Tutela giudiziale dei diritti fondamentali nel contesto europeo: il “dialogo” tra le corti nel disordine delle fonti

L’articolo ha ad oggetto il ruolo dei giudici e dell’interpretazione giudiziale nella ricerca di un “nuovo ordine” delle fonti del diritto in materia di diritti fondamentali nel contesto europeo. In primo luogo, mette in evidenza come l’indeterminatezza dei rinvii incrociati contenuti nella Costituzione italiana, nella Convenzione per la salvaguardia dei diritti umani e delle libertà fondamentali e nella Carta dei diritti fondamentali dell’Unione europea lasci spazio per prese di posizione alternative, e in competizione tra loro, in merito alla definizione di una gerarchia tra queste fonti del diritto. In secondo luogo, concentrandosi su come la questione è stata affrontata nella giurisprudenza della Corte costituzionale italiana, della Corte europea dei diritti umani e della Corte di giustizia dell’Unione europea, evidenzia alcuni dei principali limiti del cosiddetto “dialogo” tra le corti

Dual modulation VCSEL-based sustainable transceiver for SSB DMT signals transmission

Single sideband DMT signal performance is analyzed in order to achieve high capacity and high spectral efficiency over 50-km uncompensated SMF. A sustainable implementation of the SSB DMT-based transceiver is proposed by means of a VCSEL source and a dual-modulator scheme, providing SSB without optical filtering and Hilbert transform implementation. Moreover, Kramers-Kronig detection, made possible by SSB, is studied at the receiver to effectively compensate the chromatic dispersion with direct detection

La resistenza delle "Altre" tra genere, cultura e diritto. Pillole cinematografiche.

Attraverso gli stimoli offerti da alcuni film, l’articolo mette in discussione la retorica corrente che assegna alle donne di culture non occidentali il ruolo di vittime passive di pratiche patriarcali ed oppressive o, a seconda dei casi, di complici nella loro perpetuazione. Concentrandosi sulle azioni di resistenza e di resilienza delle protagoniste, evidenzia come la tensione tra una pluralità di norme giuridiche di diversa natura e origine – statale, religiosa o consuetudinaria – possa creare spazi di lotta per l’emancipazione. Riflette inoltre criticamente sul possibile ruolo delle norme (inter)nazionali in materia di diritti umani nel supportare o innescare spirali di mutamento culturale, sociale e, talvolta, anche giuridico

Estereotipos, género y derecho. Apuntes para introducir una discusión

Esta breve reflexión introduce la discusión sobre el artículo de Ghidoni y Morondo titulado El papel de los estereotipos en las formas de la desigualdad compleja: algunos apuntes desde la teoría feminista del derecho antidiscriminatorio. En particular, después de señalar las aportaciones más interesantes e innovadoras de la propuesta de las autoras, se indicarán algunas cuestiones abiertas, a partir de las observaciones de las comentaristas Peroni y Ronconi, aunque sin limitarse a ellas. Sin embargo, preliminarmente, se ofrecerán unas breves consideraciones, por un lado, sobre la compleja relación entre derecho y estereotipos y, por otro lado, sobre las posibles aportaciones específicas de la perspectiva de género en el análisis de esta relación

Intra-datacenter links exploiting PCI express generation 4 interconnections

We demonstrate few-km reaches for PCIe-based optical fiber interconnections according to latency limitations, characterizing 16-Gb/s per lane Generation4 up to 10 km and confirming the Generation3 compliance of 2-km links employing suitable PCIe cards

Values in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights : A Legal-Philosophical Analysis with a Focus on Migrants’ Rights

This work provides a sketch of a legal-philosophical understanding of the normative content of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. In particular, after brefly reconstructing the genesis of the Charter and its historical and philosophical background, it focuses on how the values of dignity, freedom, equality and solidarity are conceived in the Charter and implemented in both Union law and the case law of the Court of Justice. Special attention is also devoted to the relationship between the European Union\u2019s and the Council of Europe\u2019s systems of protection of fundamental rights, with particular reference to the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights. This work stems from the research project "NoVaMigra \u2013 Norms and Values in the European Migration and Refugee Crisis", funded by the European Unionis. Accordingly, it mainly focuses on those rights which are, or could be, particularly significant in relation to migrants, asylum seekers and refugees. Furthermore, special attention is devoted to women\u2019s rights and gender equality

Effect of filtering in dense WDM metro networks adopting VCSEL-based multi-Tb/s transmitters

Long-wavelength vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) can represent an alternative solution for the development of transmitters with reduced cost, power consumption and footprint for very-high capacity metropolitan area systems. Multi-Tb/s transmitter modules with fine wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) granularity can be obtained adopting direct modulation (DM) with advanced modulation formats, such as discrete multitone (DMT), and aggregating multiple DM-VCSELs emitting in the C-band with WDM multiplexers in SOI chips. Due to numerous hops between nodes inside metropolitan area networks the effect of filtering can severely impact the transmission performance; we evaluate the transported capacity in function of nodes number taking into account the actual VCSEL parameters and simplified coherent detection

LTE transmission exploiting pulse width modulation in fibre optic links

Recently it has been demonstrated that pulse width modulation (PWM) can represent a viable solution for the analog optical fronthaul alternative to standard radio over fibre, which still avoids the bandwidth expansion of the digital fronthaul. The PWM encodes the analog samples at the transmitter onto the duration of the on/off keyed optical signal, splitting the sampling and quantization of the radio signal between remote radio units (RRUs) and baseband units (BBUs). In particular in this contribution we demonstrate the capabilities of optical PWM for the transport of LTE signals to support the centralized access network (C-RAN) fronthaul in fibre optic link up to 10-km of standard single mode fibre. The generation and analysis of the radio signals is provided by software modules compliant with the LTE standard which allowed to analyse performance results for the different LTE carriers, channels and services. The PWM optical signal connecting RRUs to BBUs is generated by either directly modulating a DFB laser or an externally seeded reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA). Both devices could be exploited inside a wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network (WDM PON) architecture where the various RRU-to-BBU links are pooled through virtual point-to-point connections at different wavelengths
