Resources Annotation, Retrieval and Presentation: a semantic annotation management system

International audienceThis paper addresses the problem of the management of resources metadata. A variety of responses are discussed, and we describe one possible way forward, which uses a semantic annotation management tool. The term 'semantic' describes the ability to create, retrieve, query and navigate knowledgeably about things identified by a Web URI. The support for this semantic tool is RDF, through the integration of Jena, an open-source RDF API provided by HP laboratory. Thanks to RDF capabilities, this tool offers new search features such as hierarchical browsing based on the structure of RDF vocabularies and faceted-browsing using properties lists defined by the end-user. The navigation inside annotations uses intuitive modes such as left/right and backward/forward movements. Presentation is controlled by the user using a subset of the Fresnel language to specify how RDF graphs are presented. This work is ongoing; certain open issues are raised

Integrating HLA-Based Distributed Simulation for Management Science and BPMN

Modeling and Simulation are becoming more and more complex, making their design very challenging. Modeling and Simulation of complex systems requires simultaneous consideration of several points of view and the study of these systems needs skills belonging to different scientific fields. In Distributed Simulation domain, IEEE 1516-2010 - High Level Architecture (HLA) is one of the most used standard. However, it does not provide any official graphical language for defining distributed simulation behaviors. Business Process Model and Notation standard could be an interesting solution for defining HLA execution scenario. This paper present application experiment applied to solar power plant. Our proposition consists in restrict the HLA execution process in order to use one federate as Master, controlling the others as Slaves. This allows us to generate a component responsible for the simulation execution process with parsing a Business Process Model and Notation diagram. In this paper, we present an application of this concept

Including in hla federation functional mokup units for supporting interoperability and rensability in distributed simulation.

Modeling and Simulation is attempting to tackle more and more complexsystems, which makes their design highly challenging. Complex systems’ Modeling and Simulation (M&S) require the consideration of several simultaneouspoints of view and involve skills from different scientificand technicalfields. Distributed Simulation domainanswer the question of coupling and running together heterogeneous components, e.g. IEEE 1516-2010 -High Level Architecture is one of the mostused standard. Also, Functional Mockup Interface provide standard designedfor the coupling of simulation tools (simulator coupling, tool coupling), and coupling with subsystem models, which have been exported by their simulators together with its solversas runnable code.In this paper, we aim to provide bridge between HLA and FMI standard in order to couple those technologie

Acquisition of Flucytosine, Azole, and Caspofungin Resistance in Candida glabrata Bloodstream Isolates Serially Obtained from a Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Recipient ▿ †

We describe the acquisition of flucytosine, azole, and caspofungin resistance in sequential Candida glabrata bloodstream isolates collected from a bone marrow transplant patient with clinical failure. Point mutations in C. glabrata FUR1 (CgFUR1) and CgFKS2 and overexpression of CgCDR1 and CgCDR2 were observed in resistant isolates

Apprentissage par projets à l'école primaire avec les filles qui. . .

International audienceLe dispositif des lles qui.. . est un projet de communauté éducative. Son but est de montrer l'exemple des sciences numériques au féminin et de favoriser, à l'école élémentaire, la pratique du numérique et de la programmation en Scratch. Deux dispositifs nationaux, l'AS-TEP (Education Nationale) et Savanturiers-École de la recherche (CRI Paris), et un dispositif du Finistère, Patrimoine local 2.0, fournissent le cadre des interventions : les lles qui.. . animent des séquences d'ap-prentissage de scratch et des outils numériques dans les écoles primaires et accompagnent des projets Savanturiers d'éducation par la recherche ou des projets de mise en valeur numérique du patrimoine local
