During the last years, a number of studies have experimented with applying process discovery techniques with the goal of automatically modelling human routines as if they were business processes. However, while promising results have already been achieved, applying process-oriented techniques to...

Objective: Coronavirus disease 2019 demonstrated the inconsistencies in adequately responding to biological threats on a global scale due to a lack of powerful tools for assessing various factors in the formation of the epidemic situation and its forecasting. Decision support systems have a role in...

In this paper, a new distributed protocol is proposed to force consensus in a discrete-time network of scalar agents with an arbitrarily assignable convergence rate. Several simulations validate the performances and the improvements with respect to more standard protocols.

The aim of this paper is to optimize the shape of a highly conductive interface in order to drain the maximum amount of heat. Given the ubiquity of irregular interfaces in heat transmission processes, we model such interfaces by Koch-mixture fractal layers. We propose a dynamics that iteratively...

Public procurement is viewed as a major market force that can be used to promote innovation and drive small and medium-sized enterprises growth. In such cases, procurement system design relies on intermediates that provide vertical linkages between suppliers and providers of innovative services and...

Motivation: Disease gene prioritization consists in identifying genes that are likely to be involved in the mechanisms of a given disease, providing a ranking of such genes. Recently, the research community has used computational methods to uncover unknown gene-disease associations; these methods...

We study opinion dynamics in multi-agent networks when a bias toward one of two pos-sible opinions exists, for example reflecting a status quo versus a superior alternative. Our aim is to investigate the combined effect of bias, network structure, and opinion dynamics on the convergence of the...

We provide data describing all the largest Italian Universities from several perspectives, including scientific research, administrative and economic point of view. In particular, associated with each University, we have the following data.(a) The list of the most representative research keywords (...

The development of information and communication technologies accompanied by the exponential growth of electronic scholarly publications and computer archives has led, on the one hand, to the development of techniques for the systematic analysis of published literature and, on the other hand, to a...

One of the most significant problems in the development of quantitative models to assess the performance of decision-making units (DMUs) is the availability of information coded into variables and indicators that are proxies for the relevant dimensions of the models: resources or inputs, products...
