAergic transmission.

description: Het Latijn, de taal van de Romeinen, heeft lange tijd zijn stempel gedrukt op de taalkunde en taalbeschrijving, niet alleen in de oudheid, maar ook in de middeleeuwen en de Renaissance, wanneer men de talige diversiteit van de wereld gestaag ontdekte. De meest uiteenlopende talen werden met wisselend succes gegoten in de mal van het Latijnse rededelenmodel. Geleerden gingen telkens op zoek naar acht basisbestanddelen in een taal: werkwoord, naamwoord, voornaamwoord, deelwoord, bijwoord, voorzetsel, voegwoord en tussenwerpsel (interjectie). In de Renaissance kwam er een keerpunt. Het Grieks en haar rijke grammaticale traditie werden herontdekt. Hoewel de Latijnse spraakkunst grotendeels haar mosterd haalde bij haar Griekse voorganger, zijn er toch een aantal opvallende verschillen.
Numerical investigation of primary break-up of conical swirled jets
Creators: name: GALBIATI, Claudio
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2016

description: Primary break-up is a hard element to be described into the atomization chain, since experimental works are rare especially for swirl atomizers. In the past, different models had been developed to define the mechanism which leads to break-up of jets and, in this way, the characteristics of the sub-sequent produced spray. These models had been validated against experimental data in simplified conditions, for example using round jets; however they cannot be generalized for all the other categories. Moreover, these models were based on simplified assumptions, for example they neglected turbulence. Thus their application to conical swirled jets is tricky and could produce misleading results. In absence of experimental data, Volume of Fluid Direct Numerical Simulations (VOF DNS) could help to provide more information about the produced primary spray and its characteristics, such as droplets velocity components, location, size and shape in the whole investigated domain.
However, in order to simulate conical swirled jets from aeronautical pressure swirl atomizers, realistic velocity profiles of both liquid and gas phases together with the characteristics of the external environment are required as input parameter. Semi-empirical or analytical correlations, indeed, may provide an estimation of these data, but they can be properly applied only to a small group of test cases, if compared with the huge amount of possible configurations with different geometries, liquid properties and operating conditions. VOF RANS and LES are performed to provide the internal nozzle flow characteristics, and the subsequent initial jet characteristics.
For this reasons, in this work VOF Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) and Large Eddy Simulation (LES) have been performed to provide a proper simulation of the internal nozzle flow and the subsequent initial jet characteristics. In addition, a sensitivity analysis has been performed to evaluate the effect of various turbulence model (i.e. RNG k-e, Reynolds Stress Model and LES) on the final numerical results.
Then, these informations have been applied to reproduce the following jet development and its subsequent break-up. To reach this goal a DNS code from the University of Stuttgart, Free Surface 3D (FS3D), has been adapted and used. As shown, the achieved results could be useful to define the principal phenomena involved in the atomization process. Moreover, comparison with a well known analytical method are presented in order to underline possible drawback and improvements.
For both the internal and the external flow numerical simulations, a grid dependence study, as well as the effect of various operating conditions, has been investigated to exclude any important and unwanted dependences.

Flow boiling of refrigerants inside a glass minichannel
Creators: name: BALDASSARI, Chiara
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2013

description: This thesis consists of two parts; the first presents a critical review of the state of the art of research on internal forced convection boiling in microchannels and in microgravity while the second focuses on the experimental investigation of the onset of nucleate boiling. The critical review wants to answer to the necessity to define in the most complete way the status-of-the-art of this important research field and to critically investigate the successes and the weaknesses of the current scientific literature. The idea to consider the channel microsize together with the microgravity effects in a single review is due to the fact that the transition between confined and unconfined bubble flows may be defined using dimensionless numbers, such as the E�tv�s number. This is linked to the tube diameter and the gravity forces and it tends to zero either when the gravity tends to zero or when the tube diameter tends to zero, but physical phenomena appear different considering separately either only the tube size or only the microgravity condition. It is pointed out that some literature results are still incongruous and that the global picture of boiling process remains still unclear. Part II contains the experimental investigation of boiling and in particular of onset of nucleate boiling in a glass minichannel using two different refrigerants R-134a and R-245fa. During the experimental activity some new interesting trends appeared, linked to the nucleation that always starts from the upper side of the heater and only later from the lower side of the heater. The onset of nucleate boiling was investigated thanks to the transparent ITO heater that allow the visualization of the boiling process. The heat transfer coefficients are evaluated as function of the vapour quality, heat flux and wall superheat and they increase increasing the mass flux values.

