The Papyrus Portal is a project that aims to provide the user with an efficient and effective search of all digitized and electronically catalogued papyrus collections in Germany, and a unified presentation of the search results with the most important information on the particular papyrus. This includes links to the local home databases which have more details on each piece. The Papyrus Portal unites the different information technologies of the original databases and presents the search results in a standard format. A conventiontional format for the recording of the metadata has been established.

No / We present an automated technique for comparison of magnetic field inversion-line maps from SOHO/MDI magnetograms with solar filament data from the Solar Feature Catalogue created as part of the European Grid of Solar Observations project. The Euclidean distance transform and connected component labelling are used to identify nearest inversion lines to filament skeletons. Several filament inversion-line characteristics are defined and used to automate the decision whether a particular filament/inversion-line pair is suitable for quantitative comparison of orientation and separation. The technique is tested on 551 filaments from 14 H¿ images at various dates, and the distributions of angles and distances between filament skeletons and line-of-sight (LOS) magnetic inversion lines are presented for six levels of magnetic field smoothing. The results showed the robustness of the developed technique which can be applied for a statistical analysis of magnetic field in the vicinity of filaments. The method accuracy is limited by the static filament detection which does not distinguish between filaments, fibrils, pre-condensations and filament barbs and this may increase the asymmetries in magnetic distributions and broadening in angular distributions that requires the incorporation of a feature tracking technique.

The mental space in which the architect formulates, tests, and cultivates an idea is deformed by memory, so that nothing projected into this space is bereft of association. However, neither is this space constrained by physical reality, allowing the architect a certain freedom to visualize the totality of an object and the world in which it is projected, simultaneously and in suspension: a space between memory and imagination. Memories and experiences layer richness upon this inner world and form the context for its manifestation; its realization. The deliberate and conscientious curation of this inner world-- the architect as archivist of memory and experience-- is an essential practice for the development of the architect and the worlds in which they operate. / Master of Architecture

Peintre d’histoire actif dès le début de la Restauration jusqu’au Second Empire, membre de l’Académie des beaux-arts et officier de la Légion d’honneur, Auguste Couder représente parfaitement toute une génération d’artistes reconnus de leur vivant, mais oubliés par la suite. Méconnue de nos jours, son œuvre, riche et variée, mérite pourtant d’être redécouverte. Elève fidèle de David, fortement marqué par l’enseignement de son maître, Couder se distingua en tant qu’un excellent dessinateur qui ne négligeait pas pour autant la couleur. Sollicité pour de nombreuses commandes officielles et privées, il réalisa un grand nombre d’œuvres inspirées tantôt de l’histoire – aussi bien antique que nationale, tantôt de la religion ou de la littérature. Peintre prolifique, exposant régulièrement aux Salons des années 1814-1848, il participa également à plusieurs travaux de décoration d’édifices civils et religieux. Pourtant, jusqu’à présent, sa création ne fit l’objet d’aucune étude. Cette thèse a pour objectif de combler cette lacune, en retraçant la carrière de Couder d’une part, et en établissant le premier catalogue raisonné de son œuvre, d’autre part. Comprenant près de 400 peintures et dessins, dont plusieurs sont inédits, ce catalogue met en évidence la richesse de la création artistique de Couder laquelle retrouve ainsi sa place dans l’histoire de la peinture du XIXe siècle. / Auguste Couder, a historical painter active from the outset of the French Restauration to the Second Empire, a member of the Académie des beaux-arts (Academy of Fine Arts) and an Officer of the Legion of Honour, is a true representative of a whole generation of painters who were recognised as such during their lifetime but forgotten afterwards. Little known today, his works, abundant and varied, well deserve to be rediscovered. As a loyal student of David whose teaching greatly influenced him, Couder stood out as an excellent drawer but was nevertheless much interested in colours. He was commissioned numerous orders, from official and private sources, for paintings of a historical nature – both ancient and national – and inspired by religion and literature. A prolific artist, he participated regularly in the Salon held between 1814 and 1848 ; he also took part in several decorative works for official and religious edifices. Yet, his works have never been the subject of any study. The object of the present thesis is to remedy this situation by reviewing his whole career as well as drawing up, for the first time, a full descriptive catalogue of his works. This catalogue, which comprises some 400 paintings and drawings – several of which are unpublished, highlights the rich creation of Couder, reinstating him in the history of the 19th century arts.

