The shrewd and sanguinary Monster who realized these violent murders called himself ＂Jack the Ripper＂, signing with his ＂trade name＂ the letters he sent to the Central News Agency and through the press he soon became a myth, the most famous ＂serial killer＂ of all time. As a matter of fact, his legend survived, and his evil figure still haunts the pages of books and---of course--the frames of many films; among the most famous From Hell （2001） by Albert and Allen Hughes, taken from the graphic novel of the same name by Moore and Campbell; Jack the Ripper （1976） by Jess Franco, with a disturbing Klaus Kinski, but also the TV movie directed by David Wickes in 1998 entitled Jack The Ripper; more obliquely, Jack appears also in The Lodger （1913） and Frenzy （1972） by Alfred Hitchcock. But can these movies be defined as true biopics of Jack？ Strangely enough, it seems, these biographies contribute to build the mythic ＂anonymity＂ of the Ripper, encouraging （and fascinating） fear and nightmares.展开更多

Since radio spectrum is limited, an optimal utilization of it is required, by adopting advanced spectrum management methods. The current transition from analogue to digital terrestrial television may act as a unique opportunity, in order to reallocate this valuable spectrum resource. After the transition, a part of the traditional analogue television spectrum bands will be completely released, allowing for the use of this spectrum by sophisticated wireless systems. Furthermore, digital terrestrial television interleaves spectrum bands in order to avoid possible interference between adjacent channels used by broadcasting stations, thus leaving spectrum holes exploited by novel wireless networks, namely unlicensed secondary systems. In this context, this article investigates business and marketing development issues, arising by utilizing released and interleaved television spectrum bands展开更多
