Abstract:
AbstractDuring interactions, system actors may face up misunderstandings when their local states contain inconsistent data about the same fact. Misunderstandings in interactions are likely to reduce interactivity performances (deviation or deadlock) or even affect overall system behavior. In this paper, we characterize misunderstandings in interactions between system actors (that may be human users or system agents) in interactive adaptive systems. To deal with such misunderstandings and ensure state consistency, we present an agent-based architecture and a scenario structuring approach. The system includes several agents devoted to scenario unfolding, plot adaptation and consistency management. Scenario structuring is based on the notion of a situation that is an elementary building block dividing the interactions between systems’ actors into contextual scenes. This pattern supports not only scenario execution but consistency management as well. In order to organize and control interactions, the situation contextualizes interactions and activity of the system’s actors. It also includes prevention and tolerance agent-based mechanisms to deal with the misunderstandings and their causes. We validate our consistency management mechanisms using Uppaal simulation and provide some experimental results to show the effectiveness of our approach on an online distance learning case study

Abstract:
The paper addresses specification and development of large and complex management systems for business process based on a multi agent systems approach. A methodology for obtaining workflow specifications is presented; it is based on conceiving the management system as a mobile agent system in which mobile agents guide the workflow processes within the organization. The specification includes the work environment, the agent behavior, the process plans, the tasks, the resources, and the interaction protocols. The obtained descriptions are modular and hierarchal leading to clear and compact structuring of the distributed software. The design methodology includes a guideline for Java based coding. Finally, key issues for extending the agent based method to address inter-organizational workflow management are overviewed.

Abstract:
In contrast to standard approaches based on agent communication languages (ACLs), environment-based coordination is emerging as an interesting alternative for structuring interactions in multiagent systems (MASs). In particular, the notion of coordination artifacts has been proposed as an engineering methodology to build runtime abstractions effectively providing collaborating agents with specifically designed coordination tasks.In this paper, we study the semantics for the interaction of agents with coordination artifacts playing the same role of ACL semantics, that is, supporting semantic interoperability between agents developed by different parties through the connection between rationality and interaction. Our approach is rooted on the notion of operating instructions of coordination artifacts, which—as with a manual for a human exploiting a device—describe the interaction protocols the agent can follow as well as the mentalistic semantics of each single interaction. By tackling some of the most relevant issues raised in the context of ACL semantics, our framework allows intelligent, BDI-like agents to carry on complex interactions through coordination artifacts in a rational way.

Abstract:
La prise de conscience de l’impact environnemental lié à l’utilisation des ressources pétrolières a poussé à la mise en place de nouvelles mesures écologiques à travers le monde en vue de limiter, notamment, les émissions de soufre lors de la combustion des carburants. Afin de répondre à ces nouvelles normes, il est nécessaire de s’intéresser au procédé permettant de réduire la quantité de soufre présent dans les essences : l’hydrotraitement. Ce procédé catalytique nécessite l’emploi de catalyseurs à base de sulfure de métaux de transition (MoS2) promu par du nickel (NiMoS) ou du cobalt (CoMoS). Cette thèse propose l’utilisation de polymères comme agents structurants afin d’améliorer les propriétés catalytiques des composés NiMoS. Dans ce but, différents polymères de synthèse présentant diverses interactions avec les précurseurs ou le pré-catalyseur (électrostatiques, stabilisation stérique) ont été préparés et deux voies de synthèse ont été explorées afin de préparer directement des catalyseurs NiMoS en présence de polymères : la métathèse et la nucléation-croissance. L’utilisation d’un polymère amphiphile non ionique, le Pluronic® P123, lors des synthèses par métathèse a conduit à une augmentation de la surface spécifique de 31 m²/g à 126 m²/g ainsi qu’une diminution de l’empilement et de la taille des feuillets de NiMoS2. Les tests catalytiques effectués sur ce catalyseur préparé en présence de Pluronic® P123 ont mis en évidence une amélioration de l’activité catalytique lors de l’hydrodésulfuration du 3-méthylthiophène. De plus, une synthèse directe de NiMoS en une seule étape, en présence ou non de polymère, a été mise au point par nucléation-croissance conduisant à des catalyseurs prometteurs pour l’hydrodésulfuration
Awareness about the environmental impact due to the use of petroleum resources has pushed forward the implementation of new environmental regulation around the world in order to limit sulphur emission due to fuel consumption. To fulfill these new regulations, it is necessary to look at the process allowing the reduction of the sulphur amount in fuel: hydrotreatment. This catalytic process requires the use of nickel (NiMoS) or cobalt (CoMoS) promoted transition metal sulfide catalyst (MoS2). This work proposes to use polymers as structuring agent in order to improve the catalytic properties of NiMoS compounds. For this purpose, homemade polymers capable of interactions with the precursors or the pre-catalyst have been synthesized and two synthetic routes have been explored in order to directly prepare NiMoS catalysts in the presence of polymers: metathesis and nucleation-growth. The use of an amphiphilic nonionic polymer, Pluronic® P123, during the synthesis by metathesis led to an increase of the specific surface area from 31 m²/g to 126 m²/g, as well as a reduction of the stacking and size of MoS2 layers. Catalytic tests conducted on this compound prepared with Pluronic® P123 showed increased catalytic activity for the hydrodesulphurization of 3-methylthiophene. In addition, a new synthetic way to directly prepare NiMoS in one step by nucleation-growth – in presence or not of polymer – leading to a promising catalyst for hydrodesulphurization has been developed

