Archéodémographie des sociétés protohistoriques du Sud-Est de la France

Iron Age, settlement and demography : these are three anchor points of a PhD defended in 2008. The objective of such a quantitative estimation of the protohistoric populations of South-eastern France, was not only to provide new information, but also an original framework to analyse the evolution of these societies. Indeed, these new data allow us to handle tools and concepts usually used in social science and human geography. When compared to current hypothesis on Iron Age in Mediterranean Gaul, these results enable us to discuss contribution of usual knowledge from archaeological data or historical sources : sometimes by giving support to some ideas, sometimes by disproving others ; but above all, by suggesting new theories to explore. Especially, such an original parameter allows us to consider with a new slant the development of settlement network since the beginning of relations with Mediterranean merchants. And even to assess population reactivity in view of socioeconomic and historic changes.
HARMONIZING ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL NEEDS VIA A CONSENSUS APPROACH: THE WISCONSIN COPPER MINING CASE*

In an article in this Review ("Pragmatism, Utilitarianism and the Quest for a Discipline of Political Judgment"), Charles W. Anderson traces two philosophical roots to political judgment. One is utilitarian? ism, which focuses on outcomes; it has become the principal methodol? ogy of econometricians and theoretical economists. The other is prag? matism, which focuses on process; it has become the principal methodology of both institutional economics and political science and is becoming increasingly dominant in economic development. This is a case study of a pragmatically rooted effort to harmonize an economic project with environmental protection.
Why firms listed on an unregulated financial market comply voluntarily with IFRS: An empirical analysis with French data

This study examines the determinants of voluntary adoption of IFRS by French companies listed on an unregulated financial market. These firms can choose IFRS or the French accounting standards to present their accounts. We analyze the annual reports of 85 French firms listed in 2010 on an unregulated financial market: Alternext. The results reveal that size is an important determinant of the voluntary adoption of IFRS, showing a positive correlation. The percentage of assets in place is also a significant factor: firms with a higher percentage are protected by heavy barriers to entry and they thus voluntarily adopt IFRS. Industry sector shows a negative and significant relationship, as it explains the decision not to adopt IFRS. The following variables are not significant: leverage, internationality, profitability, type of auditor, and ownership concentration. Our findings suggest that without the intervention of regulatory bodies, companies listed on an unregulated financial market will continue to opt for local accounting standards, thereby maintaining the status quo.
Potentials of Social Innovation in Marginalised Rural Areas – An overview of the SIMRA project

European institutions have identified both rural and ‘marginal’ areas in the context of rural development policy and cohesion policy. Rural areas have been defined by Eurostat, using population density (Eurostat, n.d.). A number of types of ‘marginal’ areas have been mapped, for instance in the ESPON GEOSPECS project (University of Geneva et al. 2012), which used defining criteria relating to topography, accessibility and population potential. The project ‘Social Innovation in Marginalised Rural Areas’ (SIMRA), running since April 2016 and funded by the EU Horizon 2020 Programme, builds on such previous work with particular attention being paid to countries of Eastern and Southern Mediterranean as well as the rest of Europe which also includes mountainous areas. First intermediate results of the methodological work to analyse Social Innovation will be presented, both defining ‘marginalised rural areas’ according to consistent criteria, and presenting their characteristics according to criteria – e.g. demographic, economic, land use, transport – that are relevant for social innovation in such areas. Challenges discussed include those of undertaking analysis at such a wide regional scale, with particular reference to issues of appropriateness of scale and spatial resolution.
The hydrogen atom transfer reactivity of a porphyrinoid cobalt superoxide complex.

The H-atom transfer (HAT) reactivity of a corrolazine cobalt superoxide with weak O-H and N-H substrates has been demonstrated. Kinetic analysis shows relatively fast rates of HAT with diphenylhydrazine (DPH). A kinetic isotope effect (KIE) and Eyring activation parameters are consistent with an HAT mechanism.
The King’s Toilet: Cruising Literary History in Reinaldo Arenas’ Before Night Falls

