This paper presents an on-going research about a new system of communication for people with cerebral palsy (CP) with athetoid problems. These people have gestural and speech difficulties; so they need help for communicating with people and systems. The system proposed is called ComMOB (COMmunication means for MOBility). Its user interface is based on pictograms to accelerate the input. Moreover, the aim is that this system is context sensitive.

Location selection of Urban Distribution Centers (UDC) is crucial in the design of efficient logistics systems. Indeed, optimum UDC location plays a vital role in saving distribution costs and minimizing traffic congestion arising from freight movement. In this paper, we suggest a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) approach to solve the Urban Distribution Center location /allocation problem under uncertain environment. The proposed approach involves identification of possible locations with the aim of selecting the smartest location for implementing an UDC. The ratings and the weight of each alternative and criterion are described by linguistic variables which can be expressed in triangular fuzzy numbers. The final evaluation value of each UDC location is also expressed using fuzzy logic theory. After calculating the difference of the final evaluation value between each pair of UDC location, a fuzzy preference relation matrix is constructed to show the degree of preferences of one plant location over another. After that, a smart ranking procedure is anticipated to determine the ranking order of all alternative locations. Finally, a numerical application is presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed approach.

Despite many efforts to prevent traffic accidents, road accident statistics remain a cause of concern throughout the world. After analyzing the possible reasons for this in France, this study seeks to extend the issue of Road Safety to that of a global territorial issue which responds to the characteristics of a complex spatialized system. The methodology used in the ANR CRITERION program merges both interdisciplinary and multi-stakeholder objectives based on an information system that combines approaches formalized by scientists and experts in the field. This methodology combines them by comparing the representations structured around explicit data models and the more empirical concepts expressed by technical experts in charge of local public action. The tool provides a user-friendly mapping formulation of the opinions and conclusions of the partners highlighting the possible correlations between forms and characteristics of the area, road safety measures, accidents and the infrastructure observed in the field. It makes it possible to identify, spatialize, qualify and compare the areas to be processed. This application seeks to elevate the road safety issue and place it among the strategic concerns of territorial management, beyond its current and still minor involvement in urban development plans.

Over the last decades, outsourcing has become important for many organizations. In order to clarify logistics outsourcing relationships, a literature review of existing theoretical and empirical studies was presented. The objective of this research is to describe the relationships between logistics service providers and their customers. It aims at increasing interaction between customers and logistics service providers. In this article, we develop a model of logistics outsourcing and we present hypotheses regarding the antecedents and consequences of trust. Our analysis is based on an extensive survey of the literature on logistics outsourcing relationship.

In our application, and in the context of optimizing the flow of an emergency vehicle in time, we will rely on two tools (mathematics and computer science) in order to avoid delays and risks that characterize the movement of these vehicles. We will use VANET networks as a transmission system to retrieve information about the road incident, and after that, we shall use the Kalman algorithm for tracking our vehicle clarify to specify its position on the predefined path in order to intervene and change its direction towards a safer driving at the same point.

The integration of the environmental dimension is crucial in industrial activity. Designers should integrate the new environmental constraints to adapt their approaches and methodologies in the framework of eco-innovation of industrial products and consumer goods. This paper proposes a new method integrating ecological aspects into the innovation process composed of three main stages: an analysis and structuring of the product, the formalization of the problem and the resolution phase. According to the structuring and the design objectives, actions can be selected and allow to guide the design to the most relevant modification to perform on the product. An illustration of the approach is applied on the optimization of the environmental impacts related to the logistical aspects.

Various formal testing methods have been developed in the past decades. Most of them are based on graphical notations such as finite state machines, labelled transitions systems, etc., which remain quite intuitive for users to perform black box testing. In addition, testing methods based on temporal logics have been also investigated, such as the testing methods inspired by model checking. However, testing with model checkers often needs a model of System Under Test (SUT) to be known. This paper discusses a method for generating test cases from specifications expressed in CTL* temporal logic, under a black-box framework. The test generation process from CTL* is inspired by Banerjee et al.'s work [1] which has developed a technique to generate non-vacuous test scenarios from LTL properties. The essential step of our test generation method is to rewrite a pertinent CTL* property in terms of present state Boolean propositions and X(Next)-guarded temporal properties. The generated test benches are implemented within the ControlBuild tool.
在过去的几十年里，各种形式的测试方法得到了发展。它们中的大多数都是基于图形符号，如有限状态机，标记转换系统等，这对于用户执行黑盒测试来说仍然是非常直观的。此外，还研究了基于时间逻辑的测试方法，如基于模型检验的测试方法。然而，使用模型检查器进行测试通常需要知道被测系统(System Under Test, SUT)的模型。本文讨论了一种在黑盒框架下，由CTL*时态逻辑表示的规范生成测试用例的方法。CTL*的测试生成过程受到Banerjee等人的工作[1]的启发，该工作开发了一种从LTL属性生成非真空测试场景的技术。我们的测试生成方法的基本步骤是根据当前状态布尔命题和X(Next)保护的时间属性重写相关的CTL*属性。生成的测试台在ControlBuild工具中实现。

The aim of this study is to find an efficient method for risk management which take into the complexity of this research area. Indeed, there are several method used in risk management but unfortunately, does not hold the interaction that can exist between risks. To remedy this disadvantage, we think it is useful to use artificial intelligence approaches that focuses on the uncertainty (risks) and the possible relationships between these risks.

In the framework of the European FP7 SECUREMETRO project, the authors have studied the occurrences of terrorist attacks against metro trains with the goal to reduce the number of attacks by making transport systems a less attractive target. In addition to the counter-measures already implemented to increase the resilience to terrorism, the SECUREMETRO project adds another layer of countermeasures aimed at mitigating the effects of an attack to the vehicles, should the others fail to prevent it. This work takes into account the identified common attack methodologies and the behavior of the surviving passengers in order to improve the situation management, assist the evacuation of and rescue to survivors. Moreover, technological improvements to the structure and critical systems of the vehicle have been devised and tested in real situation. This paper focuses particularly on the behavior of people in blast situation, and presents the conclusions of the project on these effects and the related design improvements.
