The Importance of Participation in Regeneration of Peripheral Urban Spaces: the Experience of “Serpentone Reload”
2015
Suburbs are often very contradictory places. Despite great part of urban population live there, these parts of cities are mostly considered as degradation places. The topic of suburbs regeneration is relevant today. Nevertheless, often expensive interventions implemented by local authorities fail to regenerate their public spaces, increasing the degradation condition. This paper presents the experience of “Serpentone reload”, a workshop based on participatory reactivation of abandoned or underused spaces and buildings in "Cocuzzo/Serpentone" neighbourhood in Potenza (Basilicata, Italy). The workshop particularly focused on the reuse of the "Ship", an underground building with a park coverag…
Ambiguità e potenza dello sguardo, tra enigmi persistenti e geometrie del caos
2008
Oltre i confini: verso la regionalizzazione dell'urbano. W 1.2 Il paradigma bio-regionale per il progetto di ri-territorializzazione (re-embedding) d…
2019
Il capitolo rende conto di una rilettura ed interpretazione del paradigma bio-regionale come riferimento per pratiche interpretative, di governance e progetto di territorio finalizzate alla “ril-ocalizzazione” dell’insediamento umano nel suo milieu socio-culturale ed ambientale di prossimità. Il riferimento primario è all’ampio e polifonico movimento culturale bio-regionale sviluppatosi in particolare negli Stati Uniti tra la fine degli anni sessanta e l’inizio degli anni settanta del XX secolo.
A Chain of Words as an Introduction: Human Dignity, Language, Identity, Citizenship, Values, Human Capital and Urban Spaces
2022
To analyze the issue of cities-migrants interactions, as well as social-monetary values interactions, it is necessary to place it in a “higher” context, in order not to risk losing the necessary connection with universal ethical principles, and in a “broader” one, in which understanding complexity on a global scale interprets local conditions. The study of migration flows and urban dynamics, as well as housing markets, through theoretical paradigms and scientific tools from different disciplines provides an opportunity to learn and compare, dialogue and interface with new keys to understanding the problem, or with alternative interpretations and unprecedented perspectives in the path of mul…
A Harris-based Region Detector on a Computational Grid
2007
This paper introduces a new Harris-based feature detector algorithm, characterized by no parameters tuning to detect region of interest. Preliminary results show that the proposed methodology returns good results with respect to standard detectors which need a set of parameters. An uncommon parallel implementation of the proposed algorithm is presented to support the high computational workload which is required to avoid the approximation of the results. Our parallel approach differs from the conventional one because an internal scheduler, based on the expected running time, is used to balance the data distribution on a client-server model. The aim of this paper is also to underline the adv…
Agent-Oriented Software Patterns for Rapid and Affordable Robot Programming
2010
Robotic systems are often quite complex to develop: they are huge, heavily constrained from the nonfunctional point of view and they implement challenging algorithms. The lack of integrated methods with reuse approaches leads robotic developers to reinvent the wheel each time a new project starts. This paper proposes to reuse the experience done when building robotic applications, by catching it into design patterns. These represent a general mean for (i) reusing proved solutions increasing the final quality, (ii) communicating the knowledge about a domain and (iii) reducing the development time and effort. Despite of this generality, the proposed repository of patterns is specific for mult…
An Evolution of the Non-Parameter Harris Affine Corner Detector: A Distributed Approach
2009
A parallel version of a new automatic Harris-based corner detector is presented. A scheduler to dynamically and homogeneously distribute high computational workload on heterogeneous parallel architectures such as Grid systems has been implemented to speedup the whole procedure. Experimental results show the robustness of the underlying scheduler, which can be easily exploited in various automatic image analysis systems.
Il delitto di "caporalato" tra diritti minimi della persona e tutela del mercato del lavoro
2020
Il contributo analizza il reato di intermediazione illecita e sfruttamento lavorativo, offrendo un’analisi comparata con il sistema repressivo tedesco. Lo studio si sofferma, in particolare, sui limiti di legittimazione del diritto penale nella punizione dei fatti di “caporalato”, nel tentativo di scongiurare che l’intervento repressivo nelle dinamiche economiche e contrattuali, di natura sinallagmatica, possa assumere una portata tale da porsi in contrasto con il canone della sussidiarietà. A tal fine, si suggerisce una prospettiva ermeneutica che incentri il disvalore penale del reato di cui all’art. 603-bis c.p. sulla lesione dei diritti fondamentali del lavoratore – riconducibili agli a…
L’exemplum del Dinomenide Gelone tra memoria civica e storiografica
2015
La storia della Sicilia greca è scandita, nei suoi momenti chiave, dalla persistente presenza dell’immagine del Dinomenide Gelone. Questo lavoro analizza le valenze paradigmatiche assunte dalla sua figura nella memoria civica siracusana e nella produzione storiografica; inoltre ricostruisce le dinamiche politiche che hanno spinto i principali tiranni siracusani (da Dionisio I a Ierone II) a stabilire un confronto con Gelone. Il suo exemplum è utilizzato per legittimare azioni politiche e impegno antipunico; particolare attenzione è posta alla Biblioteca storica di Diodoro Siculo e al ruolo che in essa assume la figura del Dinomenide; in relazione a questi aspetti l’opera dell’Agirinense sem…
Migrant Images and Imageries in Contemporary Italian Cinema”,
2019
This article aims to outline the three main threads that have marked Italian cinema in the adoption, comparison and modelling of migratory images and imageries, namely: a formed and forming gaze that transforms the multitude of life forms on the move into a horde of indistinct bodies; a humanitarian moral and a look that risk placing the diasporic subjects in an irredeemable position of subalternity and the construction and valorisation of migrant identities. Through these three threads, it is possible to reconstruct the visual history of migratory phenomena – both outwards to the Americas and inwards from North Africa –and highlight two opposing outcomes: on the one hand, the strategies of…
