The iPad is a brand of iOS and iPadOS-based tablet computers that are developed by Apple Inc, first introduced on January 27, 2010. The iPad range consists of the original iPad lineup and the flagship products iPad Mini, iPad Air, and iPad Pro. The iPhone's iOS operating system (OS) was initially used for the iPad but in September 2019, its OS was switched to a fork of iOS called iPadOS that has better support for the device's hardware and its user interface is customized for the tablets' larger screens. The iPad's App Store is subject to application and content approval. Many older devices are susceptible to jailbreaking, which circumvents these restrictions. The original iPad was well-received for its software and was recognized as one of the most-influential inventions of 2010. As of the third quarter of 2021, iPad had a market share of 34.6%; beside personal use, the iPad is used in the business, education, healthcare, and technology sectors. There are two variants of iPad; one

Propagation of peeling in finite adhesive pads

Ismail Honsali

Adhesive pads are commonly used in both natural and engineering systems. A recent study [Cohen et al. Soft Matter 2018] has shown that the failure of finite pads, subjected to loading parallel to the substrate, can be triggered by different mechanisms; interfacial fracture that initiates near the pulling end, or curling that is triggered at the far end. The former mechanism was shown to be initially stable, while the later mechanism leads to unstable peeling. Although the initiation of peeling is now well understood, to determine the force bearing capacity of finite adhesive pads, the entire peeling process must be considered. In the present study, we thus analyze the evolution of detachment up to complete failure by combination of high precision experimentation, and numerical simulation. We find that regardless of the properties of the pad eventually all pads fail by curling while the interfacial cavity serves to delay the failure. Additionally, re-adhering of the cavitated region before onset of curling is observed. Additional work needs to be done to be able to capture the phenomenon numerically.

Iris Liveness Detection Competition (LivDet-Iris) – The 2020 Edition

Priyanka Das, Sébastien Marcel, Amir Mohammadi

Launched in 2013, LivDet-Iris is an international competition series open to academia and industry with the aim to assess and report advances in iris Presentation Attack Detection (PAD). This paper presents results from the fourth competition of the series: LivDet-Iris 2020. This year's competition introduced several novel elements: (a) incorporated new types of attacks (samples displayed on a screen, cadaver eyes and prosthetic eyes), (b) initiated LivDet-Iris as an on-going effort, with a testing protocol available now to everyone via the Biometrics Evaluation and Testing (BEAT)open-source platform to facilitate reproducibility and benchmarking of new algorithms continuously, and (c) performance comparison of the submitted entries with three baseline methods (offered by the University of Notre Dame and Michigan State University), and three open-source iris PAD methods available in the public domain. The best performing entry to the competition reported a weighted average APCER of 59.10% and a BPCER of 0.46% over all five attack types. This paper serves as the latest evaluation of iris PAD on a large spectrum of presentation attack instruments.

Livres électroniques et tablettes de lecture (e-books et e-readers) en bibliothèque: défis et expériences

Thomas Guignard, Alexandre Lopes

Cette présentation expose un bref état des lieux du livre électronique dans les deux bibliothèques universitaires lausannoises. Tout d'abord, nous abordons le prêt de tablettes de lecture (e-readers) en relatant l'expérience de la Bibliothèque Cantonale Universitaire (BCU) qui a récemment mis à disposition de ses lecteurs des appareils Kindle DX et Apple iPad. Ceux-ci ont rencontré un grand succès auprès des utilisateurs, mais la gestion de leur contenu reste difficile à gérer dans le cadre d'une bibliothèque. Dans un deuxième temps, nous évoquons la collection de livres électroniques de la Bibliothèque de l'EPFL pour passer rapidement en revue les différentes étapes du "circuit du livre" électronique: sélection, acquisition, catalogage, relevé des statistiques et conservation à long terme.
