Dear all, this issure has been a question for debate recently. Who was truly the inventor of the front-wheel-drive car ? Well, apart from the fact that the first car, the Fardier of Cugnot from 1770, was actually powered from the front by its heavy steam...
Cher tous dans le but de sauvegarder et stocker toujours plus de donnees autant au travail qu´a la maison, j´avais adopte l´idee du disque dur extrerne et j´ai donc achete un DDE de type Maxtor Basics de 500 Go. Apres une utilisation de 3 semaines, le...
Dear all, I was asked by my colleague Scott Ferson to forward this open position proposal: Applied Biomathematics (www.ramas.com/research.htm) has an opening for a one- or two-year post doctoral position for a mathematician or statistician working in...

Message du gouvernement du Québec Bon travail, Luc Rolland ================================ COMMUNIQUÉ à la communauté scientifique Pré-annonce - Appels de projets Québec-Canada-Europe sur la recherche intégrative en génomique et pathophysiologie du syndrome...
This is a well known problem, ask Renault's engineers having that trouble on their superb Vel Satis running on Nissan's 3.5 L motor. It is really called Electromagnetic Interference. http://spectrum.ieee.org/riskfactor/computing/it/toyotas-sudden-unintended-acceleration-caused-in-part-by-electronic-interference...
Dear all, the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters has decided to award the Abel Prize for 2009 to the now French mathematician Mikhail Leonidovich Gromov for “his revolutionary contributions to geometry”. He has been involved in impressive research...
Dear all, have a look at this interesting one there. A group of veteran engineers breathes new life into the hulk of an old IBM 1401 computer: http://spectrum.ieee.org/computing/hardware/rebuilding-the-ibm-1401 This makes me remember of these old science...
Dear all, in countries like Cyprus, the main problem is now that we get more and more sand storms coming from Irak or the Sahara desert. This means that our solar panels get dirty very quicly impairing their proper operations. Efficiency is then dramatically...
Dear all, there is now a very good billingual site which proposes what may now be the most efficient ressource for finding information about any articles. This project was carried by people that I know of since they are located to what is left of the...
Hello all, as it is important to apply more ways to live green, find out how to put together a complete rainwater fed toilet flushing system http://www.reuk.co.uk/Rainwater-Toilet-Flush-System.htm This system can easily be modified so the bathtube and...
C'est avec la logique que nous prouvons et avec l'intuition que nous trouvons. Douter de tout ou tout croire, ce sont deux solutions également commodes, qui l'une et l'autre nous dispensent de réfléchir. Un banquier est toujours en liberté provisoire....
Dear folks, the issue of modeling and solving validation has been my "cup of tee" since my PhD thesis where I did insist on putting some effort on the modeling issue. From the point of view of mathematics, an equations system exists as such as an object...
Dear all, as climate change will result in dramatic change in the planet geophysics, this also brings a concern about water supplies requirements for energy production. As the pressure for renewable and clean energy production is increasing, engineers...

Quotations This is with logic that we prove but this is with intuition that we find. Henri Poincare I have made this letter longer than usual because I lack the time to make it shorter. Blaise Pascal Ignorance is always ready to admire itself. Procure...
Dear folks, as Turkey moves in the fast lane with not one but three high speed line for high speed rail service centered on Ankarra in direction of Istambul, Izmir and the south, there are still some governments who have not moved in the twenty-first...
I transmit this message received from [Reliable Computing], an egroup dedicated to reliable computing. This will be an occasion to see this nice area on Lac Leman (the Geneva Lake). ==================== Dear colleagues, Since about nine years, we have...
Chers tous, connaissez-vous l'Encyclopédie ou Dictionnaire raisonné des sciences, des arts et des métiers publiee par Diderot et redigee par D'Alembert pour sa partie mathematique ? Vraisemblablement la premiere encyclopedie moderne. Dans le meme esprit...
Hello all, here is a very important message from the IEEE Institute Online : "As resources become scarcer, while more people clamor to share them, and global warming is an increasing danger, it's plain that our current course is not sustainable. To address...
This article brings an issue which will need torough investigation: http://spectrum.ieee.org/semiconductors/devices/future-of-lowpower-chips-in-doubt I have known for quite a while that there exists a threat to low-power logic circuits as their dimensions...
Firstly, this problem was proven to have 40 complex solutions by Ronga and Vust for the general 6-6 Gough platform [Ronga and Vust 1992] . Since the time when Raghavan solved some FKP cases of a 6-6 Gough Platform using homothopy continuation [Raghavan...
"Beam me up Scotty" is becoming a reality a the nano level and promises better days for computers who are plagued by speed limits caused by overheating (I have lost a laptop recently for that reason, do not buy fake copies made in China even if they come...
The Digest Submission Deadline is November 30, 2008. Submission Website is:
Dear all, We have a very rich month coming as far as robotics is concerned. They cannot be seen on a sole website. Here is the list of events that I could fetch: October 2008 ICCAS 2008 - 2008 International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems....
