Nykymaailmassa vieraan kielen hyvää ääntämistä pidetään olennaisena osana kielitaitoa ja kommunikatiivista kompetenssia. Näin myös ääntämisen opettamisesta on tullut yhä merkittävämpi osa vieraan kielen opetusta. Tietotekniikka sovelluksineen on vallannut alaa yhteiskuntamme eri osa-alueilla ja myös kouluissa ollaan vähitellen alettu käyttää tietokoneita apuna ja työvälineinä opetuksessa. Kieltenopetuksessa tietokoneet ja erityisesti internet tuovat vieraat kielet kulttuuripiireineen luokkahuoneeseen tarjoten rajattomasti mahdollisuuksia oppia kielistä ja kulttuureista, käyttää autenttisia materiaaleja ja kommunikoida reaaliajassa sekä muiden kieltenopiskelijoiden että natiivien kanssa. Eri…
Implementation and Performance of the Signal Reconstruction in the ATLAS Hadronic Tile Calorimeter
2012
AbstractThe Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) for the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is currently taking data with proton-proton collisions. The Tile Calorimeter is a sampling calorimeter with steel as absorber and scintillators as active medium. The scintillators are read-out by wavelength shifting fibers coupled to photomultiplier tubes (PMT). The analogue signals from the PMTs are amplified, shaped and digitized by sampling the signal every 25ns. The TileCal front-end electronics allows to read-out the signals produced by about 10000 channels measuring energies ranging from ∼30 MeV to ∼2 TeV. The read-out system is designed to reconstruct the data in real-time fulfilli…
The AD and ELENA orbit, trajectory and intensity measurement systems
2017
This paper describes the new Antiproton Decelerator (AD) orbit measurement system and the Extra Low ENergy Antiproton ring (ELENA) orbit, trajectory and intensity measurement system. The AD machine at European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is presently being used to decelerate antiprotons from 3.57 GeV/c to 100 MeV/c for matter vs anti-matter comparative studies. The ELENA machine, presently under commissioning, has been designed to provide an extra deceleration stage down to 13.7 MeV/c. The AD orbit system is based on 32 horizontal and 27 vertical electrostatic Beam Position Monitor (BPM) fitted with existing low noise front-end amplifiers while the ELENA system consists of 24 \…
The impact of grain size on the efficiency of embedded SIMD image processing architectures
2004
Pixel-per-processing element (PPE) ratio-the amount of image data directly mapped to each processing element-has a significant impact on the area and energy efficiency of embedded SIMD architectures for image processing applications. This paper quantitatively evaluates the impact of PPE ratio on system performance and efficiency for focal-plane SIMD image processing architectures by comparing throughput, area efficiency, and energy efficiency for a range of common application kernels using architectural and workload simulation. While the impact of grain size is affected by the mix of executed instructions within an application program, the most efficient PPE ratio often does not occur at PE…
And Now for Something Completely Different: Running Lisp on GPUs
2018
The internal parallelism of compute resources increases permanently, and graphics processing units (GPUs) and other accelerators have been gaining importance in many domains. Researchers from life science, bioinformatics or artificial intelligence, for example, use GPUs to accelerate their computations. However, languages typically used in some of these disciplines often do not benefit from the technical developments because they cannot be executed natively on GPUs. Instead existing programs must be rewritten in other, less dynamic programming languages. On the other hand, the gap in programming features between accelerators and common CPUs shrinks permanently. Since accelerators are becomi…
Study of relationships between the structure of aroma compounds and their retention-release between vapour phase and dairy gels
2010
An integrated approach physicochemistry and structures activity relationships has been carried out to study the aroma compounds retention-release phenomenon in a fat free dairy gel added with pectin. This study aimed to identify the molecular properties that govern this phenomenon assuming that modifying the structure leads automatically to a change in the retention-release of aroma compounds. For this purpose, we have determined the partition coefficients of 28 aroma compounds in water, in pectin gels and in dairy gels supplemented or not supplemented with pectin, at equilibrium conditions using the PRV method (Phase Ratio Variation). Then, we have performed a structure-retention relations…
Determination of the Transverse Momentum of W Bosons in Hadronic Collisions via Forward Folding Techniques
2015
The measurement of the transverse momentum of W bosons in hadron collisions provides not only an important test of QCD calculations, but also is an important input for the precision measurement of the W boson mass. While the measurement of the Z boson transverse momentum is experimentally well under control, the available unfolding techniques for the W boson final states lead generically to relatively large uncertainties. In this paper, we present a new methodology to estimate the W boson transverse momentum spectrum, significantly improving the systematic uncertainties of current approaches.
Interactions texture-flaveur : mécanismes physico-chimiques ou mécanismes cognitifs ? Application à un gel laitier onctueux
2006
Texture, taste and aroma are key components of the perceived quality of foodstuffs. Many studies showed that modifying one of thèse dimensions could modify the perception of another one. However it is not always clear whether thèse interactions could be attributed to physico-chemical or cognitive mechanisms. The présent work aimed at studying sensory interactions between texture, taste and aroma, in relation with the perception of creaminess, an indicator of food quality. A first step consisted in defining the creaminess concept using sensory and verbal approaches. This study highlighted three groups of consumers: creaminess was associated to texture for the first group, to texture and tast…
Trap spectroscopy and tunnelling luminescence in feldspars
1998
Abstract Comparative studies of tunnel luminescence, thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL), and trap energy spectra by the fractional glow technique (FGT) have been made both with sanidine and microcline feldspars. After X-irradiation at LNT these feldspars show intense tunnelling afterglow. As the temperature is raised, several TSL glow peaks may be observed, starting at 135 K. An intense peak at 250 K is common to all four investigated microclines. In samples of sanidine, tunnelling afterglow overcomes TSL up to 250–260 K. With sanidine and microcline samples, the distributions of trap activation energies vs temperature obtained by the FGT are continuous and quasi-linear. Maxima in the …
