De nombreux travaux critiques dans le domaine des études littéraires autochtones utilisent critère linguistique francophone comme déterminant la constitution du corpus, voire de l’histoire littéraire autochtone au Québec. Dans cet article, l’autrice fait l’argument, à partir d’une lecture récit autobiographique Geniesh : An Indian Girlhood l’écrivaine crie Jane (Willis) Pachano, selon lequel re...

The Arctic and its animals figure prominently as icons of climate change in Western imaginaries. Persuasive storytelling centred on compelling animal icons, like the polar bear, is a powerful strategy to frame environmental challenges, mobilizing collective global efforts resist degradation species endangerment. power bear imagery part derived from perceived “environmental sacredness” that has ...

Reconfigurable hardware is ideal for use in Systems-on-a-Chip, as it provides hardware speeds as well as the benefits of post-fabrication modification. However, not all applications are equally suited to any one reconfigurable architecture. Therefore, the Totem Project focuses on the automatic generation of customized reconfigurable hardware. This paper details our first attempts at the design ...

The architecture, key design parameters and results for a highly integrated front-end readout system fabricated as a single ASIC are presented. The chip (VFAT2) comprises complex analog and digital functions traditionally designed as separate components. VFAT2 contains very low noise 128 channel front-end amplification with programmable internal calibration, intelligent “fast OR” trigger buildi...

Many protocols exist to support the maintenance of consistency of data in fault-tolerant distributed systems ; these protocols are quite expensive and thus have not been widely adopted. The Totem protocol supports consistent concurrent operations by placing a total order on broadcast messages. This total order is achieved by including a sequence number in a token circulated around a logical rin...

HAL is a multi-disciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research documents, whether they are published or not. The documents may come from teaching and research institutions in France or abroad, or from public or private research centers. L’archive ouverte pluridisciplinaire HAL, est destinée au dépôt et à la diffusion de documents scientifiques de niveau...

A model of pp and ¯ pp elastic scattering developed previously to analyze ISR and SPS Collider data is extended to predict pp elastic differential cross section at LHC at c.m. energy of 14 TeV and momentum transfer range |t| = 0-10 GeV 2. Role of the gauged linear σ-model as an underlying field theory model describing nucleon structure and elastic scattering is discussed. Possibility of finding...
