Jaarlijks ronden vele studenten hun IT-auditopleiding af met een afstudeerscriptie. Zou het niet mooi zijn als deze studenten de hierbij opgedane kennis delen met de beroepsbeoefenaren en hiermee een bijdrage leveren aan de ontwikkeling van de IT-auditberoepspraktijk? Om deze reden presenteert de opleiding IT-audit, Compliance and Advisory (ITACA) van de Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam de dertien meest relevante afstudeerscripties uit het studiejaar 2017/2018 van deze opleiding.

The international scientific community believes unequivocally that, at the origin of the climate change, there are anthropic factors mainly linked to the construction sector and to the disproportionate use of fossil energy sources. The selection of building materials plays a key role in the reduction of energy consumption, especially in the Mediterranean area, where the internal overeating risk is high if the solar radiation is not controlled and the free supply of internal heat is poorly managed. Traditionally, in the Italian context, the slab-on-ground floor is made in concrete or more rarely in stone. However, it is usually recommended to minimize the use of concrete as it has a strong environmental impact, reinforced concrete is still the most recommended solution for foundations, both for regulatory and practical reasons. The present study proposes a methodology for the design of high efficiency slab-on-ground floor for warm climate through optimization code performed with the software modeFRONTIER. Starting from the traditional floor structures, the multi-objective methodology stands as an advanced step for the identification of new configurations, favoring the management of many variables, such as thermal, environmental and economic aspects. The results are characterized by high presence of local and eco-friendly materials and reduced costs. At the end, this work demonstrates that it is possible to obtain high performance solutions with also very few numbers of layers.

In this study, we examine three social housing case studies in the Campania region. The projects have been made with the aspiration to be sustainable residential neighborhoods. The Region, indeed, proposed a pilot program to test an innovative model of the design and construction of social housing. The topic of this program is the spreading of urban quality and construction, the culture energy conservation, the reduction of the construction impact activities on the environment and the offering to lower classes proper housing. This program was created to implement new guidelines referring to ITACA protocol. The cases involve three medium-small municipalities: one in the province of Avellino-Mirabella Eclano, one in the province of Salerno - Castelnuovo Cilento and the last one in the province of Naples - Nola. The first case was concluded, the second one is almost completed and the last one is still in progress. These are three different cases by geographical location and contextual conditions. Mirabella Eclano has a land area of 34 sq km and a population of just 8000 inh., with a population density of 230 inh. per sq km; Castelnuovo Cilento, however, has an area of only 18 sq km and a population of about 2,500 inh. Nola, finally, is a city of the province of Naples, with a land area of 39 sq km and about 33,000 inh., located in the eastern part of the plain to the north of Vesuvio. In all three cases, however, despite the obvious differences, the projects presented have tried to entrust the leadership to public housing in research and dissemination of new sustainable urban models. The paper will describe in detail all the sustainable urban and building elements.

Aquesta tesi pretén demostrar que l’Odissea constitueix un dels eixos vertebradors del cinema modern, ja que actua com a signe des del qual s’estableix un paradigma interpretatiu de la pròpia modernitat cinematogràfica i com a focus de noves formes artístiques i nous continguts temàtics. El film que ho fa possible és Le Mépris (1963) de Jean-Luc Godard. Per fonamentar-ho, s’hi han investigat dos aspectes clau: la influència de Roberto Rossellini i l’evolució del cinema italià de la mà d’Antonioni i Fellini, i el diàleg establert entre l’obra de Godard i la novel•la de la qual parteix, Il disprezzo (1954) d’Alberto Moravia. Aquestes dues línies d’anàlisi reconeixen com a comú denominador el tractament temàtic del sentiment del menyspreu, esdevingut símbol de l’evolució de la parella en la segona meitat del segle XX i de la metàfora del buit i de la crisi de valors de l’època. This thesis aims to demonstrate that the Odyssey is one of the backbones of modern cinema as it acts as a sign from which it establishes an interpretative paradigm of modern cinema itself and as a source of new artistic forms and new thematic content. The film that makes this possible is Le Mépris (1963) by Jean-Luc Godard. In support of this, two key aspects were investigated: the influence of Roberto Rossellini and the evolution of Italian cinema through directors Fellini and Antonioni, and the dialogue established between Godard's work and the novel from where it starts, Il disprezzo (1954) by Alberto Moravia. These two lines of analysis have one common denominator: The way in which the feeling of contempt is treated, by becoming a symbol of the evolution of couples during the second half of the twentieth century and also of the metaphor of the void and of the crisis of moral values from that time period.

