Des réductions en art aux traductions incidentes : le décentrement d’un design tactique by Grégory Marion

“…Instructed by the work of Michel de Certeau on the capacity of “ordinary culture” to affect the order of industrial production (cf. the author’s work on the art of making, “ways of practice” and the daily practices in L’Invention du quotidien—The Practice of Everyday Life, 1980), this article proposes to confront in a specific way—referring to the field of the arts, techniques and design—texts, objects or practices, in order to clear lines of discernment and to create openings. …”

Optimal cluster head deployment in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks by LIU Lin1, YU Hai-bin2

“…Cluster-based method has better adaptability and energy-efficiency to wireless sensor networks（WSN） used for environmental monitoring.If the cluster head is served by more powerful node,the performance of WSN will be improved greatly.In large scale WSN,high-power cluster head deployment is a kind of NP-hard problem.The optimal problem of cluster head deployment was formulated as an integer programming with the condition of restrictions of cluster head capacity and the maximal cluster radius.To satisfy the time effectiveness,a heuristic algorithm called KMSA was proposed which was a hybrid algorithm of K-mean and simulated annealing.The simulation results show that the KMSA can improve the performance of WSN on varieties of network size and cluster number.…”

Optimal transmissions for space-time coded OFDM UWB systems

“…The emerging ultra-wideband （UWB） system offers a great potential for the design of high-speed short-range communications.Compared with great progress at physical layer,the corresponding medium access control （MAC） layer designs are naturally placed on the schedules.We focus on the optimal power load scheme,which is an integral part of the MAC layer protocol design,for UWB space-time coded （STC） orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing （OFDM） transmissions.Assumed the transmitter has perfect or partial channel stage information （CSI）.Based on the optimization criteria of maximizing capacity,three kinds of power load schemes were presented with different tradeoff among performance,complexity and feedback bandwidth overhead.The proposed schemes are verified and compared under the channel prototype proposed by IEEE 802.15.3a Task Group.…”
