"Antiphonarium ecclesiae Parochialis Oppoliensis" Carla Juliusa Adolpha Hoffmanna (1801–1843)

2022

This article describes Antiphonarium ecclesiae Parochialis Oppoliensis – Carl Julius Adolph Hoffmann’s antiphonary prepared for the needs of parish musical and liturgical life. The collection is presented against the background of all the activities of this famous Opole music director. From the very beginning of his work in Opole he was committed to raising the local music culture – first in the parish, in the field of religious music, and then also in the whole city, enlivening its concert life. As a result he also improved the level of education and musical awareness of the city’s inhabitants.

Quid iuris? La legittimazione a opporsi alla richiesta di archiviazione nei reati contro la fede pubblica: questioni interpretative e scelte delle Se…

2008

Rispetto ai reati contro la fede pubblica, è sorto un problema ermeneutico sulla titolarità della legittimazione a opporsi alla richiesta di archiviazione. Nel ritenere tali reati "plurioffensivi", la giurisprudenza ha riconosciuto la suddetta legittimazione al privato sulla cui sfera giuridica la falsità concretamente incide: il che assottiglia la differenza tra le figure della persona offesa dal reato e del danneggiato dal reato. Diverse riflessioni riguardano le conseguenze derivanti, nella prassi, da questo orientamento interpretativo, accolto dalle Sezioni unite della Corte di cassazione.

Optimal sample allocation conditioned on a small area model, estimator, and auxiliary data

2018

We have studied optimal sample allocation, associated with small area estimation, when the objective is to obtain as accurate estimates as possible, for the population and for the subpopulations, called as areas here. It is a question of a two-level optimization problem. The basic premise is composed of planned areas, stratified sampling, and small overall sample size predetermined by restricted time and budget resources. Low sample sizes are common in market surveys. During this thesis, we have developed new allocation methods, based on a small area model, estimator, and auxiliary data. The final method, the three-term Pareto allocation, is based on the three terms of the mean-squared erro…

Accuracy of Transient Elastography in Assessing Fibrosis at Diagnosis in Naïve Patients With Primary Biliary Cholangitis: A Dual Cut-Off Approach

2021

Background & aims Liver fibrosis holds a relevant prognostic meaning in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). Non-invasive fibrosis evaluation using vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) is routinely performed. However, there is limited evidence on its accuracy at diagnosis in PBC. We aimed to estimate the diagnostic accuracy of VCTE in assessing advanced fibrosis at disease presentation in PBC. Approach & results We collected data from 167 consecutive treatment-naive PBC patients who underwent liver biopsy(LB) at diagnosis at six Italian centers. VCTE examinations were completed within 12 weeks of LB. Biopsies were scored by two blinded expert pathologists, according to Ludwig sy…

Dynamic MAC Parameters Configuration for Performance Optimization in 802.11e Networks

2006

Quality of service support in wireless LAN is a theme of current interest. Several solutions have been proposed in literature in order to protect time-sensitive traffic from best-effort traffic. According to the EDCA proposal, which is a completely distributed solution, the service differentiation is provided by giving probabilistically higher number of channel accesses to stations involved in real-time applications. To this purpose, the MAC parameter settings of each contending stations can be tuned dynamically. In this paper, we face the problem of tuning the EDCA MAC parameters in common scenarios in which a given number of low-rate delay-sensitive traffic flows share the channel with so…

Remarks on IEEE 802.11 DCF Performance Evaluation, IEEE Communication Letters, Vol. 9, Issue 8, Aug 2005 pp:765 - 767

2005

This letter presents a new approach to evaluate the throughput/delay performance of the 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF). Our approach relies on elementary conditional probability arguments rather than bidimensional Markov chains (as proposed in previous models), and can be easily extended to account for backoff operation more general than DCF's one

On the accuracy of some common modeling assumptions for EDCA analysis

2005

Several models have been discussed in literature in order to evaluate the performance of the EDCA differentiation mechanisms. Despite of the exponential back off rules, usually the EDCA protocol has been modeled as a persistent slotted access protocol, and summarized into a set of access probabilities. These models often show a very different complexity and accuracy, according to the basis assumptions. In this paper, we propose a new modeling approach for EDCA, in which the medium access is described in terms of backoff counter comparisons, contention by contention, and no restrictive hypothesis is considered. Through our model, we verify the applicability of the most common protocol simpli…

Characteristic matrix in the bending plate analysis by SBEM

2008

This paper deals with the thin bending plate analysis by using the symmetric approach of Boundary Element Method (SBEM). A formulation is used in which the plate boundary is discretized into boundary elements and is subjected to appropriate distributions of shear forces and couples, as well as of vertical displacement and rotations. These distributions are the causes and are modelled through appropriate shape functions, whereas the generalized effects are obtained, according to the Galerkin approach, as weighting of the displacements and the rotations, as well as of the shear forces and moments. In the equations system the algebraic operator is a symmetric matrix whose coefficients are defi…
