No full textAn answer to B. Défaut, E. Boitier, R. Cloupeau, F. Dusoulier, G. C. Luquet, D. Morin & E. Sardet about the Atlas of Orthoptera and Mantodea of France. The critical article of the Atlas of Orthoptera and Mantodea of France by the above-mentioned authors is reviewed. It proves to be a mixture where a few justified observations are merged in a lot of sophisms and untrue statements.La critique de l'Atlas des Orthoptères et Mantides de France par Défaut et al. (2004) est analysée. Elle se révèle être un amalgame où se côtoient, à côté de quelques observations justifiées, sophismes et contre-vérités.Voisin Jean-François. Réponse à B. Défaut, E.

Etude et conception du boitier commande blocage numéro 192492
No full text75 f. : ill. ; 30 cm. ( + CD-Rom)Cette étude a été profitable ; elle nous a permis d’appliquer nos connaissance théorique et pratique. Le stage pratique que nous avons effectué au sein de l’entreprise nous a mieux aider à comprendre le déroulement d’un processus complet de fabrication d’un produit. Le travail tel qu’il est, ne s’agit pas d’un traité théorique très général sur l’élaboration de la gamme d’usinage du Boitier Commande Blocage N°192492, mais d’un ouvrage qui rassemble beaucoup de notions sur l’étude d’un projet de fabrication. Notre souhait est que ce modeste travail puisse servir de support bibliographique pour les prochains projets de fin d’études ayant un rapport avec le nôtre. Enfin nous souhaitons à priori que ce projet ait finalisé pas une réalisation et faire ainsi une comparaison entre l’étude et la réalisation
Locating Fiber Loss Anomalies with a Receiver-side Monitoring Algorithm exploiting Cross-Phase Modulation
No full textWe propose and experimentally test a cross-phase modulation based algorithm to monitor network loss anomalies from detected data. The idea does not need service interruption, special signals, nor an exhaustive search of the anomaly coordinate
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Multipoint Overlapping Optical Networks
No full textCoherent transmission has drastically evolved in the last decade to provide high flexibility to improve spectral efficiency. This yields a point-to-point capacity close to Shannon's limit. In this work, we present the multipoint overlapping optical network architecture in a multi-transmitter to single-receiver context to boost the network capacity. It overlaps two optical signals, partly reusing network resources, here frequency slots of 12.5 GHz width. We show that a joint digital signal processing, based on multi-stage parallel interference cancellation efficiently compensates inter-channel interference up to 39% spectrum overlap with a 1 dB SNR penalty for PDM-QPSK signals. To investigate the impact of the residual interference penalty, we model the proposed solution as an additional power-independent Gaussian-noise term introduced in the transmission. Experiments and simulations have successfully validated the model and the extra penalty is shown to be dependent only on the chosen overlapping given factor. Finally, with such a model, we study the network gains brought by the proposed architecture. We investigate different networking scenarios assuming either 2-slot and 3-slot of overlapping, resulting in similar to 20% and similar to 40% of overlapping. We demonstrate a network capacity gain of up to 17%
[Newspaper Clipping: Author Claims Evidence of Second JFK Assassin #1]

Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
No full textThe desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
John F. Kennedy telegram to Roosevelt
No full textJersey Homesteads (later the Borough of Roosevelt) was established in the 1930s as an agro-industrial cooperative community. It was established specifically for urban Jewish garment workers, many of whom had emigrated from Europe. President John F. Kennedy sent a telegram to the citizens of Roosevelt, New Jersey, apologizing for not being able to attend the memorial dedication in honor of former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. (Jersey Homesteads became Roosevelt in 1945 in honor of the president.) President Kennedy expressed his gratitude to the people of Roosevelt for constructing the memorial, and commented that it will serve as a constant reminder of Roosevelt's good works
Logarithmic variance profiles and the corresponding f-1 spectra of temperature fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection
No full textWe report experimental results for the temperature variance 2(z) and the corresponding frequency spectra P(f) in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC) in a cylindrical sample of aspect ratioT= D/L = 1:00 (D = 1:12 m is the diameter and L = 1:12 m the height). The measurements were conducted in the Rayleigh-number range 1011 < Ra < 1:35 1014 and Pr ' 0:8. For Ra = 1:35x1014, 2(z) could be described well by a logarithmic dependence on the vertical position z in a range of z 1 < z < z 2 with z 1 ' 70 and z 2 = 0:1L. Here L=(2Nu) is the thickness of a thin thermal sublayer adjacent to the horizontal plate where the heat flux (denoted by the Nusselt number Nu) is carried mostly by thermal diffusion. In the log layer, we found that the temperature spectra had a significant frequency range over which P(f) f with close to 1. As Ra decreased, increased so that the log layer became thinner. At Ra = 2:05 1011, z 2 < z 1 and therefore there was no range for a log layer. Correspondingly, the temperature spectrum near the horizontal plate did not have the f1 scaling form either
