Le besoin du contrôle d'accès au contenu dans les hiérarchies (CACH) apparaît naturellement dans de nombreux contextes, allant des départements gouvernementaux aux jeux interactifs, et de la diffusion multi-niveaux des données au contrôle d'accès dans les bases de données. Tous ces contextes ont un point commun, c'est d'avoir besoin de s'assurer que les différentes entités n'accèdent qu'aux ressources auxquelles elles sont autorisées.

Abstract:
We describe a new file system that provides, at the same time, both name and content based access to files. To make this possible, we introduce the concept of a semantic directory. Every semantic directory has a query associated with it. When a user creates a semantic directory, the file system automatically creates a set of pointers to the files in the file system that satisfy the query associated with the directory. This set of pointers is called the query-result of the directory. To access the files that satisfy the query, users just need to de-reference the appropriate pointers. Users can

It does so through the case study of the medial debate concerning the planned redevelopment of Heden, an open central publicly owned area in Gothenburg, Sweden. The case study revealed the highly contested meanings of Heden, as well as different understandings of public space. The study also points to the dilemma of making urban public space readable and convivial, while maintaining it inclusive and open for everyone. The medial debate circles around the newly publicized redevelopment plan for Heden. In the plan the local gover

Abstract:
Learner performance in South Africa is poor in comparison with other countries as a result of poor teaching. At the core of the concern about learners' performance in mathematics in South Africa lies a controversy regarding how mathematics should be taught. The purpose of this study was to explore Grade 8 mathematics teachers' creation and utilisation of opportunities for learners to develop mathematical understanding in their classrooms. To accomplish this, an explorative case study was conducted to explore three mathematics teachers' instructional practices by using Schoenfeld et al.'

Abstract:
IntroStat was designed to meet the needs of students, primarily those in business, commerce and management, for a course in applied statistics. IntroSTAT is designed as a lecture-book. One of the aims is to maximize the time spent in explaining concepts and doing examples. The book is commonly used as part of first year courses into Statistics.

Abstract:
The development of library Consortia in Zimbabwe was necessitated by the need to reduce subscription costs and to widen access to electronic resources as well as implement new technologies among academic libraries. The development of Zimbabwe University Library Consortium (ZULC) and College and Research Library Consortium (CARLC) enabled libraries to cooperate and collaborate in building capacity to support teaching, learning and research through access to quality scholarly information. The trajectory of consortia development in Zimbabwe since 2002 has however been characterised by a focus on

Abstract:
After eighteen years filled with technical evaluation, the European Parliament agreed on a new online copyright directive in 2019. The aim of this directive is to modernize the rules that were last adjusted in 2001, to create a better balance between content providers and online platforms. After the European Commission introduced a proposal for a copyright directive in 2016, caught it the attention of many, mainly due to two articles: Article 11 and 13. The reason for this attention was the practical way in which these articles contributed in reaching the general aim of the new copyright direc

Abstract:
With CMOS technology scaling reaching its limitations rigorous research of alternate and competent technologies is paramount to push the boundaries of computing. Spintronic and resistive memories have proven to be effective alternatives in terms of area, power and performance to CMOS because of their non-volatility, ability for logic computing and easy integration with CMOS. However, deeper investigations to understand their physical phenomenon and improve their properties such as writability, stability, reliability, endurance, uniformity with minimal device-device variations is necessary for

Pour répondre aux enjeux environnementaux (changement climatique, couche d'ozone...) et à l'accroissement des besoins de réfrigération (besoins sanitaires, agro-alimentaire, de confort...), la réfrigération électrocalorique est une alternative prometteuse : elle permet d'éviter l'utilisation des fluides réfrigérants nocifs pour l'environnement employés dans les réfrigérateurs conventionnels. L'effet électrocalorique est la variation de la température d'un matériau polaire suite à l'application ou la suppression d'un champ électrique.

Le toluène est un solvant fréquemment utilisé par l’industrie manufacturière. Il appartient à la catégorie des composés organiques volatils (COV), dont nombre d’entre eux présentent des impacts néfastes sur la santé humaine et sont aujourd’hui classés cancérogènes, mutagènes et/ou reprotoxiques. Afin de diminuer la présence dans l’air de composés nocifs comme le toluène, il apparait essentiel d’envisager leur substitution dans les procédés industriels par des composés moins toxiques et/ou de réduire au maximum leurs émissions à la source.

Abstract:
La combustion de la biomasse et en particulier du bois constitue une alternative intéressante à l'utilisation des combustibles fossiles pour l'approvisionnement en énergie. Elle présente l'avantage de pouvoir être renouvelable sans contribuer à une émission supplémentaire de CO₂. Cependant, il est connu que les appareils de chauffage utilisant la biomasse comme combustible peuvent générer certains polluants gazeux dont notamment les Composés Organiques Volatils (COV) et le monoxyde de carbone (CO).
