L’actualité des ressources numériques traitant des découvertes de mosaïques
International audienceNews about digital resources dealing with mosaic discoveriesMy article discusses the diversity of digital resources available for the study of ancientmosaics, and the needs of specialists in data searching methods. After we proposed a“Bulletin du numérique”, an annual list of digital information about mosaics, AIEMAagreed to publish this chronicle on the internet at the address http://aiema75rs.wixsite.com/aiema; the rubric name is “digital”. Following examples found on academicwebsites, in the media and in blogs that have collected links to archaeological information,we concluded that selected content on the public internet enriches the materialsavailable for study

Développement d'un système AGV utilisant MBSE méthode et technologie multi-agents
International audienceToday, smart manufacturing is differentiated from many other initiatives by its emphasis on human ingenuity. Human capabilities must be enhanced by intelligently designing a customized solution for a specific domain. For example, Industry 4.0 is based on collaborative robots that digitize and simplify manufacturing processes. In fact, Automatic Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are widely used in intelligent industries due to their productivity, flexibility, and versatility. They are widely considered as one of the most important tools for flexible logistics in workshops. They can move materials and products without a predefined route. Many commercially available AGVs provide a self-guided navigation system to find their way to target workstations. However, many developers and producers of industrial robots face several challenges in designing AGV systems, such as the difficulty of defining a decentralized system decision as well as the discontinuity and complexity of the design process. In this article, we propose a new design approach based on multi-agent technology and the Model-based systems engineering method (MBSE) to meet the challenges of functional, physical, and software integration. It is a top-down approach from requirements specification, functional and structural modeling using the systems modeling language (SysML) to model simulation with the multi-agent tool (Anylogic). Our design approach was applied on an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) system to serve items and deliver parts and supplies to stations in a smart factory
Waves in a random medium: Endpoint Strichartz estimates and number estimates
The research of S.B. was partly done during a CNRS sabbatical semesterInternational audienceIn this article we reconsider the problem of the propagation of waves in a random medium in a kinetic regime. The final aim of this program would be the understanding of the conditions which allow to derive a kinetic or radiative transfer equation. Although it is not reached for the moment, accurate and somehow surprising number estimates in the Fock space setting, which happen to be propagated by the dynamics on macroscopic time scales, are obtained. Keel and Tao endpoint Strichartz estimates play a crucial role after being combined with a Cauchy-Kowalevski type argument. Although the whole article is focussed on the simplest case of Schrödinger waves in a gaussian random potential of which the translation into a QFT problem is straightforward, several intermediate results are written in a general setting in order to be applied to other similar problems

Les propriétaires bailleurs, la rénovation énergétique et le Diagnostic de Performance Energétique, Enseignements-clés du projet PREMOCLASSE
Le CIRED a réalisé, en 2021-2022, une étude qualitative sur la manière dont les bailleurs privés, en France, abordent l'enjeu de rénovation énergétique, dans un contexte émergent de renforcement des exigences de rénovation énergétique, en lien avec une refonte du Diagnostic de Performance Energétique (DPE). L’analyse d’une quarantaine d’entretiens permet de distinguer 10 profils de bailleurs ayant des pratiques locatives, des approches du DPE et de la rénovation énergétique différentes. Elle montre que la moitié de ces profils sont susceptibles de répondre au renforcement des exigences par des travaux de rénovation énergétique. L’autre moitié est incertaine des conséquences ou envisage une sortie du marché de la location non saisonnière. Cet ensemble suggère que le renforcement des exigences aurait des effets de redistribution importants sur le marché.In 2021-2022, CIRED conducted a qualitative study on how private landlords in France approach the challenge of energy renovation, in an emerging context of tightening energy renovation requirements, linked to an overhaul of the Diagnostic de Performance Energétique (DPE). An analysis of some forty interviews reveals 10 landlord profiles with different rental practices and approaches to DPE and energy renovation. It shows that half of these profiles are likely to respond to the more stringent requirements by carrying out energy-efficient renovation work. The other half is uncertain of the consequences, or are considering exiting the non-seasonal rental market. Taken together, these findings suggest that stricter requirements would have a significant redistributive effect on the rental market
