Rapport de la mission data et territoires
La mission s’est en premier lieu attachée à poser le diagnostic de la situation actuelle en matière d’utilisation des données par les acteurs publics locaux. Cette situation est avant
tout caractérisée par une maturité croissante des territoires. Ainsi, le faible pourcentage de collectivités (16 %) respectant l’obligation d’ouverture des données ne doit pas masquer le fait qu’une dynamique est engagée partout en France. Ce niveau de maturité est, sans surprise, variable selon la taille des collectivités. Mais la mission a eu à connaître, lors des auditions, de nombreux exemples d’initiatives sur des territoires de toutes tailles. Ainsi, pour nombre d’élus de collectivités interrogés par la mission, la question principale est davantage de savoir comment mieux accéder aux données et les utiliser pour l’action
publique territoriale, plutôt que de savoir si c’est opportun de le faire
Introduction: Debates on Experience and Empiricism in Nineteenth Century France
The lasting effects of the debate over canon-formation during the 1980s affected the whole field of Humanities, which became increasingly engaged in interrogating the origin and function of the Western canon (Gorak 1991; Searle 1990). In philosophy, a great deal of criticism was, as a result, directed at the traditional narrative of seventeenth-and eighteenth-century philosophies—a critique informed by postcolonialism (Park 2013) as well as feminist historiography (Shapiro 2016). D. F. Norton (1981), L. Loeb (1981) and many others1 attempted to demonstrate the weaknesses of the tripartite division between rationalism, empiricism and critical philosophy.2 As time went on, symptoms of dissatisfaction with what has been called the “standard narrative” ( Vanzo 2013) and the “epistemological par-adigm” (Haakonssen 2004, 2006) only increased. Indeed, at present, a consensus has been reached that the narrative of the antagonism between “Continental rationalism” and “British empiricism”, and the consequent Aufhebung provided by “German critical philosophy,” has been unable to make sense of the complexity, variety and dynamics of early modern.Fil: Antoine-Mahut, Delphine.

Disruptive innovation in Financial Technology : case study of three FinTech areas and reactions of Luxembourgish retail banks
In modern society, and especially after the recent crisis in the European area, there have been major changes in the functioning of the financial services sector. Developing new services that meet consumer needs of convenience, security, trust and design seem to be more important than ever. As the banking and finance industry might have lost significant legitimacy due to their failures in the past, FinTech, also known as financial technology, is providing an alternative to classical retail banking as we know it because they use new innovative technologies to rethink the banking services offered to personal and commercial consumers across the globe. The traditional banking industry is facing important decisions they have to make, in the light of the newly arisen alternatives from FinTech companies and startups. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze disruptive innovation in Financial Technology using a case study of three specific areas, namely Crowdfunding, Robo-Advisory and Mobile Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Payments. We evaluated whether these three areas can be considered as disruptive innovations and how the Luxembourgish retail banks are reacting to these innovations. Comparing these reactions with a theoretical framework, we also analyzed if a theoretical pattern is observable. We did so by using Christensen’s theory of disruptive innovations and apply it to the three FinTech areas in a case study. Then, we applied an incumbent reaction framework of Charitou & Markides (2003) and compared it to the reaction of Luxembourgish retail banks, using the data we collected from industry experts in exploratory qualitative interviews.Master [120] en Ingénieur de gestion, Université catholique de Louvain, 2017Master [120] en sciences de gestion, Université catholique de Louvain, 2017La diffusion de ce mémoire n'est pas autorisée par l'institutio
Immobilisation and Epidural Anaesthesia in a Eurasian Lynx (Lynx lynx) Undergoing Pelvic Limb Orthopaedic Surgery.
peer reviewedImmobilisation and anaesthesia of wild felids may be complex and potentially dangerous events, making it difficult to implement more advanced anaesthetic techniques such as neuraxial anaesthesia. A Eurasian lynx was referred for femur fracture repair after it was seen with lameness of the left pelvic limb sustained in its natural environment. The animal was remotely darted using a combination of ketamine (5 mg/kg) and xylazine (5 mg/kg) intramuscularly. Once immobilised, the lynx was transported to the veterinary hospital in a restraining cage. After induction and endotracheal intubation, pelvic limb radiographs confirmed a closed, comminuted fracture of the left femur that required open reduction and internal stabilisation. A sacrococcygeal epidural was performed before surgery using lidocaine (2 mg/kg) and morphine (0.1 mg/kg) to complement the ketamine-xylazine-isoflurane anaesthesia, which allows a low-end-tidal isoflurane concentration. Clinical signs were continuously monitored and remained stable during the entire procedure, with the exception of a temperature that decreased to 35.8°C. No intraoperative analgesic rescues were necessary. Recovery was smooth and uneventful. The lynx showed no signs of motor weakness after surgery or other side effects related to the anaesthetic procedure. The successful management of this surgical case suggests that the described anaesthetic protocol could be recommended in orthopaedic procedures of the pelvic limbs in wild Felidae
Première esquisse d’une typologie des meules hydrauliques antiques en Gaule
International audienceDepuis la publication des moulins antiques d’Avenches (Castella 1994) et la mise en évidence de meules de moulins hydrauliques antiques à forte conicité, les études régionales commencent à se généraliser, à l’image de celles conduites dans le Languedoc (Longepierre 2007) ou les Pays-de-la-Loire (Polinski 2009). Ce type de meules, le plus souvent en roches volcaniques, est maintenant reconnu sur l’ensemble du territoire français et de la Suisse, avec parfois quelques variantes typologiques régionales. Le but de cette présentation commune, est de tenter de dresser une première carte de ce type d’objet, d’en définir les caractéristiques et d’évaluer d’éventuelles évolutions chronologiques ou régionales
