E-Sports y brecha de género: la percepción de las profesionales españolas
2019
The present paper aims to identify the causes of under-representation of women in E-sports. According to a genre perspective, interest in videogames at the amateur level is quite similar. However, in its professional level, female participation becomes very limited. The fact that physical effort is irrelevant (a requirement for ?traditional sports?) could be considered a variable that would negatively affect greater to equality in the conditions of access and participation of women in electronic sports. Against any predictions, the data on the presence of women are elocuent: few women, with much lower wages than men to remunerate same skills, and a general complaint by the female profession…
Aspecte i prefixació verbal en català antic
2021
The paper examines aspectual and selectional properties of Old Catalan prefixed verbs in comparison with their non prefixed counterparts. We ground our analysis on Talmy’s (1985, 2000) notion of verb framed and satellite framed languages and on Mateu (2002, 2003) and Mateu & Rigau (2002) theory of lexical structure, and we argue that telicity and other aspectual properties associated with prefixed verbs are by effects derived from the semantic value of the prefix together with the lexical structure they give rise to. Taking as a case in point the a- prefix of verbs such as «acórrer», we analyse the prefix as a path which relates a figure (the grammatical subject) to a ground (the argument i…
The thermal performances of historic masonry: In-situ measurements of thermal conductance on calcarenite stone walls in Palermo
2018
Abstract Rich literature explores materials and construction techniques of historic buildings, but limited information is available about the thermal and hygrometric features of their envelope. Nevertheless, accurate hygrothermal data are essential for identifying effective energy upgrade measures, which must be compatible with the conservation of the architectural heritage. In order to fill this gap, it is necessary to refer to local contexts, where the variety of historic buildings is limited and their material and construction features are comparable. This paper focuses on historic masonry walls and discusses the results of twenty in-situ measurements of thermal conductance, performed al…
The (im)possible success of disadvantaged students. Reflections on education, migration and social change
2019
The paper focuses on the ?unexpected pathways? of successful students with an immigrant background: these biographical routes, that seems socially impossible, raise theoretical issues around the individual-society, actor-structure relationship. Disadvantaged students who succeed represent a sociological challenge in the attempt to understand atypical situations and to identify the institutional processes and the structural opportunities that facilitate them, reducing ethnic inequalities in education. This framework is the starting point of the Su.Per. project (Success in educational pathways of students with immigrant background), based on the collection of written autobiographies of 65 imm…
The new face of university–business cooperation in Finland
2016
This paper analyses the development of university-business cooperation (UBC) in Finland in the context of the University Reform Act of 2009, drawing on the experience of four universities: Aalto University, University of Jyvaskyla, University of Turku, and Lappeenranta University of Technology. Six UBC dimensions are examined: institutional context, stakeholders, motivations, facilitators/inhibitors, benefits, and drawbacks. We find that UBC, while a relatively recent process, is growing fast in dynamic local innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems. The University Act of 2009 had an uneven effect on the six UBC dimensions, with the most visible impact being manifested on motivations. Aal…
Reducing the Time to Detect Cyber Attacks : Combining Attack Simulation With Detection Logic
2021
Cyber attacks have become harder to detect, causing the average detection time of a successful data breach to be over six months and typically costing the target organization nearly four million dollars. The attacks are becoming more sophisticated and targeted, leaving unprepared environments easy prey for the attackers. Organizations with working antivirus systems and firewalls may be surprised when they discover their network has been encrypted by a ransomware operator. This raises a serious question, how did the attacks go undetected? The conducted research focuses on the most common pitfalls regarding late or even non-existent detection by defining the root cause behind the failed detec…
Nekustamā īpašuma tirgus tiesiskā regulējuma realitāte un tiesību efektivitāte (2006-2016.g)
2018
Ņemot vērā, ka 1995.gada un 2007.gada krīzes ievērojami nobremzēja nekustamā īpašuma tirgus veidošanas procesu Latvijā, šodien ir vērojams aktivitātes pieaugums visās nekustamā īpašuma tirgus jomās, kaut gan par pilnīgi sakārtotu nekustamā īpašuma tirgu runāt vēl pāragri. Tieši tāpēc darbam ir liela nozīmē tālākai nekustamā īpašuma tirgus attīstībai. Tajā tie aplūkota nekustamā īpašuma tirgus situācija sākot ar pirmskrīzes periodu un izanalizēti vissaktuālākie jautājumi, par kuriem pēdējo gadu laikā spriež visi nekustamo īpašumu tirgus speciālisti. Pirmā darba nodaļa ir vispārēja nodaļa, kurā informācija tiek sniegta, lai sagatavotu lasītāju turpmākajām tēmām un iepazīstināt ar galvenajiem …

Timber framed with masonry infill: a historical anti-seismic device. The Portuguese Pombaline gaiola.
2017
La ricostruzione postsismica e la prevenzione sismica sono stati da sempre un fondamento costruttivo.Questo studio analizza la tipologia costruttiva della gaiola pombalina, un sitema costruttivo e strutturale molto diffuso in Portogallo ma non solo, adottato a Lisbona a seguito del terremoto del 1755. Si analizzano i materiali e le tecniche costruttive, gli elementi utili al rinforzo e consolidamento della struttura muraria, ampiamente diffuso in area mediterranea a partire dal XVIII secolo.Questo sistema costruttivo può e deve anche oggi essere considerato un utile presidio antisismico da riconoscere e preservare da interventi incolti, se non addirittura da incongrue demolizioni. Post-seis…
