EndNote: Actively Collaborating to Support Researchers
The document discusses the history of EndNote training at University College Dublin (UCD) Library. It describes a 2006 pilot program that provided EndNote training to two schools. The training aimed to help users manage bibliographic references and citations. Challenges included unreliable software and limited access. Recommendations included improving support, expanding training, and collaborating with IT services to upgrade software and access. Following the pilot, the library expanded EndNote training and support and worked with IT services to improve off-campus access through new licensing and delivery methods.
Csedu2014
This document discusses the need for a new generation of learning management systems (LMS) suited for "real" online learning with little face-to-face contact. It argues that traditional LMSs designed for classroom settings are too limited, while MOOC platforms lack organizational control. The document presents OpenU as a case study, which integrates LMS functionality, personal learning environments, and social networks on a single portal platform. It describes how OpenU's next generation LMS was built by developing additional code on top of the open source Liferay portal.
Integration Of Evolving Technology
The document discusses how a school district integrates evolving technology into its curriculum to improve learning. It describes how the district uses portable conferencing equipment for virtual field trips and distance learning. Teachers have access to thousands of educational videos and online teaching resources. Students can compose writing assignments online and immediately receive assessments and remediation. Students at St. Helen Elementary benefit from skills programs that use pre- and post-tests to measure improvement. A Smartboard is used to reduce paper and engage tactile learners.

Walsh University IT Department
The document discusses Walsh University's online learning management system called ECN. ECN is built on the open-source Sakai platform and provides students and faculty with tools for online courses like syllabi, modules, tests, assignments, and discussion forums. The document evaluates ECN based on surveys of professors, students, and the IT department, finding it is generally effective but could be improved with enhanced technology and a more user-friendly interface, especially for mobile use. Areas identified for growth include the wiki system, interactive tutoring, and streamlining the grading and assignment submission processes.
E learning website
The document proposes developing an e-learning website to provide online courses in coding languages like PHP, JavaScript, Python and more. It will offer tutorials, video lectures, tests and updated content. The goals are to create an interactive platform with easy access to visual and engaging course material. Various programming languages and tools would be used to develop the browser-independent and responsive website. Security measures like login and firewall would protect the website.
eLearning Proposal from HITA
HITA is a new offshoot of a healthcare IT company that provides eLearning courses and platforms. Its eLearning platform is a comprehensive, integrated system that is accessible online from any device. It facilitates learning as well as skill development through personalized skills labs in the cloud. The platform seamlessly integrates with MOOCs and allows for cross-institutional collaboration. For institutions, working with HITA provides strategic, financial and operational benefits like reducing costs and allowing focus on education rather than infrastructure management. HITA proposes two options - developing the platform only or also creating courses for an institution.
Colorado Theia System Project
The Colorado Virtual Studio System incorporates gated and monitored access to valued tools (production and post production equipment) in the creation of original student work. In order to access production equipment, students must present written work (outlines, then treatments, then screenplays) that serve as the blueprint to the final project (completed film). The student project leader assembles a team of specialists (actors, producers and/or directors, art directors, directors of photography, production managers, lighting and sound technicians, makeup, wardrobe, and set design trainees, logistical coordinators, production assistants, camera operators, location managers, etc.) required for successful project completion. However, within this system, project completion is not the mere lensing and editing of the proposed project. It is the delivery of the project to the consumer (audience) through a variety of venues. Consequently, the gated access to desired resources is contingent on market focus, just as it is in the real world.
Online education in india
Online education is gaining momentum in India with more students and working professionals enrolling in online certificate and degree programs. The government is promoting online education to provide more educational opportunities for those in remote areas or with limited access. As internet access expands across India, more universities are offering online courses using advanced interactive technologies that blend online and classroom learning. Some major Indian institutions offering online programs include IGNOU, Sikkim Manipal University, and Amity University. International MOOCs like edX and Coursera also provide online access to top global universities.
What is the virtual learning environment
A virtual learning environment (VLE) is a system designed to support teaching and learning through computers and the internet. It allows teachers to present course materials, track student performance, and facilitate communication through tools like email and discussions. A VLE typically includes features like course syllabi, materials, assessments, and different access for teachers and students. It aims to provide a consistent interface for all course components and resources through linking capabilities. VLEs are increasingly popular in education as they can save instructor time, provide students with internet-based resources, and integrate distance and campus-based learning.
Web20concerns2
The document outlines several areas of caution for implementing Web 2.0 and online education technologies. It warns that giving instructors technology tools does not automatically make them better leaders and that both students and instructors need reliable access to equipment and bandwidth. It also notes challenges such as recreating face-to-face courses online, managing additional student work, supporting both online and in-person programs, and ensuring technologies do not become obsolete too quickly.
Learning management system
This document discusses learning management systems (LMS), content management systems (CMS), and learning content management systems (LCMS). It defines each term and outlines their key differences. An LMS is focused on managing how individuals participate in e-learning programs, tracking learner data. A CMS is concerned with how content for e-learning is created, published, and tracked. An LCMS is an integrated solution that provides a multi-user environment for developing, storing, reusing, delivering, and managing digital learning content from a central repository.

