PSPACE Automata for Description Logics
(CEUR, 2006)Tree automata are often used for satisfiability testing in the area of description logics, which usually yields ExpTime complexity results. We examine conditions under which this result can be improved, and we define two ... -
Pstable semantics for logic programs with possibilistic ordered disjunction
(Springer, 2009)In this paper we define the semantics for capturing possibilistic ordered disjunction programs based on pstable semantics. The pstable semantics, based on paraconsistent logic, allows to treat inconsistency programs. ... -
Psychological wellbeing and the use of the internet in adolescence
(Taylor and Francis, 2016)Rather than seeing information and communication technologies as dangerous for young people's mental health, we propose the adoption of a more articulated vision of risk pathways. The two relational experiences offered by ... -
PTR-MS Characterization of VOCs Associated with Commercial Aromatic Bakery Yeasts of Wine and Beer Origin
(2016)In light of the increasing attention towards “green” solutions to improve food quality, the use of aromatic-enhancing microorganisms offers the advantage to be a natural and sustainable solution that did not negatively ... -
PTR-ToF-MS and bioprocesses: Potential in monitoring VOCs release by eukaryotic microbes
(2015, 2015)The release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by eukaryotic microbes is of interest for several fields, comprising food, environmental, biotechnological and medical applications. In addition, it represents an intriguingly ... -
PTR-ToF-MS Coupled with an Automated Sampling System and Tailored Data Analysis for Food Studies: Bioprocess Monitoring, Screening and Nose-space Analysis
(2017)Proton Transfer Reaction (PTR), combined with a Time-of-Flight (ToF) Mass Spectrometer (MS) is an analytical approach based on chemical ionization that belongs to the Direct-Injection Mass Spectrometric (DIMS) technologies. ... -
The Public Value of Anthropology: Engaging Critical Social Issues Through Ethnography
(Bozen-Bolzano University Press, 2015)Accessible to non-specialists and researchers interested in ethnography, this volume offers an introduction into the uses of anthropology for engaging contemporary social issues. The editors’ essay surveys the development ... -
Pulsed electric fields assisted microbial inactivation of S. cerevisiae cells by high pressure carbon dioxide
(2010)The effect of pulsed electric field (PEF) pretreatments on the inactivation of microbial populations by high pressure carbon dioxide (HPCD) processing was studied. Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells suspended in McIlvaine ... -
Pump-as-Turbine for energy recovery applications: the case study of an aqueduct
(Elsevier, 2016)Pump-as-Turbine (PaT) technology is taking the field in different small-hydro or energy recovery applications. These machines can be installed in water distribution grids to have pressure levels adjustment and electrical ... -
Pupils' interpersonal problems and occupational stress in teachers. Preliminary results
(2014)This study investigates whether or not high school pupil's behaviour has any relevant impact as regards teachers occupational stress and therefore contributing to the burnout process with its already known risk factors. ... -
Purpose Design for Electric Cars: Parameters Defining Exterior Vehicle Proportions
(TU München, 2014)Vehicle architecture is expected to change in the next years with the introduction of new electric drivetrain systems, but the evolution of car exterior proportions is still uncertain. For this reason, an investigation on ... -
The pursuit of international opportunities in family firms: Generational differences and the role of knowledge-based resources
(2018)Research Summary: We argue that willingness (attitude toward risk, return, and socioemotional wealth), ability (extent of control), and resource availability influence the internationalization of family firms. We hypothesize ... -
Putting the Developer in-the-loop: an Interactive GA for Software Re-Modularization
(2012)This paper proposes the use of Interactive Genetic Algorithms (IGAs) to integrate developer’s knowledge in a re-modularization task. Specifically, the proposed algorithm uses a fitness composed of automatically-evaluated ... -
Pyrolysis analysis and solid residue stabilization of polymers, waste tyres and sewage sludge
(Springer Verlag (Germany), 2010)Purpose The pyrolysis thermal treatment of several waste such as polymers (PE, PVC, PS), sewage sludge, tyres, waste wood as spruce sawdust and the successive stabilization of the pyrolysis residue has been investigated ... -
Pyrolysis-vitrification process applied to disposal of sewage sludge and refinery sludge: Comparison by energetical point of view
(International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management, 2008) -
Pythagoras on the rocks: A proof with bricks
(2016)In this short paper a practical and simple proof of the Pythagorean theorem is proposed. It uses colourful interlocking plastic bricks with two shapes: a cube that measures two centimeters on each side and a right prism ...