Abstract:
The last decade has seen an explosion in the growth and use of the Internet. Rapidly evolving network and computer technology, coupled with the exponential growth of services and information available on the Internet, is heralding in a new era of ubiquitous computing. Hundreds of millions of people will soon have pervasive access to a huge amount of information, which they will be able to access through a plethora of diverse computational devices. These devices are no longer isolated number crunching machines; rather they are on our desks, on our wrists, in our clothes, embedded in our cars, phones and even washing machines. These computers are constantly communicating with each other via LANs, Intranets, the Internet, and through wireless networks, in which the size and topology of the network is constantly changing. Over this hardware substrate we are attempting to architect new types of distributed system, ones that are able to adapt to changing qualities and location of service. Traditional theories and techniques for building distributed systems are being challenged. In this new era of massively distributed computing we require new paradigms for building distributed systems. This thesis is concerned with how we structure distributed systems. In Part I, we trace the emergence and evolution of computing abstractions and build a philosophical argument supporting mobile code, contrasting it with traditional distribution abstractions. Further, we assert the belief that the abstractions used in traditional distributed systems are flawed, and are not suited to the underlying hardware substrate on which contemporary global networks are built. In Part U, we describe the experimental work and subsequent evaluation that constitutes the first steps taken to validate the arguments of Part I.

Abstract:
Les zéolithes sont largement utilisées en catalyse acide, particulièrement en pétrochimie. Toutefois, leur activité n'est pas optimale à cause des limitations diffusionnelles imposées par leur structure microporeuse. Diverses approches ont été proposées pour contourner ces limitations et notamment la préparation des zéolithes mésoporeuses. Après une évaluation industrielle des différentes méthodes rapportées dans la littérature, la première partie de la thèse a été consacrée à la mise au point, la compréhension et l'optimisation d'une procédure de préparation de zéolithes à mésoporosité contrôlée à l'aide d'un agent structurant organique. Nous nous sommes intéressés à la recristallisation de la zéolithe Y qui permet de créer un volume mésoporeux important au sein des cristaux de zéolithe par transformation pseudomorphique. Dans une seconde partie, nous rapportons la première synthèse de zéolithes mésoporeuses à partir d'un agent structurant récupérable et recyclable en conditions douces dans l'eau. En synthétisant un agent structurant thermosensible adapté aux conditions de recristallisation, une mésostructure contrôlée a pu être obtenue au sein de la zéolithe. L'extraction du polymère en solution aqueuse a été optimisée et son recyclage sur quatre cycles de recristallisation a été démontré
Zeolites are widely used in acid catalysis, especially in petrochemistry. However, their activity is not optimal because of diffusional limitations imposed by their microporous structure. Various approaches have been proposed to circumvent these limitations, including the preparation of mesoporous zeolites. After an industrial assessment of the different methods reported in the literature, the first part of the thesis was devoted to the development, understanding and optimization of a procedure for preparation of zeolites with controlled mesoporosity using an organic structuring agent. We studied the recrystallization of the zeolite Y, which creates a large mesoporous volume in the zeolite crystals by pseudomorphic transformation. In the second part, we report the first synthesis of mesoporous zeolites using a structuring agent recoverable and recyclable under mild conditions in water. By synthesizing a structuring agent adapted to the conditions of thermal recrystallization, controlled mesostructure could be obtained within the zeolite. The extraction of the polymer in aqueous solution has been optimized and recycling of four cycles of recrystallization has been demonstrated

