L’être humain image de Dieu : un thème théologique majeur relu à travers l’anthropologie relationnelle de Jean Ansaldi / Human being as imago Dei : a major thème of theology reread through the relational anthropology of Jean Ansaldi

Laurand, Raphaël François 24 January 2015 (has links)
Véritable théologoumène, l’imago Dei apparait comme un thème majeur de la théologie qui permet d’élaborer une anthropologie théologique. Aussi l’imago Dei a pu connaitre plusieurs interprétations dans l’histoire. Ainsi est-il est possible d’identifier deux grandes catégories d’anthropologies théologiques dans le christianisme contemporain : une anthropologie dite « substantialiste » et une anthropologie dite« relationnelle ». Selon l’anthropologie théologique que l’on rencontre le plus fréquemment, l’homme est défini par une propriété qui lui est commune avec Dieu comme l’intelligence ou la faculté d’aimer. Le but de cette thèse est de montrer, à travers le prisme de l’anthropologie relationnelle sans concession de Jean Ansaldi qui interroge sans cesse la légitimité même de l’imago Dei comme fondement biblique d’une anthropologie chrétienne, que cette anthropologie qui semble la plus classique n’est en fait qu’une parenthèse dans l’histoire du christianisme qui, de l’écriture de la Bible jusqu’à la théologie contemporaine, perçoit l’être humain avant tout comme vis-à-vis de Dieu, altérité représentant le Tout Autre, être qui est relation comme Dieu est en lui-même relation. / Theologoumenon true, imago Dei appears as a major theme of theology that allows to develop a theologica anthropology. Imago Dei also could know several interpretations in history. Thus it is possible to identify two broad categories of theological anthropology in contemporary Christianity : a so-called "substantialist" anthropology and called "relational" anthropology. According to theological anthropology that the most frequently encountered, man is defined by a property that is common with God as the intelligence or the ability to love. The aim of this thesis is to show, through the prism of relational anthropology uncompromising Jean Ansaldi who constantly questions the legitimacy of imago Dei as a biblical foundation of a Christian anthropology, anthropology seems that the classic is actually a parenthesis in the history of Christianity, writing of the Bible to contemporary theology sees the human being as primarily vis-à-vis God alterity while representing the Other, which is being relationship as God is in himself relationship.

Minimizing Overhead for Fault Tolerance in Event Stream Processing Systems

Martin, André 20 September 2016 (has links) (PDF)
Event Stream Processing (ESP) is a well-established approach for low-latency data processing enabling users to quickly react to relevant situations in soft real-time. In order to cope with the sheer amount of data being generated each day and to cope with fluctuating workloads originating from data sources such as Twitter and Facebook, such systems must be highly scalable and elastic. Hence, ESP systems are typically long running applications deployed on several hundreds of nodes in either dedicated data-centers or cloud environments such as Amazon EC2. In such environments, nodes are likely to fail due to software aging, process or hardware errors whereas the unbounded stream of data asks for continuous processing. In order to cope with node failures, several fault tolerance approaches have been proposed in literature. Active replication and rollback recovery-based on checkpointing and in-memory logging (upstream backup) are two commonly used approaches in order to cope with such failures in the context of ESP systems. However, these approaches suffer either from a high resource footprint, low throughput or unresponsiveness due to long recovery times. Moreover, in order to recover applications in a precise manner using exactly once semantics, the use of deterministic execution is required which adds another layer of complexity and overhead. The goal of this thesis is to lower the overhead for fault tolerance in ESP systems. We first present StreamMine3G, our ESP system we built entirely from scratch in order to study and evaluate novel approaches for fault tolerance and elasticity. We then present an approach to reduce the overhead of deterministic execution by using a weak, epoch-based rather than strict ordering scheme for commutative and tumbling windowed operators that allows applications to recover precisely using active or passive replication. Since most applications are running in cloud environments nowadays, we furthermore propose an approach to increase the system availability by efficiently utilizing spare but paid resources for fault tolerance. Finally, in order to free users from the burden of choosing the correct fault tolerance scheme for their applications that guarantees the desired recovery time while still saving resources, we present a controller-based approach that adapts fault tolerance at runtime. We furthermore showcase the applicability of our StreamMine3G approach using real world applications and examples.

