Gestion des connaissancesLa gestion des connaissances (en anglais knowledge management) est une démarche managériale pluridisciplinaire qui regroupe l'ensemble des initiatives, des méthodes et des techniques permettant de percevoir, identifier, analyser, organiser, mémoriser, partager les connaissances des membres d'une organisation – les savoirs créés par l'entreprise elle-même (marketing, recherche et développement) ou acquis de l'extérieur (intelligence économique) – en vue d'atteindre un objectif fixé. Nous sommes submergés d'informations.
Metamaterial antennaMetamaterial antennas are a class of antennas which use metamaterials to increase performance of miniaturized (electrically small) antenna systems. Their purpose, as with any electromagnetic antenna, is to launch energy into free space. However, this class of antenna incorporates metamaterials, which are materials engineered with novel, often microscopic, structures to produce unusual physical properties. Antenna designs incorporating metamaterials can step-up the antenna's radiated power.
Diffractionthumb|Phénomène d'interférences dû à la diffraction d'une onde à travers deux ouvertures. La diffraction est le comportement des ondes lorsqu'elles rencontrent un obstacle ou une ouverture ; le phénomène peut être interprété par la diffusion d’une onde par les points de l'objet. La diffraction se manifeste par des phénomènes d'interférence. La diffraction s’observe avec la lumière, mais de manière générale avec toutes les ondes : le son, les vagues, les ondes radio, Elle permet de mettre en évidence le caractère ondulatoire d'un phénomène et même de corps matériels tels que des électrons, neutrons, atomes froids.
Computational engineeringComputational Engineering is an emerging discipline that deals with the development and application of computational models for engineering, known as Computational Engineering Models or CEM. At this time, various different approaches are summarized under the term Computational Engineering, including using computational geometry and virtual design for engineering tasks, often coupled with a simulation-driven approach In Computational Engineering, algorithms solve mathematical and logical models that describe engineering challenges, sometimes coupled with some aspect of AI, specifically Reinforcement Learning.
Definitions of knowledgeDefinitions of knowledge try to determine the essential features of knowledge. Closely related terms are conception of knowledge, theory of knowledge, and analysis of knowledge. Some general features of knowledge are widely accepted among philosophers, for example, that it constitutes a cognitive success or an epistemic contact with reality and that propositional knowledge involves true belief. Most definitions of knowledge in analytic philosophy focus on propositional knowledge or knowledge-that, as in knowing that Dave is at home, in contrast to knowledge-how (know-how) expressing practical competence.
Knowledge marketA knowledge market is a mechanism for distributing knowledge resources. There are two views on knowledge and how knowledge markets can function. One view uses a legal construct of intellectual property to make knowledge a typical scarce resource, so the traditional commodity market mechanism can be applied directly to distribute it. An alternative model is based on treating knowledge as a public good and hence encouraging free sharing of knowledge. This is often referred to as attention economy.
Procedural knowledgeProcedural knowledge (also known as knowing-how, and sometimes referred to as practical knowledge, imperative knowledge, or performative knowledge) is the knowledge exercised in the performance of some task. Unlike descriptive knowledge (also known as declarative knowledge, propositional knowledge or "knowing-that"), which involves knowledge of specific facts or propositions (e.g. "I know that snow is white"), procedural knowledge involves one's ability to do something (e.g. "I know how to change a flat tire").
Compatibilité électromagnétiqueLa compatibilité électromagnétique ou CEM (en anglais, electromagnetic compatibility ou EMC) est l'aptitude d'un appareil ou d'un système électrique ou électronique, à fonctionner correctement dans l'environnement électromagnétique pour lequel l'appareil est conçu, sans produire lui-même des perturbations électromagnétiques que ne peuvent supporter les autres appareils de son environnement.
Diffraction-limited systemIn optics, any optical instrument or system a microscope, telescope, or camera has a principal limit to its resolution due to the physics of diffraction. An optical instrument is said to be diffraction-limited if it has reached this limit of resolution performance. Other factors may affect an optical system's performance, such as lens imperfections or aberrations, but these are caused by errors in the manufacture or calculation of a lens, whereas the diffraction limit is the maximum resolution possible for a theoretically perfect, or ideal, optical system.
Diffraction de FraunhoferEn optique et électromagnétisme, la 'diffraction de Fraunhofer, encore nommée diffraction en champ lointain' ou approximation de Fraunhofer, est l'observation en champ lointain de la figure de diffraction par un objet diffractant. Cette observation peut aussi se faire dans le plan focal image d'une lentille convergente. Elle s'oppose à la diffraction de Fresnel qui décrit le même phénomène de diffraction mais en champ proche.
