Urban Services to Ecosystems: An Introduction
2021
Green infrastructure is a structural system of naturally developed human societies, capable of preserving and ensuring as much space as possible to the local biodiversity. For this reason, green infrastructure shall be planned and designed so that the urban built environment is in harmony with the surrounding biotic communities. The challenge is to sustain nature-based solutions in order to improve citizens’ awareness towards natural and semi-natural ecosystems while providing our society with a more liveable, healthier, safer and fairer environment. This book puts an emphasis on the services the city can offer to nature, thanks to a multidisciplinary approach involving scientists and pract…
L'évaluation socio-économique des infrastructures de transport : enrichir les approches du développement territorial
2007
International audience; Dans les années récentes, en France, le processus décisionnel en matière de grands équipements a sensiblement évolué, débouchant sur des réponses institutionnelles en termes de procédures adaptées. Ceci a eu pour conséquence d'accroître l'exigence informationnelle destinée à alimenter les débats, éclairer les problématiques abordées, leur donner un contenu le plus objectivé possible. L'une des principales thématiques systématiquement abordées dans le cadre de ces procédures participatives, est celle du développement territorial, dont l'importance en fait un des éléments essentiels de l'acceptabilité sociale. Les enseignements des observatoires socio-économiques autor…
Effects of retrofit in public building schools provided by urban green infrastructure: a case study in southern Italy
2022
Post-pandemic financial efforts have been set by the EU Commission and European governments regarding the renovation of European building heritage. Building schools will be object of interest to be transformed in more resilient buildings through improvement building energy performance which guarantee environmental sustainability; the renovation of building school heritage in Italy aims to ease new students' learning process through adaptation and implementation of new didactic methodologies. In this study is described a multi-scale methodology adopted to evaluate both at urban scale and building scale different scenarios that adopt green infrastructure as vegetation and building integrated …

Terveydenhuolto ja kyberuhkat
2019
Kyberturvallisuusstrategian vision mukaan Suomen tulee kyetä suojaamaan elintärkeät toimintonsa kyberuhkaa vastaan kaikissa tilanteissa. Terveydenhuolto on yksi elintärkeistä toiminnoista. Terveystoimiala on kyberhyökkäysten top-5-listalla ensimmäisenä. Hyökkäysten keskeisin motivaatio on potilastietojen arvo pimeillä markkinoilla. Vuonna 2015 varastettiin yli satamiljoonaa potilastietoa, jotka sisältävät rikollisille arvokkaita tietoja, kuten luottokorttinumeroita, työnantajatietoja ja sairaushistoriatietoja. Tässä artikkelissa kuvataan terveydenhuoltoon liittyviä kyberuhkia, kyberhaavoittuvuuksia ja toteutuneita kyberhyökkäyksiä kybermaailman eri ulottuvuudet kattaen. Tarkastelussa käytet…
Application of Heavy Equipment Telematics in Infrastructure Projects : Method for automating collection of mixed fleet data, and optimization of proj…
2019
Master's Thesis Civil and Constructional Engineering BYG508 - University of Agder 2019 Existing heavy equipment telematics capabilities are not being used to their potential.In collaboration with Skanska there is an interest to look at how telematics can beused more efficiently with mixed equipment fleets. Current and future aspects are com-pelling, especially in relations to optimization and environmental benefits.Rv. 3 /rv. 25Løten–Elverumis provided as a case.This master’s thesis takes a closer look at the use of telematics data from heavy equip-ment at infrastructure projects. Through the automation of collecting telematics data,mixed fleet data are juxtapositioned to give insight into …
The network of heliports as a necessary tool to develop rotorcraft services
2012
The rotorcraft operations will grow as air taxi services and business trips and even as “commuter”, intercity and line services between urban centres and touristic or economic-industrial places of special value. But actually the rising public opposition to helicopter activities reduces the number of available heliports for private and corporate operators, as environmental limits of all type of allowed operations and of suitable sites to construct new infrastructures. So the growth of scheduled rotorcraft services (passengers and freights) has to be supported not only by advances in machine’s technologies, but also by an adequate and strategically distributed infrastructure network. This vis…
Development of a Native Cross-Platform iRODS GUI Client
2015
This paper describes activities on the research IT infrastructure development project at the University of Jyväskylä. The main contribution is a cross-platform iRODS client application with a rich graphical user interface. The client application is fully native and builds from a single C++ codebase on all of the platforms on which iRODS 4.0 is supported. The application has a responsive UI with native look & feel and enables drag & drop integration to the desktop. This is made possible by basing the development of the client application on top of the Qt 5 framework and an object-oriented C++ framework for iRODS which is being developed with the client application. The objectoriented framewo…

Advantages of Public Cloud Infrastructure in Different Technology Adoption Lifecycle Stages
2012
Independent software vendors (ISV) utilize cloud infrastructure for different reasons. We hypothesize that the motivation to adopt cloud infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) changes as the ISV’s product is getting adopted by the market. In this paper we consider how the infrastructure needs of ISVs change along the stages of ISV product’s adoption lifecycle, and analyze the potential benefits of utilizing IaaS in different stages. The analysis is illustrated with the cases of ISV firms with documented use of IaaS. These cases support the hypothesis that different benefits of IaaS are gaining importance along the adoption lifecycle. peerReviewed