Hybrid Differential Software Testing

Noller, Yannic 16 October 2020 (has links)
Differentielles Testen ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Qualitätssicherung von Software, mit dem Ziel Testeingaben zu generieren, die Unterschiede im Verhalten der Software deutlich machen. Solche Unterschiede können zwischen zwei Ausführungspfaden (1) in unterschiedlichen Programmversionen, aber auch (2) im selben Programm auftreten. In dem ersten Fall werden unterschiedliche Programmversionen mit der gleichen Eingabe untersucht, während bei dem zweiten Fall das gleiche Programm mit unterschiedlichen Eingaben analysiert wird. Die Regressionsanalyse, die Side-Channel Analyse, das Maximieren der Ausführungskosten eines Programms und die Robustheitsanalyse von Neuralen Netzwerken sind typische Beispiele für differentielle Softwareanalysen. Eine besondere Herausforderung liegt in der effizienten Analyse von mehreren Programmpfaden (auch über mehrere Programmvarianten hinweg). Die existierenden Ansätze sind dabei meist nicht (spezifisch) dafür konstruiert, unterschiedliches Verhalten präzise hervorzurufen oder sind auf einen Teil des Suchraums limitiert. Diese Arbeit führt das Konzept des hybriden differentiellen Software Testens (HyDiff) ein: eine hybride Analysetechnik für die Generierung von Eingaben zur Erkennung von semantischen Unterschieden in Software. HyDiff besteht aus zwei parallel laufenden Komponenten: (1) einem such-basierten Ansatz, der effizient Eingaben generiert und (2) einer systematischen Analyse, die auch komplexes Programmverhalten erreichen kann. Die such-basierte Komponente verwendet Fuzzing geleitet durch differentielle Heuristiken. Die systematische Analyse basiert auf Dynamic Symbolic Execution, das konkrete Eingaben bei der Analyse integrieren kann. HyDiff wird anhand mehrerer Experimente evaluiert, die in spezifischen Anwendungen im Bereich des differentiellen Testens ausgeführt werden. Die Resultate zeigen eine effektive Generierung von Testeingaben durch HyDiff, wobei es sich signifikant besser als die einzelnen Komponenten verhält. / Differential software testing is important for software quality assurance as it aims to automatically generate test inputs that reveal behavioral differences in software. The concrete analysis procedure depends on the targeted result: differential testing can reveal divergences between two execution paths (1) of different program versions or (2) within the same program. The first analysis type would execute different program versions with the same input, while the second type would execute the same program with different inputs. Therefore, detecting regression bugs in software evolution, analyzing side-channels in programs, maximizing the execution cost of a program over multiple executions, and evaluating the robustness of neural networks are instances of differential software analysis with the goal to generate diverging executions of program paths. The key challenge of differential software testing is to simultaneously reason about multiple program paths, often across program variants, in an efficient way. Existing work in differential testing is often not (specifically) directed to reveal a different behavior or is limited to a subset of the search space. This PhD thesis proposes the concept of Hybrid Differential Software Testing (HyDiff) as a hybrid analysis technique to generate difference revealing inputs. HyDiff consists of two components that operate in a parallel setup: (1) a search-based technique that inexpensively generates inputs and (2) a systematic exploration technique to also exercise deeper program behaviors. HyDiff’s search-based component uses differential fuzzing directed by differential heuristics. HyDiff’s systematic exploration component is based on differential dynamic symbolic execution that allows to incorporate concrete inputs in its analysis. HyDiff is evaluated experimentally with applications specific for differential testing. The results show that HyDiff is effective in all considered categories and outperforms its components in isolation.

Figura rerum : 'the pattern of the glory' : the theological contributions of Charles Williams

Blair, Paul S. January 2014 (has links)
This thesis seeks to show that Charles Williams makes a significant contribution to theology, and it demonstrates the nature of that contribution. A pattern of theological themes centering on the Incarnation, emphasizing the humanity of Christ, is repeated throughout his works. For Williams, human beings are images of the coinherent Godhead. His theological anthropology further develops through his understanding of imaging, as shown for instance in the Incarnation, and in Dante's characterization of Beatrice as a God bearer. His view of images is built from Coleridge's understanding of the nature of a symbol. This picture of imaging is widely applied, first and foremost to relationships of love, seen as potential incarnate images of grace. Williams seeks to extend his picture to all relationships and, further, to whatever man must do to go beyond himself to an encounter with God. He believes that man is responsible for his brother, in practice by bearing his brother's burdens, with substitutionary acts of vicarious love. A further part of his thinking then views people as living in coinherent relationships, and the universe as a web of coinherent relations. He draws his examples of natural coinherent relations from the world of commerce with its exchange and substitution of labors and from the child living within its mother, and builds a picture of what he calls the City, a broader coinherent society. Coinherence begins and flows from the Trinity and the Incarnation and then is found in relationships between God and man: in the Church, in the future City of God, and in all Creation. The Fall brings about the breakdown of the coinherence of God and man and man and man, and that breakdown is a central characteristic of sin. Williams believes that a regenerated coinherence in Christ brings about a renewal of mankind.

