Nicotine is a very widely used drug of abuse, which exerts a number of neurovegetative behavioural effects by interacting with the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. Using histochemical analysis (NADPH-diaphorase and Fluoro-Jade B dye), the influence of intraperitoneal administration of nicotine on neurons of the hippocampus in 35-day-old male rats of the Wistar strain was studied. At t...

An itinerary scripting language provides a tool to accelerate the development of mobile agent applications. The main purpose of this paper is to discuss research challenges of itinerant mobile agents (ITAG) and describe the migration of ITAG to JADE, the popular FIPA-compliant agent platform. The migration process was based on two major steps: the migration of agent communications and agent tas...

RÉSUMÉ. Cet article présente la conception, la réalisation et l'évaluation de Jade, un environnement pour l'administration autonome d'infrastructures logicelles patrimoniales. Jade est essentiellement composé de deux parties : un canevas pour l'encapsulation des ressources administrées, qui leur donne une interface d'administration uniforme, et un canevas de construction de gestionnaires autono...

This paper deals with design and simulation of the FlexRay protocol for automotive distributed embedded systems using agents. The proposed architecture is modeled as a multiagent system and implemented in the JADE platform following mainly the so-called O-MaSE methodology. Using JADE, We developed an ontology that provides an automatic interpretation of frame fields. Furthermore, this paper pro...

Data from ee annihilation into hadrons collected by the JADE experiment at centre-of-mass energies between 14 GeV and 44 GeV were used to study moments of event shape distributions. The data were compared with Monte Carlo models and with predictions from QCD NLO order calculations. The strong coupling constant measured from the moments is αS(MZ0) = 0.1286 ± 0.0007(stat.) ± 0.0011(exp.) ± 0.0022...
