Guide numérique et mise en scène du territoire, entre médiation patrimoniale et stratégie de communication touristique

Depuis plusieurs annees la question de la rentabilite du patrimoine se pose pour les pouvoirs publics. Son attractivite touristique lui confere des lors une place dans l’analyse des politiques culturelles qui fait la part belle aux raisonnements economiques. Or le patrimoine se voit aujourd’hui mis en scene par diverses applications numeriques qui participent au developpement des territoires en valorisant une histoire locale. L’exemple d’un dispositif recemment produit par une collectivite territoriale permet d’analyser le brouillage induit par ces systemes de valorisation entre mediation patrimoniale et communication touristique. Parallelement, cette analyse permet de s’interroger sur l’influence d’une culture numerique sur ces objets mediateurs complexes.
Cloud Computing Resource Scheduling Method Research Based on Improved Genetic Algorithm

Resource scheduling is the key port of cloud computing resource management. One excellent method may enhance the efficiency of the whole cloud computing system, and effectively share resource in wide area. Genetic Algorithm has adaptability, global optimization ability and implicit parallelism, which is not in other methods. For the sake of scheduling effective resource to accomplish relevant task, improved genetic algorithm is adopted in cloud computing resource scheduling research. Finally, a simulation based on cloudsim is carried out, which proves the correctness and validity of the scheduling method mentioned in this paper.
Idiomatikotasunaren karakterizazio automatikoa: izena + aditza konbinazioak

The goal of this research is to develop and experimentally test different techniques for the automatic extraction of phraseological units (PUs) of noun+verb structure in Basque and for their characterization according to the idiomaticity level. Idiomaticity is considered the defining feature of the concept of phraseological unit (PU), ande we have measured its following components: institutionalization (statisti- cal idiosyncrasy), semantic non-compositionality, morphosyntactic fixedness and lexical fixedness. The results show that the standard cooccurence techniques are sig- nificantly ourtperformed by semantic measures, and, to a lower extent, by measures of morphosyntactic flexibility. The results of lexical flexibility are poorer than ex- pected. Finally, we obtain experimental evidence for several predictions of phraseo- logical theory.
The effect of ozone treatment on remote organ myocardial injury in an aortic ischemia-reperfusion model.

Background This study aims to investigate the effect of ozone on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury occurring after occlusion - reperfusion of infrarenal abdominal aorta in rats. Methods Thirty-two Wistar albino rats (weighing 200-250 g) were randomized into four equal groups. The control (sham) group underwent laparotomy and dissection of the infrarenal abdominal aorta without occlusion. Intraperitoneal ozone was applied for 10 days 1 mg/kg/day in the control+ozone group. Afterwards, control+ozone group underwent laparotomy and dissection of the infrarenal abdominal aorta without occlusion. Aortic ischemia-reperfusion and aortic ischemia-reperfusion+ozone groups underwent dissection of the infrarenal abdominal aorta, followed by achieving ischemia and reperfusion by cross-clamping the infrarenal abdominal aorta for 60 minutes and removing the cross-clamp for 60 minutes, respectively. The tissue levels of malondialdehyde and activity levels of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and myeloperoxidase were measured in the myocardial specimens. The tumor necrosis factor, interleukin-6 and troponin-I levels were measured in the plasma. A histopathological examination of the myocardial specimens was undertaken. Results Biochemical analysis showed that aortic ischemia-reperfusion significantly increased (p<0.05 vs. control) while ozone significantly decreased (p<0.05 vs. aortic ischemia-reperfusion) the myocardial tissue levels of superoxide dismutase and catalase and level of plasma troponin-I. Histologically, in the aortic ischemia-reperfusion group, myocardial disorganization, myofiber swelling and myofiber eosinophilia in the myocardial tissue samples were significantly increased compared to the control group (p<0.05 vs. control). However, histopathological changes in the aortic ischemia-reperfusion+ozone group decreased compared to the aortic ischemia-reperfusion group. Conclusion The results of this experimental study indicate that ozone attenuates myocardial injury and oxidative stress that develop after infrarenal aortic ischemia-reperfusion through three markers; (i) decreased tissue superoxide dismutase and catalase levels, (ii) d ecreased p lasma t roponin-I l evels, a nd (iii) reduced histopathological changes, albeit not statistically significant.

