Question5
The author attracted their audience by featuring popular artists like Lil Wayne, Keri Hilson, and Beyonce in their music magazine. They also used the colors red and black, which appeal to their target demographic. Additionally, the magazine included articles about famous artists the audience would enjoy reading about. Based on feedback, the author improved the double page spread to look more professional and eye-catching by making the front text larger. They also enhanced the layout and added another image to the double page spread to make it more appealing. Peer feedback noted that the front cover looked professional and appealing for an RnB magazine.
Final Magazine Proposal
The document describes a music magazine called "Codeine" that will target teenagers aged 11-19 and feature genres like hip-hop, rap, and R&B. It will be published monthly and include advertisements, interviews with popular artists, and information about concerts and new albums/songs. The magazine aims to appeal to its target audience by including posters and details about music-related events and releases that teenagers can experience. Potential article topics include exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes stories about the music industry. The magazine will promote the success and faith of featured musicians as examples to inspire readers. The magazine cover will use a bold design with "Codeine" in large capital letters and an image of a posed person surrounded by graphics
Characterization of facebook users
This document summarizes the key characteristics of online social network (OSN) users based on a literature review and primary data collection. It finds that OSN users can be classified into three groups: singletons who rarely participate, a giant component of highly connected and active users, and a middle region of isolated small communities. Content is generated unevenly, with 20% of users creating 80% of posts. User behavior and personality traits like extraversion are also correlated with OSN usage patterns and content sharing. The document also examines privacy issues, how user information is shared with external applications, and how Facebook's privacy policies have changed over time to allow more public access to user data.
The "Facebook likes bias". Persuasion: offline, online and on Facebook.
This document is a thesis that examines whether the number of "likes" on a Facebook page influences users. It begins with background on social networks and Facebook, describing Facebook's features and how it is used. It then discusses persuasion techniques both online and offline. It introduces the study which will manipulate the number of likes on brand pages and measure the impact on users' explicit and implicit attitudes. The methodology section describes how participants, procedure, manipulation, and dependent variables will be operationalized. The results and discussion sections are not summarized as they contain findings from the actual study. The document provides context about social networks, Facebook pages, and persuasion to set up the introduced study.

Inferring Age and Gender of Facebook Users Based on their Status Updates
The use of Social Networks Sites has grown in the last decade. People are sharing online their social interactions, expressing their likes and dislikes, etc. Among many Social Networks Sites, Facebook is the most popular one. Since active and more connected users tend to adopt a private profile, some demographic information is not available (at least in a public way). Knowing hidden demographic attributes is useful in many fields, e.g., marketing campaigns. In this study we predict age and gender attributes of Facebook users relying on their status updates only. As a baseline we replicated the predictive model based on language from the Open Vocabulary Approach that uses a set of features based on the actual communication among users.
Based on such a set of linguistic features, we also analyzed the performance of a new document representation called Second Order Representation in the domain of Facebook. Second Order Representation has been introduced in the field of the Author Profiling in the domain of microblogging and social networks. In order to investigate the effect of reducing the feature dimension, we experimented with χ 2 -test as term selection method for both the predictive model of the Open Vocabulary Approach and the predictive model of the Second Order Representation. Our results show that it is possible to infer gender with an accuracy of 0.908 combining the Open Vocabulary Approach to extract linguistic features and χ 2 -test as term selection method which reduces the time of processing and the feature dimension to only 10, 000 highly discriminative terms. On age inferring, our results (R = 0.792) show that we can beat the baseline (R = 0.791) by using only 10,000 highly discriminative terms for representing users with Bag Of Terms and using lasso regression, which is a kind of feature reduction technique to reduce the number of terms used to perform regression. Finally, Second Order Representation did not beat the base line model giving an accuracy of 0.816 in gender prediction and a square-root of the coefficient of determination of 0.782 in age prediction by using a subset of features of only 15,000 highly discriminative terms.

