The present article evaluates the knowledge that can be attributed to the application of « Best Practices » in the field of urban habitat. It especially aims at identifying the conditions of innovation in such a setting, as well as defining the necessary c ...
We review the recent discoveries of magnetic fields in different types of massive stars and briefly discuss strategies for spectropolarimetric observations to be carried out in the future. ...
The impossibility of reaching deterministic consensus in an asynchronous and crash prone system was established for a weak variant of the problem, usually called weak consensus, where a set of processes need to decide on a common value in {0, 1}, so that b ...
Biphasic electrospray ionization (BESI) mass spectrometry is achieved by using a dual-channel microsprayer, where channels filled with different immiscible phases meet at the Taylor cone. Two types of interfacial complexation reactions have been studied: t ...

We investigate the distributed successive refinement (SR) hypothesis testing problem. Bivariate hypothesis H-0 : P-XY against H-1 : PXPY, i.e., test against independence is considered, when a remote sensor sends compressed information about data stream X s ...
After more than a century of research, the mechanisms underlying visual masking are still hotly debated. One key characteristic of masking is that variations in the stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) between the target and the mask can lead to either monotoni ...

The conditional indirect utility of many random utility maximization (RUM) discrete choice models is specified as a sum of an index V depending on observables and an independent random term P. In general, the universe of RUM consistent models is much large ...
We provide an algebraic formalization of connectors in the BIP component framework. A connector relates a set of typed ports. Types are used to describe different modes of synchronization: rendezvous and broadcast, in particular. Connectors on a set of por ...
Au nano- and microstructures such as polyhedral crystals, large single-cryst. nanoplates, hollow trapeziform crystals, holey polyhedra, and dendrites were produced via microwave heating of HAuCl4·4H2O in a variety of ionic liqs. (ILs) in the absence of cap ...