Abstract:
La gestion des flux de trafic aérien (ATFM) cherche à structurer le trafic de manière à réduire la congestion dans l'espace aérien. La congestion étant causée par les avions volant dans les mêmes portions de l'espace aérien en même temps, l'ATFM organise le trafic dans les dimensions spatiales (ex. le réseau de routes) et dans la dimension temporelle (ex. séquencement et fusion de flux d'avions atterrissant ou décollant aux aéroports). L'objectif de cette thèse est de développer une méthodologie qui permet au trafic aérien de s'auto-structurer dans les dimensions spatiales et temporelle quand la demande est élevée. Cette structuration disparait quand la demande diminue. Pour remplir cet objectif, un système multi-agents a été développé, dans lequel les avions coopèrent pour structurer le trafic. Les systèmes multi-agents possèdent plusieurs avantages, incluant une bonne résilience aux perturbations, la résilience étant la capacité du système à modifier ses décisions de manière à retrouver un état stable après l'occurrence d'une perturbation dans son environnement. Dans ce système, trois algorithmes sont implémentés, visant à réduire la com- plexité du trafic de trois manières différentes. Le premier algorithme permet aux agents avions volant sur un réseau de route de réguler leur vitesse de manière à ré- duire le nombre de conflits, un conflit se produisant quand deux avions ne respectent pas les normes de séparation. Le deuxième algorithme permet aux avions de résoudre les conflits quand le trafic n'est pas structuré par un réseau de routes. Le troisième algorithme crée des réseaux de routes locaux temporaires pour structurer le trafic. Les trois algorithmes implémentés dans ce système multi-agents permet de réduire la complexité globale du trafic, qui devient plus simple à gérer pour les contrôleurs aériens. Ces algorithmes sont appliqués à des exemples réalistes et sont capables de structurer le trafic de manière résiliente
Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) aims at structuring traffic in order to reduce congestion in airspace. Congestion being linked to aircraft located at the same position at the same time, ATFM organizes traffic in the spatial dimension (e.g. route network) and in the time dimension (e.g. sequencing and merging of aircraft flows taking off or landing at airports). The objective of this thesis is to develop a methodology that allows the traffic to self-organize in the time and space dimensions when demand is high. This structure disappears when the demand diminishes. In order to reach this goal, a multi-agent system has been developed, in which aircraft cooperate to structure traffic. Multi-agent systems have several advantages, including a good resilience when confronted with disruptive events, resilience being the ability of the system to adapt its decisions in order to get back to a stable state when confronted to a disruption in its environment. In this system, three algorithms have been implemented, aiming at reducing traffic complexity in three different ways. The first algorithm allows aircraft agents flying on a route network to regulate speed in order to reduce the number of conflicts, a conflict occurring when two aircraft do not respect separation norms. The second algorithm allows aircraft to solve conflicts when the traffic is not structured by a route network. The third algorithm creates temporary local route networks allowing to structure traffic. The three algorithms implemented in this multi-agent system allow to decrease overall traffic complexity, which becomes easier to manage by air traffic controllers. This algorithm was applied on realistic examples and was able to structure traffic in a resilient way

Abstract:
Les cyclodextrines (cds), oligosaccharides cycliques, sont des molecules cages susceptibles de complexer selectivement des molecules organiques suivant des criteres geometriques de taille et de forme. Ces composes ont ete utilises pour realiser des membranes a transport facilite a reconnaissance moleculaire. Les materiaux obtenus possedent de bonnes proprietes de separation pour des molecules analogues (par exemple toluene/ethylbenzene) ou des isomeres geometrique (o-/p-xylene) mais les permeabilites sont faibles lorsque les cds sont repartis aleatoirement dans la matrice membranaire. Les cds peuvent s'enfiler sur un polymere lineaire pour former une structure supramoleculaire appelee pseudo-polyrotaxane. La reaction des extremites avec des groupements encombrants de maniere a eviter la perte des molecules cycliques dans la solution donne naissance a des structures stables polyrotaxanes (prs). L'objectif de ce travail est d'utiliser des prs comme agents structurants de canaux moleculaires dans des materiaux membranaires. Pour cela des cd-prs a base d'-cd et de chaines polyethylene glycol (mw 2000 et 3350 g/mol) ont ete prepares et caracterises, en particulier, par rmn 1h et 1 3c et par une analyse de chromatographie d'exclusion par la taille couplee a un detecteur diffusion de lumiere laser a angles multiples. Il a ete montre que les cd-prs obtenus possedent des structures rigides avec un nombre fixe de cds ne dependant que de la longueur de la chaine. Les cd-prs ont ete incorpores dans une matrice de poly (alcoolvinylique) et le greffage des cds realise par reaction avec un di-isocyanate. Les materiaux obtenus sous forme de films auto-supportes ont ete utilises dans des experiences de pertraction. Les permeabilites des membranes contenant les cds sous une forme pre-orientee sont deux fois superieures a celles obtenues avec des cds reparties au hasard. Les selectivites mesurees pour des solutions aqueuses sources 50/50 ethylbenzene/toluene (2,75) et o-/p-xylene (4,57) sont en accord avec les rapports de constantes de complexation en solution. Elles sont identiques pour les deux types de materiaux.

