Scalability is one of the characteristics of reconfigurable manufacturing systems, which aim to adapt the production capacity, quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively. Our goal in this chapter is to propose a global analysis of all configurations possible for a system on the point of view of scalability. For a fixed balancing of operations on the...
The identification of brain morphological alterations in newly diagnosed PD patients (i.e. 'de novo') could potentially serve as a biomarker and accelerate diagnosis. However, presently no consensus exists in the literature possibly due to several factors: small size cohorts, differences in segmentation techniques or bad control of false positive r...
Identify the design pattern language of serious game for imparting innovation knowledge. Then design and digitalize one serious game which dedicated to teaching RID methodology.
The periodically forced light-limited Droop model represents microalgae growth under co-limitation by light and a single substrate, accounting for periodic fluctuations of factors such as light and temperature. In this paper, we describe the global dynamics of this model, considering general monotone growth and uptake rate functions. Our main resul...
We introduce a novel aggregation method to efficiently perform image denoising. Preliminary filters are aggregated in a non-linear fashion, using a new metric of pixel proximity based on how the pool of filters reaches a consensus. The numerical performance of the method is illustrated and we show that the aggregate significantly outperforms each o...
Web tracking has been extensively studied over the last decade. To detect tracking, most of the research studies and user tools rely on consumer protection lists. However, there was always a suspicion that lists miss unknown trackers. In this paper, we propose an alternative solution to detect trackers by analyzing behavior of invisible pixels that...
This chapter is build from three 1.5 hours lectures given in Udine in april 2018 on various aspects of Earth's core dynamics. The chapter starts with a short historical note on the discovery of Earth's magnetic field and core (section 1). We then turn to an introduction of magnetohydrodynamics (section 2), introducing and discussing the induction e...
The present contribution describes a numerical technique devoted to the nonsmooth modal analysis (natural frequencies and mode shapes) of a non-internally resonant elastic bar of length $L$ subject to a Robin condition at $x=0$ and a frictionless unilateral contact condition at $x=L$. When contact is ignored, the system of interest exhibits non-com...
sparql is the w3c standard language for querying rdf graphs. Since its 1.1 version, sparql allows queries with Property Paths. They correspond to a form of regular path queries over graphs that raises new challenges for sparql evaluators and rdf stores. Property Paths can be recursive and the optimization of recursive queries remains a challenge bo...
