Marie Farge

Marie Farge est Directrice de Recherche au CNRS et travaille à l'Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris. Elle est docteur en physique et en mathématiques, membre du Conseil de l'Académie d'Europe (Academia Europaea), 'fellow' de l'American Physical Society et du Wissenschaftskolleg de Berlin. Sa spécialité est la turbulence, la simulation numérique et la théorie des ondelettes. En 2011 elle a rédigé l'avis du Comité d'Ethique du CNRS sur les relations entre les chercheurs et les maisons d'édition. En 2012 elle a participé à la rédaction de la déclaration 'The Cost of Knowledge' dénonçant la possession et le contrôle des publications scientifiques par quelques ‘publishers’ dominants à l’échelle mondiale et appelant à boycotter le principal d’entre eux, Elsevier. Ce mouvement, suivi par près de 15 000 chercheurs dans le monde, a permis l'abandon du 'Research Works Act', projet de loi américain déposé en 2011 sous l'emprise du ‘lobbying’ d’Elsevier, qui voulait ainsi interdire aux agences publiques fédérales que les articles présentant les résultats scientifiques qu’elles avaient financés soient accessibles à tous (‘Open Access’). Cependant l’oligopole actuel exercé par quelques ‘publishers’ impose aujourd’hui aux chercheurs et aux institutions finançant la recherche le modèle ‘Gold Open Access’, où les chercheurs doivent payer pour publier leurs résultats et où les ‘publishers’ sont propriétaires des journeaux scientifiques. Il est urgent que les chercheurs proposent d’autres modèles de publication, où ils continueraient à assurer gratuitement l’évaluation des articles (‘peer-reviewing’) mais où les ‘publishers’ n’auraient plus la propriété intellectuelle, ni des journeaux, ni des articles, et seraient mis en concurrence pour offrir les meilleurs services possibles à la communauté scientifique.

Jean Paul Smets

Diplômé de l'Ecole Normale Supérieure,Corps des Mines

Après avoir été chargé de mission dans le domaine des technologies de l'information en Lorraine, il a rédigé pour le Corps des Mines un rapport concernant la stimulation de la concurrence et l'innovation dans la société de l'information et les dangers des brevets logiciels.

Il a choisi en 2001 de créer Nexedi société dédiée éditrice de logiciels libres. Nexedi a lancé l'Open Brick, premier serveur libre de la taille d'un roman, utilisé dès 2003 pour créer des réseaux Citoyens Wifi.

Nexedi a ensuite développé ERP5, le premier ERP/CRM libre innovant basé sur une approche NoSQL, sur la programmation parallèle et sur un modèle à 5 concepts élémentaires qui permet ainsi avec 10 tables de faire ce que les autres ERP font avec 10,000. ERP5 est aujourd'hui enseigné dans de nombreuses universités dont Paris Dauphine. Il est utilisé au sein de multinationales dont EADS et Abertis, ainsi que pour la gestion d'une banque centrale.

Dès les premières offres commerciales de Cloud computing Nexedi a poussé des offres de Cloud Libre, dont TioLive, une version en mode Cloud de ERP5 à laquelle sont inscrites 10,000 PME. A tout instant l'entreprise peut ainsi récupérer ses données, qui ne sont pas mêlées à celles des autres clients, et les exploiter sur ses propres serveurs.
