The contribution of public communication on the good governance process: The case of public institutions in Morocco
No full textInternational audienceGood governance includes all the rules and collective processes by which the actors concernedparticipate in the decision-making and realization of public actions. Public communication witha strategic and well-structured vision of information exchange is part of this perspective.Despite the fact that studies have been devoted to the relationship between publiccommunication and good governance in public institutions, few empirical studies haveexplained the nature of this relationship. As part of the new public management, publicinstitutions in Morocco have moved towards a whole new way of managing through reformsand implementation of the good governance approach.The purpose of our qualitative study is to highlight the importance of public communication inthe process of good governance, as well as to clarify the different components of publiccommunication in order to understand its contribution to the process of good governance. Theinterviewees were managers and officials of various positions within public institutionsoperating in different sectors of activity. Ten semi-structured interviews were conducted andsubjected to a thematic content analysis. The results identify the main elements that determinepublic communication: public service values, free access to information, digitization,interactivity, personal skills and behaviors, ethics and transparency. Especially since eachcomponent is taken into account both theoretically and empirically in the process of goodgovernance, takes place in Moroccan institutions more and more.Thereby, this research provides valuable implications about the potential role of publiccommunication in contributing to transparency, clarity in decision-making, ethical behavior,the rule of law, and strengthening the public interest in public institutions in Morocco

Performance Characteristics of Oncomine Focus Assay for Theranostic Analysis of Solid Tumors, A (21-Months) Real-Life Study
No full textInternational audienceNext generation sequencing analysis is crucial for therapeutic decision in various solid tumor contexts. The sequencing method must remain accurate and robust throughout the instrument lifespan allowing the biological validation of patients’ results. This study aims to evaluate the long-term sequencing performances of the Oncomine Focus assay kit allowing theranostic DNA and RNA variants detection on the Ion S5XL instrument. We evaluated the sequencing performances of 73 consecutive chips over a 21-month period and detailed the sequencing data obtained from both quality controls and clinical samples. The metrics describing sequencing quality remained stable throughout the study. We showed that an average of 11 × 106 (±0.3 × 106) reads were obtained using a 520 chip leading to an average of 6.0 × 105 (±2.6 × 105) mapped reads per sample. Of 400 consecutive samples, 95.8 ± 16% of amplicons reached the depth threshold of 500X. Slight modifications of the bioinformatics workflow improved DNA analytical sensitivity and allowed the systematic detection of expected SNV, indel, CNV, and RNA alterations in quality controls samples. The low inter-run variability of DNA and RNA—even at low variant allelic fraction, amplification factor, or reads counts—indicated that our method was adapted to clinical practice. The analysis of 429 clinical DNA samples indicated that the modified bioinformatics workflow allowed detection of 353 DNA variants and 88 gene amplifications. RNA analysis of 55 clinical samples revealed 7 alterations. This is the first study showing the long-term robustness of the Oncomine Focus assay in clinical routine practice

De la vraye escolle des jeunes Princes. L’éducation du prince dans les livres d’emblèmes des XVIe et XVIIe siècles
No full textInternational audienceAlthough many emblems resemble mirrors of princes giving advice to future sovereigns, the question of the transmission of knowledge and the education of the prince is more rarely addressed. However, the authors of emblems deal with this issue in a very concrete way, focusing in particular on the influence –positive or negative– that teachers can exert on their pupils, even if most of them recognize the need for early education. Finally, the recommendations on teaching and pedagogy formulated in several emblems reveal the importance of the issue of the education of the prince in the Renaissance and the 17th century.Si de nombreux emblèmes s’apparentent à des miroirs des princes en délivrant des conseils aux futurs souverains, la question de la transmission du savoir et de l’enseignement du prince est plus rarement abordée. Cependant, les auteurs d’emblèmes traitent de cette question de manière très concrète en s’attachant notamment à l’influence –positive ou négative– que les maîtres peuvent exercer sur leurs élèves, même si la plupart reconnaissent la nécessité d’une éducation précoce. Enfin les préconisations en matière d’enseignement et de pédagogies formulées dans plusieurs emblèmes révèlent l’importance de la question de l’éducation du prince à la Renaissance et au XVIIe siècle
Mitigating starvation in dense WLANs: A multi-armed Bandit solution
No full textInternational audienceWith the recent 802.11ax amendment to the IEEE standard commercialized as Wi-Fi 6, WLANs have the potential to greatly improve the spatial reuse of radio channels. This resorts to the new ability for APs (Access Points) to dynamically modify their transmission power as well as the signal energy threshold beyond which they consider the radio channel to be free or busy. In general, selecting adequate values for these parameters is complex because of (i) the high dimensionality of the problem and (ii) the uncertainty of the radio environment. To overcome these difficulties, we frame this problem as a MAB (Multi-Armed Bandit) problem and propose an efficient and robust solution using Thompson sampling, an original sampling of WLAN configurations, and a tailor-made reward function. We evaluate the efficiency of our solution as well as several other ones with scenarios inspired by real-life WLANs' deployments using the network simulator ns-3. The numerical results show the ability of our solution along with its superiority over the others at finding adequate parameterization at each AP thereby significantly improving the overall performance of WLANs
