Cet ouvrage s’inscrit dans le cadre d’une histoire jeune et très contemporaine, celle d’Internet, du Web et des cultures numériques et explore leur fabrique dans les années 1990 en France. Cette recherche, à la croisée de l’histoire des médias, de l’histoire de l’innovation, et de l’histoire sociale et culturelle, reflète les apports d’une approche française de l’histoire d’Internet et du Web. Matérialité et infrastructures, temporalités et trajectoires, espaces et territoires traversent les cinq chapitres du livre. Ils apportent des arguments au choix d’une analyse nationale d’un phénomène pourtant transnational, en s’intéressant à l’attribution des noms de domaine et à la francophonie au sein de la Toile, à la transition entre la culture Minitel et celle du Web, ou encore à la place d’un État qui passe du volontarisme et du monopole des télécommunications à la dérégulation et aux imaginaires des autoroutes puis de la société de l’information. Explorant les pratiques, difficultés, tâtonnements de la période et le tournant grand public du Web, on croise au cours de cette navigation des informaticiens, des entrepreneurs, des politiques, des passionnés de science-fiction, des militants, autant d’acteurs qui se confrontent, débattent, co-construisent. Ils vous invitent à les suivre dans un chantier entre « cathédrale et bazar », pour reprendre Eric Raymond, dont l’exotisme mais aussi l’actualité des débats ne cessent de nous frapper. Bienvenue dans le Cyberespace des années 1990 ! [less ▲]

The initial setting of fresh concrete is mainly caused by the dissolution of cement grains and the precipitation of calcium-silicate-hydrates during cement hydration. Progressing hydration drives the transition from a dense suspension to a porous solid phase. Fresh mixture of self-compacting concrete (SCC) can be considered as a phase-changing multi-component material and can be described as a continuum at the macro scale, interacting with a set of transport-reaction-diffusion processes which in turn are driven by phenomena at the level of the microstructure. This contribution focuses on a predictive model for the setting of fresh SCC where the liquid-solid phase transition is captured by a phase-field variable using the Ginzburg-Landau type free energy function. Hydration-related chemical reactions together with heat and mass transfer are volume coupled with the mechanical behaviour and determined by the environmental conditions. The weak form of the predictive model is discretised using the finite element method and implemented with the FEniCS computational framework. [less ▲]

Depuis leur émergence au milieu des années 2000, les réseaux sociaux numériques comme Facebook ou Twitter favorisent et provoquent une accélération de la circulation des informations, les transformant en médias à part entière. Leurs moyens et leur infrastructure techniques autorisent leurs membres à participer non seulement à la diffusion mais également à la création et à la mise en forme de ces informations. Si la (relative) nouveauté des technologies et infrastructures utilisées par les réseaux sociaux numériques est bien documentée, celle, souvent implicitement considérée comme évidente, des pratiques des utilisateurs/acteurs – réseaux, collectifs ou communautés – de ces services dans les modes d’émergence et de circulation de l’information l’est moins. Ce dossier du Temps des médias souhaite mettre au centre de sa démarche une série de questionnements touchant à l’interaction entre (nouvelles) technologies, rythmes ou formats de l’information et (nouveaux) acteurs. Comment et sous quelles conditions l’émergence de nouvelles technologies ou la transformation de technologies existantes agissent-elles sur les rythmes de l’information et font-elles apparaître de nouveaux acteurs ? Pour répondre à ces questions, et si le cas des réseaux sociaux numériques est considéré comme emblématique de nouveaux modèles de production et de circulation des informations, ce dossier s’appuie sur des approches diachroniques en interrogeant d’autres médias, d’autres technologies, d’autres réseaux, d’autres communautés d’hier et aujourd’hui. Il s’agit ainsi de réintroduire une pluralité de temporalités dans l’étude des réseaux sociaux numériques. [less ▲]

In this paper, we investigate resource allocation and relay selection in a dual-hop orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based multi-user network where amplify-and-forward (AF) enabled relays facilitate simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) to the end-users. In this context, we address an optimization problem to maximize the end-users’ sum-rate subjected to transmit power and harvested energy constraints. Furthermore, the problem is formulated for both time-switching (TS) and power-splitting (PS) SWIPT schemes.We aim at optimizing the users’ SWIPT splitting factors as well as sub-carrier–destination assignment, sub-carrier pairing, and relay–destination coupling metrics. This kind of joint evaluation is combinatorial in nature with non-linear structure involving mixed-integer programming. In this vein, we propose a sub-optimal low complex sequential resource distribution (SRD) method to solve the aforementioned problem. The performance of the proposed SRD technique is compared with a semi-random resource allocation and relay selection approach. Simulation results reveal the benefits of the proposed design under several parameter values with various operating conditions to illustrate the efficiency of SWIPT schemes for the proposed techniques.