Localized search for high definition video completion

This paper presents a new approach for video completion of high-resolution video sequences. Current state-ofthe- art exemplar-based methods that use non-parametric patch sampling work well and provide good results for low-resolution video sequences. Unfortunately, because of memory consumption problems and long computation times, these methods handle only relatively low-resolution video sequences. This paper presents a video completion method that can handle much higher resolutions than previous ones. First, to address the problem of long computation times, a dual inpainting-sampling filling-order completion method is proposed. The quality of our results is then significantly improved by a second innovation introducing a coherence-based matches refinement that conducts intelligent and localized searches without relying on approximate searches or compressed data. Finally, with respect to the computation times and memory problems that prevent high-resolution video completion, the third innovation is a new localized search completion approach, which also uses uncompressed data and an exact search. Combined together, these three innovations make it possible to complete high-resolution video sequences, thus leading to a significant increase in resolution as compared to previous works.
Neurotypical interventions : a neurodiverse approach to school-based social communication support.

Working within a neurodiversity paradigm, this project will investigate potential differences in how autistic and neurotypical (NT) children interact with each other (A-A and NT-NT), and between-groups (A-NT). It will also consider whether autistic and NT individuals perceive these social interactions differently. Interactions will be coded while children recount a social scenario story, and jointly complete a spaghetti tower task along a diffusion chain. A diffusion chain design will be used as it allows cumulative effects of transmission, which are not always apparent in dyadic settings, to be examined. Ten NT and ten autistic adults will code the interactions to see if there are differences in how they are perceived depending on the autistic diagnosis. Autistic and NT children within the interactions will also be asked about their experiences of the interaction to examine synergies and differences from alternative perspectives. The information from these studies will inform the production of a resource for use in the classroom to support the social and emotional development of autistic and NT children. This resource will help autistic children develop an understanding of NT children’s thoughts and behaviours, and assist NT children in their understanding of these in autistic children.
Portugal, 1761: The Role of the Businessman José Francisco da Cruz (1717─1768) in the Development of Accounting(*)

The paper introduces Jose Francisco da Cruz (1717-1768), the first general treasurer of the Portuguese Royal Treasury (1761). A businessman from Lisbon, shareholder in the three largest monopolist trade companies of the time, this accounting technocrat made a decisive contribution for the transfer and spread of double entry bookkeeping (DEB) in eighteenth century Portugal. The article is intended as a study that explores which social and political agents were involved in the emergence and development of DEB in Portugal. The main contribution of the paper has to do with the systematisation of Jose Francisco da Cruz’s biographic features and professional traces as an attempt to place on Portuguese accounting history research agenda the study of individuals who were instrumental in initiating the process of accounting’s social recognition. The paper examines Jose Francisco da Cruz’s profile, his career and his relations with Portugal’s Chief Minister. More particularly, we outline the role of Jose Francisco da Cruz in the development and application of DEB in the Portuguese context: on the one hand, due to his managerial positions in the Royal Treasury and in two monopolist overseas trading companies concerning Colonial Brazil, Company of Grao-Para and Maranhao and Company of Pernambuco and Paraiba, organizations where DEB was compulsory by means of their statutes; and, on the other hand, due to his political contribution for the establishment of the Portuguese School of Commerce (1759) as Provedor [President] of the Board of Trade.
Getting a Grip: The PET Framework for Studying How Reader Emotions Influence Comprehension

ABSTRACT Comprehension models do not often account for the multifaceted and emotionally charged nature of reading in real-world settings. In addition, studies of how reader emotions influence comprehension often yield conflicting findings due to lack of specificity regarding the process, emotion, and task under investigation. The PET (Process, Emotion, Task) framework considers how reader emotions differentially influence comprehension as a function of the specific comprehension process, type of emotion, and task features. It offers testable hypotheses regarding the influence of reader emotion for levels in the tripartite theory, resonance, integration and validation, inferences, and coherence-based retrieval. It also considers how important interactions arise through text, reader, and activity variables. Therefore, the particular comprehension process, the specific emotion, and varying task features can lead to different predictions regarding the effects of emotion on comprehension processes. The PET framework provides organization to guide research and clarify understandings regarding how to support readers.
Immuno-tolerance in infectious disease: a chronic hepatitis model

