Architecture de réseaux appliquéeà la visite interactive sur mobile d?un musée

L?arrivée de nouvelles technologies dans les réseaux de communication, permet de concevoir de nouvelles applications mieux adaptées aux besoins culturels et industriels. Dans le contexte de la visite d?un musée, cet article décrit tout d?abord l?architecture du réseau permettant de transporter les informations à très haut débit. Cette architecture de réseaux se base sur les technologies sans fil et optique offrant un haut débit de l?ordre de quelques gigabits par seconde. Ensuite, nous présentons une application de visite interactive suivant un parcours dynamique installée sur un smartphone sous Android. L?implémentation de cette application est basée sur une étude des algorithmes concernés. Cette étude nous a permis de sélectionner l?algorithme NN qui est adapté à un guidage interactif en fonction de critères liés aux souhaits du visiteur

New records of phytoseiid mites (Acari: Mesostigmata) from Madeira Island

International audienceMadeira is the largest of the four islands constituting Madeira Archipelago in the North Atlantic Ocean. It is located at 400 km from the Northern Canary Islands, at 500 km from Morocco and between 900 and 1000 km from South Portugal and Spain. So far, nineteen species of the mite family Phytoseiidae had been reported from this island. We report in this paper the results of a survey conducted in May 2019 in Madeira Island, in which 15 species have been found, six being new for the Island fauna

Infrared spectroscopy of aniline (C6H5NH2) and its cation in a cryogenic argon matrix

International audienceInfrared absorption spectra of aniline, trapped in a low-temperature 5 K argon matrix, have been obtained in the spectral region from 500 to 4000 cm−1. The aniline cation C6H7N+, was formed inside the matrix by UV laser irradiation. We report the first IR absorption spectroscopy of this cation in an argon matrix: five fundamental vibrational bands were observed

Cup-shaped and pocular (Denmark <i>et al</i>., 1999), with a cervix 12 long and 2 wide, with an atrium well differentiated.</p> <p> <b>Etymology</b>. The name “ thymeleae ” refers to the genus of the host plant (Thymelea) on which the new species was found.</p> <p> <b>Remarks</b>. This species is similar to <i>Neoseiulus leucophaeus</i> Athias-Henriot as both lack setae <i>JV3</i> and <i>ZV3</i>, both have similar shape of spermathecae, chaetotaxy of genu II and genu III, and the metapodal plates shape and lengths. <i>Neoseiulus leucophaeus</i> was found in Algeria on <i>Thymelaea hirsuta</i> and reported afterwards in Greece (Stathakis & Papadoulis, 2012; Stathakis <i>et al</i>., 2013) and Israel (Swirski & Amitai, 1997b) on the same plant. <i>Neoseiulus thymeleae</i> is also here reported from the same plant genus. However, <i>N</i>. <i>thymeleae</i> differs from <i>N</i>. <i>leucophaeus</i> in the length of various setae, especially <i>Z4</i> and <i>Z5</i> (Table 3), in the absence of macrosetae on the length IV, in the chelicera dentition (two teeth on the movable digit instead of one for <i>N</i>. <i>leucophaeus</i>).</p> <p> <i>N. thymeleae</i> n. sp. Types of <i>N. leucophaeus</i> This species has <i>JV3</i> and <i>ZV3</i> absent. The absence of these two setae within the sub-family Amblyseiinae is observed in 29 other species (<i>Amblyseius koumacensis</i> Schicha, <i>Amblyseius paucisetosus</i> McMurtry & Moraes, <i>Asperoseius lagunensis</i> Corpuz-Raros, <i>Afroseiulus robertsi</i> (Baker) and all the species of the genera <i>Eharius</i>, <i>Paraamblyseius</i> and <i>Phytoscutus</i>). It is interesting to note that <i>Neoseiulus thymeleae</i> shares also other similar (convergent) features with the species of the genus <i>Eharius</i>. First, the species of the genus <i>Eharius</i> are mainly reported from the southern part of the Mediterranean basin. Second, <i>Eharius</i> species are small and strait and have the dorsum with striation as <i>Neoseiulus thymeleae</i>.</p>Published as part of <i>Tixier, Marie-Stephane, Allam, Latifa, Douin, Martial & Kreiter, Serge, 2016, Phytoseiidae (Acari: Mesostigmata) of Morocco: new records, descriptions of five new species, re-descriptions of two species, and key for identification, pp. 501-551 in Zootaxa 4067 (5)</i> on pages 529-531, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4067.5.1, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/270636">http://zenodo.org/record/270636</a&gt
