Il prospetto e il fianco della chiesa di Santa Maria la Croce a Regalbuto

2022

Today’s appearance of the church of Maria Santissima la Croce in Regalbuto is the result of interventions carried out during the last 300 years. The 19th century’s plaster decorations of the interiors hide the original structure of the 16th-century church. One of the “antiquities remainings” survived on the red carved stone arch upon the main apse. The study reveals that the model of the façade, completed in 1774, is the arch of Triumph for Porta dei Greci in Palermo, designed in 1735 by Nicolò Palma and known today thanks to an engraving by Antonino Bova. A document in the archive of the church of San Basilio demonstrates the process of the side façade design, which required reinforcement …

Territori sensibili. La Trasversale sicula e la rete dei Centri minori rurali in Sicilia

2021

La ricerca sui processi di spopolamento e di abbandono delle piccole città è essenziale per agire sulla situazione attuale e sulle sue prospettive proponendo nuovi scenari, sperimentando metodologie d'azione, fornendo formazione a professionisti, e lancio di opportunità di investimento. In questi luoghi, il paesaggio si intreccia con il mito, alimentando le connessioni tra storia antica e storia recente, da un lato, e sostenendo l'ipotesi di una trasformazione anche minima del paesaggio attraverso variazioni e interpretazioni di ciò che esiste, dall'altro. La riprogettazione del territorio della Trasversale Sicula coniuga situazioni materiali e immateriali e immaginari che trovano nella ret…

Towards Seamless IoT Device-Edge-Cloud Continuum:

2021

In this paper we revisit a taxonomy of client-side IoT software architectures that we presented a few years ago. We note that the emergence of inexpensive AI/ML hardware and new communication technologies are broadening the architectural options for IoT devices even further. These options can have a significant impact on the overall end-to-end architecture and topology of IoT systems, e.g., in determining how much computation can be performed on the edge of the network. We study the implications of the IoT device architecture choices in light of the new observations, as well as make some new predictions about future directions. Additionally, we make a case for isomorphic IoT systems in whic…

The Role of Architecture Evaluations in ICT-companies

2008

First published in the Proceedings of the 11th International HAAMAHA Conference, July 9-12, 2007, Poznan, Poland Architecture evaluation is a way to get answers to organisation’s information needs and problems relating to its business and ICT. Companies’ needs to move towards business value driven ICT-development and pressures to improve the costeffectiveness of ICT are some of the reasons for the increasing interest in the evaluations and measurements of architectures. However, the role and the meaning which architecture evaluation may have in companies is not clearly identified or defined. For example, needs and triggers for architectural evaluations do not seem to be identified in previo…

Quality Management Activities for Software Architecture and Software Architecture Process

2008

First published in the Proceedings of the IASTED International Conference on Software Engineering (SE 2007), February 13-15, 2007, Innsbruck, Austria Architecture processes are considerably new parts of organisations’ processes. These processes have the responsibility to aim at high quality and financially successful architectures. However, the activities which promote this aim are not clearly defined yet. This study reviews literature and practitioners’ experiences on quality management activities that could be suggested to promote the achievement of high quality software architectures and a good quality software architecture process. These activities are proposed to be taken into account …

ISTehnology – integrated Approach to IS Development and Benefits of its Using

2011

The system ISTechnology and benefits of its usage are analyzed in the paper. ISTechnology provides an integrated approach to business modeling and development of information systems. The system consists of a meta-model and applications. The meta-model enables defining of a platform independent business model of the organization. The applications provide the definition and interpretation of the business model. Interpretation of the business model provides functionality of the information system in the selected platform. The lessons learned confirm that the development and maintenance cost of information systems can be significantly reduced by use of the ISTechnology. The paper describes addi…