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) due to C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency (C1-INH-HAE) is a rare disease, with a reported prevalence of about 1 : 50 000. C1-INH-HAE causes disabling symptoms, which may be life-threatening if swelling affects upper airways. Diagnostic procedures are now well established and the role of bradykinin as the main mediator of plasma outflow eliciting angioedema formation has been clearly elucidated.Increased understanding of the pathogenesis of C1-INH-HAE allowed in recent years the development of new drugs targeted to inhibit bradykinin synthesis (Ecallantide) or activity (Icatibant). At the same time, a recombinant C1-INH concentrate (Ruconest) was produced from the milk of transgenic rabbits and two plasma-derived C1-INHs (Berinert, Cinryze) underwent controlled trials to obtain marketing authorization. In 2012, an Italian network for C1-INH-HAE (ITACA) was established by physicians of 17 HAE reference centres to collect data from Italian patients and to homogenize and improve the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to the disease.Although there is a widespread agreement on therapeutic goals and treatment of C1-INH-HAE acute attacks, different approaches to prophylaxis are still present among HAE experts. The clinical experience of ITACA on a large population of C1-INH-HAE patients followed for several years may help in identifying the most effective strategies for the management of the disease.

This thesis focuses on the theoretical conception of the Balance of Payment, its method of adjustment and stress the development of the Czech republic's Balance of Payment in period 2000 -- 2010 via analytical-descriptive approach. It defines its basic terms practical relations within framework of the horizontal and vertical outlook. Thesis's Attention is spread out between status and flow quantity. Thesis is also consist of three boxes that contain a short profile of intertemporal approach to the Common Account, sustainability of investment position and excursion to the essential theories of foreign currency exchange rate that is related to the Balance of payment tight. The end is dedicated to the "traditional" indicators of external equilibrium of the Czech republic in pre-monetary crisis era and in the present.

Odiseo llegó a Itaca en el texto de Homero y también en la Odisea moderna. En realidad, ya había llegado ya cuando se inicia el nuevo poema. Itaca conserva la simbología que tuvo en el texto homérico, pero adquiere un nuevo rol. En la isla, Odiseo reafirma su identidad: es el mismo héroe que participó en la guerra de Troya y después luchó contra adversidades y tentaciones durante diez años, sin perder la voluntad de retornar a la tierra y al hogar. Reconoce su territorio, sepulta a su padre, casa a su hijo. Pero, además, ahora es el punto de partida. Desde ella sale Odiseo en el nuevo viaje, acaso más largo que el antiguo y sin regreso. La isla amada sigue siendo la isla amada. Amándola, la deja el antiguo héroe. Y en su larguísima travesía hacia la muerte en los hielos antarticos, la recuerda no pocas veces. Odysseus reaches Ithaca in the Homeric text and also in the modern Odyssey. He had really reached there when the new poem begins. Ithaca preserves the symbology which had in the Homeric text, but it acquires a new role. In the island, Odysseus reaffirms his identity: he is the same hero who participated in theTrojan war, fought against adversities and temptation for ten years, without losing the will to return to his land and home. He recognizes his territory, buries his father and accompanies his son in the latter s wedding. Now it is also the point of departure: Odysseus sails from it in a new voyage, perhaps longer than the previous one and with no return. The beloved island remains as such. Loving it, the hero abandons it. In his very long voyage to death on he Antarctic ices he often remembers it.

Two assemblies in Ithaca are described in the Odyssey. The first is the one that summoned by Telemachus, through counsel of the goddess Athena. In it he called for the suitors to abandon their home and asked to give a boat so he could go out in search of information about his father, Odysseus. The second is the one that the relatives of the suitors gathered to call for revenge. In this article are discussed the role of these assemblies as organizational forms of society Ithaca figured in the poem. We discuss mainly as the ideas expressed by the words dēmion (public) and ídion (private) are articulate in the text and to what extent the space represented by the agora (assembly) relates to the organization models of the Greek polis. Na Odisseia são descritas duas assembleias em Ítaca. A primeira é a que foi convocada por Telêmaco, por conselho da deusa Atena. Nela, ele clamou para que os pretendentes abandonassem sua casa e solicitou que lhe fosse fornecido um barco para que pudesse sair em busca de informações sobre seu pai, Odisseu. A segunda é a que os parentes dos pretendentes se reuniram para clamar por vingança contra Odisseu. Neste artigo discute-se o papel dessas duas assembleias como instâncias organizativas da sociedade de Ítaca figurada no poema. Será abordado, principalmente, como nelas se articulam as ideias expressas pelos vocábulos dḗmion (público) e ídion (privado, particular) e, em que medida, o espaço representado pela agorá (assembleia) relaciona-se com os modelos organizativos da pólis grega.
