DLT-based Data Mules for Smart Territories

Many services that are taken for granted in smart cities are not even remotely available in dislocated areas yet, due to the lack of or too costly wide area network connectivity. With the aim to offer a practical and secure way to transport data and allow for communications in such constrained scenarios, we focus on the problem of incentivizing to data mules, i.e. devices dedicated to enable the data transfer even in the absence of the Internet. Our solution combines the use of several distri...

Note introduttive allo studio degli statuti comunali di Anticoli in Campanea, odierna Fiuggi, del 1410

Note preliminari allo studio e all'edizione critica dello statuto tardo medievale (1410) del castello ernico di Anticoli in Campagna, odierna Fiuggi (FR).

La ricostruzione prende avvio dal 1880, epoca del loro rinvenimento e della loro prima descrizione ad opera di Giovanni Battista de Rossi.