Extending the Functionality of Score-P through Plugins: Interfaces and Use Cases

Schöne, Robert, Tschüter, Ronny, Ilsche, Thomas, Schuchart, Joseph, Hackenberg, Daniel, Nagel, Wolfgang E. 18 October 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Performance measurement and runtime tuning tools are both vital in the HPC software ecosystem and use similar techniques: the analyzed application is interrupted at specific events and information on the current system state is gathered to be either recorded or used for tuning. One of the established performance measurement tools is Score-P. It supports numerous HPC platforms and parallel programming paradigms. To extend Score-P with support for different back-ends, create a common framework for measurement and tuning of HPC applications, and to enable the re-use of common software components such as implemented instrumentation techniques, this paper makes the following contributions: (I) We describe the Score-P metric plugin interface, which enables programmers to augment the event stream with metric data from supplementary data sources that are otherwise not accessible for Score-P. (II) We introduce the flexible Score-P substrate plugin interface that can be used for custom processing of the event stream according to the specific requirements of either measurement, analysis, or runtime tuning tasks. (III) We provide examples for both interfaces that extend Score-P’s functionality for monitoring and tuning purposes.

Quantitative Modeling and Verification of Evolving Software

Getir Yaman, Sinem 15 September 2021 (has links)
Mit der steigenden Nachfrage nach Innovationen spielt Software in verschiedenenWirtschaftsbereichen eine wichtige Rolle, wie z.B. in der Automobilindustrie, bei intelligenten Systemen als auch bei Kommunikationssystemen. Daher ist die Qualität für die Softwareentwicklung von großer Bedeutung. Allerdings ändern sich die probabilistische Modelle (die Qualitätsbewertungsmodelle) angesichts der dynamischen Natur moderner Softwaresysteme. Dies führt dazu, dass ihre Übergangswahrscheinlichkeiten im Laufe der Zeit schwanken, welches zu erheblichen Problemen führt. Dahingehend werden probabilistische Modelle im Hinblick auf ihre Laufzeit kontinuierlich aktualisiert. Eine fortdauernde Neubewertung komplexer Wahrscheinlichkeitsmodelle ist jedoch teuer. In letzter Zeit haben sich inkrementelle Ansätze als vielversprechend für die Verifikation von adaptiven Systemen erwiesen. Trotzdem wurden bei der Bewertung struktureller Änderungen im Modell noch keine wesentlichen Verbesserungen erzielt. Wahrscheinlichkeitssysteme werden als Automaten modelliert, wie bei Markov-Modellen. Solche Modelle können in Matrixform dargestellt werden, um die Gleichungen basierend auf Zuständen und Übergangswahrscheinlichkeiten zu lösen. Laufzeitmodelle wie Matrizen sind nicht signifikant, um die Auswirkungen von Modellveränderungen erkennen zu können. In dieser Arbeit wird ein Framework unter Verwendung stochastischer Bäume mit regulären Ausdrücken entwickelt, welches modular aufgebaut ist und eine aktionshaltige sowie probabilistische Logik im Kontext der Modellprüfung aufweist. Ein solches modulares Framework ermöglicht dem Menschen die Entwicklung der Änderungsoperationen für die inkrementelle Berechnung lokaler Änderungen, die im Modell auftreten können. Darüber hinaus werden probabilistische Änderungsmuster beschrieben, um eine effiziente inkrementelle Verifizierung, unter Verwendung von Bäumen mit regulären Ausdrücken, anwenden zu können. Durch die Bewertung der Ergebnisse wird der Vorgang abgeschlossen. / Software plays an innovative role in many different domains, such as car industry, autonomous and smart systems, and communication. Hence, the quality of the software is of utmost importance and needs to be properly addressed during software evolution. Several approaches have been developed to evaluate systems’ quality attributes, such as reliability, safety, and performance of software. Due to the dynamic nature of modern software systems, probabilistic models representing the quality of the software and their transition probabilities change over time and fluctuate, leading to a significant problem that needs to be solved to obtain correct evaluation results of quantitative properties. Probabilistic models need to be continually updated at run-time to solve this issue. However, continuous re-evaluation of complex probabilistic models is expensive. Recently, incremental approaches have been found to be promising for the verification of evolving and self-adaptive systems. Nevertheless, substantial improvements have not yet been achieved for evaluating structural changes in the model. Probabilistic systems are usually represented in a matrix form to solve the equations based on states and transition probabilities. On the other side, evolutionary changes can create various effects on theese models and force them to re-verify the whole system. Run-time models, such as matrices or graph representations, lack the expressiveness to identify the change effect on the model. In this thesis, we develop a framework using stochastic regular expression trees, which are modular, with action-based probabilistic logic in the model checking context. Such a modular framework enables us to develop change operations for the incremental computation of local changes that can occur in the model. Furthermore, we describe probabilistic change patterns to apply efficient incremental quantitative verification using stochastic regular expression trees and evaluate our results.
