Integrating usability work into a large inter-organisational agile development project: Tactics developed by usability designers
2015
We examined how usability activities were integrated in a large inter-organisational agile development project.The collaboration between the usability designers and agile team members was affected by the size and nature of the project.Results showed integration was achieved through 5 tactics employed by the usability designers.Three propositions for organising usability activities in agile projects were derived. In this paper we examine the integration of usability activities into a large inter-organisational agile development project. Inter-organisational agile projects possess unique attributes. They involve multiple stakeholders from different organisational contexts and are thus charact…
Cost benefits of flexible hybrid cloud storage : Mitigating volume variation with shorter acquisition cycle
2016
The hybrid cloud storage is investigated as a case of concurrent sourcing.The paper introduces an analytical model for hybrid cloud storage costs.We study the role of acquisition cycle and volume variation in hybrid cloud costs.Shortening the reassessment interval reduces the volume non-stationarity.Shortening the reassessment interval reduces the total hybrid costs. Hybrid cloud storage combines cost-effective but inflexible private storage along with flexible but premium-priced public cloud storage. As a form of concurrent sourcing, it offers flexibility and cost benefits to organizations by allowing them to operate at a cost-optimal scale and scope under demand volume uncertainty. Howeve…
A proposal to elicit usability requirements within a model-driven development environment
2014
[EN] Nowadays there are sound Model-Driven Development (MDD) methods that deal with functional requirements, but in general, usability is not considered from the early stages of the development. Analysts that work with MDD implement usability features manually once the code has been generated. This manual implementation contradicts the MDD paradigm and it may involve much rework. This paper proposes a method to elicit usability requirements at early stages of the software development process such a way non-experts at usability can use it. The approach consists of organizing several interface design guidelines and usability guidelines in a tree structure. These guidelines are shown to the an…
The American journey of Ernest Duvergier de Hauranne: France and United States Compared (1864-1865)
2018
The main theme of the days of study held in Cagliari on Pluralism and monism in political and social patterns of the modern and contemporary age has been declined in these pages through the comparison made by Ernest Duvergier de Hauranne (1843-1877) between the personal government of Napoleon III and the United States of America in the last period of the Civil war.
De quoi le Covid-19 est-il le nom ? L’impact du langage sur la prise en charge et le positionnement éthique par temps de pandémie
2020
Résumé L’irruption massive de l’expression Covid-19 dans le milieu hospitalier comme dans nos vies a fait apparaître une étrange analogie entre l’expansion d’un virus et la dissémination virale, elle aussi, d’une manière de parler, de formuler et de nommer pour agir. Cet article se propose de questionner l’impact de l’expression Covid-19 sur le langage des soignants. Il propose de discuter la dimension éthique d’un soin des mots du soin lorsqu’une manière de parler s’impose à eux. Il interroge également le pluralisme épistémologique et éthique engageant la médecine entre science, clinique et politique.
Europe's Path to Public Reason
2012
Chapter 7 highlights how addressing public issues publicly is a main target of European institutions, considering their commitment to the identification of shared values and the protection of rights. In consideration of this, it is reasonable to ask whether the "Public Reason" set forth by Rawls can be somehow applied to Europe's current perspective, understanding it to be the ruling criterion governing public issues. A major obstacle is to be found in the anti-pluralistic attitude which is widespread across the European states. However, constitutionalism, which is nowadays widely rooted on a global scale, makes contemporary political commu¬nities to characterize by disagreement and by the …
El derecho como modelo para las ciencias naturales
2005
El articulo comienza con una exposicion del modo tradicional de entender, durante siglos, la relacion entre ciencia juridica y ciencias naturales. Describe despues el cambio radical del contexto epistemologico de fondo que se ha producido en las ultimas cuatro decadas. Expone luego como, dentro de ese cambio, va apareciendo el derecho como modelo para las ciencias naturales, en fuerza de dos tipos diversos de analogia entre el derecho y esas ciencias. La ultima parte esta dedicada a proponer la concepcion del autor sobre las razones de la eleccion del derecho como modelo
Il progetto Fake News e lo spazio della città
2022
Attraverso una disamina di alcuni punti di passaggio e cambiamento della struttura delle tecnologie dell’informazione e della loro strumentalizzazione da parte dei sistemi di potere è possibile individuare alcune costanti utili per organizzare difese per una corretta informazione pubblica. Nella continua ricerca della libertà di comunicare le persone hanno bisogno di agganciare la dimensione del sociale in uno spazio della comunicazione in cui lo spazio fisico della città non è secondario. Questo perché la dimensione spaziale urbana e territoriale è l’ambiente indirettamente affetto dalle pratiche e politiche di governo della città generate dall’elaborazione delle informazioni pubbliche. Lo…
Dall'atomismo fisiologico al relativismo gnoseologico
2015
Parlare della Sicilia nel contesto della civiltà europea e mediterranea implica il doveroso richiamo ad una tradizione preziosa, che abbiamo ricevuto in eredità da un passato molto lontano, e che coincide con l’origine della filosofi a occidentale. Tale tradizione risale al periodo che intercorre tra il VII e il VI secolo a.C., cioè alla fase storica in cui sono sorte le prime scuole filosofi che nelle colonie dell’Asia Minore, prima, e nelle colonie della Magna Graecia, dopo.
