Guest Lecture on Music Entrepreneurship by Nate MaingardNathan Maingard
The document discusses how Nate Maingard, a South African folk musician, builds his tribe and fan base. It outlines a process of wooing potential fans by sharing free content, then meeting and exchanging value through merchandise, shows, and crowdfunding. The goal is to commit fans long-term by offering ongoing rewards through a Patreon patronage platform, allowing fans to support the artist in exchange for unique experiences.
This document summarizes IBM's business analytics and big data strategy and capabilities. It discusses how analytics are important for businesses to gain insights and competitive advantages. It outlines IBM's investments in analytics through acquisitions, expertise, technology, and partners. It describes IBM Smarter Analytics as an approach to turn information into insights and outcomes. Key capabilities discussed include business intelligence, predictive analytics, and big data platforms and solutions.
This document discusses challenges and solutions related to deep water drilling. It describes different types of rigs used for deep water drilling at various water depths. Key challenges discussed include gas hydrates, reactive formations, low fracture gradients, large mud volumes, low flow line temperatures, and high rig costs. Solutions provided relate to additive selection, temperature and pressure management, casing design, logistics planning, and optimization to reduce costs and time.

R is located at 77°N, 110°W as it lies on the same parallel of latitude as P and Q, with PR forming the diameter.
The shortest distance between P and R, measured along the earth's surface, is 1560 nautical miles.
The shortest distance between P and Q, measured along the parallel of latitude, is 674.85 nautical miles.
Given that an aeroplane flew from Q to the South Pole at an average speed of 600 knots, the time of flight from Q to the South Pole is calculated to be 16 hours and 42 minutes.
This document discusses fuzzy queries in relational database management systems (RDBMS). It introduces fuzzy RDBMS (FRDBMS), which allows imprecise queries using fuzzy logic and natural language. Fuzzy queries are more expressive than traditional SQL queries as they can represent human language and return graded results. The document presents an example student database and compares a traditional SQL query to a fuzzy query. It shows that fuzzy queries using membership functions can return student records and their degree of membership to linguistic terms like "poor performer", providing a more flexible way to query databases.
Mbusi Ray Sibanda is seeking a position that allows him to focus fully on his duties and continue learning new skills. He has experience in baking, food preparation, operating machines, domestic work, security guarding, and working as a waiter and cook's assistant. His education includes ordinary level certificates in English and Ndebele as well as a certificate in customer care. He provides references from previous employers in Zimbabwe and his current lodge in South Africa.
This document describes the design and implementation of a voice activated, programmable, multipurpose robot. The robot uses a microcontroller and various integrated circuits to enable voice control and wireless control via dual-tone multi-frequency signaling. The document provides details on the circuit design and components, software design in C and Assembly languages, and concludes the robot demonstrates satisfactory performance for applications such as guiding visitors or patients.
This document discusses security challenges in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and reviews several secure routing protocols proposed to address these challenges. It begins by introducing MANETs and explaining that routing in MANETs is difficult due to the dynamic topology. It then discusses common security goals for routing protocols like confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Several attacks on MANET routing protocols are described, including passive attacks like eavesdropping and active attacks like wormhole and blackhole attacks. The document proceeds to review six secure routing protocols for MANETs - DSDV, SAR, SAODV, SRP, Secure AODV using RSA signatures, and TORA - and describes their approaches to providing routing security. It concludes

This document presents a human identification system using gait biometrics. The system first detects moving subjects in video sequences and extracts silhouettes using background subtraction. It then uses Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF) to detect keypoints and extract descriptors, which are used to calculate gait features like joint angles and velocities. These gait features are classified using Meta-sample based Sparse Representation Classification (MSRC) which achieves an overall classification rate of 94.6782% on a self-collected dataset.
This document compares three techniques for detecting concurrency faults in software: random search, hill climbing, and genetic algorithms.
Random search performs poorly at detecting deadlocks and data races but can detect starvation in any search space. Hill climbing has low detection rates for deadlocks and data races. Genetic algorithms have the highest detection rates across all fault types, including deadlocks, starvation, and data races, but also have the highest computational cost.
The document also discusses two UML profiles for modeling real-time systems - UML/SPT and MARTE - and how they can help detect concurrency issues during early design phases.
This document discusses requirement metrics that can be used to measure and improve software quality during the requirements engineering phase of the software development lifecycle. It describes several types of requirement metrics, including size metrics, traceability metrics, completeness metrics, and volatility metrics. These metrics provide insight into factors like the scope and complexity of requirements, consistency between requirement levels, requirements changes over time, and gaps or issues in requirements documentation. Tracking and analyzing these metrics during requirements can help software developers and analysts enhance software quality from the early stages of development.
This document discusses image registration using mutual information. It describes mutual information as a similarity measure that is robust to illumination changes, modality differences, and occlusions. It can accurately register both monomodal and multimodal images in real-time. The document evaluates three optimization techniques for mutual information-based registration - gradient descent, conjugate gradient, and random search. Gradient descent produced the most accurate registrations with the lowest error values. Entropy, mutual information, and error values are calculated and reported to evaluate the registration results for both mono and multimodal images. Gradient descent optimization achieved the best alignment between images as indicated by the increased mutual information and decreased error values after registration.
This document describes using simulated annealing to tune the parameters of a PID controller (Kp, Ki, Kd) for a stable linear time-invariant system. It evaluates the PID controller performance using four error criteria: ISE, IAE, ITAE, and MSE. The simulated annealing algorithm iteratively adjusts the PID parameters to minimize an objective function based on the selected error criteria. It finds that ITAE criteria results in the minimum objective function value with no overshoot or undershoot and a settling time of 2.2641e-005 seconds.
The document discusses educational data mining and a proposed Student-Staff-Tutor (SSTT) framework. It summarizes the following:
1) Educational data mining uses techniques like machine learning, statistics and data mining to analyze educational data to better understand the learning process and student performance.
2) The SSTT framework models relationships between students, staff, and tutors and how these interactions impact student learning and outcomes.
3) An experiment applies clustering and social network analysis to educational data to analyze student knowledge distribution and interactions under the SSTT framework. The results found tutors play an important role in strengthening student-staff relationships and improving student performance.
