Résumé. Le développement considérable des techniques de géo localisation et des périphériques mobiles mène à une profusion de bases d’objets mobiles et soulève la question de l’exploitation pour l’aide à la décision. Si les systèmes conventionnels d’analyse en ligne (OLAP) sont utilisés efficacement dans l’analyse des données basées sur la modélisation multidimensionnelle, ils ne sont pas adapt...

related laboratory sciences, who turned to psychiatry relatively late in his career. Like Meyer, too, he adopted a broad, holistic standpoint and exercised his influence as much by his personal qualities as by his work and voluminous publications. Benjamin White's biography is clearly an act of reverend devotion, complete with a family tree, Cobb's full bibliography, photographs, the transcript...

Risk-based regulation and risk governance gain momentum in most sectorial ecosystems, should they be the finance, the healthcare or the telecommunications ecosystems. Although there is a profusion of tools to address this issue at the corporate level, worth is to note that no solution fulfils this function at the ecosystem level yet. Therefore, in this article, the Business Service Ecosystem (B...

Habitually professional phagocytes, including macrophages, eradicate microbial invaders from the human body without overt signs of infection. Despite this, there exist select bacteria that are professional pathogens, causing significant morbidity and mortality across the globe and Staphylococcus aureus is no exception. S. aureus is a highly successful pathogen that can infect virtually every ti...

A profusion of fruit forms implies that seed dispersal plays a central role in plant ecology, yet the chance that an individual seed will ultimately produce a reproductive adult is low to infinitesimal. Extremely high variance in survival implies that variations in fruit production or transitions from seed to seedling will contribute little to population growth. The hey issue is that variance i...

Physical exertion is not now an essential part of many people's working existence and because hard physical labour was the lot of the "labouring classes" from which many people have tried to escape by getting more genteel occupations, the correlates of exertion, heavy breathing and sweating are considered "not nice" and associated with the lower orders. A gentleman no less than a lady does not ...

Mitochondria amplify activation of caspases during apoptosis by releasing cytochrome c and other cofactors. This is accompanied by fragmentation of the organelle and remodeling of the cristae. Here we provide evidence that Optic Atrophy 1 (OPA1), a profusion dynamin-related protein of the inner mitochondrial membrane mutated in dominant optic atrophy, protects from apoptosis by preventing cytoc...

Privacy and mHealth are fast becoming an important influence on the U.S. healthcare system. The most visible element of mHealth is the profusion of mobile phone applications, especially ones related to wellness. Before researchers can fully examine the impact of mHealth on healthcare, barriers to use need to be addressed. One of the barriers most cited by medical professionals and patients is l...

The field of inflammatory arthritis owes much to the advances in imaging technology which have enlightened not only clinical specialists but also researchers worldwide. The most exciting developments in recent decades have centred upon rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and more specifically the ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings at various stages of the natural history of thi...

Despite the profusion of NIALM researches and products using complex algorithms, addressing the market for low cost, compact, real-time and effective NIALM smart meters is still a challenge. This paper talks about the design of a NIALM smart meter for home appliances, with the ability to self-detect and disaggregate most home appliances. In order to satisfy the compact, real-time, low price req...