Infectious diseases still affect many populations on earth. Diseases can be controlled by use of antibiotics, anti-viral drugs, anti-fungal drugs, and anti-parasite drugs in acute phase and prevented by vaccination. [1-4] However, some infections like hepatitis, tuberculosis, and a certain percentage of acute infections, develop into chronic infection and become difficult to treat. [5-7] Chronic infections do not respond to vaccine. [8] It appears that the human body develops tolerance to those invaders. Understanding the mechanism of tolerance will better prepare us to fight chronic infectious diseases. In addition, researchers have shown that human papillomavirus is a high risk factor for cervical carcinoma, [9] Epstein-Barr virus for B-cell lymphoproliferative diseases and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, [10] herpes ABSTRACT
A model of the human decision maker observing a dynamic system

In this report a model of the human observer and decision maker is described. A submodel of the human observer is formulated in linear estimation theoretical terms including the perception of the displayed information of a linear process and the central information processing stage. The subsequent decision process is described in terms of classical sequential decision theory by considering the hypothesis that an abnonnal condition has occurred by means of a generalized likelihood ratio test. On the basis of only two model parameters the model predicts the decision speed/accuracy trade-off and various attentional characteristics. A preliminary test of the model for single variable failure detection tasks resulted in a very good fit of the experimental results. In a formal validation program, a variety of multivariable failure detection tasks was investigated. The task variables were the number, the bandwidth and the mutual correlation of display variables and various failure characteristics. A very good overall agreement between the model and experimental results showed the predictive capability of the model. In addition the specific effect of almost all task variables was accurately predicted by the model.
Étude des phénols volatils dans les vins de Pinot noir en Bourgogne

La presence de Brettanomyces dans les vins rouges de Pinot noir n'est pas un phenomene rare. Dans le cadre de cette etude, ces levures sont mises en evidence dans environ 50% des vins en fin de fermentation malolactique non stabilises et dans environ 25% des vins en bouteilles. Ces levures sont directement responsables de la production de phenols volatils. Les quantites produites dependent directement des quantites d'acides phenols disponibles. En conditions pratiques, les teneurs en phenols volatils des vins de Pinot noir restent en general inferieures au seuil de detection (environ 500 μg/l). L'implantation, a titre experimental, de souches de Brettanomyces dans un vin de Pinot noir non stabilise est facile, meme pour un taux d'inoculation limite a quelques cellules par millilitre. Lorsque des acides phenols ont ete ajoutes au vin, la production de phenols volatils est considerable des que le niveau de population atteint 105 UFC/ml. La croissance et l'activite de Brettanomyces dans un vin de Pinot noir est fortement dependante du degre alcoolique et de la temperature. Le pH et la teneur en sucres residuels ont egalement un effet, mais plus limite. Une addition de SO 2 a la dose de 40 mg/l elimine une population de Brettanomyces inoculee dans un vin de Pinot noir, alors que la dose de 20 mg/l s'avere inefficace. La natamycine, non autorisee en oenologie, presente egalement une efficacite forte vis-a-vis de Brettanomyces.
Equating laboratories: modelling and analysis

Efficient world trade requires that manufacturers in one country have confidence that their product will meet specifications that are verified by purchasers in another country. But these trading partners rely upon different national metrology laboratories to calibrate their equipment, and there is detectable divergence between their measurement systems. This paper describes statistical methods that enable one to use data from a network of artifact comparisons to estimate the measurement functions at each participating laboratory. These methods cannot determine which laboratory is most accurate, but do allow one to predict the value that a given laboratory would obtain on an artifact from the value measured at another laboratory in the comparison network.
SUPERVISED AUTOMATIC LEARNING MODELS: A NEW PERSPECTIVE

Huge amounts of data are available in many disciplines of Science and Industry. In order to extract useful information from these data, a large number of apparently very different learning approaches have been created during the last decades. Each domain uses its own terminology (often incomprehensible to outsiders), even though all approaches basically attempt to solve the same generic learning tasks. The aim of this paper is to present a new perspective on the main existing automatic learning strategies, by providing a general framework to handle and unify many of the existing supervised learning models. The proposed taxonomy allows highlighting the similarity of some models whose original motivation comes from different fields, like engineering, statistics or mathematics. Common supervised models are classified into two main different groups: structured and unstructured models. Multidimensional models are shown as a composition of onedimensional models, using the latter as elementary building blocks. In order to clarify ideas, examples are provided.
Behavioral Counseling in Medicine: Strategies for Modifying At-risk Behavior

