So here are some comments (mostly absolutely minor typos, and I apologise in advance for the lack of diacritical marks). By the way, it feels wrong to comment in English on a French text, but anyway: p4: "comportement" should be "comportements" p6: "developpement specifiques" should be both plural or both singular p7: "modele economiques" should be both plural or both singular p12, last line: somehow "outils de developpement cooperatif" sounds better to me than "outils de developpements cooperatifs" p19: I'm really not sure of this, but if one writes "boggue" then one should write "deboggueur" instead of "debogueur" -- this assumes a certain internal consistency and logic I always felt the French language had and the English language lacked, so I could be off-base p24: "systemes [...] de plus en plus cher*s*" I really like page 26 :). One last remark: on page 16, you list Macaulay for commutative algebra/algebraic geometry. I would write Macaulay2 instead. If you're not convinced, the following excerpt comes directly from the Macaulay web page: "Wait! It's 2003. That 70's haircut really has to go. While you're at it, are you sure you want this program? It warms our hearts every time we hear of a diehard Macaulay enthusiast, but even Dave has switched to Macaulay 2."
