Pour la nouvelle contemporaine, les espaces intermédiaires sont des lieux de prédilection, provoquant une tension entre le départ et l'arrivée, entre le familier et l'étranger. Le thème « Jardin » de ce numéro actualise cette situation que préconise la prose narrative brève. Qu'il soit chaos ou désordre, fleuri ou jauni, concret ou symbolique, le jardin est ici l'espace multiple de toutes les projections où germinent les désirs, les émotions et les métaphores. Il représente l'entrée dans un paradis redécouvert ou la sortie dans un enfer et prépare ainsi une chute positive ou négative. Mais, au final, dans ce numéro à l'odeur de rose et de lavande, les douze nouvelliers sont tous jardiniers. Avec les contributions de Hugues Corriveau, Jean-Simon Desrochers, Fannie Langlois et Audrée Wilhelmy, entre autres.
Le conte...
« Un outil d'éducation des plus féconds et des plus riches... »
« Les parfums... si variés, subtils, suaves, ténus ou envoûtants, fascinants, porteurs de pouvoirs, invisibles comme des êtres de mystère...
Ne pouvait-on, me disais-je, les présenter aux enfants autrement qu'à travers le savoir-faire et la technologie de l'homme ? »
Simone Righetti

Model Predictive Control Understand the practical side of controlling industrial processes Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a method for controlling a process according to given parameters, derived in many cases from empirical models. It has been widely applied in industrial units to increase revenue and promoting sustainability. Systematic overviews of this subject, however, are rare, and few draw on direct experience in industrial settings. Assuming basic knowledge of the relevant mathematical and algebraic modeling techniques, the book's title combines foundational theories of MPC with a thorough sense of its practical applications in an industrial context. The result is a presentation uniquely suited to rapid incorporation in an industrial workplace. Model Predictive Control readers will also find: Two-part organization to balance theory and applications Selection of topics directly driven by industrial demand An author with decades of experience in both teaching and industrial practice This book is ideal for industrial control engineers and researchers looking to understand MPC technology, as well as advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying predictive control and related subjects.
