A product quadrature rule, based on the filtered de la Vallée Poussin polynomial approximation, is proposed for evaluating the finite weighted Hilbert transform in [-1,1]. Convergence results are stated in weighted uniform norm for functions belonging to suitable Besov type subspaces. Several numerical tests are provided, also comparing the rule with other formulas known in literature.

Wireless sensor networks involve a large area of real-world contexts, such as national security, military and environmental control applications, traffic monitoring, among others. These applications generally consider the use of a large number of low-cost sensing devices to monitor the activities occurring in a certain set of target locations. One of the most important issue that is considered in this context is maximizing network lifetime, that is the amount of time in which this monitoring activity can be performed by opportunely switching the sensors from active to sleep mode.

This paper provides a unified point of view on fractional perimeters and Riesz potentials. Denoting byH? - for ? 2 .0; 1/ - the ?-fractional perimeter and by J ? - for ? 2 .(d; 0)- the ?-Riesz energies acting on characteristic functions, we prove that both functionals can be seen as limits of renormalized self-attractive energies as well as limits of repulsive interactions between a set and its complement. We also show that the functionals H? and J ? , up to a suitable additive renormalization diverging when ? ? 0, belong to a continuous one-parameter family of functionals, which for ?

Wireless sensor networks involve many different real-world contexts, such as monitoring and control tasks for traffic, surveillance, military and environmental applications, among others. Usually, these applications consider the use of a large number of low-cost sensing devices to monitor the activities occurring in a certain set of target locations.

Poisson shot noise processes are natural generalizations of compound Poisson processes that have been widely applied in insurance, neuroscience, seismology, computer science and epidemiology. In this paper we study sharp deviations, fluctuations and the stable probability approximation of Poisson shot noise processes. Our achievements extend, improve and complement existing results in the literature. We apply the theoretical results to Poisson cluster point processes, including generalized linear Hawkes processes, and risk processes with delayed claims. Many examples are discussed in detail.

Age of infection epidemic models [1, 3], based on non-linear integro-dierential equations, naturally describe the evolution of diseases whose infectivity depends on the time since becoming infected. Here we consider a multi-group age of infection model [2] and we extend the investigations in [4], [5] and [6] to provide numerical solutions that retain the main properties of the continuous system. In particular, we use Direct Quadrature methods and prove that the numerical solution is positive and bounded.

Cow's milk allergy (CMA) is a common condition in the pediatric population. CMA can induce a diverse range of symptoms of variable intensity. It occurs mainly in the first year of life, and if the child is not breastfed, hypoallergenic formula is the dietary treatment. Extensively hydrolyzed cow's milk formulas (eHF) with documented hypo-allergenicity can be recommended as the first choice, while amino acid-based formulas (AAF) are recommended for patients with more severe symptoms.

We compute the Euler equations of a functional useful for simultaneous video inpainting and motion estimation, which was obtained in [17] as the relaxation of a modified version of the functional proposed in [16]. The functional is defined on vectorial functions of bounded variations, therefore we also get the Euler equations holding on the singular sets of minimizers, highlighting in particular the conditions on the jump sets.

In the near future, Exascale systems will need to bridge three technology gaps to achieve high performance while remaining under tight power constraints: energy efficiency and thermal control; extreme computation efficiency via HW acceleration and new arithmetic; methods and tools for seamless integration of reconfigurable accelerators in heterogeneous HPC multi-node platforms. TEXTAROSSA addresses these gaps through a co-design approach to heterogeneous HPC solutions, supported by the integration and extension of HW and SW IPs, programming models, and tools derived from European research.

In this article, we face the problem of ensuring reliability of a wireless sensor network which is monitoring a given set of points of interest while maximizing its lifetime (i.e., the amount of time over which the monitoring activity can be performed). The two objectives are contrasting. Indeed, the traditional approach to achieve reliability involves providing redundant coverage, which, however, drastically reduces the network lifetime. We propose an alternative strategy where sensors adapt their sensing radii in response to failures to restore feasibility only when needed.