A Thousand Years Of Model Letter-Writers
Creators: name: AUSTIN JONES, FRANCES
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo

description: Considerando la scrittura di lettere come parte della retorica, questo articolo si propone di tracciare gli sviluppi dei manuali di corrispondenza in Inghilterra dalle origini ad oggi, partendo dai formulari in latino e in francese. In Inghilterra i primi manuali apparvero nel tredicesimo secolo, ma solo nel sedicesimo secolo iniziarono ad essere redatti in lingua inglese. In seguito, gradualmente, si orientarono sempre pi� verso le necessit� dell?uomo comune piuttosto che quelle dell?uomo di lettere. Esistono due principali tipi di manuali: da una parte quelli destinati ad un uso pratico e, dall?altra, quelli finalizzati all?intrattenimento, sviluppatisi successivamente. In questo articolo verranno analizzate le formule di apertura e di chiusura, nonch� altre formule che, in uso da prima del quattordicesimo secolo, sono sopravvissute fino al ventesimo secolo nell?uso meno colto. Al termine un breve sguardo sar� rivolto ai manuali di corrispondenza che continuano tuttora ad essere pubblicati.

description: Wireless communication between sensors allows the formation of flexible sensor networks, which can be deployed rapidly over wide or inaccessible areas. However, the need to gather data from all sensors in the network imposes constraints on the distances between sensors. This survey describes the state of the art in techniques for determining the minimum density and optimal locations of relay nodes and ordinary sensors to ensure connectivity, subject to various degrees of uncertainty in the locations of the nodes.
Development and validation of a composite disease activity score for juvenile dermatomyositis
Creators: name: ROSINA, SILVIA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2019

description: Objective. To develop the first composite disease activity score for juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) and provide preliminary
evidence of its validity.
Methods. The Juvenile DermatoMyositis Activity Index (JDMAI) is composed of four items: physician?s global assessment of
overall disease activity; parent?s/child?s global assessment of child?s wellbeing; measurement of muscle strength; and assessment
of skin disease activity. The score of the JDMAI is the arithmetic sum of the scores of each individual component. Six preliminary
versions of the JDMAI were tested, which differed in the tools used to assess the third and fourth items. Validation procedures
were conducted using three large multinational patient samples including a total of 627 patients. Furthermore, a preliminary
longitudinal validation was conducted on 57 patients enrolled at disease onset or at a follow-up visit in standard clinical care.
Results. The JDMAI was found to possess face and content validity, good construct validity, satisfactory internal consistency
(Cronbach?s alpha = 0.58-0.89), fair responsiveness to clinically important change (standardized response mean = 0.82-3.12
among patients improved) and strong capacity to discriminate patients judged as being in the state of inactive disease or low,
moderate or high disease activity by the physician (P<0.001) or whose parents were satisfied or not satisfied with the course of
their child?s illness (P<0.001). Similar results were obtained in the sample of patients prospectively enrolled for the aim of the
study. Overall, the six versions of the JDMAI showed similar metrological performances in validation analyses.
Conclusion. The JDMAI was found to possess good measurement properties in a large population of patients with a wide range
of disease activity, and is, therefore, suitable for use in both clinical and research settings. The final version of the JDMAI will be
selected after its large-scale prospective validation.
