Content / Work description: Surgery has changed significantly in recent years due to the introduction of advanced technologies, resulting in increased system complexity at the technical, human and organisational levels, which may lead to new error pathways. Robotic surgery, or robot-assisted surgery, is a specific type of Minimally Invasive Surgery that allows doctors to perform many types of complex procedures with high precision, flexibility and control. The tehsis aims at enhancing an existing simulation model suitable for reliability studies on the technical proficiency of a surgeon and the surgical team in MIS settings. The specific objective is to make use of the most advanced analytical models of human cognition to integrate cognitive workload factors into the existing simulation model. The expected result is to use the new simulator for assessing - the surgeon's learning curve in training sessions; - time and conditions for fatigue recovery. The pilot testing will be developed in collaboration with the Robotic Surgery Unit at Niguarda Hospital in Milan.

  • During a crisis, having clear, accurate and timely information is fundamental for effective response, in particular to support fast decisions and foster the collaboration between first responders, infrastructure operators and other stakeholders.
  • However, the information-sharing process is extremely difficult and there is evidence that poor communication is a major cause of unsuccessful crisis management.
  • The thesis aims at understanding how the information sharing process is executed, what are the main challenges and the current best practices.
  • In the context of an international collaboration project between Italy and Switzerland, the student will have the chance to assess the emergency management procedures and organisational set ups of different infrastructure operators as well as their decision making processes during crises; the student will contribute to defining the functional specifications and use cases of a new IT platform enabling multi-actor tactical information sharing

Content / Work description: The exponentially increasing connectivity among people and objects around the world is fundamentally transforming supply chains and we can expect this transformation to accelerate thanks to the advent of the fourth industrial revolution, known as Industry 4.0. Industry 4.0 revolves around the concept of cyber-physical systems, which represent the link of real objects with virtual objects via information networks to bring together digital, physical and biological systems. Cyber-physical systems communicate and co-operate with each other and with humans in real time via the Internet, and make decentralized decisions. The application of the concept of the fourth industrial revolution to supply chain operations has been named “Supply Chain 4.0”. Supply chains become smarter, more efficient, safer and more sustainable. This is leading to new supply chain models, which change the traditional approaches to efficiency and effectiveness in supply chain management. The objective of this work is to: i) investigate the state-of-the-art in the literature on the relationship between Supply Chain 4.0 and supply chain sustainability; ii) examine how Supply Chain 4.0 initiatives are approached by businesses and how organizations can seize emerging opportunities for better supply chain sustainability.

Content / Work description: In today’s competitive environment, the paradigm of sustainable development has become more and more significant also in logistics and supply chain management. Managers have been progressively considering not only purely economic aspects but also environmental concerns. After an initial emphasis mainly on transport processes, the perspective has widened and the attention has now shifted to warehousing, so much that sustainable warehouses have started to bring about increasing interest by both industry and academics. Low-emission building features and equipment, energy-efficient material handling equipment, digital innovation and green technologies are offering new opportunities for emission reduction as well as performance improvement. The objective of this work is twofold: (i) identifying and mapping the green warehousing solutions available and currently in place, and (ii) identify the assessment methods adopted for measuring the environmental impact of warehouses.

