Le rapport au paysage ordinaire. Approche par les pratiques des espaces de proximité by Marta Benages-Albert, Sophie Bonin

“…Changes in social expectations concerning the living environment have led French legislators working on normal landscape policies, such as the 1993 landscape law, to introduce landscape issues into the domain of urban regulations. Such changes, also apparent since 2000 in the European Landscape Convention, raise the question of how to characterise periurban landscapes or the urban landscapes developed during the 20th century with a view to assessing landscape policies. …”

The Lomax Distribution for Wireless Channel Modeling: Theory and Applications by Ivan Sanchez, F. Javier Lopez-Martinez

“…By a proper redefinition of its scale parameter, we present closed-form expressions for its main statistics: probability density function, cumulative distribution function, raw moments and Laplace-domain statistics. Then, relevant performance indicators are derived, including the amount of fading, channel capacity, outage probability and error rate. …”

Activators of the 26S proteasome when protein degradation increases by Donghoon Lee

“…Among the proteins that enhance proteasomal degradation are the PKA, PKG, UBL-UBA proteins and the Zn finger AN1-type domain (ZFAND) family proteins. ZFAND proteins are of particular interest because of their inducible expression in response to various stimuli and their abilities to control protein quality by stimulating the 26S proteasome and p97/VCP. …”

Tours de Babel et lettres de feu : motifs bibliques dans le Berlin de Vladimir Nabokov by Monica Manolescu-Oancea

“…The problem of Berlin’s existence or non-existence in Nabokov’s work is therefore shifted from the domain of mimetic representation onto a different plane, where the signs of Berlin are closely examined and decoded, thus giving access to a possible understanding of the writer’s change of language and of his larger aesthetic project.…”
