J’étais loin de me douter de tout ce qui allait arriver. Cette thèse allait devenir ma vie, mon quotidien et celui de mes proches. Elle allait aussi m’amener à voyager et rencontrer une foule de personnes qui allaient marquer mon parcours intellectuel et même ma vie. Quand j’ai rencontré Éric George, alors que j’étais étudiant à la maîtrise, je ne me doutais pas de l’influence qu’il aurait sur ma vie. Éric, tu m’as donné l’occasion de me surpasser encore et encore. Tu as toujours cru en moi et tu m’as appuyé dans les moments les plus difficiles. Quand j’ai pensé tout abandonner, tu m’as simplement dit « non ». Bon, tu l’as sûrement dit en plus de mots, mais ce qui compte c’était que tu avais la certitude que j’étais capable et que moi j’avais la certitude que tu étais là pour moi. Je te remercie pour tout ce que tu as fait pour moi, de m’avoir poussé à participer à des conférences, à partager mes idées et à participer à tes projets de recherche. J’ai eu beaucoup de plaisir à échanger avec toi que ce soit sur le sujet de cette thèse, sur le foot ou sur la science-fiction. Aussi, tu as été le point de départ de nombreuses rencontres et parmi celles-ci, Franck Rebillard. Franck, je te remercie d’avoir accepté de diriger cette thèse de doctorat sans me connaître préalablement. Quand je suis débarqué en France pour notre première rencontre, tu m’avais déjà intégré à tes projets de recherche et tu me considérais déjà comme une personne qui pouvait apporter au développement des connaissances. L’aventure IPRI, puis ANR m’a donné l’occasion de voir et de participer à des recherches intellectuelles de haut niveau, en plus de constituer une expérience humaine unique. Je n’oublierai jamais ces visites en France et à Censier. Merci aussi de ne jamais avoir lâché malgré la distance et les écueils. Franck, Éric, je vous remercie du plus profond de mon cœur pour votre inspiration, votre intelligence et votre capacité à porter un regard critique sur le monde qui nous entoure. Merci aussi à Nikos Smyrnaios de m’avoir fait découvrir la notion d’infomédiation. Un grand merci aux membres du jury Arnaud Anciaux, Philippe Bouquillion, Béatrice Damian-Gaillard et Chantal Francoeur d’avoir pris le temps de lire et de commenter cette thèse. Line. Sans toi, rien de tout ça n’aurait été possible. Depuis 35 ans tu es une source d’inspiration sans fin et un appui indéfectible. Tu as toujours eu les bons mots, les bons gestes et parfois même, les bons silences. On a tout vécu ensemble, des rires les plus incontrôlables, aux pleurs de découragement. Tu étais, tu es et tu seras toujours là comme au premier jour de ma vie. Tu avais raison. Oui j’en étais capable. iii Rachel, mon amour. Merci pour ton soutien, pour ton amour et pour ton courage. Ça a parfois semblé long, mais pas le temps avec toi. Je t’aime encore plus aujourd’hui que lorsqu’on s’est rencontré ce jour-là dans un café. Merci d’avoir eu confiance en moi et de ne jamais m’avoir lâché. Merci aussi pour les vies que tu as fait naître de notre amour. Olan, tu ne réaliseras peut-être jamais vraiment ce que tu as fait pour moi. Tu es ma fierté et mon bonheur. Romy, merci pour la joie, la sérénité et l’équilibre que tu m’apportes. Mes amours, j’ai hâte à tout ce qui nous attend. Merci aussi aux trois gars de ma famille, Gabriel, Gérard et Charles. Je suis tellement chanceux de pouvoir compter sur votre présence et votre confiance. J’ai tellement appris avec vous trois, le plaisir qu’on a eu à partager tout et n’importe quoi ensemble, même si ça finissait souvent par un mal de tête. Merci aussi à toi Carole, j’aurais aimé que tu sois là pour partager ce moment avec moi. Un doctorat, ce n’est pas qu’un travail, c’est aussi une vie et la vie c’est toujours mieux à plusieurs. Merci à vous collègues qui êtes devenus mes amis. Merci spécialement à Renaud pour avoir partagé toutes ces années-là avec moi. À Sylvain et Simon de m’avoir fait rire toutes ces fois. Tous les trois avez été une partie intégrale de mon parcours et je n’oublierai jamais nos folles aventures académiques. À Mélanie et à Josianne d’être qui vous êtes; vous êtes deux femmes fort inspirantes. À Fabien pour ton amour de la théorie. À Bashir pour ta personnalité qui sait allier académie et plaisir. Merci pour votre amitié, vous avez cru en moi et m’avez toujours encouragé. Vous êtes des personnes inspirantes et vous côtoyer toutes ces années a été un privilège. Vous êtes une belle gang, groupe. Merci à Caro, Charles, Dominique, Lysandre, Philippe, Simon et William d’être restés de si bons amis même quand ça faisait mille fois que ma thèse passait avant vous. Merci aussi à Daniel, Fanny, Vanessa et à ma belle-famille pour votre présence dans ma vie. Merci à Patrick Bolland de m’avoir accueilli chez toi et de m’être fait sentir chez moi dans la grande ville de Paris. Merci à Jérémie Droulers de m’avoir enseigné à suivre mes passions. Merci à OG de m’avoir montré que l’échec n’est qu’une marche vers la victoire. Merci à Gaëtan Tremblay et à tous les autres qui avez cru en moi. Merci à vous tous, ça y est, c’est fait. iv We watch the shows, we watch the stars On videos for hours and hours We hardly need to use our ears How music changes through the years Let’s hope you never leave old friend Like all good things on you we depend So stick around ‘cause we might miss you When we grow tired of all this visual Queen – Radio Gaga TABLE DES MATIÈRES LISTE DES ABRÉVIATIONS, SIGLES ET ACRONYMES ...............................

