Evaluation of web browsing experience by people with cognitive disability
2012
After a review of research in last 10 years we have seen the low output of work on the usability of the web, with respect to users with cognitive disabilities. This time we intend to explore the problems faced with mild or moderate intellectual disabilities when using the World Wide Web. We conducted a study to assess the Web site navigation experience using the Usability Lab of Access Research Unit, University of Valencia, where we recorded and analyzed the Web-user interaction using the technique of Thought Manifesto and Interview, from a qualitative methodological approach, to thereby detect the problems they have when surfing the Web sites for people with cognitive deficits.

A STEEPLED Analysis of the SPI Manifesto
2019
Software Process Improvement (SPI) has been founded on the belief that a well-defined and executed process is likely to produce a high-quality pro-duct. Improving a product might provide insights for future improvement efforts. However, this bottom-up approach does not necessarily lead to improvement, considering in particular that software products/artefacts are usually, unique. In contrast, an improved process is a top-down approach, which is applicable to all products (outputs and outcomes). The SPI Manifesto places people, business focus, and organisational change at the core of Software Process Improvement practices. In so doing, certain SPI principles guide the behaviour of individual…
An “Objectivists” Anthology: from Manifesto to Tradition
2009
Il s’agit dans cet article de présenter An “Objectivists” Anthology (1932) du poète américain Louis Zukofsky en évaluant l’aspect polémique du discours qui le définit, et ce d’abord au regard de son évolution en tant que projet éditorial (1931-32). Ensuite sera examiné le parcours critique de cette anthologie dans la poésie américaine au vingtième siècle : entre site de marginalisation dans les années trente et l’émergence d’une tradition du retour à l’avant-garde dans les années soixante-dix. Dans quelle mesure la continuité d’une écriture « objectiviste » ne se révèle-t-elle pas comme modèle dans la pratique contemporaine ? Enfin, à supposer que les caractéristiques rhétoriques de l’antho…

Il beato Pino Puglisi come educatore
2019
Il testo presenta un breve profilo del sacerdote palermitano ucciso dalla mafia siciliana nel 1993 e che la Chiesa cattolica ha proclamato beato nel 2013. Per coglierna lla singolarità, la riflessione viene comdotta sulla rilenzanza che egli ha avuto in vita come educatore. Vengono forniti alcui dati biografici essenziali e si parla dell'esperienza della sua proposta educativa originale, i campi-scuola estivi, dai quali emerge con chiarezza lo stile educativo e si comprende come alcuni degli scritti che ci ha lasciato formano nel loro insieme un vero e proprio manifesto pedagogico. Ma l'invenzione educativa e politica più interessante è stato il Centro di accoglienza che egli ha creato per …
Future directions in Agile research: Alignment and divergence between research and practice
2017
Editorial article Since the publication of Agile Manifesto in 2001, agile methods have transited from a grass- root initiative among enthusiastic advocates and developers to a mainstream software development approach adopted by both small and large companies worldwide. Meanwhile research on agile methods has grown rapidly and steadily into an established research area, evidenced by dedicated conferences (e.g., XP conference series, research track of previous Agile Conference series), special issues and sections in top Information Systems and Software Engineering journals. However, practitioners and consultants have largely driven the advancement in agile field, and agile research has lagged…
Il manifesto attuale/The modern poster
2007
Mentre affrettate sentenze sulla fine del manifesto azzerano ogni possibilità di collocarlo dentro un tracciato evolutivo, la strada percorribile, all'opposto, è quella delle riletture di un artefatto comunicativo e delle sue specificità. A partire dalla sua matrice storica che fa delle origini di questa tipologia un evento cruciale per capire le ragioni e i modi attuali della comunicazione.
Pre-visioni per Milano
2016
L’Aiap ha 70 anni. Già 70 anni? No, solo 70 anni. La frase è ripresa da un manifesto di Massimo Dradi del 1978, solo il numero è modificato per potersi adattare alla reale età dell’associazione, che nell’anno appena trascorso ha celebrato il settantesimo anniversario dalla sua fondazione, mentre il senso è funzionale al rivendicare la scelta deliberata di adoperare una duplice visione, capace di guardare al passato nel conoscere e tutelare la storia e al contempo di guardare al futuro nel prefigurare nuovi scenari per la disciplina e i designer della comunicazione visiva.