L’objectif principal de cette étude est de mettre à jour l’œuvre de Sébastien Le Camus († 1677), un nom derrière lequel se cache également celui de son fils, Charles Le Camus († 1717), lui-même compositeur. Les 32 airs connus du père ont été rassemblés dans un recueil d’auteur posthume publié en 1678 à l’initiative du fils. En faisant appel à la métaphore du cercle avec ce recueil au centre, nous parcourons, en périphérie, l’ensemble des sources écrites qui permettaient la diffusion du genre de l’air, sérieux et spirituel, dans la seconde moitié du XVIIe siècle et au début du XVIIIe siècle : les recueils collectifs musicaux et poétiques imprimés chez Ballard, les manuscrits conservés en France et à l’étranger, un roman – Clélie de Madeleine de Scudéry – et un périodique, le Mercure galant. Les 211 airs de Sébastien et Charles Le Camus collectés à ce jour ont été détachés de ces sources pour être maintenant rassemblés dans un catalogue (vol. 3) et dans une édition musicale moderne (vol. 4). La dynastie en miniature amène à s’interroger à la fois sur l’objet « partition » et sur la notion d’auteur, questionnée puis mise au centre de notre étude (vol. 1 et 2). En maniant finement cette notion plastique, nous offrons au musicien et au musicologue une analyse tant du contexte de création des airs que du matériau musical en tant que tel. Cette analyse, qui propose un va-et-vient entre la théorie et la pratique contemporaines de nos auteurs, amène à voir l’air comme un genre en mouvement dont la vie dépend tant de son succès dans les réseaux de sociabilité que de sa faculté à être composé, décomposé et recomposé pour s’adapter aux circonstances de son exécution. / The main goal of this study is to unveil the work of Sébastien Le Camus († 1677), behind whose name one also finds that of his son, Charles Le Camus († 1717), himself a composer. A collection of the father’s 32 known airs was published posthumously in 1678 upon the son’s initiative. By means of a metaphor, where that collection is at the centre of a circle, we navigate on the circle’s periphery through the set of written sources that allowed for diffusion of the genre of the French air, both secular and sacred, in the second half of the 17th century and at the beginning of the 18th century: The collections of airs and song-texts published by Ballard, the manuscripts kept in France and abroad, a novel – Clélie by Madeleine de Scudéry – and a periodical, the Mercure galant. The 211 airs by Sébastien and Charles Le Camus collected to date, extracted from those sources, are now gathered in a catalogue (vol.3) and in a modern music edition (vol.4). The miniature dynasty leads to explore the « score » as an object as well as the notion of author, first questioned and then set at the core of our study (vol.1 and 2). By subtle handling of that flexible notion, we offer to musicians and musicologists an analysis of both the airs’ creation context and the music material itself. This analysis, based on a constant dialogue between the theory and the practice of our authors’ time, leads to viewing the air as a dynamic genre whose life depends on its success within social milieus as much as on its ability to be composed, decomposed and recomposed according to the requirements of its performance context.

Automatic publication of data and metadata for map and catalogue systems from raster sources in PostgreSQL Abstract The main goal of the presented work is the design and implementation of the application for the automatic publication of the raster data and metadata from the PostgreSQL database to the map and catalog services. The application should exclusively utilize the open source software and technologies. The fundamental component of the developed application is the PostgreSQL database with the PostGIS and PostGIS raster extensions. The presented work evaluates the possibilities of the raster storage from different points of view -e.g. the suitability for the further data processing or the publication of the raster data. The most suitable structure for raster storage is then proposed with respect to analytical and publication usage of the stored data. The possibilities of the open source software for the solution and implementation of the presented problem are then inspected. The GeoNetwork and GeoServer are utilized as a metadata and map server solution. The results of the deployment of these technologies is then evaluated for the real world data and compared with other available related solutions. Keywords: PostGIS, PostGIS raster, GeoServer, GeoNetwork opensource, metadata, web map services, OGC,...

Therefore there is a need to introduce a new product, which will help to order books through catalogue and having them delivered by post, saving both, time and energy. The thesis is based on actual experience and its conclusions can be used in business practice.

Este trabalho tem como objeto a obra do violonista Othon Salleiro (1910-1999). O objetivo desta pesquisa é analisar, recuperar e contextualizar a produção do compositor carioca dentro do panorama do violão popular brasileiro. Através da apreciação de sua obra, da transcrição das gravações disponíveis e da análise comparativa dos violonistas compositores do mesmo período, procuramos traçar a identidade composicional e instrumental de Othon Salleiro. Lembramos que se trata de uma produção exclusivamente para violão solo. Além da catalogação das obras encontradas, a confecção das partituras foi a nossa contribuição para recuperar e divulgar a obra deste importante compositor do cenário do violão popular brasileiro. / This study focuses on the work of guitarist Othon Salleiro (1910- 1999). The purpose of this study is to analyze, recover and provide context for the work produced by the composer from Rio de Janeiro within the scenario of Brazilian popular guitar music. By examining his work, transcribing available recordings and doing a comparative analysis of composer guitarists of the same period we tried to outline the composing and instrumental identity of Othon Salleiro. We remind you that his work is exclusively for solo guitar. In addition to cataloguing the music found, making sheet music was our contribution to recover and make known the work of this important Brazilian popular guitar composer.
