Abstract: A hydraulic jump (1) is created at the free surface (2) of a liquid subjected to a flow over a surface (23) which declines towards a liquid outlet region, and where the supply is made by the overflow of a supply system (3), and where an element (24) rises above the flow surface (23) to form a retention volume (27) of the liquid before it is drained. The liquid may be recycled. The jump (1) may or may not be stable. The invention may be applied to the creation of artificial waves for simulation devices, ornamental fountains or swimming pools.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a scheduling method in a multi-user communication system. Said method categorises packets from different users as urgent packets and non-urgent packets, assigns to urgent packets the transmission resources for obtaining the best link qualities by giving preference to the most urgent packets, assigns to non-urgent packets the remaining resources, and transmits each non-urgent packet with a transmission power lower than that which would be necessary for transmitting it with a maximum spectral efficiency, in view of the quality of service required on the link.

Abstract: A method for making a micro-electronic non-volatile memory device provided with transistors having gates placed side by side, the method comprising the steps of: a) forming in a layer based on at least one first gate material lying on a support, at least one first transistor gate block and at least one sacrificial block, said first block and said sacrificial block being separated by a given space, b) forming in said given space a stack comprising at least one insulating layer and at least one second gate material, said gate material located in said space being intended to form a second gate block separated from the first block by said insulating layer, c) suppressing said sacrificial block.

Abstract: The invention relates to a packet forwarding method in a cooperative network implementing a source terminal, a destination terminal, and at least one relay terminal. In case of a packet decoding error in a node of the network, this method, depending on the outage state of a direct or relayed channel between two nodes of the network, enables a determination of the node(s) having to perform retransmission of the packet and if applicable, the transmission resource(s) to be used.

Abstract: The invention relates to a decoding method for non-binary codes, in particular non-binary LDPC codes, amenable to representation by a bipartite graph representing N variables and M constraints. The invention also relate to a transmission method for transmitting non-binary codes, in particular non-binary LDPC codes, and to a reception to receive the same. The invention can be applied in particular to an IR-HARQ or a cooperative network using a non-binary code, in particular a non-binary LDPC code.

Abstract: A method for evaluating the electric performances of an FDSOI transistor, including the steps of: measuring the capacitance and/or the conductance of the FDSOI transistor, by applying a rear voltage VBG>0 or VBG<0 on the substrate of the transistor, depending on a front voltage VFG applied on the gate of the transistor, calculating the theoretical values of the capacitance and/or the conductance of a transistor modeled by an electric circuit equivalent to the FDSOI transistor, for different selected theoretical values of defect densities Dit1, Dit2 at the dielectric-semiconductor interfaces of the modeled transistor, determining the real values of Dit1, Dit2 at the corresponding interfaces of the FDSOI transistor by a comparison between the measured values of the capacitance and/or the conductance of the FDSOI transistor and the calculated theoretical values of the capacitance and/or the conductance of the modeled transistor.
