Una revisión a la planificación de los recursos: sobre los enfoques de evaluación y los modelos de adaptación al uso turístico
2018
Mucho se ha hablado de la planificación del turismo. Solo cabe echar una mirada a la literatura académica para encontrar decenas de propuestas metodológicas que, desde inicios de los años 50 del siglo pasado, vienen exponiéndose. A pesar de esta vorágine creativa, todas ellas acaban, finalmente, enmarcándose en uno de los cinco enfoques identificados por Hall (2008). Sin embargo, al realizar ese mismo ejercicio para el caso de los recursos, considerados la base sobre la que asentar cualquier proceso de desarrollo turístico, los resultados sobre cómo planificarlos difieren considerablemente. Esta investigación, de carácter teórico, realiza una revisión bibliográfica de los trabajos académico…
Morally Successful Collaboration between Academia and Industry — A Case of a Project Course
2006
Academia-industry collaboration is common in the IT-field, and it includes training programs, research centre activities, and industry advisory boards (Watson and Huber 2000). For the industry, co-operation provides possibilities to acquire human resources and, for the academia, co-operation ensures that research and teaching activities are relevant. Regardless of its popularity little is known about moral issues relating to this phenomenon. This study intends to fill the gap in knowledge by determining the nature of moral conflicts perceived by clients, students, and instructors of a collaborative project course, and by formulating a framework to successfully getting grips with these confl…
A description model for regeneration through urban tourism in rural towns with underused historic real estate
2016
Il presente contributo propone un modello di descrizione (description model) che trova applicazione in una situazione reale di aiuto alla decisione posto dall'urbanista per lo sviluppo turistico delle città rurali nelle zone dell'entroterra siciliano. Il problema decisionale riguarda la città di Cianciana (AG), che negli ultimi anni si è resa protagonista di un particolare fenomeno di turismo internazionale. In particolare, proponiamo un quadro valutativo multicriteriale per la riqualificazione fisica ed economica del centro storico della città attraverso lo sviluppo del turismo. Il modello presentato, relativo a un problema decisionale di tipo descrittivo, è orientato a supportare i deciso…
Aerobic granular sludge treating anaerobically pretreated brewery wastewater at different loading rates.
2020
Abstract In this study, three different aerobic granular sludge (AGS) reactors fed with anaerobically pre-treated brewery wastewater were studied. The AGS reactors were operated under different conditions including organic loading rates (OLR) between 0.8 and 4.1 kg COD m−3 d−1, C:N:P ratios (100:10:1 and 100:6:1) and food to microorganism ratios (F/M) between 0.8 ± 0.6 and 1.2 ± 0.5 and 0.9 ± 0.3 kg-TCOD kg-VSS−1d−1. Stable granulation was achieved within two weeks and the size of the granules increased according to the OLR applied. The results indicated that low C:N:P and F/M ratios were favorable to achieve stable aerobic granules in the long term. The carbon removal rate was load-indepen…
Stability criteria, atomization and non-thermal processes in liquids
2008
Analyzing the first equation in the BBGKY chain of equations for an equilibrium liquid-gas system, we derived the analytical expression for the atom work function from liquid into gas. The coupling between the atom work function from liquid into vacuum and the stability criterion of liquid in limiting points of the first type was shown (using I.Z.. Fisher classification). As it turned out, Fisher's criterion corresponds to the condition of atomization. We have expressed the state equation in terms of the atom work function from liquid into vacuum and performed calculations of the limiting line of stability composed of limiting points of the first type for argon. Our model discovers an inter…
Acetaldehyde and salsolinol in ethanol’s two-step mechanism of action: An overview
2018
In the last years, numerous studies have supported the idea that, at least in part, motivational and neuropharmacological effects of ethanol are mediated by its first brain-derived metabolite, acetaldehyde, and its bioderivate salsolinol. This review aims at gathering and shaping as a whole the evidence on their role in the mechanism of action of ethanol. Acetaldehyde and salsolinol interact with the reward brain system and are involved as primum movens of motivational and addictive behaviour that can be especially relevant to ethanol use disorders. Understanding the neurobiology of acetaldehyde and salsolinol holds promising potential for the development of novel pharmacological approaches…
Breaking the barriers of animosity: innovation in business models as a positioning strategy
2021
Consumer animosity is often studied in the large economies of the world, in order to explain the negative feelings generated by an individual towards another country and its products, due to various political, economic and social conflicts. This study presents three specific developments in this field. First, to demonstrate how companies in the retail sector have been able to develop innovations in their business models through their shops and virtual channels, which generate a positive positioning in the mind of the consumer, capable of minimizing animosity towards them. In this way it is shown that a consumer can have strong feelings of patriotism, animosity and ethnocentrism, and yet a p…
Musikmoderne als Mittel der Standortbestimmung eines "geistigen deutschen Juden". Ein Blick auf Arnold Schönberg in einer Vorkriegsnovelle Arnold Zwe…
2020
The aim of this article is to present the concept of "Europamüdigkeit" described by the German-Jewish writer Arnold Zweig (1887-1968) in his early work. The analysed novella titled "Quartettsatz von Schönberg" from 1913 is focused on a young emigrant who is exhausted with the European culture and encounters the music of Viennese modernism, bringing a totally new perception of the old continent.
Literature, social media and questionnaire surveys identify relevant conservation areas for Carcharhinus species in the Mediterranean Sea
2023
Sharks support ecosystems’ health, but their populations are facing severe declines worldwide. Knowledge gaps on shark distribution and the negative human perception of them still represent a barrier to the implementation of effective conservation measures. Here we carried out a regional-scale analysis in the Mediterranean Sea using data on requiem shark catches and sightings available in the scientific literature and on social media platforms to: 1) depict the distribution of Carcharhinus species across the basin, 2) identify potentially relevant areas for their conservation, and 3) evaluate people’s attitude toward shark protection. In addition, we administered 112 questionnaires in one o…
IncentMe: Effective Mechanism Design to Stimulate Crowdsensing Participants with Uncertain Mobility
2018
Mobile crowdsensing harnesses the sensing power of modern smartphones to collect and analyze data beyond the scale of what was previously possible with traditional sensor networks. Given the participatory nature of mobile crowdsensing, it is imperative to incentivize mobile users to provide sensing services in a timely and reliable manner. Most importantly, given sensed information is often valid for a limited period of time, the capability of smartphone users to execute sensing tasks largely depends on their mobility pattern, which is often uncertain. For this reason, in this paper, we propose IncentMe, a framework that solves this core issue by leveraging game-theoretical reverse auction …