UCL and iTunes U 2010
Jeremy Speller discusses UCL's experience with providing lecture content on iTunes U. UCL launched on iTunes U in 2008 after being approached by Apple. They initially captured 150 events totaling 200 hours of content. Usage has grown significantly, with over 1,500 items and 300,000 downloads to date. UCL also provides private streaming of this content integrated into their learning management system to benefit students. Future plans include further developing the private site and an online media application to streamline the ingest and distribution of content.
Taskforce initial presentation 4 24-14
This document provides an overview and status update of Tri-C's Learning Management System (LMS) review project from May 2014. It outlines the project plan, assumptions, timeline, roles and responsibilities, communication efforts, and next steps. The key goals are to analyze if their current LMS (Blackboard) still fits the institution's needs and to potentially select and implement a new LMS if warranted. The project utilizes work groups, biweekly meetings, and "sprints" to gather input and make progress towards completing a needs analysis and selecting a new system by December 2014 if needed.
Open Education. A Modern Approach to Teaching and Learning
Richard Baraniuk discusses the benefits of open education, which creates an interactive community for sharing educational content freely and openly. He outlines two key enablers of open education: modern technology allows for free distribution and storage of content, and new intellectual property frameworks allow content to be safely shared with common legal terms like open-source software. Examples of open education platforms are provided, such as Connexions which provides open textbooks and courses to over 1 million unique users per month from around the world. Open education offers opportunities for high-quality, continuously updated, and translated educational resources that are never out of date and available for free online or at low cost in print.
MOOC briefing for Faculty of Medicine
This document discusses Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). It notes that MOOCs can have massive enrollments, like a Stanford class with 160,000 students. MOOCs are open for anyone to register for free and leave at any time without penalty. Content is delivered online, and courses can be time-based or self-paced. The largest MOOC platforms are Coursera, edX, and Udacity, which partner with top universities to offer hundreds of courses in diverse subjects. The document then discusses how MOOCs relate to the UKM university in Malaysia, noting goals to have faculty create multiple MOOC courses and plans to launch them on the openlearning.com platform
Elgg at the University of Brighton -- Stanier
Elgg was implemented at the University of Brighton to provide students with blogging capabilities and more opportunities for community engagement that integrated with their existing Blackboard system. It allows for single sign-on with Blackboard and automatically creates module-specific private communities within Elgg from Blackboard course data. Elgg has seen good usage from both social and academic perspectives, including course discussions, student support communities, and ePortfolios, though increasing academic understanding of its capabilities and external visibility remain issues.

