This book was released on 1998 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CETTE THESE S'INTERESSE A L'ORDONNANCEMENT DU CPU POUR DES APPLICATIONS DE PRESENTATION MULTIMEDIA REPARTIES, DANS LE CADRE DES SYSTEMES D'EXPLOITATION A BUT GENERAL OU LA QUALITE DES APPLICATIONS PEUT S'ADAPTER AUX CONDITIONS D'EXECUTION. LES FLOTS MULTIMEDIA PRESENTENT DES CONTRAINTES TEMPORELLES QUI DOIVENT ETRE PRISES EN COMPTE LORS DE L'ALLOCATION DE RESSOURCES, AUSSI BIEN DANS LES RESEAUX QUE DANS LES SYSTEMES, AFIN DE SATISFAIRE LA QUALITE DE SERVICE (QOS) DEMANDEE PAR L'UTILISATEUR. CES CONTRAINTES TEMPORELLES SE REFERENT A LA CONTINUITE DES FLOTS INDIVIDUELS, AUSSI APPELEE SYNCHRONISATION INTRA-FLOT, AINSI QU'AUX RELATIONS TEMPORELLES ENTRE FLOTS DIFFERENTS, OU SYNCHRONISATION INTER-FLOTS. L'ALLOCATION DU CPU DANS DES SYSTEMES UNIX TRADITIONNELLES NE PERMET PAS D'OFFRIR AUX APPLICATIONS MULTIMEDIA UN SERVICE CAPABLE DE SATISFAIRE CES CONTRAINTES. LES APPROCHES EXISTANTES VISANT A RESOUDRE CE PROBLEME NE CONSIDERENT QUE LES BESOINS DES FLOTS INDIVIDUELS, LA SYNCHRONISATION INTER-FLOTS N'ETANT DONC PAS ASSUREE. NOUS PROPOSONS UN MODELE D'ORDONNANCEMENT QUI PERMET DE GERER L'ALLOCATION DU CPU EN RESPECTANT AUSSI BIEN LA CONTINUITE QUE LA SYNCHRONISATION INTER-FLOTS. DANS LE CADRE DE CE MODELE, NOUS DEFINISSONS UNE STRUCTURE D'APPLICATION GENERIQUE QUI PERMET DE PROJETER LES BESOINS DES FLOTS CONTINUS SUR DES UNITES D'EXECUTION DU SYSTEME, ET DE TRANSMETTRE LES BESOINS DE QOS DE SYNCHRONISATION A L'ORDONNANCEUR SOUS FORME DE TSPN (TIME STREAMS PETRI NETS). NOUS DEFINISSONS UN ALGORITHME D'ORDONNANCEMENT DONT LE BUT EST DE RESPECTER LES CONTRAINTES TEMPORELLES DES FLOTS LES PLUS SENSIBLES, TOUT EN MINIMISANT LA DEGRADATION POUR LES FLOTS ADAPTATIFS POUR UNE CAPACITE DE CPU DONNEE, ET EN PRESERVANT LES RELATIONS TEMPORELLES ENTRE LES FLOTS. L'ADAPTATION EST DONC CONTROLEE PAR LE BIAIS DE L'ORDONNANCEUR, ELIMINANT UNE COUCHE DE DECISION QUI PEUT PROVOQUER DES DEGRADATIONS PLUS IMPORTANTES QUE NECESSAIRE.
Download or read book Counterworks written by Richard Fardon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-12-16 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization is often described as the spread of western culture to other parts of the world. How accurate is the depiction of 'cultural flow'? In Counterworks, ten anthropologists examine the ways in which global processes have affected particular localities where they have carried out research. They challenge the validity of anthropological concepts of culture in the light of the pervasive connections which exist between local and global factors everywhere. Rather than assuming that the world is culturally diverse, this book proposes that culture is itself a representation of the similarities and difference recognized between forms of social life. The authors address issues of globalization in terms of diverse histories and traditions of knowledge, which may include the construction of difference as cultural. In its attention to specific local situations, such as Bali, Cuba, Bolivia, Greece, Kenya, and the Maoris in New Zealand, Counterworks argues that the apparent oppositoin between strong westernizing, global forces and weak concept of culture, which supposes cultures to be integrated and possessed of essential properties, needs rethinking in a contemporary world where a marked sense of culture has become a wide-spread property of people's social knowledge. The book will have wide appeal to anthropologists, to students of comparative studies in history, religion and language, and to anyone interested in the phenomenon of postmodernism.
Download or read book The Science of Passionate Interests written by Bruno Latour and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can economics become genuinely quantitative? This is the question that French sociologist Gabriel Tarde tackled at the end of his career, and in this pamphlet, Bruno Latour and Vincent Antonin Lépinay offer a lively introduction to the work of the forgotten genius of nineteenth-century social thought. Tarde's solution was in total contradiction to the dominant views of his time: to quantify the connections between people and goods, you need to grasp "passionate interests." In Tarde's view, capitalism is not a system of cold calculations--rather it is a constant amplification in the intensity and reach of passions. In a stunning anticipation of contemporary economic anthropology, Tarde's work defines an alternative path beyond the two illusions responsible for so much modern misery: the adepts of the Invisible Hand and the devotees of the Visible Hand will learn how to escape the sterility of their fight and recognize the originality of a thinker for whom everything is intersubjective, hence quantifiable. At a time when the regulation of financial markets is the subject of heated debate, Latour and Lépinay provide a valuable historical perspective on the fundamental nature of capitalism.

Download or read book Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies Vol 13 2010 2011 written by Catherine Barnard and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies provides a forum for the scrutiny of significant issues in EU Law, the law of the European Convention on Human Rights, and Comparative Law with a 'European' dimension, and particularly those issues which have come to the fore during the year preceding publication. The contributions appearing in the collection are commissioned by the Centre for European Legal Studies (CELS) Cambridge, a research centre in the Law Faculty of the University of Cambridge specialising in European legal issues. The papers presented are at the cutting edge of the fields which they address, and reflect the views of recognised experts drawn from the University world, legal practice, and the institutions of both the EU and its Member States. Inclusion of the comparative dimension brings a fresh perspective to the study of European law, and highlights the effects of globalisation of the law more generally, and the resulting cross fertilisation of norms and ideas that has occurred among previously sovereign and separate legal orders. The Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies is an invaluable resource for those wishing to keep pace with legal developments in the fast moving world of European integration.