Ola Bini Evolving The Java Platform
This document discusses evolving the Java platform to better support dynamic languages running on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). It describes several languages like Clojure, Groovy and Scala that already run on the JVM. It then outlines features missing from the JVM that would help these languages, such as dynamic invocation, lightweight method handles, and continuations. The document proposes an experimental "DaVinci Machine" to evolve the JVM by implementing these missing features. It uses the example of Ruby implementation JRuby to show current compiler pain points that could be addressed.
Is South Africa behind the enterprise cloud curve?
The document discusses cloud computing trends and adoption. It notes that while interest in cloud computing is lagging behind global trends in South Africa, adoption is growing. Virtual servers, storage, and SaaS applications are seeing the highest growth. The financial barrier to cloud adoption varies by sector. For South Africa to catch up, hybrid cloud models and virtualization will be key, along with ensuring customer needs are met throughout the adoption cycle. Ubiquitous access to cloud computing resources could similarly unlock innovation as widespread electricity did in past decades.

Digital Literacy: It's about more than access
Digital literacy is about more than just access to technology. It involves using technology well and the ability to learn, unlearn, and relearn skills. While many have access to technology, 66 million Americans still lack basic digital literacy skills. Digital literacy encompasses skills like attention, participation, collaboration, and network smarts. It also involves the ability to read, write, and interact across different platforms and media. Questions about digital literacy include its relationship to concepts like media literacy, visual literacy, and information literacy.

Bridging the Digital Divide: It's more than teaching computer skills to seniors
This document discusses bridging the digital divide and digital literacy. It defines digital literacy and describes a digitally literate person. The document also discusses different frameworks for digital and media literacies, including Rheingold's five literacies, 21st century skills, and transliteracy. Finally, it addresses challenges around different generations and their relationship with technology.
Exploring transliteracy
This document discusses the concept of transliteracy. Transliteracy goes beyond traditional literacy skills and involves the ability to read, write and interact across different platforms and media. It originated in 2005 through the work of researchers studying how communication technologies were evolving. Transliteracy is important for libraries to focus on as it reflects the changing media landscape and involves skills like identifying the appropriate format and tools for sharing information. The document argues that transliteracy is fluid, flexible and involves communicating in any form across different contexts. Libraries need to help develop transliteracy skills through exploring, experimenting and embracing change.
The Role of the Library in a Digital World
The document discusses the role of libraries in a digital world. It notes that the digital divide still exists, with many Americans lacking broadband access. Public libraries help bridge this divide, as over 77 million Americans used a library's computers and internet in 2009. The document also discusses the concept of digital literacy and the skills needed to find, evaluate and communicate information online. It argues that libraries can help develop these 21st century skills in patrons and promote inclusion in a digital society.
Libraries Bridging the Digital Divide
The digital divide refers to the gap between those who have access to digital technologies and the internet versus those who do not. Approximately one third of Americans, or 100 million people, lack access largely due to socioeconomic factors. Libraries play a key role in bridging this divide by providing free internet access and digital literacy training to 77 million Americans annually, serving as the sole provider of these services in 64.5% of communities. Increasing access and skills is important as internet access impacts opportunities in education, employment, civic participation and more.
From Training to Learing
This presentation outlines seven tips for effective training: 1) Know the material inside and out, 2) Connect with your audience to build rapport, 3) Explain why the training is relevant, 4) Set clear expectations for the training session, 5) Admit when you don't know an answer but will find out, 6) Listen to your audience's questions and needs, 7) Reward participation to encourage engagement. The presentation is brought to you by the number 7 and invites any questions from the audience.

Libraries in a Transliterate, Technology Fluent World
The document discusses the concept of transliteracy and its importance in libraries. It provides definitions of transliteracy as the ability to read, write and interact across different platforms and media. It also discusses how libraries need to help patrons become literate in understanding visual images and distinguishing facts from propaganda. The document advocates that libraries should experiment with new technologies and commit to helping patrons become transliterate in order to remain relevant in today's digital world.
Libraries and Transliteracy: An Introduction for Medical Librarians
Transliteracy is the ability to read, write and interact across different platforms, tools and media. It involves learning, unlearning and relearning as new technologies emerge. As the world becomes more networked and mobile, libraries must help patrons access and transition information in different formats. Transliteracy is becoming increasingly important as it helps unify access to information.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt. Vor allem wollen Sie sicherlich Ihr Budget einhalten und Kosten sparen, wo immer möglich. Das verstehen wir und wir möchten Ihnen dabei helfen!
Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren.