Content / Work description: Valida: dal 01-09-2019 al 01-09-2020 Docente: LUCA GASTALDI   Tema del lavoro di laurea: Implementazione di iniziative di Business Process Re-enginering per la digital transformation del Comune di Milano   Tipo di lavoro di laurea: Tesi / Tesina Numero di persone: 1 o 2   Tutor: Tommaso Dradi (Comune di Milano), Stefano Niccolini (Presidente di AIEA) e-mail: tommaso.dradi@comune.milano.it; stefano.niccolini@aiea.it Telefono: +39 339 4847472 Relatore: Luca Gastaldi e-mail: luca.gastaldi@polimi.it   Contenuto/Descrizione del lavoro: Le Pubbliche Amministrazioni (PA) sono spesso considerate lente, burocratiche e completamente incapaci di produrre innovazione. Come descritto da Mazzuccato (http://j.mp/Mazzucato_TED), questo non è vero. Basta pensare a internet, alla comunicazione cellulare e al GPS. Tutte queste fondamentali innovazioni sono state prodotte da PA coraggiose che, con uno spirito imprenditoriale, sono state capaci di lavorare efficacemente con il mondo delle imprese private, guidandole e offrendo loro incredibili opportunità. Il contesto pubblico offre incredibili opportunità per applicare le conoscenze sviluppate durante il percorso di ingegneria gestionale a realtà organizzativamente molto complesse, caratterizzate da importanti vincoli strutturali e con fortissime pressioni al fornire efficaci servizi digitali ai cittadini. Il Comune di Milano è una realtà di oltre 15.000 dipendenti e collaboratori, organizzati in 23 Direzioni che amministrano quotidianamente un vastissimo ventaglio di servizi che vanno dalla sicurezza urbana, alla cultura, ai servizi sociali, alle scuole, alla mobilità, all’ambiente, ai servizi civici, allo sport, all’urbanistica ecc. La Direzione Sistemi Informativi e Agenda Digitale è la struttura che ha il compito di operare la trasformazione digitale dei servizi comunali, oltre a gestire l’esercizio di tutti i sistemi informativi e delle reti del Comune di Milano. Obiettivo del lavoro è quello partecipare a due iniziative di Trasformazione Digitale promosse dal Comune di Milano, introducendo un modello di Governance IT basato sul framework COBIT2019. La prima iniziativa riguarda la realizzazione di un’applicazione mobile dedicata ai servizi per i cittadini di Milano. Per esempio, si vuole facilitare la gestione delle notifiche e dei pagamenti delle multe per infrazioni al codice della strada, evitando ai cittadini di doversi recare agli sportelli postali. La seconda iniziativa è la completa digitalizzazione dell’accesso ai servizi scolastici (nidi, scuole materne, scuole primarie, mense scolastiche, centri estivi ecc.), tramite un sistema informativo di recente introduzione che fornisce ai cittadini un canale web per la gestione dei profili dei propri figli, collegato a un sistema di backoffice che permette al Comune di strutturare i servizi, le graduatorie e tutti gli altri aspetti legati alla gestione del ciclo scolastico. Per entrambe le iniziative, l’attività di stage sarà volta ad analizzare gli attori e i sistemi coinvolti, identificando i processi esistenti (sia di business, sia tecnologici) e introducendo nuovi processi legati alle componenti di governance suggerite dal COBIT ed elaborando un sistema di KPI per misurare i benefici della digitalizzazione dei servizi e tenere sotto controllo gli aspetti di qualità e gestione del rischio. La tesi offre, da un lato, l’opportunità di approfondire un tema estremamente attuale, al centro dell’attenzione di imprese e istituzioni, nazionali e internazionali, e ancora non del tutto esplorato, quale quello della trasformazione digitale di realtà complesse. Dall’altro, il lavoro permette di costruirsi un solido bagaglio di conoscenze e strumenti analitici altamente qualificante e spendibile in svariati contesti lavorativi (tra cui aziende, società di consulenza, centri di ricerca e think tank), nazionali e internazionali. Il patrocinio di AIEA (Capito di Milano di ISACA) comporterà la presentazione delle attività di stage e dei risultati presso gli incontri ed i convegni che l’Associazione organizza a beneficio dei propri Soci. Questi sono tipicamente professionals di alto profilo, attivi nell’ambito dell’ICT in materia di Security, Cybersecurity, Governance, Risk, Assurance presso Multinazionali, Società di Consulenza, Pubblica Amministrazione, Assicurazioni, Banche, ecc.   Luogo svolgimento attività:

  • Dipartimento di Ingegneria Gestionale
  • Comune di Milano, Direzione Sistemi Informativi e Agenda Digitale
  Requisiti: Disponibilità immediata all’avvio dei lavori, forte interesse verso le tecnologie digitali e la mappatura e il miglioramento dei processi, spiccato senso civico.   Note: Il tesista si affiancherà all’Unità di Gestione Architettura d’Impresa della Direzione di Progetto Interoperabilità svolgendo il lavoro in sinergia con le attività dello stessa.   Compenso da parte del Comune (IPOTESI DA CONFERMARE): 400 euro / mese AIEA eroga una borsa di studio pari a 500 euro / mese per un periodo massimo di nove mesi. I due importi non si escludono ma si andranno a sommare.

Different ways to return products in B2c eCommerce

Type of project: Dissertation

Supervisor 1: Alessandro Perego

Date: 22 September 2019

Email: chiara.siragusa@polimi.it

Authors: 2

Tutor: Riccardo Mangiaracina

Contacts: Chiara Siragusa

Content / Work description: One of the main issues linked to B2c eCommerce logistics is the management of returns. They are highly significant especially in some industries, like the fashion one, where the return rate overcomes the 30%. Returns imply much effort for selling companies, which have to bear the costs associated to the courier – that needs to collect the items – and to some additional activities (e.g. reconditioning). There are many different ways in which customers may choose to return products (e.g. courier, postal services, in-shop, locker). The objective of this work is twofold: (i) identifying and mapping the different modes to return products purchased online and (ii) compare the identified return modes, in terms of costs, environmental impacts and, more in general, performances.
