Historians face many difficulties when plumbing the depths of the very dynamic and heterogenic population structures of pre-modern towns, especially because very few sources encompass the various layers of the urban population. In this paper I argue that it is necessary to collect and unlock larger amounts of data in databases, which in turn allow to compose multi-facetted biographies of townsp...

ABSTRACT: The detection of chaotic behaviors in commodities, stock markets and weather data is usually complicated by large noise perturbation inherent to the underlying system. It is well known, that predictions, from pure deterministic chaotic systems can be accurate mainly in the short term. Thus, it is important to be able to reconstruct in a robust way the attractor in which evolves the da...

This means that two different kinds of police agencies were created (the federal and local police), which were integrated by means of functional instruments (e.g., a common planning cycle, a shared educational programme, the same databases, etc.). The federal component of the system was designated as being responsible for supra-local and complex forms of public disorder and crime, under the sup...
