  • the arno Project challenges and experiences in a large scale industrial software Migration Project
    Conference on Software Maintenance and Reengineering, 2009
    Co-Authors: Werner Teppe
    Abstract:

    The following paper presents the experience gained from a large scale software Migration Project.It describes how the Migration strategy was selected and how the Project was planned. It emphasizes the importance of keeping the costs as low as possible. It then goes on to outline the methods and techniques used in the Migration with special emphasis on the Migration process. After that, it deals with the tools used in converting the code, migrating the data and reimplementing the job control. As with all Migration Projects, testing played a big role and consumed a significant part of the resources. Thus, the testing techniques and tools are given particular emphasis.The paper ends with a summary of the lessons learned from this Project and how they can be applied to other similar Projects.

  • cumulative causation market transition and eMigration from china
    American Journal of Sociology, 2008
    Co-Authors: Zai Liang, Miao David Chunyu, Guotu Zhuang, Wenzhen Ye
    Abstract:

    This article reports findings from a recent survey of international Migration from China’s Fujian Province to the United States. Using the ethnosurvey approach developed in the Mexican Migration Project, the authors conducted surveys in migrant‐sending communities in China as well as in destination communities in New York City. Hypotheses are derived from the international Migration literature and the market transition debate. The results are generally consistent with hypotheses derived from cumulative causation of Migration; however, geographical location creates some differences in Migration patterns to the United States. In China as in Mexico, the existence of Migration networks increases the propensity of Migration for others in the community. In contrast to the Mexican case, among Chinese immigrants, having a previously migrated household member increases the propensity of other household members to migrate only after the debt for previous Migration is paid off. In step with market transition theory,...

  • study like italians do as a Migration Project field research in togo
    Ethnography and Education, 2017
    Co-Authors: Adriano Zamperini, Alberto Mascena
    Abstract:

    ABSTRACTIn this article we present ethnographic research conducted on students taking an Italian language and culture course in Lome, the capital of Togo. We interacted with the students and participated in their school days. In addition to the interviews, we turned to Focus Groups in order to investigate certain crucial issues. Our research reinforces the idea that Migration is a strategy of living, even before surviving, thanks to which many students from West Africa can achieve their desire to learn and explore the world and gain access to higher quality education. We noted the importance of the preparatory phase, the process by which students acquire different skills needed to deal with the Migration experience. ‘Study like Italians do’ also anticipates the scenario of the Migration in the host country, which influences the expectations and behaviour that students will implement once they arrive in Italy.
