Anatomy of Trading Rules
2017
This key chapter presents a methodology for examining how the trading signal in a moving average rule is computed. Then using this methodology the chapter examines the computation of trading signals in all moving average rules and investigates the commonalities and differences between the rules. The main conclusion that can be drawn from this study is that the computation of the trading indicator in every rule, based on either one or multiple moving averages, can equivalently be interpreted as the computation of a single weighted moving average of price changes. The analysis presented in this chapter uncovers the anatomy of moving average trading rules, provides very useful insights about p…
Rule of Law e particolarismo etico
2016
Questo scritto è dedicato alla trattazione del problema se l’ideale del Rule of Law sia compatibile con il particolarismo etico. Sostengo che, nonostante l’apparenza, la risposta a questa domanda è affermativa. Prima di presentare i miei argomenti a favore di questa tesi è necessario (i) chiarire che cosa intendo per ‘Rule of Law’ e ‘particolarismo etico’ (parr. 2 e 3); (ii) spiegare perché mai ci si dovrebbe porre l’interrogativo se il Rule of Law sia o no compatibile con il particolarismo etico (par. 4); e infine (iii) chiarire perché la risposta a questo interrogativo sia apparentemente negativa (par. 4). A questo punto, presento i miei argomenti – tre – a sostegno della tesi della compa…
Rawls e il Rule of Law
2004
L'articolo sostiene che il pensiero di Rawls può essere interpretato come una trascrizione in chiave politica del modello giuridico basato sui principi del rule of law. Questa chiave di lettura potrebbe risultare illuminante sui rapporti fra diritto e politica nel pensiero di Rawls.

4th International Workshop on Language Engineering (ATEM 2007)
2008
Following the great success of previous editions, ATEM2007 is the 4thedition of the ATEM workshop series. The first two editions were held with WCRE in 2003 and 2004, while the 3rdone was held with MoDELS 2006. ATEM has always been focused on engineering of language descriptions. In order to cover as many aspects of language descriptions important for greater success and adoption of model-driven engineering, ATEM has been evolving so as its scope: The first edition was about metamodelsand schemas. The second about was metamodels, schemasand grammars. The third edition was about metamodels, schemas, grammarsand ontologies.
Découverte des relations dans les réseaux sociaux
2011
In recent years, social network sites exploded in popularity and become an important part of the online activities on the web. This success is related to the various services/functionalities provided by each site (ranging from media sharing, tagging, blogging, and mainly to online social networking) pushing users to subscribe to several sites and consequently to create several social networks for different purposes and contexts (professional, private, etc.). Nevertheless, current tools and sites provide limited functionalities to organize and identify relationship types within and across social networks which is required in several scenarios such as enforcing users’ privacy, and enhancing t…
Avian Clock gene polymorphism: evidence for a latitudinal cline in allele frequencies
2007
In comparison with most animal behaviours, circadian rhythms have a well-characterized molecular genetic basis. Detailed studies of circadian clock genes in 'model' organisms provide a foundation for interpreting the functional and evolutionary significance of polymorphic circadian clock genes found within free-living animal populations. Here, we describe allelic variation in a region of the avian Clock orthologue which encodes a functionally significant polyglutamine repeat (ClkpolyQcds), within free-living populations of two passerine birds, the migratory bluethroat (Luscinia svecica) and the predominantly nonmigratory blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus). Multiple ClkpolyQcds alleles were foun…
Rapid evolutionary adaptation to elevated salt concentrations in pathogenic freshwater bacteria Serratia marcescens.
2014
Rapid evolutionary adaptions to new and previously detrimental environmental conditions can increase the risk of invasion by novel pathogens. We tested this hypothesis with a 133-day-long evolutionary experiment studying the evolution of the pathogenic Serratia marcescens bacterium at salinity niche boundary and in fluctuating conditions. We found that S. marcescens evolved at harsh (80 g/L) and extreme (100 g/L) salt conditions had clearly improved salt tolerance than those evolved in the other three treatments (ancestral conditions, nonsaline conditions, and fluctuating salt conditions). Evolutionary theories suggest that fastest evolutionary changes could be observed in intermediate sele…
Outside-host phage therapy as a biological control against environmental infectious diseases
2018
Background Environmentally growing pathogens present an increasing threat for human health, wildlife and food production. Treating the hosts with antibiotics or parasitic bacteriophages fail to eliminate diseases that grow also in the outside-host environment. However, bacteriophages could be utilized to suppress the pathogen population sizes in the outside-host environment in order to prevent disease outbreaks. Here, we introduce a novel epidemiological model to assess how the phage infections of the bacterial pathogens affect epidemiological dynamics of the environmentally growing pathogens. We assess whether the phage therapy in the outside-host environment could be utilized as a biologi…
SISTEMI DI CORONAMENTO E SMALTIMENTO DELLE ACQUE METEORICHE : LA REGOLA DELL'ARTE DAI TRATTATI AI MANUALI
2018
Il saggio approfondisce gli aspetti storici e costruttivi dei cornicioni che, da elementi di protezione, possono divenire, a causa della propria forma, talvolta anche elementi di degrado e dissesto. La struttura del testo del presente volume si compone di tre parti principali, presentando alcuni aspetti tecnici e questioni di non comune attenzione. La prima parte analizza una disamina sui valori formali e materiali del cornicione; esso presenta, infatti, caratteri complessi e riassume, proprio per la doppia valenza di ornamento (coronamento dell’edificio) e componente funzionale (sistema di allontanamento delle acque meteoriche dalla facciata) le problematiche che derivano da esigenze forma…
