Les usages du précédent algérien à Westminster pendant le conflit nord-irlandais (1968-1998)
La période des Troubles en Irlande du Nord a vu l’engagement d’un nombre substantiel d’universitaires dans les débats afférents aux nombreuses analogies établies avec le précédent algérien. Que ce soit Hugh Roberts ou ses contradicteurs, tous, malgré leurs divergences interprétatives, s’accordent à utiliser le terme générique « l’analogie algérienne », qui, selon eux, ne se définit que par le soutien qu’elle apporte à l’idée selon laquelle une solution de type gaullien, autrement dit un retrait des troupes britanniques et l’abandon des loyalistes à leur sort, serait inéluctable en Irlande du Nord. C’est d’ailleurs cette définition que retiennent les chercheurs ayant entrepris d’explorer les contours de cette analogie, à l’instar d’Adrian Guelke et de Frank Wright. Nonobstant son bien-fondé, leur définition semble assez monolithique, en ce qu’elle tend à uniformiser la teneur des discours de toutes les personnes ayant évoqué le précédent algérien. Il s’agit donc, dans cet article, non pas tant de frapper de nullité la définition proposée par Roberts, Wright et Guelke, que de la nuancer et de l’affiner, en analysant les débats parlementaires à Westminster, qui donnent à voir les usages multiples des analogies entre l’Irlande du Nord et l’Algérie française, dont les incidences s’étendent bien au-delà des seuls discours produits par les défenseurs d’un désengagement britannique d’Irlande du Nord.During Troubles in Northern Ireland, a substantial number of academics took part in the debates relating to the many analogies drawn between the Irish and Algerian experiences. Hugh Roberts and his opponents, notwithstanding their interpretative divergences, agreed to use the generic term “the Algerian analogy”, which, according to them, refers to the idea that a Gaullist solution, in other words a withdrawal of British troops and the abandonment of loyalists to their fate, would be inevitable in Northern Ireland. This is also the definition favoured by such scholars as Adrian Guelke and Frank Wright. Despite its merits, their definition seems quite monolithic, in that it tends to overlook the various perspectives of the numerous people who mentioned the Algerian precedent between the late 1960s and the 1990s. The purpose of this article is thus not so much to invalidate the definition proposed by Roberts, Wright and Guelke, as to qualify and refine it, in light of the parliamentary debates that took place at Westminster. The latter reveal the multiple ways in which the analogies between Northern Ireland and French Algeria were used, not least because their occurrences extend well beyond the discourse produced by the advocates of British disengagement from Northern Ireland
Patrick Anderson, Rewriting the Troubles. War and Propaganda, Ireland and Algeria
Alors que les Troubles en Irlande du Nord (1968-1998) continuent de faire l’objet de récits divergents, cet ouvrage de Patrick Anderson a pour ambition de mettre au jour la version partielle et partiale qu’en donnait la presse britannique au moment des faits. Pour ce faire, Anderson adopte un angle d’approche original : il fait appel, en guise de cadre théorique, au « modèle de propagande » conceptualisé par Noam Chomsky, en même temps qu’il compare la couverture de ce conflit avec celle de ..

