Are coastal communities able to pay for the protection of fish resources impacted by climate change?
2020
Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine inhabitants’ motivation and their willingness to pay to mitigate the impact of climate change on fish resources. Willingness to pay was tested empirically using survey data from 333 inhabitants of Sciacca, a fishing community in Sicily, Italy, which has the island’s second largest fishing fleet. People’s attitudes towards climate change, their degree of involvement in the issue, and their concerns about this phenomenon’s potential impact on the marine environment are the key factors affecting their willingness to pay. It was further found that respondents are willing to pay an average of €6.81 per month to support mitigation policies in the f…
Game Theoretic Decentralized Feedback Controls in Markov Jump Processes
2017
This paper studies a decentralized routing problem over a network, using the paradigm of mean-field games with large number of players. Building on a state-space extension technique, we turn the problem into an optimal control one for each single player. The main contribution is an explicit expression of the optimal decentralized control which guarantees the convergence both to local and to global equilibrium points. Furthermore, we study the stability of the system also in the presence of a delay which we model using an hysteresis operator. As a result of the hysteresis, we prove existence of multiple equilibrium points and analyze convergence conditions. The stability of the system is ill…
A decomposition approach to dual shuttle automated storage and retrieval systems
2016
[EN] Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS) have become vital in today¿s distribution and production environments, however it remains necessary to equip them with more efficient operational control policies. Motivated by real situations encountered by companies employing AS/RS, the present paper studies a miniload AS/RS system, with a dual shuttle crane in which a set of storage and retrieval requests must be scheduled such that the prioritized waiting time is minimized. Dual shuttle cranes have received minimal academic attention and thus continue to pose new problems that must be solved. The miniload AS/RS problem is addressed by decomposing it into a location assignment and sequ…
Understanding the Importance of Proper Incentives for Critical Infrastructures Management – How System Dynamics Can Help
2016
International audience; Computer and information systems are now at the core of numerous critical infrastructures. However, their security management is by far not a trivial issue. Further, these systems, by their very nature, belong to the domain of complex systems, where system dynamics (SD) is an established method, which aims at modelling such systems, their analysis and understanding. Further, on this basis it enables simulation of various policies to properly manage complex systems. More precisely, through understanding of the basic elements of the whole mosaic and their interplay, proper incentives can be tested. And this is important, because proper incentives can lead to the desire…
Participación sindical y salud laboral: una relación positiva
2018
espanolDespues de casi diez anos de reduccion progresiva de los registros estadisticos de accidentes de trabajo,la confluencia entre crisis economica y reforma laboral ha provocado, desde 2013, un repunte de lasiniestralidad, paralelo al incremento de la precariedad contractual, la contraccion de las politicaspublicas y empresariales en materia de salud laboral, asi como de la reduccion de la cobertura yfunciones de la representatividad sindical. El articulo revisa la regulacion normativa y evolucionreciente del modelo espanol de prevencion de riesgos laborales, tanto fisicos como psico-sociales,indagando sobre las causas y efectos de la correlacion detectada entre sus principales indicador…
Behavioural and structural interventions in cancer prevention: towards the 2030 SDG horizon
2020
Interventions in individual lifestyles have often been viewed as the main component of cancer prevention strategies. However, environmental factors may facilitate or impede healthy behaviours. The behavioural‐structural dichotomy of cancer prevention can only be resolved by incorporating the ‘Health in All Policies’ perspective at multiple levels (legislation, promotion of healthy choices, health support groups, health education).

Policiers, gendarmes et signalement descriptif. Représentations, apprentissages et pratiques d'une nouvelle technique de police judiciaire, en France…
2006
À partir des années 1880, les nouveaux procédés d’identification développés par Alphonse Bertillon à la Préfecture de police de Paris représentent des moyens modernes et efficaces de police judiciaire face à une criminalité perçue comme irrésistible. Parmi ceux-ci, le signalement descriptif, ou « portrait parlé », est réputé permettre la reconnaissance infaillible d’un individu dont les traits du visage auraient été minutieusement décrits par cette technique particulière. Fait notable, sans doute inédit et sans équivalent alors, cette technique est enseignée aux divers acteurs de la police française – policiers de la Préfecture de police, de la Sûreté générale, mais aussi gendarmes et garde…
Are there positive lessons for Italy's NHS resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic?
2020
The authors evaluate the importance of prevention measures and health care from their own experience and briefly analyse the factors that may have contributed to the rapid spread of Covid-19 in Italy, and hope this will feed into appropriate and new and improved health policies.
Hacia la ley europea del clima: las evaluaciones científicas y el futuro papel de las respuestas jurídicas de los estados miembros
2021
Los problemas climáticos son temas persistentes y omnipresentes dentro de las políticas y legislaciones contemporáneas, que exigen un enfoque interdisciplinario para promover soluciones jurídicas adecuadas para la complejidad del tema. Paradójicamente, las propagandas negacionistas, lejos de bloquear las acciones climáticas, las han propiciado, lo que ha llevado al establecimiento de un organismo científico super partes que reconociese las cuestiones climáticas a través de informes científicos avanzados: el Grupo Intergubernamental de Expertos sobre el Cambio Climático de la ONU (IPCC). Desde entonces, muchos países han usado los hallazgos del IPCC como base científica para desarrollar polí…