This chapter revisits Reinaldo Arenas’s Antes que anochezca on the 20th anniversary of its publication in order show why boilerplate political monikers do not stick to this polemical autobiography. Lima proposes that Arenas’ autobiography has been too narrowly subjected to left and right readerly expectations that have failed to see the text as Arenas’ attempt to fashion his own literary history in relation to the Cuban and the Latin American literature canon. This chapter, further, argues that cruising and “the arts of cruising” for Arenas conforms to a broader history of anti-authoritarian “libertinaje mental” initially posited by Jorge Manach.
Physics and Finance: S-Terms and Modern Finance as a Topic for Science Studies:

This article argues that modern finance should be an important object of attention. Particularly worthy of study are three demarcations: the changing disciplinary boundary of economics, the distinction between private and public knowledge, and the legal and cultural demarcation between legitimate trading and gambling. The balance between what Barnes calls N-type (natural kind) and S-type (social kind) terms in finance is different from, for example, that in physics, but that is no criticism of finance theory: the activities of those who disbelieve finance theory’s efficient market hypothesis probably make the hypothesis more true. The case of Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing theory is drawn on to argue that the loops of self-reference intrinsic to S-terms seem predominantly performative: they increase the truth of finance theory’s typical assumptions. S-loops in the financial markets do not always promote stability, however, as is shown here by a case study of the fate of the hedge fund, Long-Term Capi...
Microscopic model for the boson integer quantum Hall effect

In two dimensions strongly interacting bosons in a magnetic field can form an integer quantum Hall state. This state has a bulk gap, no fractional charges or topological order in the bulk, but nevertheless quantized Hall transport and symmetry-protected edge excitations. Here we study a simple microscopic model for such a state in a system of two-component bosons in a strong orbital magnetic field. We show through exact-diagonalization calculations that the model supports the boson integer quantum Hall ground state in a range of parameters.
Wisdom from the fly.

Arguably, almost all research in Drosophila can be considered basic research, yet many of the most essential and fundamental concepts of human genetics were first decoded in the fly. Although the fly genome, which is organized into only four chromosomes, is approximately one-twentieth the size of the human genome, it contains roughly the same number of genes, and up to 75% of human disease-related genes have Drosophila homologues . The fly was prized for its simplicity and utility even before such compelling homology with humans was apparent. Since Thomas Hunt Morgan began his seminal experiments over a century ago (Table 1), the Drosophila system has revealed countless key mechanisms by which cells function, including the factors that maintain chromatin and the signaling pathways that control cell fate determination and organism development. More recently, the fly has emerged as a critical neurobiological tool and disease model for a range of genetic disorders. In this review, we present a brief retrospective of Drosophila as an indispensable genetic system and discuss some of the many contributions, past and present, of this facile system to human genetics.
New Foundations for Rewriting Logic

This paper presents an abstract treatment of the foundations of rewriting logic, generalising in three ways: an arbitrary 2-category plays the role of the specific 2-category Cat; the foundations are rendered fully independent of the underlying equational logic; and the semantics covers non-conventional sentences. Despite the high level of abstraction a number of properties of interest to Computing Science are seen to hold including the existence of initial models, liberality along theory morphisms, exactness, and a completeness theorem for a very abstract notion of deduction.
Modifications of interfacial proteins in oil-in-water emulsions prior to and during lipid oxidation.

Lipid oxidation is a major cause for the degradation of biological systems and foods, but the intricate relationship between lipid oxidation and protein modifications in these complex multiphase systems remains unclear. The objective of this work was to have a spatial and temporal insight of the modifications undergone by the interfacial or the unadsorbed proteins in oil-in-water emulsions during lipid oxidation. Tryptophan fluorescence and oxygen uptake were monitored simultaneously during incubation in different conditions of protein-stabilized oil-in-water emulsions. Kinetic parameters demonstrated that protein modifications, highlighted by decrease of protein fluorescence, occurred as an early event in the sequence of the reactions. They concerned more specifically the proteins adsorbed at the oil/water interface. The reactions led in a latter stage to protein aggregation, carbonylation, and loss of protein solubility.
Automatic Service Composition via Simulation

In this paper we study the issue of service composition, for services that export a representation of their behavior in the form of a finite deterministic transition system. In particular, given a specification of the target service requested by the client as a finite deterministic transition system, the problem we face is how we can exploit the computations of the available services for realizing the computations of the target service. While ways to tackle such a problem are known, in this paper we present a new technique that is based on the notion of simulation, which is still optimal from the computational complexity point. Notably, such a technique, opens up the possibility of devising composition in a "just-in-time" fashion. Indeed, we show that, by exploiting simulation, it is actually possible to implicitly compute all possible compositions at once, and delay the choice of the actual composition to run-time.
Outcomes of new museology or how a novelist became a museologist