  • Twenty Years of Berkeley Unix : from AT&T-Owned to Freely
    Twenty Years of Berkeley Unix : From AT&T-Owned to Freely Redistributable Marshall Kirk McKusick Early History Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie presented the first Unix paper at the Symposium on Operating Systems Principles at Purdue University in November 1973. Professor Bob Fabry, of the University of California at Berkeley, was in attendance and immediately became interested in obtaining a copy of the system to experiment with at Berkeley. At the time, Berkeley had only large mainframe computer systems doing batch processing, so the first order of business was to get a PDP-11/45 suitable for running with the then-current Version 4 of Unix. The Computer Science Department at Berkeley, together with the Mathematics Department and the Statistics Department, were able to jointly purchase a PDP-11/45. In January 1974, a Version 4 tape was delivered and Unix was installed by graduate student Keith Standiford. Although Ken Thompson at Purdue was not involved in the installation at Berkeley as he had been for most systems up to that time, his expertise was soon needed to determine the cause of several strange system crashes. Because Berkeley had only a 300-baud acoustic-coupled modem without auto answer capability, Thompson would call Standiford in the machine room and have him insert the phone into the modem; in this way Thompson was able to remotely debug crash dumps from New Jersey. Many of the crashes were caused by the disk controller's inability to reliably do overlapped seeks, contrary to the documentation. Berkeley's 11/45 was among the first systems that Thompson had encountered that had two disks on the same controller! Thompson's remote debugging was the first example of the cooperation that sprang up between Berkeley and Bell Labs.

  • UNIX History Page 1 Tuesday, December 10, 2002 7:02 PM
    UNIX History Page 1 Tuesday, December 10, 2002 7:02 PM CHAPTER 1 UNIX Evolution and Standardization This chapter introduces UNIX from a historical perspective, showing how the various UNIX versions have evolved over the years since the very first implementation in 1969 to the present day. The chapter also traces the history of the different attempts at standardization that have produced widely adopted standards such as POSIX and the Single UNIX Specification. The material presented here is not intended to document all of the UNIX variants, but rather describes the early UNIX implementations along with those companies and bodies that have had a major impact on the direction and evolution of UNIX. A Brief Walk through Time There are numerous events in the computer industry that have occurred since UNIX started life as a small project in Bell Labs in 1969. UNIX history has been largely influenced by Bell Labs’ Research Editions of UNIX, AT&T’s System V UNIX, Berkeley’s Software Distribution (BSD), and Sun Microsystems’ SunOS and Solaris operating systems. The following list shows the major events that have happened throughout the history of UNIX. Later sections describe some of these events in more detail. 1 UNIX History Page 2 Tuesday, December 10, 2002 7:02 PM 2 UNIX Filesystems—Evolution, Design, and Implementation 1969.

