Mountain building in NW Sicily from the superimposition of subsequent thrusting and folding events during Neogene: structural setting and tectonic ev…

2017

We present a 1:25.000 scale geological map of the Kumeta-Pizzuta ridge in north-western Sicily (Italy), achieved by integrating stratigraphic, structural and geophysical data. In this area, the tectonic edifice results from the piling-up of deep-water-, carbonate platform- and pelagic platform-derived tectonic units (Imerese and Sicilide, Panormide and Trapanese domains, respectively) resulting from deformations of the former southern Tethyan continental margin. The structural setting shows interference of tectonic events, different types of structural styles and different scales of deformational patterns. Early overthrust of the Imerese on the Trapanese units (since the late Serravallian) …

Geology of Monte Gallo (Palermo Mts, NW Sicily)

2016

The promontory of Monte Gallo (Palermo, NW Sicily) is a spectacular site where Upper Triassic-Eocene carbonate platform rocks and Quaternary continental to marine deposits are well exposed. A Mesozoic-Paleogene rock succession allows the potential visitor to easily detect the features and the evolution of the Panormide carbonate platform, a shallow-water paleogeographic domain of the Southern Tethyan margin. Quaternary deposits, as well many landforms, enable the visitor to directly identify the interplay between climate changes, tectonics and fluctuations of marine level that occurred during the Quaternary Period. A detailed geological map (1:15,000 mapping scale) is presented, accompanied…

Sea–land geology of Marettimo (Egadi Islands, central Mediterranean sea)

2016

We present a 1:10,000 scale geological map of Marettimo Island and its offshore (Egadi Archipelago, central Mediterranean Sea). The map was achieved by integrating a new geological survey with data from recent, marine, geological and geophysical surveys acquired along the adjacent continental shelf. The island is composed of a Mesozoic, mostly carbonate platform succession, which is overlain by continental to coastal marine Quaternary deposits. Extensional tectonics have affected the carbonate platform since the Late Triassic producing an initial increase of accommodation space that was filled by interbed breccias, marls and calcareous marls. During the Jurassic, a NE-SW-directed normal fau…

Archaeological Map of Lilybaeum (Marsala) - First Results

2018

La Missione archeologica delle Università di Amburgo e Palermo opera a Marsala dal 2007, quando è stato avviato lo scavo nella ‘Zona Mura’ del Parco Archeologico del Capo Boeo, nell’ambito del “Progetto Archeologico Lilibeo”. A seguito dei risultati conseguiti con tale ricerca, la Missione, in accordo e in collaborazione con il Polo Regionale di Trapani e Marsala, e del Museo Archeologico Lilibeo, ha intrapreso, nel 2017, la realizzazione della Carta Archeologica dell’antica Lilibeo. Nel corso delle prime due campagne è stata rilevata la maggior parte delle emergenze archeologiche del Parco; il rilievo strumentale delle strutture è integrato con rilievi aerofotogrammetrici, realizzati con l…

The ‘Archaeological Map of Lilybaeum’

2021

The ‘Archaeological Map of Lilybaeum’ is the result of the long-standing scientific cooperation in Marsala between Palermo and Hamburg Universities. This paper investigates the various methods of field research used to gather the necessary data for the archaeological map of ancient Lilybaeum. There will be a particular focus on the topographic survey and photogrammetric aerial survey by Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) conducted in the years 2017–2019. The aim of the work is to highlight the impact of the results on already existing research hypotheses and the ways in which the resulting map enhances our knowledge of the ancient city of Lilybaeum.

A Communication-Aware Topological Mapping Technique for NoCs

2008

Networks---on---Chip (NoCs) have been proposed as a promising solution to the complex on-chip communication problems derived from the increasing number of processor cores. The design of NoCs involves several key issues, being the topological mapping (the mapping of the Intellectual Properties (IPs) to network nodes) one of them. Several proposals have been focused on topological mapping last years, but they require the experimental validation of each mapping considered. In this paper, we propose a communication-aware topological mapping technique for NoCs. This technique is based on the experimental correlation of the network model with the actual network performance, thus avoiding the need…

Realizing dynamic capabilities and organizational knowledge in effective innovations: the capabilities typological map

2022

Purpose This paper aims to shed light on the mechanisms that connect dynamic capabilities and organizational knowledge in the innovative process to offer a new theoretical and practical solution considering the microfoundations of knowledge management strategies. Design/methodology/approach This research has emerged from an in-depth case study of an effective innovation (from just ethanol and sugar-production to an effective biomass plant). The study represents an “inductive inquiry,” useful to understand specific “organizational mechanisms” of innovation, where the main data came from in-depth interviews with 18 key actors. It proved to help search the development of a specific biomass pl…

Geoconservation in Sicily (Italy): the Example of the Isola delle Femmine (Palermo)

2022

Abstract The Regional Administration of Sicily recently erected Isola delle Femmine—a small island of the Tyrrhenian Sea, close to Palermo—as a geosite. A detailed geological survey has been carried out in order to define the most important geological features of the island together with the development of a new geological map based on topographic data and a digital model at 1:2.000 scale specially processed. Finally, a geological pathway through the island has been traced and illustrated. The geological substrate of Isola delle Femmine consists of a Mesozoic carbonate succession belonging to the Panormide Carbonate Platform. Two lithostratigraphic units have been differentiated. The lowest…

Identification of Distributed Systems with Logical Interaction Structure

2012

This paper focuses on the structure identification problem for a class of networked systems, where the interaction among components or agents is described through logical maps. In particular, agents are heterogeneous cooperating systems, i.e. they may have different individual dynamics and different interaction rules depending on input events. While we assume that the individual agents' dynamics are known, each agent has partial knowledge of the logical map encoding the interaction of another agent with its neighbors. Based on the so-called algebraic normal form for binary functions, we present a technique by which the network structure described by a logical function can be dynamically est…