The paper covers the problem of museology as a scientific discipline and its relation to the concept of 'new museology'. Starting cases are Museum of Innocence as a model of contemporary museum practice (opened in Istanbul in 2012), and the research of the Museums Association of Great Britain on the public opinion about museums (from 2013). In this respect, research problem described as 'modern cultural fictions' arises. By 'modern cultural fictions' we recognize imaginative content with cultural value in contemporary world, which can be related with museums or novels. In methodological terms 'modern cultural fictions' are heritage of new museology. Thus, the goal of the paper is an interpretation this specific contribution of new museology to museology as a scientific discipline.
Ta₂O5 / Al / SiO₂ / P-Si MIS型 太陽電池의 製作과 特性

The fabrication procedure and characteristics of Ta₂O_5/Al/SiO₂/p-Si MIS solar cells forming a fine grating pattern of aluminum evaporated on to p-type silicon crystal are discribed. The proper temperature for oxide growing of these cells was found to be about 450℃ for 20 minutes with oxygen flow. The conversion efficiency increased about 3% after 750 Å thickness of tantalium silica film spin on anti-reflective coating. The best results showed that Voc = 0.545 V, Jsc = 34㎃ and F.F = 0.65, which represent that the conversion efficiency is 12%.
The historians of philosophy and late scholastics: The case of Descartes' theory of ideas

The article analyzes the development of the research of late scholastics sources of Descartes' theory of ideas. In the first part, it analyzes long time dominant opinion among the historians of philosophy that Descartes' theory of ideas is an epistemology in its essence. The reasons for abandoning of such, mainly neokantian image were the appearance of the new generation of the historians of philosophy that investigated the non-metaphysical areas of Descartes' thought, as well as the new interpretations of the very late scholastics philosophy. In second part of the essay, it is shown why late scholastics is relevant for Descartes, and not, for example, Tomas Aquinas and why Francisco Suarez is especially important in the context of Descartes theory of ideas.
Template Driven Performance Modeling of Enterprise Java Beans

System designers find it difficult to obtain insight into the potential performance, and performance problems, of enterprise applications based on component technologies like Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs) or .NET. One problem is the presence of layered resources, which have complicated effects on bottlenecks. Layered queueing network (LQN) performance models are able to capture these effects, and have a modular structure close to that of the system. This work describes templates for EJB components that can be instantiated from the platform-independent description of an application, and composed in a component-based LQN. It describes the process of instantiation, and the interpretation of the model predictions.
PRINCIPLES OF REGULATION AND PRUDENTIAL SUPERVISION: SHOULD THEY BE DIFFERENT FOR MICROENTERPRISE FINANCE ORGANIZATIONS?

This paper offers the microenterprise development community a discussion of general principles of financial intermediary regulation and prudential supervision as well as an evaluation of how these issues are relevant for microenterprise finance orgarizations. Regulation, financial repression, prudential regulation, financial intermediary supervision, and internal control are defined first. A clear distinction among these concepts in critical for the analysis. The rationale for the regulation of depository financial institutions is provided next. The importance of a well-functioning payments system is not a sufficient reason for government regulation of financial markets. Opportunistic behavior on the part of depository institutions that results in excessive risks and instability, asymmetric informa­ tion and moral hazard, and the associated negative externalities are at the core of the rationale for regulation. Consumer protection issues, in the presence of market failure, and conditions for the successful enforcement of financial contracts are emphasized. Regulation is desirable because, in the case of financial markets, preventive action is more cost-effective than remedial interventions. There are no standardized rules for optimum regulation. The authors propose seven regulatory "commandments," including competitive neutrality, minimum cost, specific objectives, incentive compatibility, and flexibility. Recognition of idiosyncratic risks is critical. Amo-g frequently adopted instruments of prudential reguation described are the role of lender of last resort, deposit insurance, licensing, capital adequacy requirements, prohibition of loans to insiders, diversification rules, admissible activities, and enforcement powers. Preventive regulation is distinguished from protective regulation. Five supervision "commandments" are also proposed. Off-site and on-site methodologies for supervision are evaluated. Typical risks (credit, interest rate, liquidity, fraud) are described. Sui generis risks such as subsidy-dependence and donor-intrusion are added to traditional lists of risk. Difficulties of generalization for microenterprise finance organizations are discussed.

