Il numero 7 di AGATHÓN raccoglie saggi, studi, ricerche e progetti sul tema dal titolo ‘Dal Mega al Nano: la Complessità del Progetto Multiscalare’, tema indissolubilmente legato alla sempre maggiore richiesta di trans e multidisplinarietà del progetto. La capacità di effettuare ‘salti di scala’, di agire su scale diverse e di costruirne di nuove o di mutare il senso di quelle comunemente accettate è una pratica comune dell’approccio al progetto, e riguarda da sempre gli architetti, gli ingegneri, i designer e gli artisti, nei molteplici significati simbolici e reali della misura di un territorio, di una città, di un’architettura e di un oggetto. I concetti di scala e di misura sono indispe…
An Information Systems Design Product Theory for Software Project Estimation and Measurement Systems
2009
There is relatively little research on software Project Estimation and Measurement Systems (PEMS). Commercial PEMS vary in functionality and effective- ness. Their intended users thus do not know what to ex- pect from PEMS and how to evaluate them. This paper creates an information system design product theory for the class of PEMS that prescribes the meta-requirements, the meta-design, and applicable theories for all products within the class. Meta-requirements and the meta-design are derived from the project estimation and measurement literature, experiences obtained during more than ten years of empirical work in Finnish Software Measurement Association, and a commercially available PEMS.
The gait is less stable in children with cerebral palsy in normal and dual-task gait compared to typically developed peers
2021
There is limited evidence about gait stability and its alteration by concurrent motor and cognitive tasks in children with cerebral palsy (CP). We examined gait stability and how it is altered by constrained cognitive or motor task in CP and their typically developed (TD) controls. Gait kinematics were recorded using inertial-measurement units (IMU) from 18 patients with hemiplegia (13.5 +/- 2.4 years), 12 with diplegia (13.0 +/- 2.1 years), and 31 TD controls (13.5 +/- 2.2 years) during unconstrained gait, and motor (carrying a tray) and cognitive (word naming) task constrained gait at preferred speed (similar to 400 steps/task). Step duration, its standard deviation and refined-compound-m…
Project Scheduling Methods Based on Theory of Ordered Fuzzy Numbers
2020
In this the paper we present new methods, called OFCPM, OFPERT, for estimating a project completion time in the situation when activity duration times in the project are given in the form of Ordered Fuzzy Numbers OFNs. Extended Critical Path Method and Project Evaluation and Review Technique have been developed as new methods dedicated to project scheduling, preserving its basic concept. Ordered fuzzy numbers are used to project scheduling under uncertainty. The duration time of each project activity is estimated by experts (experts views of the activity duration time) based on their experience. These new methods will be verify on some examples. The comparison of our fuzzy approaches to exi…

Salso-bromo-iodine thermal water: a nonpharmacological alternative treatment for postnasal drip-related cough in children with upper respiratory trac…
2018
Postnasal drip (PND)-related cough is a very common symptom in patients with upper respiratory tract infections (URTis). At present, there is not a standard treatment for postnasal drip and postnasal drip-related cough. The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the efficacy of a specific salso-bromoiodine thermal water containing hyaluronic acid and grapefruit seed extract (SBI-H-GSE) comparing it with a normal saline solution in children with URTis who refer PND-related symptoms. The study was randomized, single-blind, and controlled. Study group (75 children) was treated with SBI-HGSE and control group (65 children) was treated with a normal saline solution; both compounds were administ…
Evolutionary convergence and nitrogen metabolism in Blattabacterium strain Bge, primary endosymbiont of the cockroach Blattella germanica.
2009
Bacterial endosymbionts of insects play a central role in upgrading the diet of their hosts. In certain cases, such as aphids and tsetse flies, endosymbionts complement the metabolic capacity of hosts living on nutrient-deficient diets, while the bacteria harbored by omnivorous carpenter ants are involved in nitrogen recycling. In this study, we describe the genome sequence and inferred metabolism of Blattabacterium strain Bge, the primary Flavobacteria endosymbiont of the omnivorous German cockroach Blattella germanica. Through comparative genomics with other insect endosymbionts and free-living Flavobacteria we reveal that Blattabacterium strain Bge shares the same distribution of functio…
International network of cancer genome projects
2010
International audience; The International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) was launched to coordinate large-scale cancer genome studies in tumors from 50 different cancer types and/or subtypes that are of clinical and societal importance across the globe. Systematic studies of over 25,000 cancer genomes at the genomic, epigenomic, and transcriptomic levels will reveal the repertoire of oncogenic mutations, uncover traces of the mutagenic influences, define clinically-relevant subtypes for prognosis and therapeutic management, and enable the development of new cancer therapies.
