Cette plate-forme va s’appuyer sur les deux salles expérimentales existantes en Bretagne (l’une à Rennes, hébergée par l’Université de Rennes 1, l’autre à Brest, hébergée par l’ENST Bretagne).

Le projet consiste à assurer la mise en couplage de ces deux salles (sur le plan technique), à proposer un programme d’expériences visant à étudier les comportements et usages individuels et collectifs dans un environnement réseau de type Internet et à développer des outils et méthodologies permettant de traiter les données recueillies lors de ces expériences.

The emergence of a large number of initiatives related to e-healthcare has marked the last years, especially with the implementation of specialized information networks (cancer, diabetes, cardiology, ...) or multidisciplinary information networks. However the real way these networks work and their socioeconomic repercussions (on the quality of life and the wellbeing of the patient in particular) have not been the subject of systematic analysises yet.

This project therefore aims to put forward a group of indicators and methods to assess the use of health informatics (statistical, sociological and economical assessments), and this, based on a particular study of the shared medical file. This will eventually lead to recommendations improving the comfort of the patients, to a better sharing of the information and of the knowledge among the healthcare professionnals and to the reduction of the costs of these networks.

Based on a bi-disciplinary approach (sociology and law), the project aims at studying the uses of mobile phone in a professional context (among the executives) and in a familial context (relations between the generations) in order to determine how the new dialectic of autonomy and control is linked up and to identify the juridical evolutions required.

Fondé sur une approche bi-disciplinaire (sociologie et droit), le projet vise à étudier les usages dans le contexte professionnel (chez les cadres) et familial (relations entre les générations) afin de déterminer comment s’articule la nouvelle dialectique de l’autonomie et du contrôle et d’identifier les évolutions juridiques nécessaires.

We propose to analyze the impact of the ICT in management and information’s usage in the relations between the sea and the ground. In the marine fisheries sector, the transmission of information takes a particular dimension, because it reduces the uncertainty and therefore modifies the relations among the actors of the highly competing and competitive fishing industry.

Nous proposons d’analyser l’impact des TIC dans la gestion et l’usage des informations dans les relations mer/terre.

Dans le secteur de la pêche maritime, la transmission de l’information prend une dimension particulière, car elle réduit l’incertitude et modifie, par conséquent, les relations entre les acteurs d’une filière économique fortement concurrentielle et compétitive.

This study deals with the public service information offer in Brittany using electronic media.

This particular piece of information had several characteristics:

– it is not necessarily due to an investigative process about what could be hidden (unlike the conception inspired by the usefulness of the “fourth estate” in democracy);

– it is not produced only by professional journalists;

– the main organised forces in the society are not only the people addressed but also the sources and the mediators (implying a circular and not linear scheme);

– it coexists and adds further to the other kind of information;

► it can be conveyed by non-market media, especially the free ones; it is on any support, but mainly under electronic forms and the media.

This information is increasingly offered by the public authorities and in particular by city councils.
