Blockchain review for battery supply chain monitoring and battery trading
2022
The use of technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT), data processing and blockchain have allowed companies to serve their customers with better quality, efficiency, reliability and in the shortest possible time. The growing adoption of electric vehicles on the market has increased the demand for batteries that may have numerous manufacturers. Life expectancy is affected on manufacture, but also on operational conditions. A large number of parameters have a role on battery's health and thousands of data need to be evaluated and combined. The present work investigates the scenario of the battery industry in order to implement a blockchain-based platform for the supply chain implementatio…
Energy Harvesting Enabled Energy Efficient Cognitive Machine-to-Machine Communications
2020
Energy harvesting based cognitive machine-to-machine (EH-CM2M) communication has been introduced to overcome the problem of spectrum scarcity and limited battery capacity by enabling M2M transmitters (M2M-TXs) to harvest energy from ambient radio frequency signals, as well as to reuse the resource blocks (RBs) allocated to CUs in an opportunistic manner. However, the complex interference scenarios and the stringent QoS requirements pose new challenges on resource allocation optimization. In this chapter, we consider how to maximize the energy efficiency of M2M-TXs via the joint optimization of channel selection, peer discovery, power control, and time allocation.

A sustainable phenolic compound extraction system from olive oil mill wastewater
2017
Abstract The reduction of environmental impact and the achievement of economic advantages based on by-product recovery is the aim of applying methodologies for phenolic compounds extraction from Olive Oil Mill Wastewater. Volume reduction of Olive Oil Mill Wastewater could generate important advantages in terms of waste disposal cost abatement and, in addition, reuse in the production of foods with health properties could lead to economic benefits. Despite the fact that literature shows that several techniques have been developed, few economic approaches have been presented. This paper assesses the economic feasibility of a system based on membrane filtration and reverse osmosis processes f…
The balancing act: How do moral norms and anticipated pride drive food waste/reduction behaviour?
2022
Food waste is a serious problem that impacts the environment and sustainability by increasing greenhouse gas emissions from landfills. Food waste also represents a social challenge because it raises serious concerns about food security. While acknowledging that households waste a great deal of food because they lack a proper routine for reusing leftovers and purchase more food than required, few studies have extensively examined the drivers of leftover reuse and over-ordering. We address this gap using the stimulus-organism-response paradigm. Moral norms and anticipated pride are conceptualised as stimuli that impact the organismic state of intentions against food waste and response in the …
Accelerating Causal Inference and Feature Selection Methods through G-Test Computation Reuse
2021
This article presents a novel and remarkably efficient method of computing the statistical G-test made possible by exploiting a connection with the fundamental elements of information theory: by writing the G statistic as a sum of joint entropy terms, its computation is decomposed into easily reusable partial results with no change in the resulting value. This method greatly improves the efficiency of applications that perform a series of G-tests on permutations of the same features, such as feature selection and causal inference applications because this decomposition allows for an intensive reuse of these partial results. The efficiency of this method is demonstrated by implementing it as…
Il restauro delle masserie tra conservazione della materia, reintegrazione strutturale e riuso
2010
I contenuti sono relativi all'intervento in un'architettura rurale che è tipica della campagna siciliana. I temi d'interesse sono la conservazione del carattere storico delle "masserie", talvolta allo stato di rudere, e la necessità di insediare nuove destinazioni d'uso e ricostruire la parti crollate in modo che risultino distinguibili. The contents are related to the intervention in rural architecture that is typical of the Sicilian countryside. Themes of interest are the conservation of the historic character of the "farms", sometimes in a state of ruin, and the need to establish new uses and rebuild the collapsed parts so that they are distinguishable.
