The following presentation is a part of the level 4 module -- Digital Logic and Signal Principles. This resources is a part of the 2009/2010 Engineering (foundation degree, BEng and HN) courses from University of Wales Newport (course codes H101, H691, H620, HH37 and 001H). This resource is a part of the core modules for the full time 1st year undergraduate programme.
The BEng & Foundation Degrees and HNC/D in Engineering are designed to meet the needs of employers by placing the emphasis on the theoretical, practical and vocational aspects of engineering within the workplace and beyond. Engineering is becoming more high profile, and therefore more in demand as a skill set, in today’s high-tech world. This course has been designed to provide you with knowledge, skills and practical experience encountered in everyday engineering environments.

Digital computers represent data by means of an easily identified symbol called a digit. The data may
contain digits, alphabets or special character, which are converted to bits, understandable by the computer.
In Digital Computer, data and instructions are stored in computer memory using binary code (or
machine code) represented by Binary digIT’s 1 and 0 called BIT’s.
The number system uses well-defined symbols called digits.
Number systems are classified into two types:
o Non-positional number system
o Positional number system
Conversion binary to decimal, Decimal to binary , octal to binary, hexadecimal to binary, binary to hex , decimal to hex ................ All conversion .
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Slack (or Teams) Automation for Bonterra Impact Management (fka Social Soluti...Jeffrey Haguewood
Sidekick Solutions uses Bonterra Impact Management (fka Social Solutions Apricot) and automation solutions to integrate data for business workflows.
We believe integration and automation are essential to user experience and the promise of efficient work through technology. Automation is the critical ingredient to realizing that full vision. We develop integration products and services for Bonterra Case Management software to support the deployment of automations for a variety of use cases.
This video focuses on the notifications, alerts, and approval requests using Slack for Bonterra Impact Management. The solutions covered in this webinar can also be deployed for Microsoft Teams.
Interested in deploying notification automations for Bonterra Impact Management? Contact us at sales@sidekicksolutionsllc.com to discuss next steps.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Binary sheet in detail with visuals to understand binary conversions.
1. L.P. I can write numbers in binary.
We can split the number 327 into 3 hundreds + 2 tens + 7 units.
There are ten units in a ten, ten tens in a hundred, ten hundreds in a thousand and so on: each digit in the number is
worth ten times more or ten times less than the digits on each side - so in the number 1,111 the four digits are the same,
but they represent one thousand (ten hundreds), one hundred (ten tens), one ten (ten units) and one unit (ten tenths).
This is called base ten. We use this for normal numbers because we have ten fingers and thumbs so ten is a useful
number for counting.
Computers don’t have fingers and they don’t have thumbs.
They don’t use base ten. Instead they use base two.
This means each digit in a number is either twice or half the value of the digits next to it. Instead of thousands,
hundreds, tens and units, a computer has eights, fours, twos and units.
In base ten, we use ten different digits: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9. In base two, the computer only needs two different
digits: 0 & 1.
The number 1111 in base two is the number 15 in base ten. Can you see why?
1. Can you work out what these numbers in base two would be in normal base ten?
Eights

2. a. 1010
b. 11
c. 1000
d. 1110
2. Can you work out what these numbers in base ten would be in base two?
a. 6
b. 13
c. 2
3. Remember that in base two, each digit is worth twice the digit to the right. Can you work out what 100000 is in
normal base ten?
4. We can write words in binary too. In base ten, a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, d = 4, e = 5, f = 6, g = 7, h = 8, i = 9, j = 10, k =
11, l = 12, m = 13, n = 14, o = 15, p = 16, q = 17, r = 18, s = 19, t = 20, u = 21, v = 22, w = 23, x = 24, y = 25, z =
26. 14 in base ten is 1110 in base two. This means we can write 1110 instead of the letter n (n=14). Can you
work out whose name this is in base two?
00100 01111 00011 10100 01111 10010 10111 01000 01111

10111 01001 01100 01100 01100 01001 10110 00101; 00111 01001 10110 00101 01101 00101

01001 00101. 10111 01000 00001 10100 00001 01101 01001?
The answer is written below. However, it is written in hexadecimal, which is base sixteen. Base ten uses ten different
digits (including 0), base two uses two different digits (0 and 1), so base sixteen uses sixteen different digits: 0, 1, 2, 3,
4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F
The number 300 in base ten, for example, is 12C in hexadecimal, base sixteen.
Anyway, here is the answer to the riddle:
06 09 12 05
Two-hundred-and-fifty-sixes
0
Sixteens

Units
7
In hexadecimal, 17 means
23 in base ten because
there is one 16 and 7 units.
