Balancing of multi-stage pump using the coupling hub
2019
In this paper, we present an investigation to perform a temporary on-site balancing of machines which rotor is not accessible, such as multi-stage oil centrifugal pumps, in order to bring back the vibration magnitude below the alarm threshold, waiting for the scheduled general review of the machine. We have shown that if the vibration measured on the Driver End Support (DE) is very higher than that measured on the Non Driver End Support (NDE), we can consider the Coupling Hub fitted to the Pump (CHP) a correction plane in order to apply on site balancing by means of the Influence Coefficients Method. This permits to overcome the problem of the inaccessibility of the rotor and to solve, in t…
Joint routing and per-flow fairness in wireless multihop networks
2008
In wireless multihop networks communication between two end-nodes is carried out by hopping over multiple short wireless links. Traditional CSMA/CA based media access control does not work satisfactory in a multihop scenario, since an intended target of a communication may be subject to mutual interference imposed by concurrent transmissions from nodes which cannot directly sense each other, causing unfair throughput allocation. Although TDMA seems to be a more promising solution, careful transmission scheduling is needed in order to achieve error-free communication and fairness. In our previous work, a TDMA scheduling algorithm has been proposed that schedules the transmissions in a fair m…
A Pattern Recognition Approach for Peak Prediction of Electrical Consumption
2014
Predicting and mitigating demand peaks in electrical networks has become a prevalent research topic. Demand peaks pose a particular challenge to energy companies because these are difficult to foresee and require the net to support abnormally high consumption levels. In smart energy grids, time-differentiated pricing policies that increase the energy cost for the consumers during peak periods, and load balancing are examples of simple techniques for peak regulation. In this paper, we tackle the task of predicting power peaks prior to their actual occurrence in the context of a pilot Norwegian smart grid network.
A simulation study of load balancing algorithms in cellular packet networks
2001
This paper provides a comparative performance evaluation of various load balancing schemes in cellular packet networks. With respect to traditional schemes, that measure each cell load in terms of number of admitted calls, our schemes use supplementary packet level information, expressed in terms of effective resource consumption of each individual call when retransmission mechanisms are employed. The simulation model adopted is based on a toroidal cellular network topology, to avoid border effects affecting the numerical results.
On the Characterization of Distributed Virtual Environment Systems
2003
Distributed Virtual Environment systems have experienced a spectacular growth last years. One of the key issues in the design of scalable and cost-effective DVE systems is the partitioning problem. This problem consists of efficiently assigning clients (3-D avatars) to the servers in the system, and some techniques have been already proposed for solving it.
A novel traffic splitting policy for performance improvement in wireless mesh networks
2009
Wireless mesh networks are expected to play an important role in the next-generation wireless communication systems as it can provide wide coverage and scalable broadband Internet access services. However, as more traffic is injected into the network it may lead to throughput degradation, packet loss and longer transmission delay. In this paper, we argue that network performance can be improved by cross-layer design over multiple layers and load balancing based on service types. Correspondingly, a novel traffic splitting policy which can potentially utilize diverse paths for transmitting traffic flows of different service types from the same router has been proposed and investigated. Such a…
Il diritto non scritto nel sistema della Convenzione europea dei diritti umani
2016
Il lavoro si occupa dei rapporti tra diritto internazionale generale e sistema della Cedu, affrontando in particolare il problema di capire se la Corte edu abbia fatto ricorso al modello tradizionalmente usato nella giurisprudenza internazionale per stabilire condizioni e modalità di funzionamento delle norme generali nel sistema o se abbia elaborato una concezione un modello autonomo. This paper discusses the relationship between customary international law and the ECHR. The focus is the question whether this problem has been handled by the European Court of Human Rights through the model of relationship between customary law and treaty law which is commonly used by international judges an…
Spunti da un dialogo d’oltralpe sui diritti fondamentali alla prova del fuoco
2020
Short comment on the Jurgen Habermas and Klaus Günther debate "Kein Grundrecht gilt grenzenlos" ("No fundamenthal rights is valid without limit"). The dialogue, altough referring to the German situation and law system, take a more general relevance connected to the problem of balncing fundamental rights in the pandemic.

Tackling the Problem of Data Imbalancing for Melanoma Classification
2016
Comunicació de congrés presentada a: 3rd International Conference on Bioimaging, BIOIMAGING 2016 - Part of 9th International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies, BIOSTEC 2016, Roma, Italy Malignant melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer, yet melanoma is the most treatable kind of cancer when diagnosed at an early stage. In this regard, Computer-Aided Diagnosis systems based on machine learning have been developed to discern melanoma lesions from benign and dysplastic nevi in dermoscopic images. Similar to a large range of real world applications encountered in machine learning, melanoma classification faces the challenge of imbalanced data, where …
