Organisation et conditions de la formation des doctorants dans le cadre de l'université française
2007
This research, refering to the theoretical framework of Pierre Bourdieu, shows that higher education can be considered as a “champ scientifique”, defined as a microcosm, relatively autonomous from the economic and social macrocosm, nevertheless strongly affected by its values and its evolution toward liberalism. This evolution is clearly perceveid in the structural reforms (contractualization, decentralization, increased autonomy...) inferred notably by the construction of the European Higher Education and Research Area. Higher education is structured in a hierarchy with dominating disciplines (mathematics, physique, chemistry...) at the center and, dominated disciplines (Social sciences an…
Querying Dynamic and Context-Sensitive Metadata in Semantic Web
2005
RDF (core Semantic Web standard) is not originally appropriate for context representation, because of its initial focus on the ordinary Web resources, such as web pages, files, databases, services, etc., which structure and content are more or less stable. However, on the other hand, emerging industrial applications consider e.g. machines, processes, personnel, services for condition monitoring, remote diagnostics and maintenance, etc. to be specific classes of Web resources and thus a subject for semantic annotation. Such resources are naturally dynamic, not only from the point of view of changing values for some attributes (state of resource), but also from the point of view of changing “…
Exploring Neighborhood Influences on Small-Area Variations in Intimate Partner Violence Risk: A Bayesian Random-Effects Modeling Approach
2014
This paper uses spatial data of cases of intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) to examine neighborhood-level influences on small-area variations in IPVAW risk in a police district of the city of Valencia (Spain). To analyze area variations in IPVAW risk and its association with neighborhood-level explanatory variables we use a Bayesian spatial random-effects modeling approach, as well as disease mapping methods to represent risk probabilities in each area. Analyses show that IPVAW cases are more likely in areas of high immigrant concentration, high public disorder and crime, and high physical disorder. Results also show a spatial component indicating remaining variability attribut…

First Measurement of Transverse-Spin-Dependent Azimuthal Asymmetries in the Drell-Yan Process
2017
The first measurement of transverse-spin-dependent azimuthal asymmetries in the pion-induced Drell-Yan (DY) process is reported. We use the CERN SPS 190 GeV/$c$, $\pi^{-}$ beam and a transversely polarized ammonia target. Three azimuthal asymmetries giving access to different transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions (PDFs) are extracted using dimuon events with invariant mass between 4.3 GeV/$c^2$ and 8.5 GeV/$c^2$. The observed sign of the Sivers asymmetry is found to be consistent with the fundamental prediction of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) that the Sivers TMD PDFs extracted from DY have a sign opposite to the one extracted from semi-inclusive deep-inelastic sc…
Safety study of sodium pentosan polysulfate for adult patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II
2019
Current therapies for the mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) do not effectively address skeletal and neurological manifestations. Pentosan polysulfate (PPS) is an alternative treatment strategy that has been shown to improve bone architecture, mobility, and neuroinflammation in MPS animals. The aims of this study were to a) primarily establish the safety of weekly PPS injections in attenuated MPS II, b) assess the efficacy of treatment on MPS pathology, and c) define appropriate clinical endpoints and biomarkers for future clinical trials. Subcutaneous injections were administered to three male Japanese patients for 12 weeks. Enzyme replacement therapy was continued in two of the patients while th…
TEMPORAL STRUCTURE OF THE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY X-LINKED MOUSE BEHAVIOUR TESTED IN OPEN FIELD
2017
In comparison with wilde type mice, animal models of Duchenne Muscolar Dystrophy (mdx mice) show a different behavioral organization with a more articulated structure of the temporal patterns. Present study sheds light, for the first time, on specific temporal features of behavior in an animal model of DMD.
Négligence illicite et responsabilités multiples: partage ou cumul de responsabilités?

This paper addresses the issue of the distribution of international responsibility between two or more States or between an international organization and its member States in case of violation of obligations of due diligence.
TBRA: A scalable routing algorithm in highly mobile large scale pure ad hoc wireless mesh networks
2009
In highly mobile pure ad-hoc wireless mesh networks, fast rerouting within low routing discovery delay is a mandatory requirement for routing algorithm to support interactive applications such as VoIP. Also, the communication overhead should be thwarted when networks grow to a large scale. We propose a Tree-Based Routing Algorithm - TBRA to facilitate such two goals. On one hand, TBRA has very low routing discovery delay due to its proactive property. On the other hand, TBRA performs more efficiently than other proactive protocols with respect to low communication overhead, which thanks to its short routing packet length, less numbers and smaller routing table size. Our modeling analysis an…
A flexible and tunable route discovery mechanism for on-demand protocols
2004
Mobile ad-hoc networks are characterized by multihop wireless links and absence of cellular infrastructure. For the last years, routing has been the area under most intensive research. In particular, on-demand routing protocols proposed are extremely attractive due to their low-overhead and efficiency. Currently, wireless ad-hoc networks lack multipath routing protocols. Multipath routing enables increased QoS support, load balancing and enhanced route stability. In this paper we present a new route discovery solution that increases the number of routes found, while reducing the routing overhead when compared to previous proposals. Simulation results show that the additional routing overhea…
