Walter Murch is one of the few film editors in American cinema to practice both image and sound editing. Because his thinking about editing sees the visual and audio continuums as overlapping, Murch's relation towards editing is interoperable. First, this article explores interoperability in the context of cinema through the Open Media Framework Interchange (OMF) file format. This innovation, conceived in the 1990s, is a technical protocol which opens communication channels between image and sound editing software. Next, this article addresses the consequences of the practical and philosophical conceptions of the OMF on everyday image and sound editing practices. It then compares these conceptions with Murch's thinking about editing. Above all, it seeks to raise the real issues around an interoperable editing practice.

Computing in every-day management of care units: the obstacle of learning From a study case conducted in a large Parisian hospital, this research seeks to thoroughly clarify crossings between the computerization process and the organization of work to stress different stages in the learning process. Offering a detailed description of the process, the analysis points out the difficulties, more often the conflicts, but also its potentialities. Beyond this report, this study aims to identify means of promoting learning process and changes regarding care units. In the end, the way they are implemented should emphasize that computer science ability to be considered as a tool for organizational changes in the hospital depends on how learning process of computerized information tools are managed.

Satellite imagery appears today in a great number of atlas and geography books. It is still widely considered as a modernist illustration, when in fact most of these images are received in digital data form, and can be put to a variety of uses when converted to thematic map according to the selected target. Students must be led to realize that the images, they are shown are not fixed once and for all, but are a partial view of reality depending on the theme to be studied and the image processing. We shall first explain the principles which have directed. The software according to the technological and educational context, then we shall comment on the importance of showing the present limits of a new technology as will as its importance for interdisciplinary syntheses.

How can the bibliographic references retrieved from data bases be analysed in order to study the characteristics of the literature of a given subject? The following research attempts to answer that question using the cognitive aspects of information science. The procedure consisted of four steps: 1) the retrieval of the data (bibliographic references found in LISA and ERIC); 2) the manipulation of this data (sorting, codification, standardisation and merging); 3) the analysis of the data in order of draw conclusions regarding the characteristics of the literature; and 4) the organisation and use of the results of the analysis. The methodology required two programmes: a word processing software (WordPerfect) and a text analysis software (SATO).

AbstractThis article shows some results of an experiment carried out on an Lsp corpus. Four texts were selected and classified from the most general to the most specialized. They were analyzed with the help of a statistical program, in view to testing the initial classification and to seeing whether significant differences exist between the texts.

AbstractComparative Study of Lexical Combinations in Two Fields of Knowledge (aeronautics and philosophy) and Discrimination Between Lexical Collocations and Conceptual Collocations — This paper deals with word combinations (also called collocations, phraseological units, cooccurrences, etc.) in two different LSPs (Language for Specific Purposes or Special languages) — aeronautics and philosophy. First, a general study of different scientists' approaches in general language and in LSP is provided. Then, the focus is on the discrimination between lexical collocations vs conceptual collocations in LSPs. Finally, an overview of the methodology we used with our master thesis (still in progress) is discussed, along with the presentation of some results.
