  • Public Strategies for the Information Society in the Member States of the European Union
    Public Strategies for the Information Society in the Member States of the European Union A report prepared by Isabelle Chatrie and Paul Wraight, LL&A An ESIS report Information Society Activity Centre DG Information Society This version includes two additional contributions from the EFTA/EEA countries Norway and Iceland (November 2000) September 2000 The ESIS Project The Information Society Project Office (ISPO) at the European Commission set up a survey of European Information Society Projects and Actions in the 15 EU Member States called ESIS. This project ran for a period of two years between February 1997 and January 1999. It was further extended to 25 CEEC and Mediterranean countries and a continuation phase for Member States was implemented in 2000 with a narrower scope. This report on Public Strategies for the Information Society in the Member States of the European Union has been produced to provide up-to-date and relevant information that would support the existing reports and database on the web site. ESIS holds information on a broad range of commercial and publicly funded Information Society application projects in Europe. It aims to provide a tool for benchmarking, knowledge, communication, partnership and the promotion of best practice examples. Furthermore, it can serve as a navigation tool for all key actors and help in the promotion of the Information Society in Europe. More precisely, ESIS combines four categories of information: · An inventory of projects, which is the core of ESIS. Projects must use ICT in an innovative, interactive way and provide remote access. They may concern a large number of social and economic sectors and be initiated by national, regional, public and private organisations, or through partnerships set up between public and private groups.

  • 1991-10: Hidetsugu Yagi
    When I Think Back... by Neville Williams Hidetsugu Yagi: A pioneer who gave radio antennas a sense of direction Look up the word `Yagi' in almost any book on radio communications, and you will be told that it refers to directional antennas of a particular kind. Rarely do the authors have much to say about the Japanese inventor, whose memory it perpetuates. So who was he, and why does his name now occupy such a conspicuous place in the predominantly 'western' jargon of modern electronics? In my younger days, it took a while in an approved manner, cut to specified UHF bands & equipment to catch up with the idea of designing dimensions and coupled to the transmit- wireless/radio antennas to have specific ter and receiver in a particular way.

  • Lof Ormatiestromen En Gegevensbanken M De Parlementaire Werkzaamheden
    loformatiestromen en gegevensbanken m de parlementaire werkzaamheden door Louis V ANVEL THOVEN Voorzitter van de Vlaamse Raad "Een paar eeuwen geleden kon een wetenschapsmens nog beweren dat hij een ruime kennis had van zijn vak. De dag van heden is het zelfs voor specialisten in een bepaalde discipline niet meer mogelijk de evolutie op de voet te volgen. Wanneer een arts b.v. alle ontwikkelingen op medisch gebied zou willen kennen, dan zou 1 procent van deze informatie hem 5 uur lectuur per dag kosten. Gelukkig bestaat ook voor hem de computer. .. ". Zo luidt de inleiding van een artikel dat mij onder de titel "Kennis is nu nog meer macht" in een presentatienummer van EOS, een magazine voor wetenschap en technologie, onder ogen viel. Uiteraard maakte ik hierbij de associatie met de allegorie van F-16's en tweedekkers, die ik destijds heb gemaakt om het hemels­ brede verschil inzake toegang tot de informatie tussen de uitvoerende en de wet­ gevende macht aan de kaak te stellen. Bedenk daarbij dat de uitvoerende zowel als de wetgevende macht regelgevend moeten optreden in de brede waaier van materies die Staat, volk en burger aanbelangen. Vergeleken bij de arts, zou een politiek mandataris met 24 uur lectuur per dag nog tekort schieten. Als oplossing voor het probleem van de toegang tot de informatie en de daaruit voortvloeiende kenniswerving, wordt de computer steevast als een "deus ex ma­ china" naar voren geschoven. Met hem wordt de mens van een zwaar juk bevrijd en krijgt hij moeiteloos toegang tot de tuin van kennis en wetenschappen.

    Hidetsugu Yagi. 7/11/13 2:54 PM Highfields ARC website uses cookies. By using this website you agree to our Cookie Policy Translate this page Spanish Microsoft® Translator HIGHFIELDS AMATEUR RADIO CLUB INNOVATORS PAGES. PROFESSOR HIDETSUGU YAGI. 1886 - 1976. Professor Hidetsugu Yagi was born in year 19 of the Meiji Era (January 28 1886 to you and I) in Osaka prefecture, Japan. I have been unable to discover anything about his early life but he graduated in engineering from Tokyo Imperial University in 1909. After graduating he went to Germany, where he continued his education under the direction of Heinricti Barkhausen, inventor of the Barkhausen oscillator. Yagi's research in Germany concerned resonant transformers used in wireless systems. The outbreak of the First World War forced his hurried departure, leaving all his experimental data behind. He later published a paper on the theoretical part of this research in the December 1917 Proceedings of the Institute of Radio Engineers. Yagi had fled Germany to Great Britain where he studied with John A. Fleming until 1916. Before returning to Japan, Yagi visited the United States and spent some time at Harvard University with George W. Pierce. Yagi then began his teaching career at Tohoku Imperial University, which awarded him a doctorate in engineering in 1919. At Tohoku University, Yagi initiated a research program in radio-electronics, drawing on the knowledge that he had learned with Barkhausen, Fleming, and Pierce. Other members of the faculty and advanced students, including Okabe and Shintaro Uda, became participants in a collective research effort. A perceived need for better communication between islands and with ships led them to focus on short wave communication with directive antennas.

Nous structurons notre démonstration en quatre grandes parties suivant une approche stratégique de tradition descriptive, principalement inspirée par l'école de l'environnement. Au cours des trois premières parties, nous exposerons et débâterons des mutations d’un environnement général que nous aborderons à travers trois dimensions : une dimension technologique, une dimension sociale et une dimension économique et réglementaire qui sera également l’occasion d’étudier les effets de l’environnement général sur les sphères industrielles et concurrentielles.