La bonne solubilité des fluorotubes C2F dans l'isopropanol est mise en évidence par microscopie à force atomique (observation d'une majorité de tubes isolés, et non pas de fagots). La réaction de défluoration, utilisant l'hydrazine, a été étudiée par diffusion Raman, d'abord sur des fluorotubes en solution, puis sur des fluorotubes isolés préalablement déposés sur une surface. Les évolutions des modes radiaux observées après défluoration sont expliquées par l'effet fagot.

Abstract:
Cette thèse a pour objectif d'améliorer les performances électrochimiques des dispositifs asymétriques C/MnO2 en formulant des oxydes de manganèse présentant des nano- ou mésostructures. Deux méthodes d’élaboration sont explorées. Le matériau mésoporeux est obtenu par réaction entre un agent structurant souple CTAP et divers alcènes A. L’impact des solutions colloïdales CTAP-A sur la texture et la microstructure de MnO2 a été étudié en proposant un modèle qui corrèle la dimension des agrégats avec le diamètre des pores de MnO2. Les performances du dispositif asymétrique sont aussi optimisées. Bien que l’emploi d’un agent structurant dur AAO n’ait pas permis d’élaborer directement un matériau d’électrode MnO2 performant, une microélectrode de MnO2 élaboré sur des nano-piliers de nickel électrodéposé sur AAO montre des propriétés électrochimiques concurrentes avec celles des microélectrodes actuelles. La bonne réponse en puissance élevée du dispositif asymétrique est due à l’excellente connexion entre les piliers et le matériau actif. Ce mémoire offre une meilleure compréhension sur la formation de MnO2 et présente des microélectrodes prometteuses pour les microsupercondensateurs
The aim of this thesis is to improve the electrochemical performance of C/MnO2 asymmetric devices by elaborating manganese oxides exhibiting nano- or mesostructures. Two preparation methods are proposed. A mesoporous material is obtained through the reaction of soft template CTAP with various A alkenes. The effect of CTAP-A colloidal solution on MnO2 texture and microstructure has been studied by establishing the relationship between aggregates dimension and pore diameter. Asymmetric devices performances can be optimized this way. Attempts to employ AAO as hard template for developing a performant MnO2 electrode were unsuccessful. Nevertheless, a MnO2 microelectrode containing the oxide on nickel nanowires electrodeposited on AAO provided excellent electrochemical performances, comparable with current microsupercapacitor electrodes. Asymmetric device energy retention with increasing power is good due to the excellent MnO2/nickel nanowires connection. This thesis offers insights on the MnO2 formation and proposes promising microelectrodes for microsupercapacitors

Lookout honey, ’cause I’m using technology Ain’t got no time to make no apology—The Stooges, “Search and Destroy”Walter Benjamin’s Depression-era reflections on the collective functions of modernist poetry and slapstick film, on the ways they both struggled to negotiate the psychosomatic impact of capitalist modernity, provide a strong model for grasping the utopian impulses structuring the phenomenon I have termed “slapstick modernism.” The strain of his thought that is most valuable in this regard is the one tending in the direction of an anthropological materialism. Particularly promising is the constellation of concepts that he was still in the process of elaborating at the end of his life: innervation, (corporeal) mimesis, second technology, and play. Holding these concepts together is the idea that affectively charged cultural practices may play a crucial role in fashioning an antifascist social body, one capable of adjusting to its technologically mediated environment. For Benjamin, literary modernism and silent comedy participated in the same general project: the historical mission or task they assigned themselves was to contribute to the construction of a collective agent that would be capable of determining its own future. If, as Miriam Hansen argues, Benjamin’s investment in film was not the result of a “futurist or constructivist enthusiasm for the machine-age,” but arose from his hope that the medium “might yet counter the devastating effects of humanity’s ‘bungled reception of technology,’ which had come to a head with World War I” (...

