ICARE-S2: Infrastructure de confiance sur des architectures de Réseaux pour les services de signature évoluée

Frausto Bernal, Paul Axayacatl 12 1900 (has links) (PDF)
Actuellement, de plus en plus d'ordinateurs sont interconnectés à l'Internet ou à des réseaux locaux. Il est donc indispensable de partager et de protéger l'information de façon performante. Pour accélérer et favoriser le développement de nouvelles applications et services autour des transactions électroniques, la sécurité devient une priorité. L'infrastructure de gestion de clés (IGC) est une réponse conçue pour assurer la sécurité des transactions électroniques et permettre l'échange de renseignements sensibles entre des parties qui n'ont pas établi au préalable de liens. La signature électronique est un service de base des IGC qui permet l'authentification, la confidentialité, l'intégrité et la non-répudiation de la transaction électronique. Elle devient une composante fondamentale des transactions sécurisées. Elle pourra bientôt se substituer légalement à la signature écrite. Dans ce contexte, notre objectif est de contribuer au développement et à la création de nouveaux e-services nécessaires à la croissance des transactions électroniques: la certification de rôles associés à la signature (pour connaître les privilèges du signataire aux moyens de la définition d'un rôle), l'habilitation et la délégation de signature (pour que quelqu'un puisse donner l'autorisation à quelqu'un d'autre d'exercer un pouvoir à sa place et donner l'autorisation de transférer ce pouvoir à un tiers), la signature électronique contrôlée (pour indiquer qui peut signer un document et contrôler la séquence et les priorités des signatures) et enfin les métadonnées de droits d'accès (pour définir les droits d'accès à un document indépendamment du système d'exploitation utilisé). Une infrastructure de confiance est nécessaire pour prendre en compte ces e-services. Nous proposons l'infrastructure ICARE-S2 (Infrastructure de Confiance sur des Architectures de RésEaux pour les Services de Signature évoluée ) basée sur les principes associés à l'infrastructure de gestion de privilèges et l'infrastructure de gestion de clés, un certificat d'attribut encodé en XML supporté par cette architecture, ainsi que la spécification de ces différents e-services utilisant ce type de certificat. Concrètement, l'infrastructure ICARE-S2 propose un système couvrant les principales fonctions de sécurité nécessaires à un processus transactionnel. De l'authentification et la gestion des droits des utilisateurs et des composants, en passant par le chiffrement des informations, et la gestion de l'intégrité des messages par le biais de certificats électroniques. Une partie de ces travaux a été financée par le projet RNRT ICARE.

A Combined Modelling and Experimental Study of the Surface Energetics of a-Lactose Monohydrate

Saxena, A., Kendrick, John, Grimsey, Ian M., Roberts, R., York, Peter January 2009 (has links)
No / The surface energy of a-lactose monohydrate measured by inverse gas chromatography (IGC) is reported along with a dynamic molecular modelling study of the interaction of the various molecular probes with different surfaces of a-lactose monohydrate. The IGC results show that a-lactose monohydrate is acidic in nature. Using quantitative calculations of the energy of adsorption, the acidic nature of the surface is confirmed and the calculated values agree closely with the experimentally measured values. Along with the acidic nature, dynamic molecular modelling also reveals that the presence of a channel and water molecules on a surface affects the surface energetics of that face. The presence of water on the surface can decrease or increase the surface energy by either blocking or attracting a probe molecule, respectively. This property of water depends on its position and association with other functional groups present on the surface. The effect of a channel or cavity on the surface energy is shown to depend on its size, which determines whether the functional groups in the channel are assessable by probe molecules or not. Overall molecular modelling explains, at the molecular level, the effect of different factors affecting the surface energy of individual faces of the crystal.

Governança corporativa e otimização de portfolios: a relação entre risco e retorno e boas práticas de governança / Corporate governance and portfolios optimization: the relation between risk and return and good governance practices

Sirqueira, Aieda Batistela de 10 August 2007 (has links)
O objetivo deste trabalho é verificar se ações de companhias que adotam boas práticas de governança corporativa proporcionam maiores retornos e menor risco aos investidores ao compará-las com ações de empresas que não se comprometeram a adotar tais práticas. Para cumprir este objetivo são utilizados três modelos de otimização de portfolios. O primeiro modelo, o modelo Maxmin, maximiza o menor retorno mensal, enquanto o segundo maximiza o retorno anual. Já o terceiro modelo minimiza o desvio médio absoluto da carteira, que é considerado como uma medida de risco. Todos os modelos serão solucionados por métodos de programação linear (PL), em que não é considerado o número de ações da carteira, e de programação inteira mista (PIM), em que são inseridas restrições nos modelos que permitem especificar o número mínimo e máximo de ações. Os modelos são aplicados para uma carteira composta por ações que estão no IGC e para uma carteira formada por ações que estão no IBOVESPA. Os resultados obtidos para as duas carteiras são comparados, buscando evidenciar a idéia de que a boa governança corporativa está relacionada com maiores retornos e menores riscos. Neste sentido, o presente trabalho busca verificar empiricamente se, realmente, as ações de empresas com boa governança proporcionam maiores retornos e menor risco aos acionistas e, desta forma, fornecer novas informações que contribuam com o conhecimento e maior desenvolvimento do tema. Os resultados deste trabalho evidenciam o melhor desempenho da carteira formada pelas ações do IGC, que apresentaram maiores retornos e menores riscos. Diante destes resultados, há indícios de que o compromisso com práticas adicionais de boa governança corporativa pode estar proporcionando maior retorno e menor risco. / The objective of this work is to verify if shares of companies that adopt good corporate governance practice provides greater returns and lower risks to investors when compared with shares of companies that do not adopt these set of practices. Three optimization portfolios models were used to accomplish this objective. The first model, the maxmin model, maximizes the smallest monthly return, while the second maximizes the annual return. The third model minimizes the mean absolute deviation, which is considered a risk measure. All the models will be solved by linear programming (LP) methods, when it is not possible to determinate the number of shares in the portfolio, and mixed integer programming (MIP) methods, in which are inserted constraints that permit specify the minimum number and maximum number of shares in the models. The three models are applied to a portfolio formed by shares that are in IGC and to a portfolio formed by shares that are in IBOVESPA. The obtained results for both portfolios will be compared, willing to evidence the idea that good corporate governance is related with greater returns and lower risks. This study has the purpose to verify empirically if shares of companies with good governance provides greater returns and lower risks to investors and, this way, supplies new information that contribute with knowledge and greater development of the theme. The results of this work show that the better performance of portfolio formed by shares of IGC, that presented greater returns and lower risks. According to these results, there are indicators that the commitment with additional corporate governance practices can be providing greater returns and lower risks.

