Requirements engineering and user needs analysis
This chapter aims to provide guiding concepts to understand Requirements Engineering and User Needs Analysis, including methodological insights regarding the process and the object of study: focusing on different kinds of needs, including motivational needs, stimulating innovation, and anticipating future needs at the individual and societal levels. This chapter builds on several previous publications by […]

From social manufacturing and entrepreneurship to social open innovation: Exploring the role of fabrication laboratories
The research aims to shed light on the role of open innovation in addressing social and economic challenges. It focuses on 3D-based fabrication laboratories (fablabs) and attempts to identify the mechanisms through which the latter facilitates the diffusion and promotion of (open) innovations. The findings reveal how fablabs and additive manufacturing (AM) enable the scaling […]

Meeting the challenges of effective readiness for change in a global context
The aim of this paper is to address the potential impact of perceptions on individual readiness for change. Based on a quantitative survey of 310 executives from Anglo Saxon countries, North and Latin Europe, Arabian countries, and Far East Asian countries, identified via multi stage sampling, we compare the impact of employees’ cultural factors (cultural […]

Fondements théoriques de l’effet Proteus : comment les avatars influencent le comportement des utilisateurs
L’effet Proteus est un phénomène, décrit pour la première fois en 2007, qui illustre la façon dont l’incarnation d’avatars en réalité virtuelle peut moduler l’attitude et le comportement de son utilisateur. Malgré les nombreuses démonstrations de l’effet dans la littérature, attestant de sa validité, notre compréhension des mécanismes cognitifs à l’origine du phénomène reste insuffisante. […]

Characterizing the Culture of Teal Organizations
Teal organizations arose around the world in the last decades and were recently described as potentially announcing a new stage of evolution for human organizations. They are characterized by three defining features: Self-management, Wholeness, and Evolutionary purpose. As the emergence of such organizations echoes other signs of change in the workplace and in society, we […]

The impact of avatar embodiment in the context of virtual training environments
For the past few decades, protocols using immersive virtual reality to study human behavior have become increasingly more common. Indeed, the technology offers many new advantages that traditional experimental setups lacked (e.g., ecological validity). However, beyond its use as an experimental tool, experiments using VR have revealed new phenomena caused by the use of these […]

FVLLMONTI: The 3D Neural Network Compute Cube (N2C 2 ) Concept for Efficient Transformer Architectures Towards Speech-to-Speech Translation
This multi-partner-project contribution introduces the midway results of the Horizon 2020 FVLLMONTI project. In this project we develop a new and ultra-efficient class of ANN accelerators, the neural network compute cube (N 2C2), which is specifically designed to execute complex machine learning tasks in a 3D technology, in order to provide the high computing power […]

Introducing the 3MT_French dataset to investigate the timing of public speaking judgements
In most public speaking datasets, judgements are given after watching the entire performance, or on thin slices randomly selected from the presentations, without focusing on the temporal location of these slices. This does not allow to investigate how people’s judgements develop over time during presentations. This contrasts with primacy and recency theories, which suggest that […]

What are the drivers of competence management?
Globalization and technological transformations emphasize the need for developing new skills and acting at the peak of one’s capacities. Competence is defined as the combination of external and individual resources to fulfill one’s job demands and contribute to the organization’s purpose. It corresponds to feeling effective and efficient in one’s actions. As such, competence is […]
