Blockchain e criptovalute: strumento di democratizzazione imprenditoriale o bolla speculativa?
2018
L’obiettivo di questo lavoro (che costituisce il primo step di un più articolato percorso di ricerca) è di fornire un quadro teorico di riferimento utile alla comprensione delle possibili conseguenze che l’avvento della blockchain e delle criptovalute può avere sul contesto imprenditoriale e strategico-competitivo. Nello specifico, si vuole indagare se l’utilizzo della tecnologia blockchain possa rappresentare un effettivo strumento di “democratizzazione imprenditoriale” e di enfatizzazione del personal power dei singoli attori oppure sia il driver di una bolla speculativa basata sulle criptovalute.
A Multiple Local Models Approach to Accuracy Improvement in Continuous Glucose Monitoring
2011
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices estimate plasma glucose (PG) from measurements in compartments alternative to blood. The accuracy of currently available CGM is yet unsatisfactory and may depend on the implemented calibration algorithms, which do not compensate adequately for the differences of glucose dynamics between the compartments. Here we propose and validate an innovative calibration algorithm for the improvement of CGM performance.CGM data from GlucoDay(®) (A. Menarini, Florence, Italy) and paired reference PG have been obtained from eight subjects without diabetes during eu-, hypo-, and hyperglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamps. A calibration algorithm based on a dynamic glo…
The Complex System Theory for the Analysis of Inter-Firm Networks: A Literature Overview and Theoretic Framework
2011
In this paper we discuss the body of knowledge known as complex system theory and its relevance to the analysis of inter-firm networks. We start by addressing the development of systems thinking. Through a literature overview, we point out the main elements for the development of systemic thought from its beginning, through its application in business sciences, to the birth of Complex Systems Theory (CST). With these initial annotations we provide an introduction to the concepts of the complex systems theory. We will underscore those aspects of CST that can be useful to analyze inter-firm networks, in order to highlight the evolutionary dynamics of the networks and to clarify the logical li…
Book Review: Viable Systems Approach (VSA): Governing Business Dynamics
2015
This book introduces for the first time in English (and thus for an international readership) the Viable Systems Approach (VSA). The VSA is a novel systemic approach developed in Italy over a period of about thirty years by Italian systemic scholars under the guidance of Gaetano Golinelli.A strictly holistic view of systemic thinking puts the focus on the whole, as opposed to the parts. Accepting this view means directing all research efforts towards the understanding of the whole, without resorting to an analysis of the parts (Barile & Saviano, 2011). This perspective emerges in juxtaposition to the traditional analytical–reductionist approach, aiming to overcome its limits by moving towar…

1023 – Therapeutic drug-monitoring of bupropion for depression
2013
Introduction Therapeutic Drug-Monitoring (TDM) for bupropion is limited by bupropion's instability at room temperature and by the absence of a well-defined therapeutic reference range. Further it is unclear to what extent bupropion and its metabolites contribute to therapeutic effects, though hydroxybupropion seems to account for the major antidepressant effects. Aim The aim of this examination was to check if measurement of only hydroxybupropion is useful to guide the antidepressant therapy with bupropion. Methods Hydroxybupropion plasma levels were measured by high performance liquid chromatography with ultra violet detection and related to therapeutic effects measured by the Clinical Glo…

Biznesa procesu reorganizācija komercbankās
2020
Bakalaura darba tēma ir “Biznesa procesu reorganizācija komercbankās”. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir analizēt, kā biznesa procesu reorganizācija tika ieviesta PSB bankā Krievijā, un novērtēt tās ietekmi uz banku un tās klientiem. Darba saturs ir sadalīts trīs daļās. Pirmajā daļā tiek sniegts teorētiskais atspoguļojums ar piedāvātajām biznesa procesu reorganizācijas definīcijām un teorijām (turpmāk - BPR). Darba otrajā daļā ir ietverta vispārīga informācija par PSB Banku Krievijā, un ieviestās BPR analīze. Darba pēdējā daļa ir empīrisks pētījums, kas sniedz kvantitatīvu analīzi par BRP ietekmi, kas ieviesta PSB bankā, Krievijā.
The Relevance of Systemic Approaches in Business Sciences
2015
Our times are characterized by intense changes in the viable logics of markets and, generally speaking, of business systems. Business scenarios today are typified by connectivity, dynamism, nonlinearity, and emergent behaviors - in other words by “complexity” (Dominici, 2012). Reductionist models are unable to completely depict, or to allow us to totally understand the new business scenarios. Today, more than ever, it is necessary to recognize the need for a paradigm shift that can carry science beyond the analytical reductionist approach, and towards a more comprehensive systemic perspective. Systems thinking can be critical to unlock new perspectives and enhance holistic views for a bette…
