The document announces an upcoming regional technical communication conference organized by STC Mid-Atlantic with keynote speaker Don Moyer and sessions led by industry leaders. It also advertises a workshop by Don Moyer on building better visual explanations. The conference aims to serve members' needs and raise funds for scholarships. It encourages renewing STC membership to get discounts on registration.
This document discusses best practices for developing hybrid mobile apps across platforms. It emphasizes using density independent pixels (DP) to support varying screen densities, providing splash screens and navigation optimized for each platform. While tools like Intel's App Framework aim to build truly cross-platform apps, the document argues that building native versions for each platform is ultimately easier since it avoids challenges of differing interaction patterns and screen usages across Android and iOS. Examples of successfully cross-platform apps are provided.
The document discusses portfolio management (MoPTM), which is a coordinated collection of strategic processes and decisions that enable an effective balance of organizational change and business as usual. MoPTM helps organizations prioritize investments based on their contribution to strategic objectives and risk level. It offers principles and processes for managing projects, programs and initiatives as a coordinated portfolio. Using MoPTM can increase strategic alignment, benefit realization, and resource efficiency while reducing costs and duplication across an organization's change activities.
This document discusses various natural disasters including avalanches, floods, earthquakes, tornados, volcanoes, hurricanes, wildfires, tsunamis. It provides brief definitions and descriptions of each type of natural disaster, noting that they can cause significant damage but are natural occurrences beyond full human control. Natural disasters discussed include landslides, storms, seismic events, and fires.
This document provides guidance on establishing a portfolio to manage projects and programs across an organization. It discusses defining the purpose and scope of portfolio management, identifying existing initiatives, categorizing them, and prioritizing initiatives based on their contribution to strategic objectives. The benefits of portfolio management include greater focus on strategic goals, more efficient use of resources, and reduced disruption from changes. Challenges include resistance from those running projects and the need to gather comprehensive information.

CA Technologies provides IT management solutions to help customers manage complex IT environments. However, customer research found that CA's technical documentation provided too much information, was hard to find what was needed, and lacked easily consumable help for day-to-day tasks. In response, CA developed the Xinfo methodology, which includes new technical information roles, a scenario-based content approach, a focus on "just enough" documentation, and an end-to-end view of product information. The goal of Xinfo is to provide customers the content they need, when they need it, through modern deliverables.
This document introduces the topic of geometry and polygons. It asks the reader what they know about geometry and polygons. It then prompts the reader to look at several images on Flickr and identify the different shapes they see, classifying them as polygons or non-polygons. Finally, it asks the reader to create their own presentation identifying polygons they find in the real world.
This document provides an overview of change management, including:
- Change management involves communication, influencing, and planning skills to move an organization from its current state to a new state. It differs from project management by focusing on adoption rather than delivery.
- Change management is important because change is constant and affects individuals, teams, and the entire organization. It requires planning, management, and control to ensure the right changes are implemented.
- Benefits of change management include clarifying roles, reducing failed initiatives, faster implementation, and less duplicated efforts.
PRINCE2 is a standardized project management method used worldwide. It provides structure and guidelines for project management in 7 principles, 7 themes, and 7 processes. The document discusses what PRINCE2 is, its benefits such as cost reductions and transparency, and qualifications like Foundation and Practitioner. Maven Training is an accredited PRINCE2 training provider that helps students understand how to apply PRINCE2, prepares them for certification exams, and ensures trainers have project experience.
Power aware compilation is a software approach to reducing energy consumption by optimizing code during compilation. It works by [1] analyzing assembly code produced during compilation to calculate clock cycles needed for execution, [2] developing optimization models to replace instructions with equivalents needing fewer cycles, and [3] generating optimized assembly code requiring less energy to run. This technique aims to make developers aware of programs' energy efficiency and influence more energy-conscious software development.
The document provides guidance for new postgraduate students on expectations from supervisors, requirements for research proposals and thesis writing. It notes that supervisors expect students to be independent, seek advice, and meet regularly. Research proposals should include background, purpose, questions, and methodology. Requirements for a PhD thesis are an original contribution, evidence of independent work, and understanding of techniques. Thesis writing involves planning reading, research and writing, with chapters on introduction, literature review and findings. It also provides a checklist for students to plan their work and understand references.
1) The document provides tips for applicants preparing for an interview at Asasi TESL UiTM, including attire, common questions, and how to present oneself.
2) It recommends dressing formally, being well-groomed, and bringing required documents. Common interview questions relate to oneself, family, interests, and suitability as a teacher.
3) The author advises being confident, humble, and avoiding lies or insults during the interview. Practice is also recommended to feel at ease during the interview.
Here are three examples of methodologies from different disciplines:
Methodology Example #1 (Social Science):
I will conduct semi-structured interviews with 30 participants to understand their perspectives on the issue. The interviews will be recorded and transcribed. Using thematic analysis, I will code the transcripts to identify common themes. I will also analyze 10 policy documents using content analysis to see how the issue is framed by policymakers.
Methodology Example #2 (Sciences/Engineering):
An experiment will be conducted using a custom apparatus I have designed and built. It consists of a laser, mirrors, beamsplitters, lenses, detectors, and a motion stage. A laser beam will be split into two paths of varying lengths and
The document provides details of a marketing research plan created by a team for Mavrik Golf Management. It includes research methods like surveys and focus groups. It analyzes Mavrik's competition and awareness, identifies problems like lack of website accessibility, and provides recommendations such as showing player highlights on the website.

Diseño Industrial para el 2033 - IED BarcelonaIED Barcelona
El IED Barcelona, que cumple quince años en la ciudad, presentará el próximo 8 de marzo un libro, Fifteen of fifty book, en el que anticipa estos movimientos. La idea es que si la sociedad cambia, el diseño industrial le tiene que acompañar. Y para imaginarse el futuro, nada mejor que un mapa, que su director, AlessandroManetti, ha bautizado Deflexor 2033.
El manifiesto del diseño en las próximas décadas. “Se trata más bien de una brújula para orientarse en tiempos de incertidumbre”, matiza. “Vivimos en una época en que la concentración de riqueza aumenta y con ella las diferencias sociales. Y el diseño industrial no puede vivir al margen de la realidad, con lo que deberá tener un impacto social”, comenta. Demografía, tecnología y globalización macarán las pautas, agrupadas en seis tendencias de fondo, con algún ejemplo concreto de diseño que desde el IED ofrecen como propuesta de estudio. Alessandro Manetti sostiene que “el diseño no puede concebirse sólo como un mero encargo...
