Sommario/riassunto |
|
The advances in microsystems offer new opportunities and capabilities to develop systems for biomedical applications, such as diagnostics and therapy. There is a need for a comprehensive treatment of microsystems and in particular for an understanding of performance limits associated with the shrinking scale of microsystems. The new edition of Microsystems for Bioelectronics addresses those needs and represents a major revision, expansion and advancement of the previous edition. This book considers physical principles and trends in extremely scaled autonomous microsystems such as integrated |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
La mondialisation de l'économie, d'une part, les limites d'une planification urbaine procédant principalement par normes et réglementations, d'autre part, ont conduit les villes méditerranéennes à imiter les grandes métropoles mondiales en se tournant vers une programmation plus stratégique et plus flexible de leur développement et de leur aménagement. En Méditerranée comme ailleurs, prendre place dans la compétition internationale et attirer des flux croissants d'investissements internationalement mobiles devient un enjeu décisif qui conditionne fortement l'adoption d'un "projet urbain", caractérisé le plus souvent par de grandes opérations d'urbanisme à caractère emblématique. Cet ouvrage, faisant suite au colloque du Groupe de Recherches sur les Espaces et les Réseaux du Bassin Méditerranéen (GRERBAM) organisé à Barcelone en mai 2000 avec la collaboration de l'Institut Catala de la Mediterrania, s'interroge sur les conditions de mise en oeuvre du projet urbain dans le contexte spécifique des villes méditerranéennes. Soumises souvent à deux menaces, tantôt alternatives, tantôt complémentaires, de marginalisation périphérique et de métropolisation mal-maîtrisée, comment les villes méditerranéennes peuvent-elles penser leur projet urbain ?

atouts cherchent-elles à valoriser au travers de leurs plans stratégiques de développement pour se positionner sur le marché mondialisé des territoires ? Quelles sont les implications sociales, culturelles, urbanistiques de ces projets ? Telles sont quelques-unes des questions principales qui traversent les différents chapitres rédigés par des spécialistes des espaces méditerranéens, croisant leurs approches interdisciplinaires en partant d'exemples observés sur l'ensemble du pourtour méditerranéen. |
