A study of a religious organization for youths (aged 13-14) founded in Florence in 1411 that is firmly grounded on archival and contemporary documents, and covers a variety of fields of interest.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th Workshop on New Frontiers in Quantitative Methods in Informatics, InfQ 2017, held in Venice, Italy, in December 2017. The 11 revised full papers and the one revised short paper presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 22 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on networking and mobile applications; applications of quantitative modeling; big data processing and IoT; theory, methods and tools for quantitative analysis.
This present book includes a set of selected best extended papers from the 12th International Conference on Simulation and Modeling Methodologies, Technologies and Applications (SIMULTECH 2022), that was held in Lisbon, Portugal, from July 14 to 16, 2022. The conference brought together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in methodologies and applications of modeling and simulation. New and innovative solutions are reported in this book. A selection was made after the conference, based also on the conference chairs assessment, reviewers’ assessment, quality of presentation and audience interest, so that this book includes the extended and revised versions of the very best papers of the conference. New and innovative solutions are reported in this book.

Comprehensive and authoritative resource paving the way for the integration of machine-type communications (MTC) and satellite connectivity toward 6G era This book focuses on the integration of machine-type communications (MTC) and satellite connectivity toward the 6th generation of mobile systems (i.e., the “6G”). Integrating these two technologies, especially within the emerging direct-to-satellite (DtS) concept employing direct connectivity between an MTC terminal and a satellite-based gateway, will be critical in enabling the future Internet of Things (IoT) applications in remote areas with limited connectivity infrastructure available. To this end, the book delivers an in-depth anal...
The textbook covers the main aspects of Edge Computing, from a thorough look at the technology to the standards and industry associations working in the field. The book is conceived as a textbook for graduate students but also functions as a working guide for developers, engineers, and researchers. The book aims not only at providing a comprehensive technology and standard reference overview for students, but also useful research insights and practical exercises for edge software developers and investigators in the area (and for students looking to apply their skills). A particular emphasis is given Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) as defined in European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), in relationship with other standard organizations like 3GPP, thus in alignment with the recent industry efforts to produce harmonized standards for edge computing leveraging both ETSI ISG MEC and 3GPP specifications. Practical examples of Edge Computing implementation from industry groups, associations, companies and edge developers, complete the book and make it useful for students entering the field. The book includes exercises, examples, and quizzes throughout.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed conference proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Cognitive Radio Oriented Wireless Networks, CROWNCOM 2016, held in Grenoble, France, May 30 – April 1, 2016. The 62 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and cover the evolution of cognitive radio technology pertaining to 5G networks. The papers are clustered to topics on dynamic spectrum access/management, networking protocols for CR, modeling and theory, HW architecture and implementations, next generation of cognitive networks, standards and business models, emerging applications for cognitive networks.
This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Recent Advances in Cellular D2D Communications" that was published in Future Internet
Nella sua prima vita Carmen Casanova era una grafica editoriale. Poi una brutta esperienza ha cambiato tutto e ora è socia di uno studio legale specializzato nella difesa delle donne. Finché non viene avvicinata da una cliente misteriosa, vittima di violenze domestiche. Sembrerebbe una storia tristemente comune, se il marito non facesse parte di un clan mafioso. Il procuratore aggiunto Luigi Lo Presti vive sotto scorta da quando ha mandato in prigione il primogenito di quello stesso clan e hanno cercato di ucciderlo. È a lui che Carmen si rivolge, perché sa che la sua cliente avrà bisogno della protezione della Direzione Distrettuale Antimafia. Inizia così una collaborazione che li porterà sempre più vicini. Ad accompagnarli, quasi come una colonna sonora dello spirito, le canzoni di Battiato che arrivano ad alto volume dal bar dietro il palazzo di giustizia. Ma è giusto abbandonarsi all’amore (come nel Giappone delle geishe), se sei nel mirino di un clan mafioso? Lo Presti sembra pensare di no, ma le circostanze potrebbero smentirlo. #profondorosa