Mirror images, cross-representations and coloniality : a history of (anti-)analogies between the Anglo-Irish and Franco-Algerian conflicts, 1830-1998
Les relations anglo-irlandaises et franco-algériennes sont-elles comparables ? De nos jours, on serait tenté de répondre instinctivement par la négative. Pourtant, d'un point de vue historique, des (anti-)analogies entre les conflits qui opposent Britanniques et Irlandais d'une part, et Français et Algériens d'autre part, ont fait florès presque tout au long de la période qui s'étend de l'expédition d'Alger en 1830 jusqu'à la signature de l'Accord du Vendredi Saint en 1998. En l'absence de travaux proposant une vue d'ensemble sur ces (anti-)analogies, cette thèse entreprend de combler une lacune historiographique, en retraçant leur histoire. Il s'agit donc d'analyser comment Français et Algériens perçoivent le conflit anglo-irlandais, s'en inspirent, le représentent, et s'identifient à ses protagonistes ; et, inversement, comment Britanniques et Irlandais perçoivent leur propre histoire commune au miroir du conflit franco-algérien. En adoptant une approche transnationale et diachronique, nous entendons, plus précisément, démontrer à la fois que les (anti-)analogies précitées se caractérisent par leur pluralité, et qu'elles sont prescrites ou proscrites au gré non seulement des sensibilités politiques et idéologiques de chacun, mais aussi des changements de conjoncture à l’œuvre au cours des trois grands moments soumis à analyse : la conquête de l'Algérie (1830-1902), l'ère de la décolonisation (1921-1962), et les Troubles nord-irlandais (1968-1998). De par les thèmes qui y sont traités, cette thèse se veut une contribution aux recherches existantes sur la colonialité de l'Irlande et s'inscrit, à ce titre, dans le domaine de la civilisation britannique et irlandaise.Can Anglo-Irish and Franco-Algerian relations be compared? A negative answer would nowadays instinctively spring to mind. Yet, from a historical perspective, (anti-)analogies between the conflicts that opposed the French and the Algerians on the one hand, and the British and the Irish on the other, flourished almost throughout the period spanning from the French expedition against Algiers in 1830 to the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998. This dissertation undertakes to make up for the absence of academic overviews of those (anti-)analogies, by retracing their history. Thus, its purpose is to analyse how the French and the Algerians perceived the Anglo-Irish conflict, drew inspiration from it, represented it, and identified with its protagonists; and, conversely, how the British and the Irish perceived their own shared history through the mirror of the Franco-Algerian conflict.By adopting a transnational and diachronic approach, our aim is, more specifically, to demonstrate both that the aforementioned (anti-)analogies are characterised by their plurality, and that they are prescribed or proscribed in accordance not only with people's political and ideological inclinations, but also with the changing circumstances during the course of the three historical moments under study: the conquest of Algeria (1830-1902), the era of decolonisation (1921-1962), and the Troubles in Northern Ireland (1968-1998). Given the very themes it deals with, this dissertation is intended to be a contribution to existing scholarship on the coloniality of Ireland and, as such, falls within the fields of British and Irish studies
The Analysis of Errors In Inflectional Morphemes Produced by The Academic Writing and Presentation Class Students of The English Department of Airlangga University
This study is about the Analysis of Errors in Inflectional Morphemes produced by the Academic Writing and Presentation Class students of the English Department of Airlangga University. The focus of this study is to investigate the occurrence of errors particularly in inflectional morphemes, to find out the types of errors and the most occurrence errors in inflectional morphemes produced by the Academic Writing and Presentation class students of the English Department of Airlangga University. In this study, the researcher uses Ellis’ theory about error analysis. According to Ellis, the procedures of analyzing errors consist of identification, description, and explanation of errors. In order to classify the types of inflectional morphemes, the researcher uses Katamba’s theory and to classify the types of errors, the researcher uses Dulay, Burt, and Krashen’s theory. First, the researcher identifies the errors. Second, he classifies the errors into certain types of inflectional morphemes and errors based on Katamba’s and Dulay, Burt, and Krashen’s theories. Katamba divided inflectional morphemes into seven types; plural, genitive, agreement, present-participle, past-participle, comparative, and superlative morphemes; while Dulay, Burt, and Krashen divided errors into five types; omission, addition, overgeneralization, misformation and misordering. Finally, he describes and explains these types of errors that are produced by the students of Academic Presentation and Writing Class of the English Department of Airlangga University. After doing the analysis, the researcher finds 265 errors in inflectional morphemes. The most frequent error is agreement morpheme (129
errors or 48.68%) that consists of 88 errors in omission, 26 errors in addition, and 15 errors in misformation. The second most frequent error is plural morpheme (94 errors or 35.47%) and the third most frequent error is genitive morpheme (38 errors or 14.34%)
Application of Communication Systems in Biomedical Engineering
Picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) in biomedical engineering consist of image and data acquisition, storage, and display subsystems integrated by various digital networks. The standard (DICOM 3) is applicable to a networked or an off-line media environment. It allows development and expansion of PACS system. This Standard has been developed with an emphasis on diagnostic medical imaging as practiced in radiology, cardiology and related disciplines. Also the compression methods suitable for image processing are presented in this article. The compression is often realized by reduction of irrelevance or redundancy. There are described lossless and lossy compression methods which can be used for compression of images in biomedical applications and comparison of these methods based on fidelity criteria
