This paper reflects on four decades of research (via ethnographic returning) to explore the social transformations in travel and communication technologies that have impacted lived experiences, consequently theoretical conceptualization, migrant visits. A comparison migration waves between Italy Australia reveals both continuities visiting experience as deeply relational practices facilitate a ...

WebRTC is a new technology allowing web players to offer communication services to their customers. It optimizes the communications by privileging peer-to-peer connections. However, in restrictive networks, media relays (TURN servers) are mandatory for establishing the call. The location and behavior of these media relays can have an undesirable influence on the quality of real-time communicati...

Threshold biasing of a Gaussian random field gives a linear amplification of the reduced two point correlation function at large distances. We show that for standard cosmological models this does not translate into a linear amplification of the power spectrum (PS) at small k. For standard CDM type models this means that the “turn-over” at small k of the original PS disappears in the PS of the b...

The "information age" is reliant upon the information skill-base of people and the storage and access of complete data. Staff turn-over and "down-sizing" as well as the rate of organisational change places increased pressure on the designers of corporate information systems to keep up with the organizational demands. Especially relevant are the "soft" aspects of the corporate information needs ...

We study numerically the so-called “turn-over scenario” for rotating magnetic white dwarfs and neutron stars. According to this scenario, the magnetic symmetry axis of the model inclines at a gradually increasing angle (the so-called “turn-over angle”) relative to the invariant angular momentum axis. Consequently, the model becomes “perpendicular rotator” (i.e., its turn-over angle becomes almo...
