The Studio: Reflections and Issues Arising
1999
An advanced Telematic Studio was built at the University of Jyvaskyla to combine the latest technologies for local and distributed work and/or meetings. The objectives were to combine leading edge technologies with ethnographic design principles derived from CSCW and HCI to support a broad range of activities. We informed the design by studies of similar facilities on other sites. The Studio is popular, and it is easy to give glowing accounts of its use. Nevertheless, over three years a significant number of problems have arisen with both technologies and uses. Some of these are local. Others may be generalisable to any ‘cooperative building’. For example: problems with videoconferencing; i…

Per una rilettura kantiana del principio di causalità
2018
There is no contradiction between Kant’s statement that the proposition, “every alteration has its cause,” is of no interest to the Critique of Pure Reason because of its dependence on empirical contents (KrV, B 3) and his use of the same proposition as an example of pure a priori knowledge (KrV, B 5). There is only the arduousness and sometimes also the ambiguity of a passage in which Kant attempts to establish a new basis for the validity of the principle of causality.
Fundusz Medyczny - organizacja i zasady gospodarki finansowej
2021
Celem artykułu jest analiza przepisów normujących organizację i zasady gospodarki finansowej Funduszu Medycznego w kontekście funkcji, jakie w doktrynie prawa finansowego przypisuje się funduszom celowym. W pierwszej części opracowania poddano ocenie regulacje dotyczące organizacji i zadań tej jednostki. Drugą poświęcono przedstawieniu źródeł finansowania oraz zasad gospodarki finansowej Funduszu, zwracając szczególną uwagę na problem zasilania tej jednostki tzw. wpłatą z budżetu państwa. Z uwagi na ograniczone ramy artykułu do odrębnego opracowania pozostawiono problematykę programów inwestycyjnych oraz kwestię trybu i zasad przekazywania środków z Funduszu. Stosując metody właściwe współc…
THE SCUOLA OFFICINA MECCANICA IN VILLAGGIO MONTE DEGLI ULIVI IN RIESI. READING AND ANALYSIS THROUGH SURVEYING.
2017
This research analyses in depth the project of one of the most representative work of the Modern Architectural Movement in Sicily – the Scuola Officina Meccanica, located in Villaggio Monte degli Ulivi, in Riesi (CL), designed by the architect Leonardo Ricci between 1962 and 1968. The main objective is to contribute to the conservation of the architectural work through its analysis and study for a careful and conscious restoration. The research methodology aimed to retrace the compositional and geometric principles that defined the design process and its unique configuration.
Generation of Design Principles as Knowledge Conversion - Elucidating Dynamics
2021
In this paper we apply the perspective of knowledge conversion with recent identified core elements for developing design principles to elucidate the dynamics of design principles. In the paper, the elements of influence, actors, and formulation are integrated in a knowledge conversion process of socialization, externalization, combination, and internalization – through which tacit knowledge is made explicit, shared, and turned into action. We exemplify this process with three empirical cases using action design research (ADR) to develop IT artifacts and generate design principles. Our paper shows the dynamics across a process of generating design principles. Viewing the generation of desig…
Internal audit professional principles and academic literature over the last decade: is there a gap to bridge
2022
The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) has defined the ethical principles internal auditors must adhere to, allowing them to create a common understanding of ethical behaviour within their profession, thereby promoting ethical culture. This paper aims to analyse the role of these principles in the main branches of internal audit research over the last decade. We examine the most important articles published in this field and categorise them into seven main strands. We assess the extent to which these strands focus on the IIA ethical principles, aiming to identify research gaps in the extant literature. Our findings show that the literature dealing with ethical principles in the recruitmen…
Influence of Ad Congruence and Social Cues on the Probability of Choosing a Restaurant
2020
Abstract. Information processing of digital content includes conscious and un-conscious processes, memory, attitudes, and emotions and moods. Build up into the Heuristic‐Systematic Model, that states that persuasion can occur through a systematic or heuristic way, this research explores the effect of social media (SM) ratings and the ad content embedded in the SM website. Online ratings (part of the user-generated content (UGC) in SM platforms) are often heuristics cues. Subtle forms of congruence, such as the matching category between a restaurant advertiser and the third-party ad, as well as UGC, could have an impact on con-sumers’ attitudes towards the former. However, research on …
How and Why to Start and Run a SIGCHI Local Chapter
2015
There is a vast and increasing interest towards local HCI communities around the globe and in particular on geographical areas in which HCI has only recently started to gain increasing interest by local industries as well as academic institutions. A SIGCHI Local Chapter is one of the ways a local HCI community can organize and get visibility and support for their activities. However, many active volunteers in this field might not be aware of this possibility. The main goal of the Chapters' SIG in CHI'15 is to inform interested parties of SIGCHI Local Chapters and to find ways in which SIGCHI could better support local HCI communities with their various needs all over the world.
"Facta non verba" : an experiment on pledging and giving
2015
International audience; We design an experiment to investigate whether asking people to state how much they will donate to a charity (i.e., to pledge) increases their actual donation. Individuals’ endowment is either certain or a random variable. We study different types of pledges, namely, private, public and irrevocable, which differ in terms of the cost to the individual for not keeping the promise. We show that in absence of endowment uncertainty, private and public pledges are associated with lower donations as compared to donations in the no-pledge case: private pledges slightly reduce donations and public pledges reduce them more significantly. Donations increase with uncertainty (in…
