Age-dependent regulation of antioxidant genes by p38α MAPK in the liver
2018
p38α is a redox sensitive MAPK activated by pro-inflammatory cytokines and environmental, genotoxic and endoplasmic reticulum stresses. The aim of this work was to assess whether p38α controls the antioxidant defense in the liver, and if so, to elucidate the mechanism(s) involved and the age-related changes. For this purpose, we used liver-specific p38α-deficient mice at two different ages: young-mice (4 months-old) and old-mice (24 months-old). The liver of young p38α knock-out mice exhibited a decrease in GSH levels and an increase in GSSG/GSH ratio and malondialdehyde levels. However, old mice deficient in p38α had higher hepatic GSH levels and lower GSSG/GSH ratio than young p38α knock-…
Gares exurbanisées et développement urbain : Le cas des gares TGV bourguignonnes
2009
Dès la mise en service de la ligne TGV Sud-Est, au début des années 80, la Bourgogne a bénéficié de la création de deux nouvelles gares TGV, aménagées en périphérie des pôles urbains du Creusot et de Mâcon. Malgré leurs fonctions réduites, ces nouvelles gares périurbaines ont suscité d’ambitieux projets d’aménagement. De nouvelles zones d’activités ont ainsi vu le jour à proximité de ces gares. Ces projets n’ont eu toutefois que des retombées limitées en matière d’implantation d’activités économiques. Since the opening of TGV south-east railway line at the beginning of the 80s Bourgogne has profited by construction of two new stations beyond the edge of Le Creusot and Mâcon. Despite their l…

Electrical characterization of low power CIGSSe photovoltaic modules
2015
This paper presents the electrical characterization of low power CIGSSe photovoltaic (PV) modules. Such investigation is achieved to perform a comparison of their performances with conventional silicon PV modules. For this purpose, a test bench, suitable for the characterization of both traditional and innovative low power modules, has been set-up and experimental results are accurately described and discussed.
Programs' Efficacy to Develop Employable Skills for People With Functional Diversity: A Meta-Analysis
2021
Purpose: Promoting the labour integration of people with functional diversity is a key element to achieve their social inclusion. This meta-analysis aims to examine the effectiveness of experimental programs in developing employable skills for people with disabilities. Methods: Literature searches up to June 2019 were conducted in four databases (Web of Science, Scopus, PsycINFO and ERIC). Studies that met the following criteria were selected: (1) The program should develop employable skills; (2) the participants should be people with functional diversity; (3) the study should have a design with an experimental group and a control group as well as pretest and posttest measurements; (4) the …
A real time operating system for embedded platforms
2004
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2004 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad SDL (Specification and Description Language) is today widely used for description and development of complex systems. One of the major benefits of SDL is the possibility to graphically describe a complex system, as well as the capability to analyze the system before implementation. This thesis evaluates SDL as a formal description language for use in an embedded platform. To be able to map the properties and behaviour of an SDL system into a programming language, a Real Time Operating System (RTOS) must be used. We will evaluate all properties of SDL to get a overview of which properties can be mappe…
Ontological representation of texts, and its applicationsin text analysis
2003
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2003 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad For the management of a company, the need to know what people think of their products or services is becoming increasingly important in an increasingly competitive market. As the Internet can nearly be described as a digital mirror of events in the ”real“ world, being able to make sense of the semi structured nature of natural language texts published in this ubiquitous medium has received growing interest. The approach proposed in the thesis combines natural language processing and ontologies to represent elements in texts and relations between them. These relations are used to determine what terms …
From Live Sequence Charts to implementation : a study of the LSC specification, the execution of behavioral requirements and exploring the possibilit…
2003
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2003 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad In the article ”From Play-In Scenarios to Code: An Achievable Dream” [8] D.Harel outlines an exiting new way of developing software with the aid of the new and expressively powerful language of live sequence charts (LSC) [1] for describing message sequencing. The language of LSC is a highly visual approach for modeling behavioral requirements and is based on message sequence charts [13]. LSC introduces the ability to specify mandatory behavior in charts through the notion of “liveness”, events that must happen. The development process described involves using a friendly capture method called “play-in…
Et studie i applikasjonsutvikling for ulike kommunikasjonsteknologier og UI på mobilterminaler
2004
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2004 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad Den siste tiden er mobiltelefoners bruksområder blitt kraftig utvidet i form av støtte for tredjepartsprogramvare. SEA (Smart Energy Applications AS) har utviklet et trådløst styringssystem for smarthus basert på Bluetooth. I denne sammenhengen ønsker SEA å undersøke mulighetene for å benytte mobilterminaler til styring av Bluetooth nettverket. I denne oppgaven evalueres applikasjonsplattformer og kommunikasjonsteknologier, spesielt J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition), Bluetooth og GPRS, med fokus på brukergrensesnitt. Videre diskuteres løsninger for trådløs styring av SEAs Bluetooth nettverk, for å avgjøre …
MDA and integration of legacy systems
2003
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2003 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad OMG’s Model Driven ArchitectureTM, MDATM, is the new paradigm of software development and a new way of writing specifications and developing applications, based on a platform-independent model (PIM). MDA divorces implementation details from business functions. Thus, it is not necessary to repeat the process of modeling of applications or system’s functionality and behavior each time a new technology comes along. With the MDA, it is easier to integrate the new applications with the old application that is already installed. In the real time distributed telecommunication system, MDA addresses the chall…