Interactions entre morphologies, acidités et diffusion dans les zéolithes beta : éléments de réponse par spectroscopie infrarouge, réactions modèles et chromatographie à flux inversés / Interactions between morphologies, acidities and diffusion in beta zeolites : highlighted parameters using infrared spectroscopy, model reactions and reversed-flow inverse gas chromatography

Benghalem, Mohammed Amine 07 December 2017 (has links)
Dans le but d'étudier l'impact de la taille et de la morphologie de cristaux zéolitiques sur les propriétés texturales, chimiques et diffusionnelles, une série de zéolithe beta a été étudiée.L'augmentation logique des surfaces et des volumes poreux avec la diminution de la taille des cristaux est constatée. En outre, cela implique également une baisse de l'acidité globale ainsi que de la force des sites. Toutefois, la compréhension de l'acidité complexe de ces matériaux nécessite des techniques poussées de caractérisation.L'adsorption de molécules sondes (pyridine, CO, éthylène) suivie par infrarouge ainsi que la thermodésorption d'ammoniac ont été corrélées à des réactions modèles de transformation de l'éthanol et de craquage du n-hexane. Lors de celui-ci, la morphologie des cristaux a peu d'influence et les performances sont dictées par les sites de Brønsted. La présence d'aluminiums extra-réseaux permet d'exalter la force acide des sites protoniques. Avec la transformation de l'éthanol, de meilleures activités et stabilités sont observées dans le cas de zéolithes hiérarchisées.L'étude de la diffusion par chromatographie en phase gaz à flux inversées (RF-IGC) a permis de montrer que, si les coefficients de diffusion augmentent à l'opposé de la taille des cristaux, la porosité secondaire réduit le chemin diffusionnel. De plus, les sites faibles majoritairement présents sur les matériaux hiérarchisés facilitent la désorption des molécules et sont impliqués dans les interactions latérales mesurées par RF-IGC.Ce travail apporte donc des éléments de réponse à la stabilité et aux comportements catalytiques complexes observés sur la zéolithe beta. / In order to study the impact of the size and morphology of zeolite crystals on the textural, chemical and diffusion properties, a series of beta zeolites was studied.The logical increase of the porous surfaces and volumes with the decrease in crystal size is observed. In addition, this also implies a decrease in the overall acidity as well as strength of the adsorption sites. However, understanding the complex acidity of these materials requires advanced characterization techniques.The adsorption of probe molecules (pyridine, CO, ethylene) followed by infrared as well as ammonia thermodesorption were correlated to model reactions of ethanol conversion and n-hexane cracking. In this case, the morphology of the crystals has little influence and performance is mainly dictated by the Brønsted sites. The presence of extra-framework aluminums makes it possible to exalt the acid strength of the protonic sites. With the transformation of ethanol, better activities and stabilities are observed in the case of hierarchical zeolites.The study of diffusion by the reversed-flow gas chromatography (RF-IGC) showed that if the diffusion coefficients increase as opposed to crystal size, the secondary porosity reduces the diffusion path. Moreover, the weak sites predominantly present on the hierarchized materials facilitate the desorption of the molecules and are involved in the lateral interactions measured by RF-IGC.This work thus provides elements of response to the stability and the complex catalytic behaviors observed on the beta zeolite.

Charakterizace poly(1,4-diethynylbenzen)u metodou IGC / Characterization of poly(1,4-diethynylbenzene) by IGC method

Petrášová, Sabina January 2011 (has links)
Poly(1,4-diethynylbenzene) ( -conjugated polymer) was prepared as an insoluble polymer network via chain coordination polymerization of 1,4-diethynylbezene catalyzed with [Rh(NBD)acac] complex. Thermodynamic properties and acid-base characteristics of the prepared poly(1,4-diethynylbenzene) were studied by means of Inverse Gas Chromatography (IGC) in the temperature range 80-100 řC. Retention data of selected testing substances were used to determine the Gibbs energy of sorption, the sorption enthalpy and their acid-base and disperse parts as well as the disperse contribution to the surface energy and parameters of KA, KD, ANHPS and DNHPS quantifying the acid-base character of the studied polymer. The results showed that poly(1,4-diethynylbenzene) interacted more efficiently with Lewis bases than with Lewis acids. The values of experimental sorption enthalpy were used for the determination of the parameters KA and KD. Values of these parameters classify poly(1,4-diethynylbenzene) as the material with a slightly acid character. This conclusion is further supported by the results of H. P. Schreiber method based on the application of ANHPS and DNHPS parameters for the evaluation of the acid-base properties of the material. The infrared spectroscopy proved that poly(1,4-diethynylbenzene) contained...