Abstract:
Since the late eighteenth century, nationalist movements have been one of the world’s most powerful agents of social change. As a social movement, nationalism serves as a primary instrument both for popular aspiration and for ruling ideology. It is embedded in political contexts and can only be explained in relation to the resulting dynamics of contention. There is considerable debate over types of nationalist movements and their role in history, in large part because nationalism is not often explicitly conceptualized as a social movement. These debates, especially those that played out through the 1980s and into the mid-1990s, offer important insights into nationalist mobilization and its conditions of emergence and development. In order to understand the dynamics of nationalism as a social movement, one may draw insights from the “political process” school of social movement scholarship, where the exercise of state power is seen as framing movement identification and as structuring mobilization. Three interrelated dimensions deserve consideration in this regard: material interests and resources, institutional opportunities, and ideological framing of nationalist mobilization. Each is linked to the other by a process of capitalist development that creates systemic inequalities and fragments global society into national units. What emerges is a political sociology of nationalist movements, where movements are embedded in the social forces that they inhabit. The interaction of social forces and nationalist mobilization can be conceived of as a hierarchy, where one leads to the other.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper analyzes the information environment of a product development program in a manufacturing enterprise as a domain in which intelligent agents can facilitate coordination. The information environment refers to information accessed, shared and generated in a product development program. The analysis suggests a structure for defining agents and agent interactions, and clarifies coordination needs in the context of the product development process. An architecture of intelligent agents embedded in a coordination environment is proposed as a means of providing infrastructure and process support to product development. The process of extension of requirements, and the selection and parametric refinement of handbook design solutions of a relief valve is used to illustrate the analysis and architecture for coordination in product development. The functional requirements identified for product development coordination are: (a) explicit representation of development team perspective and product model aspect definitions and mappings among them, (b) encapsulation of views and changes of the product models by intelligent agents, and (c) management of scenarios of interaction between perspectives through their agents. Representation of the dynamics and hierarchy in product development environments is outlined.

Abstract:
Abstract Self-organizing systems (SOS) are able to perform complex tasks in unforeseen situations with adaptability. Previous work has introduced field-based approaches and rule-based social structuring for individual agents to not only comprehend the task situations but also take advantage of the social rule-based agent relations in order to accomplish their overall tasks without a centralized controller. Although the task fields and social rules can be predefined for relatively simple task situations, when the task complexity increases and task environment changes, having a priori knowledge about these fields and the rules may not be feasible. In this paper, we propose a multi-agent reinforcement learning based model as a design approach to solving the rule generation problem with complex SOS tasks. A deep multi-agent reinforcement learning algorithm was devised as a mechanism to train SOS agents for acquisition of the task field and social rule knowledge, and the scalability property of this learning approach was investigated with respect to the changing team sizes and environmental noises. Through a set of simulation studies on a box-pushing problem, the results have shown that the SOS design based on deep multi-agent reinforcement learning can be generalizable with different individual settings when the training starts with larger number of agents, but if a SOS is trained with smaller team sizes, the learned neural network does not scale up to larger teams. Design of SOS with a deep reinforcement learning model should keep this in mind and training should be carried out with larger team sizes.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the role and potential of team collaboration in computational design algorithms. Organizational studies have shown that effectively structuring available resources and knowledge can significantly improve a system’s collective computational capacity, flexibility, and efficiency, and thereby improve problem-solving capacity. Nevertheless, studies in computational distributed problem solving rarely take organizational effects into account. Based on findings in the Organizational Behavior (OB) literature, a computational model of collaborative team-based design is created. This model is tested on a bulk manufacturing process-planning problem previously examined in the literature. The performance of the new team method showed significant improvement: solution quality improved 65% and successful solution identification per unit time increased an entire order of magnitude. A statistical examination of critical algorithm components confirms that agent interdependencies associated with collaboration are the strongest and most consistent performance effects that lead to the observed improvements. This study illustrates that team collaboration can be a highly effective method of improving computation design performance.
