La Coupole et autres poèmes

International audienceEdition critique, traduction, des poèmes de l'artiste et écrivain Jim Dine, depuis le début de sa carrière jusqu'à 2017. En 1917, Apollinaire écrivait : « Poésie et création ne sont qu’une même chose ; on ne doit appeler poète que celui qui invente, celui qui crée, dans la mesure où l’homme peut créer. Le poète est celui qui découvre de nouvelles joies, fussent-elles pénibles à supporter. » Depuis les années soixante, l’artiste Jim Dine va sans cesse à la découverte, en peintre comme en poète. Si ses toiles, dessins, estampes et sculptures se trouvent dans les plus grands musées, son œuvre écrite est moins connue. Son écriture poétique est pourtant essentielle à son travail d’artiste, et ses poèmes sont autant d’explorations et de poursuites de ce qu’Apollinaire appelait il y a un siècle « l’esprit nouveau ». En 2017, Jim Dine publie « La Coupole et autres poèmes » : ce volume rassemble, dans une édition bilingue, une partie substantielle de sa production poétique depuis le début de sa carrière d’artiste.Artiste plasticien de renommée internationale, Jim Dine s’est fait connaître en participant à des happenings à New York en 1959 et 1960. Il écrit, publie et lit en public de la poésie depuis aussi longtemps qu’il réalise des œuvres d’art. Un des pionniers du pop art, Jim Dine a rendu la peinture plus accessible en intégrant à ses toiles des objets du quotidien et en y dessinant des mots et des phrases. L’utilisation du texte dans sa peinture est une extension naturelle de sa pratique d’écriture. Jim Dine a réalisé de nombreuse œuvres picturales, des collages, des sculptures, des dessins et des estampes. Il est par ailleurs l’auteur de nombreux livres de poésie. Il vit à Paris et Walla Walla (État de Washington)

Samsung Electronics

Samsung Electronics Corporation is a fast growing and expanding company. Since its foundation in 1969, it was constantly exploring new markets and gaining market share. It became fast a respectable competitor even for the giants in the market, such as Intel, IBM, Motorola and Sony. Producing high quality at a low cost in Korea and China, Samsung Electronics scores high in the comparison between quality and price. [Jl] [J2] Using successful strategies, including for example Economy of Scale and Diversification, Samsung Electronics became the second fast growing company of that kind in the world (after Safeway), is market leader in semiconductor manufacturing such as DRAM and SRAM C\u27[G in flash memoryl and color monitors, and #2 in manufacturing micro wave ovens, just to claim a few. To make this more clear with a few numbers, the sales growth in the fiscal year reached 103.0%, the net income growth even a percentage of as much as 164.0%. [Jl] This paper is supposed to present the strategies which are understood to be responsive for the astonishingly positive and consistent development of Samsung Electronics. It covers an overview of Samsung Electronics\u27 history to show the development to the state of the art, a discussion of different strategies since 1993 which made the company that successful in the last few years, focusing on product, manufacturing and technology growth, R&D and venture investments, the management style, international brand management, the high end focus in the digital era and the reaction on the financial crisis in Asia. A short SWOT -analysis, demonstrates the company\u27s biggest challenges at the time. In the end, a conclusion will II \u27 evaluate the findings of the content

DTNA CCI Project Selection Analyzer

As today’s banks collapse and stress is added to the global economies, it is getting harder for companies to borrow money, therefore it is more important then ever for decision makers to ensure extra capital, resources and durations in projects are minimized. This projects models basic concepts of OR with limited training in linear programming to solve a real world problem. The team worked with a decision maker at Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) to find a way to evaluate a selection of cost reduction projects and using simulation software, Crystal Ball, to analyze the uncertain values used in the model to ensure probability of results

Virtual Teams and Projects: Issues of the 21st Century

The relative success or failure of a virtual team depends on many variables. In this paper we survey four key dimensions: overcoming barriers to management, managing team dynamics, creating trust, and leveraging technology to support the team infrastructure. Typical managerial barriers include temporal, geographic, and cross-cultural factors. Dynamic group factors include overcoming a lack of social proximity, creating a framework for establishing trust, and the importance of member autonomy. The dimension of trust encompasses the inherent uncertainty of non-proximal, virtual communications. This uncertainty makes the future behaviors of group members difficult to predict and it impedes group cohesion. Finally, the common thread of information and communication technologies as tools for removing managerial barriers, stimulating group dynamics, and promoting trust are discussed

Management and Engineering Challenges of Converting From 200mm to 300 mm Wafer Processing in the Electronic Microchip Fabrication Industry

The largest Engineering Management challenge in the conversion from 200mm to 300mm wafer processing no longer lies within the cleanrooms of the fab plants themselves. Instead, the challenges are in establishing common interface standards between multiple vendors wafer handling, transportation and processing machinery. Especially between the FOUP (Front Opening Unified Pod) and processing machinery. In addition the Engineering Manager must integrate new designs for the buildings, material supply and infrastructure required into an optimum operating model

Multiancestry association study identifies new asthma risk loci that colocalize with immune-cell enhancer marks.

We examined common variation in asthma risk by conducting a meta-analysis of worldwide asthma genome-wide association studies (23,948 asthma cases, 118,538 controls) of individuals from ethnically diverse populations. We identified five new asthma loci, found two new associations at two known asthma loci, established asthma associations at two loci previously implicated in the comorbidity of asthma plus hay fever, and confirmed nine known loci. Investigation of pleiotropy showed large overlaps in genetic variants with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The enrichment in enhancer marks at asthma risk loci, especially in immune cells, suggested a major role of these loci in the regulation of immunologically related mechanisms
