In 1977 Italy's popular revolt reached its peak, when youth demanded a future rejecting bosses, borders, and compromise. The Year of Living Dangerously retells the movement's origins, ideals, visual culture, and ongoing debates surrounding its legacy. The book's second half features an extensive anthology of crucial texts, many translated into English for the first time, accompanied by critical commentary. These materials illuminate the richness and complexity of this extraordinary chapter in Italian history, capturing a defiant, joyful movement that briefly threatened to upend the political establishment's consensus around sacrifice and economic discipline.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings papers from the 8th International Workshop on Performance Modeling, Benchmarking and Simulation of High Performance Computing Systems, PMBS 2017, held in Denver, Colorado, USA, in November 2017. The 10 full papers and 3 short papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 36 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: performance evaluation and analysis; performance modeling and simulation; and short papers.

The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the emergence, political economy and foreign relations of Japan’s relations with the Middle East, with an emphasis on its relations with the states in the Gulf Region.
