Owing to gaps in the documentary evidence, the study of medieval instrumental music remains beset with uncertainties. Yet once a context can be established for a given manuscript, it is often possible to establish where the manuscript was probably used, what function it performed, and for which instrument or instruments it was most likely intended. No example highlights this point more clearly than the Faenza Codex (FaenBC 117; henceforth Faenza), an Italian manuscript containing the largest surviving collection of instrumental music from before 1450. This article re-examines the repertorial context of Faenza, challenging in particular the widely held view that the manuscript contains distinct “secular” and “sacred” repertoire. When combined with the results of a comprehensive investigation of voice-crossings in the manuscript, it is possible to demonstrate beyond all doubt that the Faenza intabulations were intended for solo organ.

New photographic images and digital restoration have finally permitted the integral restoration and transcription of several diminutions from the manuscript Faenza, Biblioteca Comunale Manfrediana 117, hitherto impossible because of illegible passages. Above all, it has been possible to restore two completely new pieces: a Kyrie Orbis factor (virtually complete) and part of its corresponding Gloria dominicalis (Vatican Edition XI). The two new pieces are here transcribed and published for the first time, along with the completion of the diminution of Jacopo da Bologna's madrigal Sotto l'impero with the aid of photographic material and virtual restoration.

The paper describes a study carried out for historical centre of Faenza (RA), developed by the Dept. of Architecture (UniCT) within an agreement with Faenza Municipality. The study aimed at elaborating guidelines for mitigation of buildings’ vulnerability in historical urban fabric to be used in ordinary government of the city as seismic prevention intervention.

ResumenLas resoluciones de jornadas excepcionales son una facultad conferida por ley al Director del Trabajo, según el artículo 38 inciso 6º y 7º del Código del ramo, las que deben ser resueltas previa solicitud de los interesados. Sin embargo, existen algunas faenas mineras que se sitúan por sobre los 3.000 m. de altitud, estableciendo esta condición por sí misma, un factor de riesgo bastante serio de estimar a la hora de resolver dichas peticiones, puesto que la exposición permanente al trabajo sobre esta altura geográfca no sólo acarrea múltiples consecuencias negativas para la salud de los trabajadores que las desarrollan, sino que colateralmente se ve afectada la pervivencia de su propio grupo familiar, por el distanciamiento que ellas implican. El presente estudio tiene como principal motivación establecer un análisis crítico de las señaladas resoluciones tanto desde una perspectiva legal como constitucional, ya que sin duda que el autorizar trabajos en la altura señalada con permanencias superior a los diez días continuos de labores, puede signifcar no sólo una vulneración a derechos tan básicos como lo son la integridad física y psíquica de los trabajadores que las ejecutan, sino que incluso resulta un verdadero atentado a la pervivencia de su propio grupo familiar, lo que a todas luces es contradictorio con lo que el Estado debe resguardar.Palabras clave: Facultad discrecional- jornada excepcional- altitud geográfca- vulneración.ResumoAs resoluções de jornadas excepcionais são uma faculdade concedida por lei ao Diretor do Trabalho, segundo o artigo 38.º, inciso 6° e 7° do Código do ramo, as quais devem ser resolvidas previa solicitude dos interessados. No entanto, existem algumas fainas mineiras que estão acima dos 3.000 m. de altitude, defnindo esta condição por si só, um fator de risco muito sério de estimar na hora de resolver ditos pedidos, posto que a exposiçãopermanente ao trabalho sobre esta altura geográfca não só traz muitas consequências negativas para a saúde dos trabalhadores que as desenvolvem, mas colateralmente afeta a sobrevivência de seu próprio grupo familiar, pelo distanciamento que elas implicam. O presente estudo tem como principal motivação estabelecer uma análise crítica das resoluções tanto desde uma perspectiva legal como constitucional, pois sem dúvida, que o trabalho sem autorizar na altura sinalada com permanência superior aos dez dias consecutivos de estadias de trabalho, pode signifcar não só uma vulneração aos direitos básicos como são a integridade física e mental dos trabalhadores que as executam, mas também resulta ser verdadeiro ataque à sobrevivência de seu própriogrupo familiar, o que se contradiz claramente com aquilo que o Estado deve proteger.Palavras-chave: Faculdade discricional, jornada excepcional, altitude geográfca, vulneração. AbstractResolutions of exceptional working days are a power conferred by law to the Director of Labor, according to article 38, paragraph 6 and 7 of the Labor Code, which must be resolved upon request of the interested parties. However, there are some mining works that are located above 3.000 m. of altitude, and this condition establishes by itself, a quite serious risk factor to account when solving such requests, since permanent exposure to working on such geographical height not only carries multiple negative consequences for the health of workers that develop them, but collaterally affects the survival of their own family group, because of the distance they imply. This study has as main motivation the establishment of a critical analysis of the aforementioned resolutions from both legal andconstitutional perspective, since, without a doubt, authorizing work at the indicated heights, with staying longer than ten continuous days of work may involve not only a violation of rights as basic as the physical and mental integrity of the workers who execute them, but it may even result in a true attack to the survival of their own family group, which is clearly contradictory to what the State must protect.Keywords: Discretionary faculty - exceptional day - geographical altitude - violation.

