When more is less: The other side of artificial intelligence recommendation
2022
Based on consumers' preferences, AI (artificial intelligence) recommendation automatically filters information, which provokes scholars' debate. Supporters believe that by analyzing the consumers' preferences, AI recommendation enables consumers to choose products more quickly and with lower cost. Critics deem that consumers are more easily trapped in information cocoons because of the use of AI recommendation. This reduces the possibility of consumers contacting with a variety of commodities, thus lowering the consumer decision quality. Based on experiments, this paper discusses the moderating role of AI recommendation on the relationship of consumers' preferences and information cocoons. …
Value Co-creation for Smart Villages: The Institutionalization of Regional Service Ecosystems
2020
Building a versatile portfolio of public and private digital-enabled services is vital in rural and sparsely populated regions, where traditional market mechanisms alone cannot guarantee the availability of essential services. However, contemporary services tend to build on prevalent institutions, often governed by decisions based on market mechanisms, such as economies of scale – service-by-service and village-by-village. A shift is suggested towards networks of smart villages co-creating value as regional service ecosystems. We draw from institutional theory and employ the Service-dominant logic (SDL) framework in investigating value co-creation in rural villages in Sweden. Analyzing 53 l…
Surveillance, from resistance to support
2010
Does the theoretical paradigm elaborated by Foucault for analysing the birth and expansion of disciplinary societies provide a relevant platform for understanding the current methods used for public order management? The development of CCTV in public areas has led over the last few years to considerable debate over whether Foucault's conceptual framework - in reference to Bentham's panopticon - needs to be considered within a fresh perspective to address the new ways in which social control is being exercised. A number of highly instructive papers have been published, where the authors use a variety of metaphors to describe these methods - synopticon (Mathiesen, 1997), omnicon (Groombridge,…
La vidéosurveillance après la LOPPSI 2
2011
National audience; En novembre 2007, le ministère de l’Intérieur, de l’Outre-mer et des Collectivités territoriales a lancé un vaste plan d’équipement afin d’accroître les capacités de vidéosurveillance en France. Deux ans plus tard, l’objectif annoncé de tripler le nombre de caméras installées sur la voie publique n’est pas atteint. Le projet de loi dit LOPPSI 2 vise à lever plusieurs obstacles susceptibles de ralentir les opérations. Mais, au terme de la procédure parlementaire, marquée en particulier par la décision du Conseil constitutionnel de censurer la disposition permettant de recourir à des opérateurs privés pour participer à la surveillance de la voie publique, la LOPPSI 2 ne cha…
« La Production du petit homme »
2003
L'article explore la manière dont les petits garçons sont socialisés au travers des jouets violents et guerriers et la construction des imaginaires sexués formatant des genres masculins.
Cultural Contagion from Micro to Macro: A Semiopragmatics Approach
2017
International audience; Although cultures are a group-based process, cultural change occurs on the level of the individual, through micro-level interactions which give rise to new representations. Based on the semiopragmatics approach to communications, this contribution will theorize this process of cultural evolution, linked to the phenomenon of contagion, notably assisted by media and internet-based communication, based on examples of recent emerging cultural trends.
L’irrespect sur les réseaux socionumériques

La viralité dans l’espace public numérique
2018
Depuis 2007 et la campagne électorale de Ségolène Royal, « Désir d’avenir », les communicants, les militants et les activistes utilisent la potentialité des dispositifs sociotechniques au service de leur candidat et de la propagation de leurs idées. Les réseaux sociaux ont profondément changé la stratégie de communication des équipes de campagne qui ont préempté l’espace numérique en multipliant leur présence social (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.). Souvent composées de digital natives et d’individus maitrisant les codes et les rites en vigueur sur ces dispositifs, les équipes intègrent la force du canal de communication afin de renouveler la relation et la communication entre le politi…
Applying Axial Symmetries to Historical Silk Fabrics: SILKNOW’s Virtual Loom
2020
Symmetry is part of textile art in patterns and motifs that decorate fabrics, which are made by the interlacement of warp and wefts. Moreover, the 3D representation of fabrics have already been studied by some authors
Damping Provision by Different Virtual Synchronous Machine Schemes
2020
The adoption of virtual synchronous machine (VSM) schemes for the control of power converters is gaining more and more attention both in academia and industry. The VSM control strategies fall into the category of grid-forming converter controls, and they are intended for a range of different applications, providing specific services and different kinds of support to the grid. The paper investigates the possibility of damping provision to the system by VSM power converters. Different schemes are considered and compared, showing the opportunity of the investigated solutions through combined modal and time domain analyses. A specific modification of the power synchronization loop is recognized…
