Download or read book Digital Transformation of the Design Construction and Management Processes of the Built Environment written by Bruno Daniotti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-30 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book focuses on the development of methods, interoperable and integrated ICT tools, and survey techniques for optimal management of the building process. The construction sector is facing an increasing demand for major innovations in terms of digital dematerialization and technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, advanced manufacturing, robotics, 3D printing, blockchain technologies and artificial intelligence. The demand for simplification and transparency in information management and for the rationalization and optimization of very fragmented and splintered processes is a key driver for digitization. The book describes the contribution of the ABC Department of the Polytechnic University of Milan (Politecnico di Milano) to R&D activities regarding methods and ICT tools for the interoperable management of the different phases of the building process, including design, construction, and management. Informative case studies complement the theoretical discussion. The book will be of interest to all stakeholders in the building process – owners, designers, constructors, and faculty managers – as well as the research sector.

Download or read book Evidence Based Public Health written by Ross C. Brownson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-12-03 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are at least three ways in which a public health program or policy may not reach stated goals for success: 1) Choosing an intervention approach whose effectiveness is not established in the scientific literature; 2) Selecting a potentially effective program or policy yet achieving only weak, incomplete implementation or "reach," thereby failing to attain objectives; 3) Conducting an inadequate or incorrect evaluation that results in a lack of generalizable knowledge on the effectiveness of a program or policy; and 4) Paying inadequate attention to adapting an intervention to the population and context of interest To enhance evidence-based practice, this book addresses all four possibilities and attempts to provide practical guidance on how to choose, carry out, and evaluate evidence-based programs and policies in public health settings. It also begins to address a fifth, overarching need for a highly trained public health workforce. This book deals not only with finding and using scientific evidence, but also with implementation and evaluation of interventions that generate new evidence on effectiveness. Because all these topics are broad and require multi-disciplinary skills and perspectives, each chapter covers the basic issues and provides multiple examples to illustrate important concepts. In addition, each chapter provides links to the diverse literature and selected websites for readers wanting more detailed information. An indispensable volume for professionals, students, and researchers in the public health sciences and preventative medicine, this new and updated edition of Evidence-Based Public Health aims to bridge research and evidence with policies and the practice of public health.

This book was released on 2019-06-19 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses how labour law and welfare systems will be affected by the ongoing transformation of work. The first section considers demography from two different perspectives. On the one hand, it focuses on chronic diseases and their impact on work, emphasising the role and the regulation of welfare systems. On the other, attention is given to youth unemployment and to those forms of employment which might have an impact on young people. Section II touches upon the relationship between the environment and industrial relations, while the third part broaches the topic of the impact of technology in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, also known as Industry 4.0. As such, this volume provides an exhaustive picture of the changes currently underway, considering all the aspects which will affect work now and in the future.

Download or read book The Future of Law and Economics written by Guido Calabresi and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a concise, compelling argument, one of the founders and most influential advocates of the law and economics movement divides the subject into two separate areas, which he identifies with Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill. The first, Benthamite, strain, “economic analysis of law,” examines the legal system in the light of economic theory and shows how economics might render law more effective. The second strain, law and economics, gives equal status to law, and explores how the more realistic, less theoretical discipline of law can lead to improvements in economic theory. It is the latter approach that Judge Calabresi advocates, in a series of eloquent, thoughtful essays that will appeal to students and scholars alike.

Download or read book Il nuovo Codice degli Appalti e delle Concessioni written by Mario Canton and published by Mario Canton. This book was released on 2016-09-25 with total page 5889 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il profluvio di norme in materia di appalti emanato nelle ultime decadi mette a dura prova la memoria e l'operatività degli addetti al settore. Ogni nuovo atto normativo porta con sé infiniti rimandi e i periodi transitori sono particolarmente difficili da gestire senza scivolare in errori sempre possibili. Per venire incontro alle esigenze di rapida consultazione quotidiana si è pensato di produrre uno strumento che consenta di tenere sotto mano tutte le disposizioni e confrontarle agevolmente. Questo e-book riporta il testo del nuovo «Codice degli Appalti e delle Concessioni», approvato con decreto legislativo n. 50 del 18.4.2016, pubblicato nel supplemento ordinario n. 10/L alla Gazzetta Ufficiale - serie generale - n. 91 del 19 aprile 2016, con le correzioni apportate dal comunicato pubblicato nella Gazzetta Ufficiale - serie generale, n. 164 del 15 luglio 2016. Al testo integrale del Codice - compresivo di tutti gli allegati - sono collegate tutte le norme - legislative e tecniche - citate nell'articolato del testo (circa 150 provvedimenti «esterni»). Sono inoltre collegate tutte le norme previgenti, le disposizioni di delega e le norme attuate delle direttive 2014/23/UE, 2014/24/UE e 2014/25/UE secondo la tabella di concordanza pubblicata dal Ministero delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti nel supplemento ordinario n. 11 alla Gazzetta Ufficiale - serie generale - n. 91 del 19.4.2016. Al testo del Codice sono inoltre collegate tutte le linee guida sull'attuazione del medesimo, sin'ora approvate dall'Anac dopo il periodo di consultazione pubblica nonché l'elenco di tutti gli altri provvedimenti di attuazione previsti, con riportato il testo integrale di quelli già emanati all'atto della pubblicazione dell'e-book. Completano il materiale alcune tabelle riepilogative e/o esplicative di norme sparse nell'articolato, ragruppate per argomento e riguardanti termini, soglie, procedure, categorie, classifiche e raggruppamenti. Inoltre, è sembrato opportuno provvedere alla specifica individuazione della normativa tecnica, qualora sia citata dal Codice in forma generica. Questo e-book, strutturato in forma di ipertesto, consente di passare agevolmente da un blocco di informazioni all'altro e viceversa, consentendo la consultazione mobile dei dati su qualsivoglia dispositivo elettronico, dallo smartphone all'e-reader, dal tablet al personal computer. Tutta la normativa specifica sarà così immediatamente disponibile e facilmente consultabile per venire incontro alle esigenze di ogni giorno.

L'utima versione nota (nella bozza del 16 luglio 2021, completa di allegati) è stata inserita per conoscenza ed è consultabile tramite apposito collegamento collocato nell'introduzione alla 7ª edizione del testo.