The reign of William IV represents a period concerned with questions of national identity, not only in a national context, but also in a global one. Periodicals of the time, such as the Athenaeum, present the co-existence of two related, but inherently opposite conceptions of literature and its functions: Goethe’s idea of Weltliteratur is contemporaneous to developments in the formation and consolidation of national literatures, which can be observed to co-exist even in the early nineteenth-century. World literature, as imagined by Goethe in the 1930s, represents a way of circumventing the inward-looking attitude of nationalism, and of prioritising fluidity and flexibility over stability. National literature, as practiced widely during the nineteenth century, represents a way of grounding national genius in literary texts, either by scrutinising only the works of authors of a specific nationality, or by comparing them in a transnational, intercultural perspective. This article investigates two series of articles published almost concurrently in the Athenaeum: ‘A Biographical and Critical History of the Literature of the last Fifty Years’, by Allan Cunningham in 1833, and ‘Literature of the Nineteenth Century’, by diverse authors between 1834 and 1838. This article highlights the co-existence between different authorial focalisations in historicising and historiographing literature, demonstrating the malleability, undecidability, and arbitrariness of dominant models of national literary identities. I argue that during the 1830s, the Athenaeum’s outlook is decidedly cosmopolitan and international as the contributors engage with European literature equally often as they do with British texts. They are also eager to stretch the readers’ awareness beyond the European context, embracing the wealth of ideas, styles, and perspectives as culturally enriching, but not exotic, erudition.

Context: Automatically generating test suites is intrinsically a multi-objective problem, as any of the testing targets (e.g, statements to execute or mutants to kill) is an objective on its own. Test suite generation has peculiarities that are quite different from other more regular optimisation problems. For example, given an existing test suite, one can add more tests to cover the remaining objectives. One would like the smallest number of small tests to cover as many objectives as possible, but that is a secondary goal compared to covering those targets in the first place. Furthermore, the amount of objectives in software testing can quickly become unmanageable, in the order of (tens/hundreds of) thousands, especially for system testing of industrial size systems. Objective: To overcome these issues, different techniques have been proposed, like for example the Whole Test Suite (WTS) approach and the Many-Objective Sorting Algorithm (MOSA). However, those techniques might not scale well to very large numbers of objectives and limited search budgets (a typical case in system testing). In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm, called Many Independent Objective (MIO) algorithm. This algorithm is designed and tailored based on the specific properties of test suite generation. Method: An empirical study was carried out for test suite generation on a series of artificial examples and seven RESTful API web services. The \evo system test generation tool was used, where MIO, MOSA, WTS and random search were compared. Results: The presented MIO algorithm resulted having the best overall performance, but was not the best on all problems. Conclusion: The novel presented MIO algorithm is a step forward in the automation of test suite generation for system testing. However, there are still properties of system testing that can be exploited to achieve even better results. [less ▲]

Formale Verfahren zur Sicherung von Qualität in sozialpädagogischen Organisationen stehen meist in einem engen Zusammenhang mit Fragen der Wirtschaftlichkeit. Ob sie auch in der pädagogischen Praxis nutzbringend zur Anwendung kommen und aus ihnen auch fachliche Innovationen hervorgehen, steht aber häufig in Zweifel. Das vorliegende Buch befasst sich mit dieser Frage aus der Perspektive der sozialpädagogischen Praxis. Vorgestellt wird eine empirische Studie, die mit Rekurs auf neoinstitutionalistische Theoriekonzepte untersucht, anhand welcher Strategien Fachkräfte in der Offenen Jugendarbeit die meist von staatlicher Seite definierten Qualitätskriterien und -regeln in ihrem Praxisalltag aufgreifen und ob bzw. inwiefern sie diese nach professionellen Anforderungen reinterpretieren und transformieren [less ▲]

The recent expansion of Islamic banks raises questions on its economic implications. The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of Islamic banking development on access to credit. We combine data from a unique hand-collected database that covers Islamic banks with firm-level data covering developing and emerging countries over the period of 2006 to 2009. We find that Islamic banking development has overall no impact on credit constraints, while banking development and conventional banking development alleviate obstacles to financing. However Islamic banking development exerts a positive impact on access to credit when conventional banking development is low. Hence we support the view that Islamic banking does not overall alleviate obstacles to financing, but it can act as substitute to conventional banking. [less ▲]

This paper concerns the analysis of the representations of ornamented caves in Jean Rouaud’s work. The study highlights, through strong intertextual relations, the continuum which links the cycles of Jean Rouaud’s creation through this theme, so that it is necessary to go beyond the fascination developed by the author about the prehistorical cave paintings. Then it’s suitable to question the recurrence of the pattern of the ornamented cave in Jean Rouaud’s texts. This work reveals a poetical thought of the writer about emergence of art in Préhistoires (2007); the pictorial art, hidden in the loins of the earth, replaces the tale. La femme promise (2009) also stages an ornamented cave, but this time, it is to think about humanity evolution concerning the beauty and the good. Last, La splendeur escamotée de frère Cheval ou le secret des grottes ornées (2018) traces the passage from a prehistorical cosmogony to author’s poetical metaphysics. [less ▲]
