The volume collects the material produced for the exhibition 'The Sky in the Room' and a selection of scientific texts on the question of analogue continuity in digital transition. The contributions will be focused on verifying the operative method in teac ...
The possible scenarios at full power of the DTT (Divertor Test Tokamak) device with the standard single null (SN) and X divertor (XD) configurations have been analysed for the aspect of safely handling the power to be exhausted on the divertor targets. In ...
Digital video broadcasting (DVB-C2) and other modern communication standards increase diversity by means of a symbol-level interleaver that spans over several codewords. Deinterleaving at the receiver requires a large memory, which has a significant impact ...

We consider the joint estimation of multipath channels obtained with a set of receiving antennas and uniformly probed in the frequency domain. This scenario fits most of the modern outdoor communication protocols for mobile access (ETSI Std. 125 913) or di ...
Salamanders have captured the interest of biologists and roboticists for decades because of their ability to locomote in different environments and their resemblance to early representatives of tetrapods. In this article, we review biological and robotic s ...
This paper reports on the results of recent experiments performed on the JET tokamak on toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes (TAEs) with toroidal mode number (n) in the range up to |n|=7. The stability properties of these medium-nTAEs are investigated experimentally ...
MULTI2 is the block cipher used in the ISDB standard for scrambling digital multimedia content. MULTI2 is used in Japan to se- cure multimedia broadcasting, including recent applications like HDTV and mobile TV. It is the only cipher specified in the 2007 J ...
Among living tetrapods, salamanders are regarded as most closely resembling the first terrestrial vertebrates, and are therefore an interesting group in which the evolutionary changes in the locomotor behaviour from aquatic to terrestrial habitats can be i ...
The personal positioning and navigation became a very challenging topic in our dynamic time. The urban canyons and particularly indoors represent the most difficult areas for personal navigation problematic. Problems like disturbed satellite signals make t ...
The robustness of the delivery of digital compressed video streams has always been one of the main topic of the standardization bodies to assure the Quality of the Service (QoS). The MPEG standard which is nowadays the reference for digital television defi ...
Recently, there has been considerable discussion about new wireless technologies and standards able to achieve high data rates. Due to the recent advances of digital signal processing and Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) technologies, the initial obstac ...