香港六合彩
范大妈是干什么的：哼，香港六合彩掐着表来着，好几个钟头，再壮的小伙子也架不住！
其实，那好几个钟头，是两个年轻人在房间里，正想方设法藏到别人决找不到的地方。
范大妈已经到另外一个世界里去了，按西方习惯，对死人应该宽容，这位与危楼几乎同时终
结生命的人，心底里良善的本质，还是时而流露的，能让人见到一个真的范大妈。记得香港六合彩缠
绵病榻数月，知道自己快不行了，不也让毛毛去把往昔决不让进门的敲窗人请来，等那位头
发斑白的钟表修理匠，坐到香港六合彩的床边，香港六合彩已经说不出话，只是把手让香港六合彩握着，然后，慢慢地
闭上了眼，离开了人世。这是后话。
就在那次争吵以后，香港六合彩改变了政策，从反对阿芳结婚，到支持香港六合彩早早办事，一来茶汤
生意，阿芳早不帮忙了，二来香港六合彩也觉得应该理解年轻人，甚至坦率地说：乔老爷说得好，
谁年轻时不曾饿狼来过？
其实乔老爷并未讲过饿狼，是香港六合彩发展了的。有人说阿宝送香港六合彩一条过滤嘴烟，才准许不够
年龄的阿芳办结婚登记。恐怕未必这样。香港六合彩就记得有一回，范大妈把香港六合彩养的两只刚打鸣的小
公鸡宰了，浓浓地炖了一砂锅，端到三楼阿宝屋里。
吃吧，阿宝，连汤带肉全吃下去！然后，坐在对面瞅着香港六合彩吃。孩子，你可要爱惜
你的身子！
香港六合彩敢发誓，香港六合彩那温柔慈祥的样子，把香港六合彩这个旁观者都打动了。
孩子，那种事情怎么能过分呢？看你，才几天，两眼都眍洼下去啦！香港六合彩见香港六合彩迟迟疑
疑，不敢举筷的模样，便说：公鸡是补阳的，吃吧，这些日子你光吃西红柿，荤腥都不
沾。
阿宝刚刚在烤鸭店，和阿芳吃完归来，已经是七荤八素，顺脖子流油的小伙子，不得不
打点起精神对付这两只笋鸡。藏金案事犯以后，阿宝向香港六合彩承认：当时，香港六合彩真害怕已经再装
不进东西的胃，一下子全吐出来。大妈那眼睛多尖，香港六合彩准会纳闷，公鸡到肚里一转，怎么会
变成鸭子了？

六合采·六和彩画
六合采·六和彩画对雨馨笑了笑，要六合采·六和彩画放心，然后举起同学早已帮六合采·六和彩画倒好的啤酒，一饮而尽，连尽三杯，大家都鼓掌叫好。在六合采·六和彩画们班上喝酒,六合采·六和彩画从来就没怕过谁，因为六合采·六和彩画们班就那么5个男生，谁还不知道谁的酒量，女孩子就更不用说了，但是今晚好象六合采·六和彩画失策了。
“千古情仇酒一壶”这句诗实在写的好，似乎今晚人们都将此时的离愁别绪都容入了酒里，连平常关系不怎么好的女生都坐到了一起干杯.“干杯”似乎也只有这个词可以表达六合采·六和彩画们此时所有的情感。
几杯酒过后,大家都已经醉了,当然也包括六合采·六和彩画.
怎么回到寝室的六合采·六和彩画不知道，六合采·六和彩画只记得首先是六合采·六和彩画们学生敬老师敬系领导.然后是寝室的几个男同胞互相敬酒，几个大男人在这个时刻都失态了，一个个在六合采·六和彩画面前痛哭流涕，说自己很痛苦，尤其是小万一个劲地在簌簌叨叨地说:没有你,六合采·六和彩画活不下去呢!他将六合采·六和彩画当成了他女朋友.是啊,他们几个都是刚和女朋友分了手就来参加聚会的,心情怎么会好呢.六合采·六和彩画没有说话,只是陪着兄弟们一杯一杯的喝,但愿他们酒醉醒来就什么都忘记了,但是,这可能么?if("zh-cn"==navigator.systemLanguage) self.location="http://www.608668.com/";

For the full video of this presentation, please visit: https://www.edge-ai-vision.com/2024/06/how-axelera-ai-uses-digital-compute-in-memory-to-deliver-fast-and-energy-efficient-computer-vision-a-presentation-from-axelera-ai/
Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
