___________________________________________________________________________________________ Phonetic transcription at fingertips, ergonomics keyboards and fonts The aim is to promote ergonomic tools to facilitate phonetic transcriptions for applications using these transcriptions. For example corpora making for non automatised speech recognition and educational uses in which phonetic automatic ...

The increasing complexity of information systems (ubiquitous systems, open enterprises, etc.) calls for the introduction of always new modeling languages. However, the development of new domain-specific languages makes the question about their quality, as well as the quality of the produced models, an important issue for the modeling of information systems. This article deals with this issue by...

The application of barium f&:e (BaFelZO19; BaF) in the magnetic media industry requires materials with strict control of homogeneity, morphology and magnetic properties resulting from their preparation and pretreatment. Here the use of water-in-oil microemulsions for the synthesis of nanoparticles of BaF is considered. Two microen~ulsions (containmg an aqueous phase, cetyltrimethylammonium brom...

arcolepsy is a chronic, neurologic sleep disorder resulting from the dysregulation of sleep-wake cyN cles. Narcoleptic patients experience excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, sleep paralysis, and hypnagogic hallucinations. Narcolepsy is about as prevalent as multiple sclerosis, and can be as disabling in its consequences, yet it is underrecognized and underdiagnosed. Because (narcoleptic) ...

We are interested in creating an automated or semi-automated system with the capability of taking a set of radar imagery, collection parameters and a priori map and other tactical data, and producing likely interpretations of the possible military situa­ tions given the available evidence. This paper is concerned with the problem of the interpretation and computation of certainty or belief in t...

________________________________________________________________________________________________________ F2/F3 of voiced plosives and F1/F2 of vowel in VCV Sequences in Children with a Cleft Palate-An acoustic Study The aim of this acoustic study is to examine place of articulation during the production of voiced plosives by children with a cleft palate. The data are compared with those obtaine...

Business processes are continually subject to changes which must be supported by process models and systems that implement them. This paper deals with the adaptability of process models obeying to specific architectures of Inter-Organizational Workflow (IOWF) such as the “subcontracting” and the “chained execution”. In order to obtain process models easily adaptable, we first propose cooperatio...

ETL process (Extracting, Transforming, Loading) is responsible for extracting data from heterogeneous sources, transforming and finally loading them into a data warehouse. New technologies, particularly Internet and Web 2.0, generating data at an increasing rate, put the information systems (IS) face to the challenge of Big Data. These data are characterized by, in addition to their excessive s...

Material Handling Equipment (MHE) is widely used to move packaged goods from manufacturing to warehousing, storage, transportation, in both warehouses and distribution centers to retail stores. Moving product between facilities is done by different types of equipment ranging from manually pushed carts to automated vehi­ cles. A considerable amount of research has been conducted to eval­ uate th...