"Reducing" Actor's Rationality: Why Go off the RMI(') Welfare Program?*

The “inactivity trap” model is based on a “narrow rationality” postulate according to which recipients of the RMI “decide” not to work because the wages they may expect to earn are lower than the welfare payments they receive. By this postulate, the other essential factor in an individual’s non-employment is his or her length of time on welfare programs (“seniority”). Our analysis of 20,000 RMI recipient files shows that the explanatory value of this model is relatively weak, namely when it comes to what is assumed to be the disincentive effect of receiving the RMI. It also shows that it is inadequate to reason entirely in terms of employment; the content of available work must also be taken into account. It is therefore necessary to abandon the narrow rationality model in favor of a model of contextualized rationality, the “good reasons” model, as it may be observed in 128 interviews with RMI recipients. On the other hand, because the interviews point up so many different and sometimes contradictory “good reasons”, we may in turn question the relevance and usefulness of this model, which in fact interprets behavior rather than explaining it.
Extending constructive operational set theory by impredicative principles

We study constructive set theories, which deal with (partial) operations applying both to sets and operations themselves. Our starting point is a fully explicit, finitely axiomatized system ESTE of constructive sets and operations, which was shown in 10 to be as strong as PA. In this paper we consider extensions with operations, which internally represent description operators, unbounded set quantifiers and local fixed point operators. We investigate the proof theoretic strength of the resulting systems, which turn out to be (except for the description operator) impredicative (being comparable with full second-order arithmetic and the second-order μ–calculus over arithmetic).
The Structuralist Growth Model

This paper examines the underlying theory of structuralist growth models in an effort to compare that framework with the standard approach of Solow and others. Both the standard and structuralist models are solved in a common mathematical framework that emphasizes their similarities. It is seen that while the standard model requires the growth rate of the labor force to be taken as exogenously determined, the structuralist growth model must take investment growth to be determined exogenously in the long run. It is further seen that in order for the structuralist model to reliably converge to steady growth, considerable attention must be given to how agents make investment decisions. In many ways the standard model relies less on agency than does the structuralist. While the former requires a small number of plausible assumptions for steady growth to emerge, the structuralist model faces formidable challenges, especially if investment growth is thought to be determined by the rate of capacity utilization.
Development of higher education and employment in the Federal Republic of Germany

In the Federal Republic of Germany — as in many other industrialized countries higher education has, under the influence of social, economic and political forces, developed from a relatively small, selective and elite-oriented to a large system of mass education. The increasing number of students and university teachers, and the expansion of scientific and technological methods and knowledge has brought about claims for genuine organizational transformations and for massive financial resources. This development has created a number of severe problems in the relationship of the respective socio-economic and political sub-systems; in particular, the relationship between higher education and the labour market has to be considered as a vital but unresolved problem.This article gives a short account of the quantitative development of the German universities and the labour market in the last two decades. It also describes the organizational transformations which followed the federal framework law on higher education (Hochschulrahmengesetz) of January 1976, and deals with some aspects of research in relation to such problems.
Classical Order Parameter Dynamics and the Decay of a Metastable Vacuum State

Transition of the ground state of a classical $\Phi^4$ theory in 2+1 dimensions is studied from a metastable state into the stable equilibrium. The transition occurs in the broken $Z_2$ symmetry phase and is triggered by a vanishingly small amplitude homogeneous external field $h$. A phenomenological theory is proposed in form of an effective equation of the quantitatively accounts for the decay of the false vacuum. The large amplitude transition of the order parameter between the two minima displays characteristics reflecting dynamical aspects of the Maxwell construction.
Recursive SDN for Carrier Networks

Control planes for global carrier networks should be programmable and scalable. Neither traditional control planes nor new SDN-based control planes meet both of these goals. Here we propose a framework for recursive routing computations that combines the best of SDN (programmability through centralized controllers) and traditional networks (scalability through hierarchy) to achieve these two desired properties. Through simulation on graphs of up to 10,000 nodes, we evaluate our design's ability to support a variety of unicast routing and traffic engineering solutions, while incorporating a fast failure recovery mechanism based on network virtualization.