HDL system, including the expression of apoprotein genes, function of proteolytic enzymes, and receptormediated processes. These sections are sufficiently referenced and reasonably current. Several chapters deal with approaches in molecular biology that are assuming great importance in this exciting field. The epidemiologic evidence relating HDL cholesterol levels to coronary heart disease is not presented in detail, but a chapter describing the metabolic aspects of HDL in hypertriglyceridemic patients should be of interest to practicing physicians because low HDL cholesterol levels are frequently encountered in these patients. The closing section ("Diet/Drug Effects on HDL") contains too much material that is covered in previous chapters and only describes the effects of lipid-lowering drugs on HDL cholesterol levels. A discussion of the influence of other drugs, such as antihypertensive agents, might have been helpful here. High-Density Lipoproteins will probably be most useful to clinicians and researchers who do not have an extensive background in the field of lipoprotein metabolism.
Valoración nutricional de niños y adolescentes ingresados por anorexia nerviosa

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is the most prevalent of eating diorders in children and adolescents, and its treatment is long and complex, involving a multidisciplinary team. Nutritional rehabilitation and restoration of a healthy body weight is one of the central goals in the initial stages of inpatient treatment. However, current recommendations on initial energy requirements for this patients are inconsistent, with a clear lack of controlled studies, available scientific evidence and global consensus on the most effective and safe refeeding practices in hospitalized adolescents with AN. Conservative refeeding recommendations have been classically established in order to prevent the
Levobupivacaine hydrochloride and sufentanil have no antimicrobial effect at 25°C in vitro

Background and objectives: Levobupivacaine in combination with sufentanil may be used for labour or postoperative regional analgesia. The risk of bacterial growth within these contained solutions for several hours at room temperature is unknown. We investigated the in vitro antimicrobial effect of levobupivacaine and sufentanil against common micro‐organisms encountered during regional anaesthesia. Methods: Standardized suspensions of Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Escherichia coli were incubated for 1, 3, 6 and 24 h at 25°C, with saline (as control), sufentanil 0.5 or 0.75 &mgr;g mL−1, levobupivacaine hydrochloride 5.6 mg mL−1 and concentrations of 1.4, 2.8 and 5 mg mL−1 of levobupivacaine hydrochloride with sufentanil 0.5 &mgr;g mL−1. Colony counts were compared after 24 h incubation at 37°C. Results: No bacterial growth was observed on any bacterial strain for any solution tested throughout the experiment. Conclusions: Our results suggest that solutions of levobupivacaine combined with sufentanil may be used for 24 h at room temperature during regional anaesthesia with no risk of bacterial growth.

EFFECTS OF RETIGABINE, A KV7 CHANNEL ACTIVATOR, ON NOCICEPTIVE BEHAVIOUR AND BLADDER OVERACTIVITY INDUCED BY INTRAVESICAL CHEMICAL IRRITATION IN CONCIOUS RATS

Hypothesis / aims of study Voltage-gated K + 7 (Kv7) channels are known to reduce neural excitability and can inhibit nociceptive stimulation and transmission. Retigabine, a Kv7 selective activator, is a new class of antiepileptic drug used clinically and is an effective analgesic in animal models of chronic inflammatory and neuropathic pain (1). Kv7 channels are expressed in the rat urinary bladder, and its activator, retigabine, increases bladder capacity without concomitant reduction in blood pressure in anaesthetized rats with acetic acid–induced cystitis and increases bladder capacity in conscious rats with capsaicin-induced cystitis (2). These findings suggest that Kv7 channels may be a possible target for bladder pain syndrome. However, effects of Kv channels’ inhibition on nociceptive behaviour induced by intravesical irritant instillation have not been investigated. We investigated effects of retigabine on nociceptive behaviour induced by intravesical instillation of resiniferatoxin (RTX) or acrolein, a main metabolite of cyclophosphamide, in conscious rats. In the experiments with intravesical acrolien, we also investigated the effects of retigabine on cystometric parameters.
