The XMM-Newton survey of the ELAIS-S1 field
2006
We have surveyed with XMM-Newton the central ~0.6 deg2 region of the ELAIS-S1 field down to flux limits of ~5.5X10-16 cgs (0.5-2 keV, S band), ~2X10-15 cgs (2-10 keV, H band), and ~4X10-15 cgs (5-10 keV, HH band). We detect a total of 478 sources, 395 and 205 of which detected in the S and H bands respectively. We identified 7 clearly extended sources and estimated their redshift through X-ray spectral fits with thermal models. In four cases the redshift is consistent with z=0.4. We have computed the angular correlation function of the sources in the S and H bands, finding best fit correlation angles theta_0=5.2+/-3.8 arcsec and theta_0=12.8+/-7.8 arcsec respectively. A rough estimate of th…
"Design and application of a data-independent precursor and product ion repository."
2012
The functional design and application of a data-independent LC-MS precursor and product ion repository for protein identification, quantification, and validation is conceptually described. The ion repository was constructed from the sequence search results of a broad range of discovery experiments investigating various tissue types of two closely related mammalian species. The relative high degree of similarity in protein complement, ion detection, and peptide and protein identification allows for the analysis of normalized precursor and product ion intensity values, as well as standardized retention times, creating a multidimensional/orthogonal queryable, qualitative, and quantitative spac…

Self-organizing maps: A new digital architecture
1991
An original hardware architecture implementing the self-organizing feature maps, which is one of the most powerful and efficent neural network algorithm, is presented. The architecture, contrary to the most investigated hardware implementations of neural networks, is a full digital one and it may be easily built by using the standard VLSI techniques.

Understanding adults’ strong problem-solving skills based on PIAAC
2017
Purpose Research has shown that the problem-solving skills of adults with a vocational education and training (VET) background in technology-rich environments (TREs) are often inadequate. However, some adults with a VET background do have sound problem-solving skills. The present study aims to provide insight into the socio-demographic, work-related and everyday life factors that are associated with a strong problem-solving performance. Design/methodology/approach The study builds on large-scale data of the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) and gives insight into VET adults (N = 12,929) with strong problem-solving skills in 11 European countries. Find…
L'intonaco Li Vigni nell'architettura del XX secolo a Palermo. Nuove conoscenze e applicazioni diagnostiche per la manutenzione
2013
Il saggio presenta lo studio degli intonaci formulati per imitare le pietre e i marmi naturali che si diffondono in Sicilia all’inizio del XX secolo ed evidenzia che le prime applicazioni e la diffusione delle nuove malte, anche nel resto dell’Italia, risentono delle sperimentazioni condotte in tutta l’Europa. Il contributo riassume i risultati di una rigorosa e capillare ricognizione tra i brevetti conservati presso l’Archivio Centrale dello Stato a Roma inerenti alle malte per il confezionamento dell’intonaco a “finta pietra”, ne analizza i contenuti in modo critico e pone in risalto i contatti culturali con le sperimentazioni dei materiali in atto nell’ambito dei grandi cantieri di resta…
Najnowsze technologie i zarządzanie granicami zewnętrznymi Unii Europejskiej
2020
Artykuł koncentruje się na normatywnym, instytucjonalnym i operacyjnym projekcie Unii Europejskiej jako obszarze, w którym znaczna część bezpieczeństwa wewnętrznego jest zapewniana właśnie przez najnowsze technologie i wielkoskalowe systemy informacyjne. Następnie przechodzi się do analizy wyzwań prawnych wynikających z tworzenia systemu tzw. inteligentnych granic (ang. smart borders), tj. granic opartych na zautomatyzowanej kontroli granicznej oraz interoperacyjności wszystkich wielkoskalowych systemów informatycznych. W artykule stawia się dwa zasadnicze pytania badawcze. Po pierwsze, jak te nowe zjawiska wpływają na skuteczne zarządzanie granicami zewnętrznymi w UE? Po drugie, czy istnie…
Implementation of compact VLSI FitzHugh-Nagumo neurons
2008
In this paper we show a low power and very compact VLSI implementation of a FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron for large network implementations. The circuit consists of only 17 small transistors and two capacitors and consumes less than 23 muW. It is composed of a nonlinear resistor and a lossy active inductor. We demonstrate that a simple low Q active inductor can be used instead of a complex one because the parasitic series resistor can be easily embedded to the FitzHugh-Nagumo model. We also perform a statistical analysis to check the robustness of the circuit against mismatch.
The PAPIA system
1991
In 1983 an Italian research program was begun for the design, simulation and construction of a multiprocessor image processing system. After a first phase devoted to the comparison of suggested and existing systems and to the definition of a set of benchmarks, a new system was defined. The structure of this new system is introduced here: it is based on a fine-grained pyramid of processors built up by means of a pyramidal cell implemented on a VLSI multiprocessor chip. The peculiarities and the capabilities of the processing element are highlighted. The complete hardware and software system has been fully designed and is described. A first working prototype has been built and is now operatio…
