Le partage en temps réel de nouvelles, d'humeurs, et autres contenus (personnels ou personnellement sélectionnés) permet de tisser, de maintenir et de renforcer des liens sociaux entre personnes à des échelles encore inédites. Cependant, la quantité sans cesse croissante d'information circulant sur ces réseaux, souvent en temps réel, motive une régulation des signaux (ici appelées "interactions médiatisées"), de manière à réduire le temps nécessaire pour suivre ses réseaux sociaux, et modérer les interruptions induites, non favorables à une bonne productivité sur le traitement de tâches demandant une attention continue. Dans le cadre de cette thèse, nous avons développé un système de filtrage et de recommandation de ces signaux qui repose sur la similarité contextuelle entre utilisateurs, producteurs et consommateurs de ces signaux, pour évaluer leur pertinence. Notre approche consiste à agréger et interpréter les données de contexte sur les terminaux des utilisateurs, sous forme de mots- clés pondérés (tags), avant qu'elles ne puissent être exploitées par le serveur de recommandation, à la demande de l'utilisateur. Dans ce mémoire, nous présenterons un état de l'art couvrant la gestion de données contextuelles, les réseaux sociaux et leurs pratiques actuelles sur internet, et des techniques de recherche d'information. Ensuite, nous proposerons une formalisation de notre problématique de filtrage contextuel, l'implémentation d'une application de réseautage social d'entreprise, et nous discuterons les résultats expérimentaux obtenus auprès d'utilisateurs. Mots-Clés: recherche d’informations, modélisation de données de contexte, systèmes de recommandation, réseaux sociaux, surcharge informationelle A Context Management Framework based on Wisdom of Crowds for Social Awareness applications Abstract At a time when social networking sites revolutionize the usages on the Web, it has become rich, easy, and fun to share private or professional content. Sharing personal information in real-time (such as news, moods, etc…), supports the maintenance of social ties at a high scale. However, the information overload which emerged from the growing quantity of signals exchanged on these services, often in real-time, motivates a regulation of these signals (called "mediated interactions"), in order to reduce the temporal cost for maintaining social networks, and implied interruptions, which have a negative impact on productivity on tasks that require long-lasting attention. In the frame of this thesis, we have developed a filtering and recommendation system that relies on contextual similarity between users that produce and consume social signals, as relevance criteria. In our approach, contextual information is aggregated and interpreted on users' terminal(s), before being submitted on-demand to a server in the form of a set of weighted tags. In this thesis, we present a broad state of the art on context- awareness, social networks and information retrieval, we propose a formalization of our filtering problem, and we implement and evaluate its application for enterprise social networking. Keywords: information retrieval, context-awareness, recommender systems, social networks, information overload Acknowledgements When I decided to start a PhD thesis, I was very motivated for working on my own research project during three years, but I also knew it was not going to be easy. Indeed, it has been a very enriching experience, but I could not have achieved it without support from my supervisors, colleagues, friends and family. First, I would like to thank my research supervisor, Pierre Maret, for having trusted my insights and research directions, giving wise advice and confidence when I needed it, and providing several opportunities to present my work. As my co-supervisor (and former-) at Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs France, I am thankful to Johann Daigremont and Fabien Bataille, for giving me the resources, responsibilities and autonomy I needed to carry out my thesis in the best conditions. It was a pleasure to supervise Johann Stan and Chafik Bachatene, who collaborated to my research during their internship at Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs France. Throughout my PhD thesis, I have had the chance to meet great people and new friends, including fellow PhD students Julien Subercaze, Romain Vuillemot, François Guern, and Dominique Decotter, who provided valuable references from various disciplines (including sociology and cognitive psychology), believed in my research, and always shared honest feedback about it. I'm thankful to my colleagues from Alcatel-Lucent worldwide, especially Dimitre Kostadinov, Jerôme Picault, Florian Rodary, Peter Schott, Christophe Scicluna and Makram Bouzid for their participation to the evaluation of my prototype, and for their help at various phases of my thesis. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to the committee members of my PhD defense, and especially to Anind K. Dey and Eddie Soulier for the positive and enriching feedback they provided through their review of my thesis. This thesis, and most of my scientific publications, were written in English. This would have not been a reasonable objective without some serious proofreading, which was kindly proposed by several friends, including Jenna Campbell, Thibaud Hulin, Alain Leufroy, Hayley Nilsen, Laure Pavlovic, Greg Payne and Peter Schott. Finally, I would like to dedicate this work to my family. They have always supported me to pursue my vocation — to become a successful computer scientist — and my passion for performing music and travels.

