La multiculturalidad en la enseñanza de la Historia y el desajuste entre intenciones educativas y prácticas escolares: los retos del presente y del f…
2011
En nuestra aportación desarrollamos una aproximación inicial a los conceptos de dimensión europea, dimensión intercultural y de multiculturalidad en relación con la enseñanza de la historia. Nos centramos, seguidamente, en las características que estas dimensiones presentan en la realidad y práctica escolares, mostrando sus principales insuficiencias y, ocasionalmente, deficiencias. Finalmente abordamos los resultados de diversas investigaciones sobre las representaciones y actitudes de los jóvenes escolares españoles, ampliables a los de otros países, respecto de los "extranjeros" y los retos que éstas presentan para una enseñanza orientada a la formación de unos ciudadanos más abiertos, p…
Multiculturalism in Canada and the USA : Different representations in two newspapers
2009
Monikulttuurisuudesta puhutaan paljon nykyajan globalisoituvassa maailmassa. Ihmiset eivät enää asu ja elä omassa maassaan koko ikäänsä ja lisäksi maahanmuutto eri maiden välillä on hyvin yleistä. Maailma on pienentynyt ja sen seurauksena eri kulttuureista tulevat ihmiset joutuvat tulemaan toimeen keskenään asuessaan uudessa maassa. Kanada ja Yhdysvallat ovat hyvin monikulttuurisia valtioita, mutta niiden lähestymistavat eri kulttuureista koostuvaan kansaan ovat hieman erilaiset. Yhdysvalloissa suositaan maahanmuuttajien sulautumista valtaväestöön, kun taas Kanada on yrittänyt pitää yllä monikulttuurista mosaiikkiyhteiskuntaa . Tutkimukseni tarkoituksena oli selvittää, kuinka näitä kahta l…

PROGETTARE LO SPAZIO INTERCULTURALE. Approccio multi-scalare nel quartiere Albergheria a Palermo / DESIGNING INTERCULTURAL SPACE. A multi-scalar appr…
2020
Migration has always been a major driver of urban transformation stimulating opportunities and challenges for cities and encouraging architectural and urban designers for taking a proactive and dynamic role in responding to the crisis. Enhancing these changes, and designing intercultural spaces for local communities, is a complex and urgent spatial challenge, that should be addressed by a multi-scalar approach aiming to integrate urban, architectural and public spaces. This paper illustrates a research-action resulting from a collective work developed on key urban spaces of the Albergheria neighborhood of Palermo, where a design-led research based on a multiscalar regeneration approach (urb…
La colaboración científica: principales líneas de investigación y retos de futuro
2014
The construction of knowledge is a collaborative process that has seen a dramatic growth over recent decades, since almost all research activities now involve increasing numbers of researchers, institutions, disciplines and countries. The present study provides a bibliographic review of the literature on research collaboration and identifies pioneering work on the topic, the types of studies undertaken and the variables analyzed. Several approaches are discussed: the “classical” approach, based on bibliometric indicators, which has taken on a new dimension with Social Network Analysis; and quantitative and qualitative approaches, which attempt to investigate the motivations and dynamics of …
Multilevel Governance for Climate Change Adaptation in Food Supply Chains
2019
The vulnerability of food supply chains to climate change is higher compared to other industries due to its dependency on climatic conditions, temperature and water supply. As a robust response to the vulnerability of food supply chains, it is essential to find ways of linking the concepts of sustainable development, climate change adaptation and risk governance into one paradigm. The risk governance of food supply chains is conducted by and across both private and public spheres. Hence, in this chapter, we introduce a dual system of governance to match the objectives of climate change adaptation, and discuss the multiplicity and potential integration of both corporate-led private governanc…

Desarrollo de una estrategía diagnóstica por resonancia magnética multimodal para tumores cerebrales.
2015
RESUMEN Esta Tesis estudia el uso combinado de las imágenes morfológicas obtenidas en los estudios de Resonancia Magnética para el diagnóstico de los tumores cerebrales con las nuevas técnicas que incluyen a la espectroscopía, perfusión y difusión cerebral por resonancia magnética. Estas técnicas tienen valor de biomarcadores, en cuanto son cuantificables, facilitan el diagnóstico precoz del tumor cerebral, su gradación, respuesta y seguimiento tras las medidas terapéuticas empleadas. A este uso combinado lo llamamos Resonancia Multimodal, cuyo fin es incrementar la precisión diagnóstica de los tumores del SNC y su monitorización tras tratamiento. Esta tesis sigue una estrategia diagnóstica…
Optimal Resource Allocation in Multi-Hop Networks: Contention vs. Scheduling
2014
CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance) is actually the most used method in ad-hoc networks for transmitting on a contending medium, even if it shows poor performance in presence of hidden nodes. To increase performance, we propose an algorithm that combines CSMA and TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) approaches. The adopted solution consists of grouping contending nodes in non-interfering subsets and granting a different numbers of time slots to different groups, while using the CSMA to manage medium access among nodes belonging to the same subset. An optimization procedure to assign the time slots to each subset of nodes and to find an equilibrium between contention …
The Circularity of MSW in Urban Landscapes: An Evaluation Method for a Sustainable System Implementation
2022
The debate on the sustainable perspective of a circular economy and MSW (Municipal Solid Waste) management is no longer focused on the resolution of an emergency and on the pure technicality of creating efficient services. New light has been shed on the operational phase, as often unresolvable technical-environmental issues during service management lead to a state of decay, affecting urban vulnerability and users’ involvement. The research aims to develop an auxiliary tool for public administrations in planning a zero-waste future whilst enhancing the urban landscape. This study considers the perspective of virtuous management of the resource flow cycle along with evaluating implementable …
