Capacity Estimation of ADSL links
2008
Most tools designed to estimate the capacity of an Internet path require access on both end hosts of the path, which makes them difficult to deploy and use. In this paper we present a single-sided technique for measuring the capacity without the active cooperation of the destination host, focusing particularly on ADSL links. Compared to current methods used on broadband hosts, our approach generates two orders of magnitude less traffic and is much less intrusive. Our tool, DSLprobe, exploits the typical characteristics of ADSL, namely its bandwidth asymmetry and the relatively low absolute bandwidth, in order to measure both downlink and uplink capacities and to mitigate the impact of cross…
Fast Available Bandwidth sampling for ADSL links: rethinking the estimation for larger-scale measurements
2009
Most existing tools for measuring the end-to-end available bandwidth require access to both end-hosts of the measured path, which severely restricts their usability. Few tools have been developed to overcome this limitation, but all of them focus on achieving high precision and are not suitable for large campaigns. In this paper we develop FAB-Probe , a tool aimed at characterizing the available bandwidth of a large number of paths, adapting it particularly for ADSL settings. FAB-Probe is an evolution of ABwProbe , a tool that estimates the available bandwidth in non-cooperative ADSL environments. Analyzing carefully the needs of such a characterization tool, we optimize and rethink ABwProb…
POSSIBILITIES OF USING DIALECT ATLASES IN THE ACQUISITION OF LATVIAN LANGUAGE
2020
The creation of a modern lesson increasingly uses open data, a variety of digital resources, electronic teaching tools etc. In addition to books, electronic teaching tools, information resources, etc., come into the training process as a way to portray linguistic information and the writers' creative thought. One of the resources that can be successfully exploited in promoting the growth of a fully developed and skilled pupil, as well as in-depth learning of the Latvian language, is dialect atlases. The aim of the research was to understand the functionality and effectiveness of the dialect atlases in lear ning lexicology and dialectology. The study combined the descriptive method and conte…
Low cost three-dimensional virtual model construction for remanufacturing industry
2018
Remanufactured products can save up to 80% of production and energy costs whilst generating lower CO2 emissions. The key success factors for remanufacturing are quality, lead-time and cost. Extensive work within the industry and the detailed analysis of the remanufacturing process has shown that component inspection has significant bearing on overall productivity. Remanufacturing lacks automation because activities are predominantly manual. Automation of remanufacturing process will not only decrease the number of non-remanufacturable components, through decreasing cost and increasing consistency in quality, but also attract industries to design for remanufacture. A digital model of the com…

Las bibliotecas y Ovidio: una herramienta para difundir un patrimonio digital contextualizado
2022
El objeto de esta comunicación es presentar el blog "Las bibliotecas y Ovidio: un blog sobre bibliotecas, sobre libros y sobre Ovidio" que constituye una ocasión de contextualizar los ejemplares que se van colocando poco a poco en las estanterías virtuales de la BIBLIOTECA DIGITAL OVIDIANA (BDO), abordándolos de una manera diferente, ya no como los individuos "atomizados" que se estudian a través de la ficha diseccionados, sino como parte integrante de una biblioteca por la que se realiza una suerte de visita virtual aprovechando la presencia de los ovidios ilustrados. Una invitación para conocer de manera conjunta los ejemplares estudiados y sus "hogares", las casi cien bibliotecas visitad…
The efficiency of LiDAR HMLS scanning in monitoring forest structure parameters: implications for sustainable forest management
2022
PurposeThis article aims to compare the LiDAR handheld mobile laser scanner (HMLS) scans with traditional survey methods, as the tree gauge and the hypsometer, to study the efficiency of the new technology in relation to the accuracy of structural forest attributes estimation useful to support a sustainable forest management.Design/methodology/approachA case study was carried out in a high forest located in Tuscany (Italy), by considering 5 forest types, in 20 different survey plots. A comparative analysis between two survey methods will be shown in order to verify the potential limits and the viability of the LiDAR HMLS in the forest field.FindingsThis research demonstrates that LiDAR HMLS…
Blockchain e pubblica amministrazione: stato dell'arte e prospettive
2021
La tecnologia blockchain sta catturando sempre più l’attenzione degli operatori del settore tecnologico e delle istituzioni italiane ed europee. Le molteplici applicazioni di questa tecnologia, in una prima fase accostate esclusivamente al settore finanziario, sembrano oggi avere una portata sterminata: servizi pubblici, tutela della privacy, identità digitale, tracciamento delle filiere produttive sono soltanto alcuni degli ambiti compatibili con quella che sembra poter essere una nuova rivoluzione industriale. Solo di recente, però, esse sono state oggetto di studio nell’ambito del diritto pubblico, aprendo nuovi orizzonti che non possono essere più esclusi dal dibattito della scienza del…
La blogosfera política española en las Elecciones Generales 2011. Una comparación entre blogs de candidatos, periodistas y ciudadanos
2015
En: Doxa Comunicación : revista interdisciplinar de estudios de comunicación y ciencias sociales. ISSN 1696-019X n. XXI, 2015, pp 78-112 El presente estudio propone un análisis de la blogosfera política española durante la campaña electoral previa a las Elecciones Generales del 20 de noviembre de 2011, con el fin de identificar los principales temas de discusión que centraron el debate en tres tipos de bitácoras: seis blogs de candidatos políticos de las principales formaciones políticas españolas, cuatro a cargo de periodistas destacados de la esfera pública central y cuatro de ciudadanos anónimos. Se plantea un análisis de contenido fundamentado en 57 categorías temáticas para establecer …
