The document outlines the development of a music and rhythm game for consoles. It discusses research into fun factors for such games including music, interaction and feedback. Game design goals are identified as focusing on these three areas. Challenges in tool development are mentioned. A project schedule is presented, starting with additional game prototype and research followed by pre-production, alpha and beta testing, with a focus on external testing in the beta stage. Contact details are provided for offering development help. Special thanks are given to staff at Electronic Arts.
Findings from 2008 JWJ Strategic Planning Surveyjwjnational
These are the findings from the national Jobs with Justice strategic planning process in 2008. These findings are based on a survey of the national network at that time.

Dynamic programming is used to solve optimization problems by breaking them down into subproblems. It solves each subproblem only once, storing the results in a table to lookup when the subproblem recurs. This avoids recomputing solutions and reduces computation. The key is determining the optimal substructure of problems. It involves characterizing optimal solutions recursively, computing values in a bottom-up table, and tracing back the optimal solution. An example is the 0/1 knapsack problem to maximize profit fitting items in a knapsack of limited capacity.
Keystroke level model presentation sebastian daumSebastian Daum
The document discusses using the Keystroke Level Model (KLM) to measure and compare the efficiency of user interfaces. KLM involves decomposing tasks into basic physical and mental operations measured in milliseconds to predict task completion times. It provides an example of using KLM to analyze the efficiency of a train ticket booking process on a website. By counting operators and estimating times, it determines the original design takes 27.54 seconds while an improved design takes 15.27 seconds, a 44.5% reduction. KLM allows identifying opportunities to improve efficiency early in design.
The document discusses persuasive design, which focuses on using emotional triggers to influence user behavior in a desired way. It involves understanding user emotions and acting on that information to create intriguing experiences that nudge users towards the desired outcome. The research involved is more qualitative and aims to understand what drives user actions and when users are most receptive to influence.
The document discusses ways to increase the number of reviews on the Times City review platform. It notes that currently 60% of users bounce off the homepage and the average time on site is only 2.19 minutes. The platform receives about 60 reviews per month from each city. Some options discussed to increase reviews include improving review quality by adding moderators, providing incentives for reviewers like points and recognition, launching a mobile app to reach more users, and partnering with restaurants on deals and events to motivate dining out. The goal is to generate 500-14,000 additional reviews per month through these strategies.
This document lists cities and towns in Vermont and provides an activity where one person asks another person where they live and the other responds by pointing to the city/town on the list and stating the area if applicable.
This document provides information on incorporating an offshore business entity and the benefits of doing so. It discusses the essential legal parts of a jurisdiction that governs an incorporated entity, such as registered offices, legal documents, and corporate roles. Reasons for forming a company include limited liability, asset protection, and tax benefits. Popular jurisdictions discussed include Wyoming and Delaware for LLCs and corporations respectively, as well as Belize, British Virgin Islands, Hong Kong, and Singapore for international business companies. Singapore is highlighted as having a business-friendly environment and potential for citizenship through an entrepreneur pass.
Tata Motors DVR An Analysis Abhinay Mohanabhinay_m
This document analyzes DVR (differential voting rights) shares issued by Tata Motors. It discusses that DVR shares have fewer voting rights but higher economic value than ordinary shares. Companies issue DVRs to raise funds without diluting voting control. Investors interested in DVRs prioritize economic returns over voting rights. The document also reviews historical DVR prices and holding patterns for Tata Motors, Pantaloon, and Gujrat NRE Coke. It finds DVR prices generally track but trade at a discount to ordinary shares. For Tata Motors, this discount widens when institutional holdings increase.
A mother writes a letter to her child expressing her hope that when she is old and experiencing common issues associated with aging, such as repeating herself, losing her hearing, smelling bad, or needing help with daily tasks, that her child will be patient and take care of her needs. She asks her child to listen to her stories, even if not interesting, and remember how much she cared for them as a child by chasing them and getting what they wanted through repeated requests.
Exemplary implementation of the risk information in local spatial planning ennishava
The document discusses using flood risk information in local spatial planning. It recommends identifying flood risk areas from various sources and mapping them based on probability as high, medium, or low risk zones. Development should be directed away from high risk zones according to a sequential approach. Land use types are classified based on vulnerability to flooding, and standards for acceptable land use are defined for each risk zone. The goal is to identify areas of significant flood risk where highly vulnerable land uses are located and damage would be high.
The document discusses implementing a "Driving Forces - Pressures - State - Impact - Response" model to assess flood risk in the Upper Nishava River catchment area between Bulgaria and Serbia. It analyzes the driving forces of climate and landscape that lead to flood pressures from changes in land use, soil sealing, urbanization, and transportation infrastructure development. These pressures impact the state of historical and future flooding as well as the damages, costs, and environmental consequences of floods in the region. Responses include preventative protection and mitigation measures.
