Models and Fiction (V6)

Most scientific models are not physical objects, and this raises important questions. What sort of entity are models, what is truth in a model, and how do we learn about models? In this paper I argue that models share important aspects in common with literary fiction, and that therefore theories of fiction can be brought to bear on these questions. In particular, I argue that the pretence theor...

Network and system management activity permanently evolves to expand its scope in term of target entities as well as management tasks to answer IT environment complexity. Consequently, management application are moving to distributed and open approaches. Likewise management information have to deal with recent issues such as heterogeneity and scaleability. This paper presents and analyses these...

Compressed Domain Scene Change Detection Based on Transform Units Distribution in High Efficiency Video Coding Standard

Scene change detection plays an important role in a number of video applications, including video indexing, searching, browsing, semantic features extraction, and, in general, pre-processing and post-processing operations. Several scene change detection methods have been proposed in different coding standards. Most of them use fixed thresholds for the similarity metrics to determine if there wa...