The structural characterization of clusters or nanoparticles is essential to rationalize their size and composition-dependent properties. As experiments alone could not provide complete picture of cluster structures, so independent theoretical investigations are needed to find out a detail description of the geometric arrangement and corresponding properties of the clusters. The potential energy surfaces (PES) are explored to find several minima with an ultimate goal of locating the global minima (GM) for the clusters. Optimization algorithms, such as genetic algorithm (GA), basin hopping method and its variants, self-consistent basin-to-deformed-basin mapping, heuristic algorithm combined with the surface and interior operators (HA-SIO), fast annealing evolutionary algorithm (FAEA), random tunneling algorithm (RTA), and dynamic lattice searching (DLS) have been developed to solve the geometrical isomers in pure elemental clusters. Various model or empirical potentials (EPs) as Lennard–Jones (LJ), Born–Mayer, Gupta, Sutton–Chen, and Murrell–Mottram potentials are used to describe the bonding in different type of clusters. Due to existence of a large number of homotops in nanoalloys, genetic algorithm, basin-hopping algorithm, modified adaptive immune optimization algorithm (AIOA), evolutionary algorithm (EA), kick method and Knowledge Led Master Code (KLMC) are also used. In this review the optimization algorithms, computational techniques and accuracy of results obtained by using these mechanisms for different types of clusters will be discussed.

abstract: This paper provides a comprehensive study of Italian liturgical organ works from the 15th to 17th centuries. This music was composed for the Catholic Mass, and it demonstrates the development of Italian keyboard style and the incorporation of new genres into the organ Mass, such as a Toccata before the Mass, music for the Offertory, and the Elevation Toccata. This often neglected corpus of music deserves greater scholarly attention. The Italian organ Mass begins with the Faenza Codex of c.1430, which contains the earliest surviving liturgical music for organ. Over a century would pass before Girolamo Cavazzoni published his three organ Masses in 1543: Mass IV (for feasts of apostles), Mass IX (for Marian feasts) and Mass XI (for typical Sundays of the year). The prevalence of publishing in Venice and the flourishing liturgical culture at San Marco led two notable organists, Andrea Gabrieli and Claudio Merulo, to publish their own Masses in 1563 and 1568. Both composers cultivated imitation and figurative lines which were often replete with ornamentation. Frescobaldi’s Fiori musicali, published in Venice in 1635, represents the pinnacle of the Italian organ Mass. Reflecting the type of music he performed liturgically at San Pietro in Rome, this publication includes several new genres: canzonas after the reading of the Epistle and after Communion; ricercars after the Credo; and toccatas to be played during the Elevation of the Host. Frescobaldi’s music shows unparalleled mastery of counterpoint and invention of figuration. His liturgical music casts a long shadow over the three composers who published organ Masses in the decade following Fiori musicali: Giovanni Salvatore, Fra Antonio Croci and Giovanni Battista Fasolo. This comprehensive look at Italian organ Masses from the 15th-17th centuries reveals the musical creativity inspired by the Catholic liturgy. Perhaps because of their practical use, these organ works are often neglected, mentioned merely as addenda to the other accomplishments of these composers. Hopefully insight into the contents of each organ Mass, along with the information about their style and aspects of performance practice, will make these musical gems more accessible to contemporary organists.
