O objetivo deste estudo foi compreender os conceitos e estratégias que norteiam a assistência dos profissionais que atuam em um Centro de Atenção Psicossocial para atendimento de pacientes com transtornos, decorrentes do uso e dependência de substâncias psicoativas, na tentativa de subsidiar as ações dos demais serviços de saúde que atendem tais pacientes. Optou-se pela pesquisa qualitativa, seguindo a metodologia de estudo de caso; assim, nove profissionais foram entrevistados e o eixo norteador das questões foi referente à concepção de serviço e as ações assistenciais ali desenvolvidas. Os dados foram analisados à luz do conceito da representação social. Valendo-se dos temas emergentes foram elaboradas duas representações centrais da pesquisa: Concepção sobre o serviço de atenção psicossocial. Ações assistenciais aos pacientes com transtornos decorrentes de uso prejudicial e ou dependência de álcool e outras drogas. A análise final orienta-se para a compreensão de que o uso prejudicial do álcool e outras drogas decorrem de fatores multifacetados, propondo nessa linha de raciocínio a assistência psicossocial / The purpose of this study is to understand concepts and strategies that orient the assistance to professionals working in a Center of Psychosocial Attention to assist patients with disorders due to use and addiction of psychoactive substances, in the attempt to support actions of other health services which assist these patients. A qualitative research was our choice following the methodology of a case study. Nine professionals were interviewed and the interviews were based on questions aiming service and the assistance actions developed in the same institutions. Data were analyzed under the point of view of the social representation. Considering the emergent issue, two central representations of the research were elaborated: conception on the service of psychosocial attention. Assistance actions to patients with disorders due to the harmful use and/or addiction to alcohol and other drugs. The final analysis is oriented towards the comprehension that the harmful use of alcohol and other drugs are caused by varied factors, proposing a psychosocial assistance

De nombreuses applications industrielles spécifiques dans les secteurs tels que l'automobile, le médical et le spatial, requièrent un très haut niveau de fiabilité. Ce type d'applications fonctionnant sous des contraintes sévères (haute température, corrosion, vibration, radiations,…) impose aux industriels des spécifications particulières en termes de fiabilité et de consommation d'énergie. Dans ce contexte, les travaux menés ont pour objectif d'étudier la fiabilité des mémoires Flash embarquées pour des applications faible consommation et à forte contrainte de fiabilité. Après une introduction orientée sur les deux volets d'étude que sont la caractérisation électrique et le test de mémoires non volatiles, un modèle physique capable de modéliser le courant de SILC a été développé. Cet outil permet de répondre à la problématique de perturbations en lecture (read disturb) et donne aux designers et technologues un moyen d'estimer le taux de défaillance de cellules mémoires en fonction de paramètres physiques, géométriques et électriques ainsi que des moyens d'action afin de minimiser ce phénomène indésirable. La fiabilité (oxyde tunnel, endurance) et les performances (consommation énergétique) de la cellule Flash sont ensuite étudiées en explorant les variations de paramètres du procédé de fabrication et des conditions électriques de fonctionnement. Enfin, une étude originale menée en temps réel sur plus de 15 mois est consacrée à la fiabilité en rétention des mémoires Flash soumises aux effets des particules radiatives présentes dans l'environnement naturel terrestre. / Many specific applications used in automotive, medical and spatial activity domains, require a very high level of reliability. These kinds of applications, working under severe constraints (high temperature, corrosion, vibration, radiations…) challenge memory manufacturers and impose them particular specifications in terms of reliability and energy consumption. In this context, work presented in this thesis aim at studying embedded Flash memories reliability for low power and high reliability applications. After an introduction oriented on areas of electrical characterizations and Test of non-volatile memories, a physical model of SILC leakage current is developed. This tool is used to answer to disturbs problematic and gives to designers and technologists a way to estimate the failure rate of memory cells according to physical, geometrical and electrical parameters, giving leads to minimize this unwanted phenomenon. Reliability (tunnel oxide, cell endurance) and performances (energy consumption) of Flash memory cell are then studied exploring process parameters variations and electrical conditions optimizations. Finally, an original real-time experiment over more than 15 months is focused on Flash memories retention reliability due to irradiative particles effects of natural terrestrial environment.

This thesis is an investigation into the nature of the 'postmodern' narrative strategies and fictional methods in the work of two British Catholic writers. The work of David Lodge and Muriel Spark is here taken as an example ofthe 'Catholic novel'. In order to determine ifthe overlap ofpostmodern. and Christian-influenced narrative strategies constitutes more than a convergence or coincidence of formal concerns, narrative form in these novels is analyzed in the light of neo-Tho mist and Tho mist aesthetics, a traditional Catholic Christian theory of the arts. The 'postmodern' in these 'Christian' texts becomes largely a coincidence of terminology. Narrative forms which can be classified as 'postmodern' can also be categorized using the terminology of Thomas Aquinas. The apparent similarities betray radically divergent metaphysical presuppositions, however. The nature of the Catholic 'difference' lies in the way postmodern forms are used to challenge the metaphysical bases of those forms. / English Studies / M.A. (English)
