This paper presents the first results of the research agreement signed by the Federico II University and CDP Immobiliare concerning reusing  and recycling construction waste in the urban regeneration project. The research is aimed to develop a technical protocol for the ex-ante evaluation of the demolition operations, with a special focus on the criteria for picking the material samples to undergo chemical-physical analysis. The article is focused on the demolition process, implementing a BIM-based filing of the building system and aimed at a preliminary understanding of the material quantity, the material consistency and the state of conservation of the elements to be demolished. A tentative pre-characterisation, and an inventory of any contaminants present in the materials are also provided. In the form of discussion, further implications related the building characterisation and the planning of material flows with the reuse and recycle supply chains are provided as well.

Post Assessment

In this article, we aim to promote a methodology to analyze the effects of urban regeneration in historical sites. Different case studies are observed in depth, and they allow us to understand certain aspects concerning ex-post and ex-ante assessments. This methodology, which is supported by Geographic Information System (GIS) software and an online database, is based on different phases: the first is the quantification of the resources employed within the process, giving attention to the policies that are the basis for social and environmental changes. Then, the analysis moves to the effects of the interventions. In particular, the goal of the methodology was to understand how different urban operations can contribute to creating public value, and importance was given to the available tools for public bodies to develop partnerships and to capture that value. With the ex-post assessment, it was feasible to compare the situations before and after the realization of the projects, whereas, with the ex-ante assessment, it was viable to assess different possible development scenarios and compare them with the baseline of the current situation. The methodology was tested for the ex-post assessment case study of the city of Porto (PT) and for the ex-ante assessment case study of the city of Brescia (IT).

Rational Reasoning

Abstract Cushman characterizes rationalization as the inverse of rational reasoning, but this distinction is psychologically questionable. Coherence-based reasoning highlights a subtler form of bidirectionality: By distorting task attributes to make one course of action appear superior to its rivals, a patina of rationality is bestowed on the choice. This mechanism drives choice and action, rather than just following in their wake.

Historical Centre

In the 1970s, the fragile historical centre of the city of Perugia was a key area where the binomial of sustainable mobility and urban regeneration was developed and applied. At the turn of the xxi century, the low carbon automatic people-mover Minimetrò broadened that application from the city's historical centre to the outskirts, promoting the enhancement of several urban environments. This paper is the outcome of an investigation of original sources, field surveys and direct interviews, which addresses the Minimetrò as the backbone of a wide regeneration process which has had a considerable impact on the economic development of a peripheral area of the city which was previously devoid of any clear urban sense. The conclusion proposes some solutions to improve the nature of the Minimetrò as an experimental alternative means of transport.

W trakcie procesu budżetowego występuje szereg nieefektywności, tym silniejszych, im większe jest dane przedsiębiorstwo. Jednym z powszechnych zjawisk jest ukrywanie przez pracowników informacji o faktycznych możliwościach rozwoju biznesu, aby negocjować jak najniższe poziomy celów do swych systemów motywacyjnych. Wpływa to bezpośrednio na spadek tempa rozwoju danej instytucji lub wzrost jej kosztów działania. W niniejszym opracowaniu przedstawiony jest model systemu motywacyjnego, który zapobiega przyjmowaniu zaniżonych celów do budżetów. Jego istotą jest wprowadzenie do mechanizmu premiowania parametru ambitności, określanego ex ante na etapie zatwierdzania celów. Odpowiednie ukształtowanie parametrów macierzy współczynnika ambitności, realizacji planu oraz stawek wynagrodzenia zmiennego sprawia, iż najlepszą strategią dla pracownika jest zgłaszanie do budżetu celów zgodnych z jego faktycznymi możliwościami realizacji.

Strukturelle Veränderungen auf dem Markt für Finanzdienstleistungen haben in der Kreditwirtschaft einem „Trend zu Größe und Fusion“ Vorschub geleistet, der im Bereich der Genossenschaftsbanken besonders ausgeprägt ist. Hier hat sich in den letzten 20 Jahren die Zahl der selbständigen Primärbanken halbiert. In der Literatur liegt eine Vielzahl von Beiträgen vor, in denen Motive und Bedingungskonstellationen von Fusionen ausführlich diskutiert werden. Bisher ungeklärt ist dagegen die Frage, ob sich eine typische Fusionsbank kennzeichnen läßt. Insbesondere liegt keine Untersuchung vor, die feststellt, ob es einem externen Analysten ex ante gelingen kann, übertragende Fusionsbanken in der Gesamtheit aller Institute zu identifizieren. Im folgenden ist zu untersuchen, inwieweit dies allein mit Hilfe von Jahresabschlußinformationen möglich ist.Eine Unterschiedlichkeit von übertragenden Genossenschaftsbanken im Vergleich zu Instituten, die im Untersuchungszeitraum nicht an einer Fusion beteiligt sind, kann Rückschlüsse auf betriebswirtschaftliche Fusionsgründe und Motive vermitteln und als Grundlage für eine externe Fusionsprognose dienen. Dadurch ließe sich mit statistischen Mitteln eine Vorauswahl „fusionswahrscheinlicher“ Institute vornehmen und ggf. rechtzeitig auf eine Fusion hinarbeiten. Für die genossenschaftlichen Verbände und andere Institutionen, die im Finanzdienstleistungsbereich beratend tätig sind, erlaubte eine hinreichend gesicherte Auswahl die Eingrenzung eines Klientels mit erfahrungsgemäß hohem Beratungsbedarf