  • The Trademark History of Linux, the Operating System by Tonya Gisselberg Copyright ©2010 by Tonya Gisselberg
    The Trademark History of Linux, the Operating System by Tonya Gisselberg Copyright ©2010 by Tonya Gisselberg I. Introduction Despite its name, this article is about more than the trademark history of Linux. It begins at the prehistory of Linux and incorporates other areas of intellectual property on the theory that looking at the subject from its all-inclusive intellectual property context adds depth and understanding to the trademark discussion. A good portion of this article is devoted to telling the Linux story - a fascinating and inspirational story. Telling the Linux story is also a necessary component of describing the history of Linux trademarks. A trademark is used by the trademark owner “to identify and distinguish his or her goods, including a unique product, from those manufactured or sold by others and to indicate the source of the goods, even if that source is unknown.”1 A trademark can identify a particular technology, such as Dolby® Surround technology. 2 Under the statutory definition, a trademark cannot have an existence independent from a good or service. “There is no such thing as property in a trade- mark except as a right appurtenant to an established business or trade in connection with which the mark is employed.”3 If there is no identifiable good or protectable technology, but instead, a public domain good or technology that anyone can freely copy and use, then there is nothing to trademark. This is particularly true when the product is something as functional and commoditized as software. Ubuntu 4 Linux and Red Hat 5 Linux are valid trademarks apart from the software because the companies that own those trademarks also sell services.

  • In Search of Stupidity: Over 20 Years of High-Tech Marketing Disasters
    CYAN YELLOW MAGENTA BLACK PANTONE 123 CV Chapman “A funny AND grim read that explains why so many of the high-tech sales departments I’ve trained and written about over the years frequently have Merrill R.Chapman homicidal impulses towards their marketing groups. A must read.” Foreword by Eric Sink —Mike Bosworth Author of Solution Selling, Creating Buyers in Difficult Selling Markets and coauthor of Customer Centric Selling In Search of Stupidity In Search OVER 20 YEARS OF HIGH-TECH MARKETING DISASTERS 20 YEARS OF HIGH-TECH OVER n 1982 Tom Peters and Robert Waterman Ikicked off the modern business book era with In Search of Excellence: Lessons from America’s Best-Run Companies. Unfortunately, as time went by it became painfully obvious that many of the companies Peters and Waterman had profiled, particularly the high-tech ones, were something less than excellent. Firms such as Atari, DEC, IBM, Lanier, Wang, Xerox and others either crashed and burned or underwent painful and wrenching traumas you would have expected excellent companies to avoid. What went wrong? Merrill R. (Rick) Chapman believes he has the answer (and the proof is in these pages). He’s observed that high-tech companies periodically meltdown because they fail to learn from the lessons of the past and thus continue to make the same completely avoidable mistakes again and again and again. To help teach you this, In Search of Stupidity takes you on a fascinating journey from yesterday to today as it salvages some of high-tech’s most famous car wrecks. You will be there as MicroPro, once the industry’s largest desktop software company, destroys itself by committing a fundamental positioning mistake.

  • The Story of Novell
    **FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** EDITORS: For review copies or interview requests, contact: Roger Bourke White Jr. Tel: 801-883-9731 Email: [email protected] (When requesting a review copy, please provide a street address.) The Story of Novell: A Leading Software and Services Corporation Discover what it’s like to be on the brink of multi-million dollar success SALT LAKE CITY – As PC-based technology becomes increasingly vital to everyday life, many wonder how it all began. Roger Bourke White Jr. was there in 1981, on the ground floor of Novell Inc., a crucial information technology (IT) company in the 1990s and 2000s. Surfing the High Tech Wave: A History of Novell 1980 - 1990 (published by AuthorHouse) tells Novell’s story of rising from near bankruptcy in 1982 to controlling 70% of the marketplace in 1990. Novell started with the ambition to be a computer, terminal and printer maker, but that dream failed. While the walls were crashing down around them, four computer programmers were working diligently on a second dream, the Local Area Network (LAN) product. What became known as Netware, the LAN would succeed mightily and give Novell a prominent name in the software marketplace. The computer networking market would have developed in a very different way without the hard work and dedication of these four men, the ten other survivors of the first dream and legendary IT entrepreneur Ray Noorda. Follow Novell on a rollercoaster ride of aspiration and growth, then experimentation and failure and finally rebirth and blinding success. The original Novell founders risked it all and failed.
