Uncover : Aiap women in design Award : AWDA 3-4
2022
UNCOVER è un progetto polifonico che descrive le proposte di studentesse, professioniste e ricercatrici selezionate nella terza e quarta edizione del premio Aiap Women in Design Award e insieme raccoglie riflessioni teoriche, che affrontano attraverso la lente del design i temi dei diritti e del lavoro femminile, e più in generale delle disparità in ogni ambito. Ai saggi e ai progetti visuali si affiancano le interviste con persone impegnate nei più svariati campi – economia, comunicazione, giornalismo, politica, formazione, arte, volontariato, istituzioni. Un volume non convenzionale, che prova a “scoprire” non solo progetti di comunicazione visiva da ogni parte del mondo, ma anche sto…
Il "linguaggio" della Corte costituzionale: note sparse su alcuni aspetti dell'esperienza recente
2023
Wittgenstein's theories offer the starting point for looking at the socio-political implications of the language spoken by the institutions in the various historical phases: the communication system with which they relate to the outside world is functional in conveying the sense and scope of their action, building a precise relationship with public opinion. Starting from this assumption, the contribution takes into consideration some aspects of the recent practice of the Constitutional Court, with particular regard to press releases, and proposes an interpretation of the communication breakthrough pursued in recent years, relating it to the exercise of the function of warranty.
Mobile communication and work practices in knowledge-based organizations
2005
This paper examines the role of mobile communication, mobile tools and work practices in the context of organizations, especially knowledge-based organizations. Today, organizations are highly complex and diverse. Not surprisingly, various solutions to incorporating mobile tools and mobile communication in organizations have been devised. Challenges to technological development and research on mobile communication are presented.
Knowledge organization for modelling workflows in Taverna environment
2014
Today Workflow Management Systems (WFMS), like Taverna and Kepler, have a very important place in the everyday work of the scientist. These tools support the access to computational resources and act as interface for building complex data processing chains. The next step is to support decisions of the researcher on autonomously developing workflow parts guided by requirements of the scientist while she/he is working on the high-level goal of the experiment. To this aim, it is necessary an ontology to store the knowledge related to the experiments and tools used, and to make this knowledge available not only to the scientist, but also to a suitable artificial intelligent system. In this pape…
Compression and load balancing for efficient sparse matrix-vector product on multicore processors and graphics processing units
2021
We contribute to the optimization of the sparse matrix-vector product by introducing a variant of the coordinate sparse matrix format that balances the workload distribution and compresses both the indexing arrays and the numerical information. Our approach is multi-platform, in the sense that the realizations for (general-purpose) multicore processors as well as graphics accelerators (GPUs) are built upon common principles, but differ in the implementation details, which are adapted to avoid thread divergence in the GPU case or maximize compression element-wise (i.e., for each matrix entry) for multicore architectures. Our evaluation on the two last generations of NVIDIA GPUs as well as In…
Future Directions in Workplace Communication
2019
Various utopias and dystopias regarding the significance of human communication in the future workplace have been presented. Artificial intelligence (AI) will undoubtedly be one of the most remarkable influences on future work, and employees must prepare themselves to have social robots as coworkers. Partly as a result of the increased use of AI, various forms of self-employment will gain ground. Lifelong occupations and professions will be less common, and the value of one’s ever-evolving skills and knowledge, applicable to diverse work contexts, will consequently receive more emphasis. Knowledge work will increasingly take place in digital communication environments, and telework and othe…
Constructing responsibility in social interaction: an analysis of responsibility talk in hospital administrative groups
2018
The role of responsibility in hospitals is undeniable. Although administrative groups are essential to organizational performance, previous group and team studies of responsibility in hospital organizations have concentrated mainly on healthcare teams. This study aims to describe and understand responsibility construction in the social interaction in hospital administrative group meetings, based on observation and analysis of seven administrative group meetings in a Finnish hospital. Categories generated by thematic content analysis were compared with responsibility types. The findings show that responsibility is constructed by creating co-responsibility, taking individual responsibility, a…
Vuorovaikutus sairaalajohtoryhmien kokouksissa
2018
Kokoukset lienevät yleisin työelämän vuorovaikutuskäytänne ja siten organisoinnin keskeinen areena. Kokouksista on kirjoitettu lähinnä opaskirjallisuutta ja kokouksiin keskittyvä tutkimus on lisääntynyt vasta viime vuosina. Kokousteoreettinen jäsennys on kuitenkin edelleen vähäistä. Organisaation konstituointi tapahtuu vuorovaikutusprosesseissa. Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan sairaalajohtoryhmien kokousvuorovaikutusta. Johtoryhmäkokoukset ovat merkittävä osa sairaaloiden tiedonjakamis- ja johtamisjärjestelmiä, mutta sairaalaorganisaatioissa kokouksia on tutkittu vain vähän. Tämän väitöstutkimuksen tavoitteena on kuvata vuorovaikutusta ja jäsentää sen rakenteita sairaalajohtoryhmäkokouksi…
Newcomers in the Workplace
2019
When newcomers enter a workplace, the focus is usually only on orientation and onboarding tactics, which aim to socialize newcomers into the workplace. However, it is through workplace relationships that newcomers make sense of their work tasks and create an understanding of “our workplace.” This chapter describes the processes of interpersonal communication in the workplace during a newcomer’s entry phase. Newcomers may face uncertainty regarding professional performance, relationships, job tasks, or membership. This uncertainty is managed by information-seeking strategies. In social interaction with others, newcomers construct their belonging through membership negotiation and identificat…
