Abstract

John Dewey est un des piliers du pragmatisme. Au centre de cette tradition, il y a l’enquête, c’est-à-dire la conviction qu’aucune question n’est a priori étrangère à la discussion et à la justification rationnelle. Dewey, fondamentalement, est un philosophe de la démocratie : La démocratie n’est pas une forme de gouvernement», aimait-il répéter, nul ne saurait donc y voir une figure historique du pouvoir, caractérisée par tel ou tel prédicat idéologique, philosophique ou institutionnel. Au contraire, elle est à elle-même sa propre norme, elle définit les conditions pragmatiques de la discussion rationnelle, et par conséquent de l’enquête comme forme élaborée et socialisée de l’expérience. Dans Le public et ses problèmes, Dewey montre plus particulièrement que la politique est une «expérimentation : les pratiques expérimentales s’appliquent aussi bien à la délimitation du privé et du public qu’à la détermination des intérêts communs, à la décision politique comme à la détermination de la loi. Destiné non pas aux gouvernants, mais au public, instance intermédiaire entre la société et le gouvernement, l’ouvrage entend restituer au public son pouvoir et ses compétences dont le prive la complexification de l’exercice du pouvoir. Il vise à restaurer la démocratie à sa source : la compétence de chaque citoyen.

Abstract

Topics in Parallel and Distributed Computing provides resources and guidance for those learning PDC as well as those teaching students new to the discipline. The pervasiveness of computing devices containing multicore CPUs and GPUs, including home and office PCs, laptops, and mobile devices, is making even common users dependent on parallel processing. Certainly, it is no longer sufficient for even basic programmers to acquire only the traditional sequential programming skills. The preceding trends point to the need for imparting a broad-based skill set in PDC technology. However, the rapid changes in computing hardware platforms and devices, languages, supporting programming environments, and research advances, poses a challenge both for newcomers and seasoned computer scientists. This edited collection has been developed over the past several years in conjunction with the IEEE technical committee on parallel processing (TCPP), which held several workshops and discussions on learning parallel computing and integrating parallel concepts into courses throughout computer science curricula. Contributed and developed by the leading minds in parallel computing research and instruction Provides resources and guidance for those learning PDC as well as those teaching students new to the discipline Succinctly addresses a range of parallel and distributed computing topics Pedagogically designed to ensure understanding by experienced engineers and newcomers Developed over the past several years in conjunction with the IEEE technical committee on parallel processing (TCPP), which held several workshops and discussions on learning parallel computing and integrating parallel concepts

Abstract

«La science a prouvé que...». D'où nous vient cette idée selon laquelle la science serait garante du vrai ? Guillaume Carnino propose une enquête historique et généalogique permettant de comprendre pourquoi et comment, en France, à l'heure de la IIIe République, cette idée en est venue à être unanimement partagée. Il dévoile les rouages de la carrière de savants comme Louis Pasteur, mais aussi l'histoire de simples artisans et pêcheurs dont les découvertes furent convoitées par les industriels. Il montre de quelle manière l'image d'un Galilée anticlérical a pu être fabriquée et renouvelle le regard que l'on porte sur la mise en place de l'école gratuite et obligatoire par Jules Ferry. Parallèlement à la décision démocratique, la pratique scientifique devient peu à peu un mode de gouvernement des êtres et des choses, qui marque l'avènement de la civilisation des experts. La science, désormais auréolée d'un prestige quasi religieux et présentée comme pure - c'est-à-dire indifférente aux intérêts individuels -, se révèle finalement un moyen d'administrer la société autant que de transformer la nature par l'industrie.

Abstract

Multidisciplinary Design Optimization supported by Knowledge Based Engineering supports engineers confronting this daunting and new design paradigm. It describes methodology for conducting a system design in a systematic and rigorous manner that supports human creativity to optimize the design objective(s) subject to constraints and uncertainties. The material presented builds on decades of experience in Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) methods, progress in concurrent computing, and Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) tools. Key features: -Comprehensively covers MDO and is the only book to directly link this with KBE methods -Provides a pathway through basic optimization methods to MDO methods -Directly links design optimization methods to the massively concurrent computing technology -Emphasizes real world engineering design practice in the application of optimization methods Multidisciplinary Design Optimization supported by Knowledge Based Engineering is a one-stop-shop guide to the state-of-the-art tools in the MDO and KBE disciplines for systems design engineers and managers. Graduate or post-graduate students can use it to support their design courses, and researchers or developers of computer-aided design methods will find it useful as a wide-ranging reference.

Abstract

This book highlights recent compelling research results and trends in various aspects of contemporary mathematics, emphasizing applications to real-world situations. The chapters present exciting new findings and developments in situations where mathematical rigor is combined with common sense. A multi-disciplinary approach, both within each chapter and in the volume as a whole, leads to practical insights that may result in a more synthetic understanding of specific global issues—as well as their possible solutions. The volume will be of interest not only to experts in mathematics, but also to graduate students, scientists, and practitioners from other fields including physics, biology, geology, management, and medicine.
