Évaluation des métadonnées extraites par ExifTool aux fins de création d'une fiche LOM

Tiré de l'écran-titre (visionné le 27 juin 2017).Ces travaux font suite au travail de débroussaillage réalisé par Vincent François, de WebConforme, pour identifier les métadonnées présentes dans les documents, et pouvant être extraites par Alfresco. Nous avions relevé qu’Alfresco sélectionnait une partie des métadonnées détectées par l’outil ExifTool 1 de Phil Harvey, et qu’il serait pertinent de voir si un emploi direct d’ExifTool nous permettrait de récupérer plus de métadonnées, et d’en tirer une fiche LOM. Nous nous sommes donc concentrés sur les métadonnées contenues dans LOM

Project Testbed: Argument Mapping and Deliberation Analytics

One key goal of the Catalyst project was to design metrics that could capture and represent aspects of the conversation’s structural quality, to assist harvesters and moderators. Many such metrics, alerts and visualizations were developed in the course of the project, but initial user testing has shown that users find it difficult to interpret abstract signals. Following that, we have both introduced new analytics that we felt could be more directly useful, and improved the representation of existing ones. We evaluated their usefulness in a smaller conversation and in experimental settings

Arrimage avec learning resource metadata initiative (LRMI)

Tiré de l'écran-titre (visionné le 27 juin 2017).Parmi ses travaux sur les métadonnées pour les ressources d’enseignement et d’apprentissage (RÉA), le GTN-Québec a misé sur une transition du standard IEEE 1484.12.1–2002 (LOM) vers la norme ISO 19788 (MLR). Nous observons l’émergence de normes concurrentes pour les métadonnées de RÉA, parmi lesquelles, le standard LRMI, soutenu par l’initiative Dublin Core et plusieurs acteurs importants de l’industrie informatique dont Microsoft et Google. Nous avons fait une étude sur les cas d’adoption de cette norme, dans le but de déterminer s’il serait stratégique de développer des outils appropriés pour l’importation, le traitement et l’exportation de métadonnées suivant cette norme. Notre étude montre une adoption limitée, visant surtout l’optimisation pour les moteurs de recherche. Il demeure possible que cet objectif puisse motiver une adoption future du standard et nous recommandons de continuer à observer l’évolution des données LRMI

The impact of incongruent vs. congruent food brand pairings

The purpose of this study is to empirically examine the effect of congruity within a food brand constellation on consumer attitudes, positive electronic word-of mouth, and willingness to pass along via social media. The empirical context focuses on food brands that tend to be traditionally consumed while watching sport. The study of congruity within brand constellations is important as food companies spend large sums of money on endorsers in their message promotions. After watching a short video on baseball, a sample of 250 students was shown two fake food brands stimuli ads, one featuring a congruent pairing (chips and soda) and the other, incongruent (chips and kale smoothie). The findings suggest that congruent pairings lead to better positive brand attitudes and positive word-of-mouth towards the combined brand and that incongruent pairings incur more pass-along on social media.Advertisin

Towards an unstable hook : the evolution of stock market integration since 1913

We examine equity market integration for 17 countries from 1913-2018. We use network analysis to measure the evolution of global stock market integration as well as stock market integration between and across countries. The empirical results suggest that long-run stock market integration looks like an unstable hook. Equity market integration first peaked in 1913 during the first era of globalization (1870-1913) when unfettered markets ruled the day. Integration declined over the next 60 years as countries experienced the Great Depression and shunned international capital markets. The end of the Bretton Woods system in the early 1970s ushered in the second period of globalization. Our empirical analysis suggests that stock market integration in the recent period of globalization has surpassed the first era of globalization in the last 10 years and currently has the highest level of equity market integration and network instability in world history

Evaluation of intersectoral collaborations : "Relevailles" and intersectoral collaborations. Brief Report.

HIGHLIGHTS • In 3 of the 4 cases, the key actor in the collaborative network was the OCF coordinator/liaison officer. • All the networks were vulnerable to the departure of a key actor. • Collaborative networks did not include any perinatal assistants. • 35 of the 37 HSSE actors involved in collaborative networks belonged to a local community services centre (CLSC), even when there was a birthing hospital or birthing centre in the HSSE. • Five determinants contributed to or constrained intersectoral collaborations between OCFs and HSSEs. • Sufficiency of resources, knowledge of the partner organization, and complementarity/flexibility in the delivery of services were determinants of collaborations. • Six modes of OCF/HSSE collaboration were identified. • There are few formal mechanisms for collaboration between organizations. • Disagreements/misunderstandings on the mechanisms for sharing information about families occurred between organizations and even within organizations. • Some parents perceived links between OCFs and CLSCs as falling into two modes of collaboration, namely 1) activating the request/recourse to partner organization services and 2) coordinating the services provided to families

Third generation mobile communications : capacity of a time-division duplex code-division multiple access cellular system

This thesis describes the work done in evaluating the capacity of a multi-service third generation (3G) wireless communication system based on the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UNITS). More specifically, the study presented in these pages examines the Time Division Duplex (TDD) paradigm supported by the 3G Partnership Project (3GPP).The goal is to establish the probability that a new connection attempt be successful as a function of the instantaneous load on the network. The sought capacity is evaluated with the help of an analytical model and a simulation tool. Both tools used a so-called system-level approach. The model and the simulator were developed based on 3GPP's standard and available data from link-level simulations.Some of the significant results presented are: (1) A maximum of around 7 to 9 orthogonal codes can be used per timeslot. (2) A UMTS TDD CDMA system should be used in pico- and micro-cellular environments in order to support efficient data transmissions. (3) The multicode interference is often wrongfully neglected in capacity studies. (4) Capacity is downlink interference-limited, even with a modest MUD efficiency