  • Canterbury Sound’ Andy Bennett UNIVERSITY of SURREY
    Music, media and urban mythscapes: a study of the ‘Canterbury Sound’ Andy Bennett UNIVERSITY OF SURREY In this article I examine how recent developments in media and technology are both re-shaping conventional notions of the term ‘music scene’ and giving rise to new perceptions among music fans of the relationship between music and place. My empirical focus throughout the article is the ‘Canterbury Sound’, a term originally coined by music journalists during the late 1960s to describe the music of Canterbury1 jazz-rock group the Wilde Flowers, and groups subsequently formed by individual members of the Wilde Flowers – the most well known examples being Caravan, Hatfield and the North and Soft Machine (see Frame, 1986: 16; Macan, 1997; Stump, 1997; Martin, 1998), and a number of other groups with alleged Canterbury connections. Over the years a range of terms, for example ‘Motown’, the ‘Philadelphia Sound’ and, more recently, the ‘Seattle Sound’, have been used as a way of linking musical styles with particular urban spaces. For the most part, however, these terms have described active centres of production for music with a distinctive ‘sound’. In contrast, however, in its original context the Canterbury Sound was a rather more loosely applied term, the majority of groups and artists linked with the Canterbury Sound being London-based and sharing little in the way of a characteristic musical style. Since the mid-1990s, however, the term ‘Canterbury Sound’ has acquired a very different currency as a new generation of fans have constructed a discourse of Canterbury music that attempts to define the latter as a distinctive ‘local’ sound with character- istics shaped by musicians’ direct experience of life in the city of Canterbury.

In December 1973, it added guitarist Allan Holdsworth (recently with Jon Hiseman’s Tempest, and previously Nucleus) to its line-up, which then consisted of Soft Machine founding member and keyboardist Mike Ratledge, along with pianist and saxophonist Karl Jenkins, bass player Roy Babbington, and drummer John Marshall. Jenkins and Ratledge then composed a whole new repertoire, which the band road-tested on extensive tours of North America and continental Europe in the first half of 1974. That material eventually made up Soft Machine’s eighth recording, the first not named after its order of release: the album Bundles, widely acknowledged as a jazz-rock / fusion classic. When released by EMI’s Harvest Label in early 1975, Bundles would secure Soft Machine’s role in the transcontinental jazz-rock pantheon alongside Return To Forever and Mahavishnu Orchestra in the USA, and Nucleus, Brand X, and Isotope in the UK. Soft Machine’s status in the international jazz/rock avant-garde was widely apparent even before Bundles’ official release.

    Jan 18 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 164th birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 10 to Jan. 14. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at Annie Moore's, and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morn- ing (followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's). The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker on Thursday evening was Martin Edwards, the award-winning mystery author and commentator on myster- ies, and then The Baker Street Babes' "Daintiest Scream on the Moor Charity Ball" featured the unveiling of a "Cake Boss" cake in the shape of a bust of Sherlock Holmes (to be featured on an upcoming episode of the TV series. Friday's William Gillette Luncheon included a performance by the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street, plus Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan WHIMSEY Award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber), which honors the most whimsical piece in The Serpentine Muse last year, to M.E. Rich. And Otto Penzler's traditional open house at the Mysterious Bookshop provided the usual opportunities to browse and buy. The Irregulars and their guests gathered for the BSI annual dinner at the Yale Club, where Roy Pilot proposed the traditional preprandial first toast to Patricia Izban as The Woman. The annual-dinner agenda included toasts, rituals, and papers, and Mike Whelan (the BSI's "Wiggins") presented this year's Birthday Honours (Irregular Shillings and Investitures) to Shannon Carlisle ("Beacons of the Future!"), Dean Clark ("Watson's Journal"), Denny Dobry ("A Single Large Airy Sitting-Room"), Jeffrey Hatcher ("The Five Or- ange Pips"), Maria Fleischhack ("Rache"), Anastasia Klimchynskaya ("The Old Russian Woman"), Rebecca Romney ("That Gap on That Second Shelf"), Candace Lewis ("A Little Art Jargon"), Nick Martorelli ("Seventeen Steps"), and Al Shaw ("Sir Hugo Baskerville").
