The system is compatible with all major mobile device platforms: Blackberry, iPhone, and Windows Mobile.
The Leaders Guide to Getting Started with Automated TestingJames Briers
Conventional testing is yesterday’s news, is required but needs the same overhaul that has happened in development. It needs to be a slicker operation that really identifies the risk associated with release and protects the business from serious system failure. The only way to achieve this is to remove the humans, they are prone to error, take a long time, cost a lot of money and don’t always do what they are told.
Automation needs to be adopted as a total process, not a bit part player. Historically automation has focussed on the User Interface, which can be a start, but is often woefully lacking. Implementing an Automation Eco-System, sees automation drive through to the interface or service layer, enabling far higher reuse of automated scripts, encompasses the environment and the test data within it’s strategy, providing a robust, repeatable and reusable asset.
Don’t just automate the obvious. Automation is not a black box testing technique. Rather it is mirroring the development and building an exercise schedule for the code. Take your testing to the next level and realise the real benefits of a modern Automation Eco-system.

What to Fix-First: Accessibility Remediation Order MattersSean Kelly
Whether one is remediating a digital property (e.g., website or mobile application) or providing guidance in the creation of a new one, the order in which issues are addressed is important and affects both the work of the professionals creating the property and its end users.

SolarWinds Application Performance End User Survey (North America)SolarWinds
The proliferation of BYOD, cloud, SaaS and consumer technologies in the workplace have made the application the disruptive technology that will drive business IT into the coming decades. At the same time, the application delivery chain is becoming more complex to support as applications become more networked, virtualization drives IT infrastructure convergence and abstraction and end users become more mobile. These survey findings highlight the impact of application performance and availability on business end users, and their experiences with and expectations of IT when problems arise. Chief among the findings is that while the application is now the heart of businesses of all sizes and its performance is the lifeblood of success, IT continues to struggle to ensure its performance and availability.

Showcasing sustainability at Otago PolytechnicSamuel Mann
Presentation showcasing what is already great in Education for Sustainability at Otago Polytechnic. For workshop for Staff Professional Development day, 30th June 2011. Presenters Niki Bould, Bridie Lonie, Andy Thompson, Morag MacAuley, Samuel Mann
This paper examines the collaborative underpinning of sustainability and suggests the adoption of collaboration as a basis for developing a Sustainable Lens.
A Sustainable Lens can be seen at multiple levels: a goal for an actual object (similar to the soldier centric SCENICC); a description for wider efforts in sustainable computing; a plea to recognise that all computing needs to be considered as part of a sustainability ethic; or as a conception for an internal heads-up display.

Accessibility is More Than a Compliance CheckboxApplause
Everyone is a potential consumer – but, it is your job to provide them with experiences that can be equally accessed. Now more than ever, it is critical for organizations to meet accessibility standards. Not only to capture the one-quarter of U.S. population living with a disability, but to improve the overall quality and inclusivity of your digital experiences.
Mark Lapole, Lead Product Manager of Accessibility at eBay, discusses how the ecommerce retailer designed, tested and launched a comprehensive accessibility program with real users in real-world scenarios.
A vendor, or a supplier, is a supply chain management term that means anyone who provides goods or services to a company or individuals i.e. WEB ERA Company is the vendor for panacea ERP software.
According to the 2013 UK ERP selection guide, we will need to assess the vendors who are most appropriate to our organization and what size of resources, geographic coverage and breadth of product rage we expect them to have.

Regenerative Computing: De-limiting hopeSamuel Mann
In computing there is a small but growing community who desire to make sense of the role of computing in a world with limits. This community has provided a much needed
critical perspective on what has otherwise been computing’s contribution to a worsening world state, or at best a weak sustainability. But, by framing the biophysical and social environment as limited, there is a danger of adopting a negative and overly pessimistic approach with the effect of marginalising our message and contribution to computing. Previous attempts to address the tension between a limited world and a positive approach have been foundered on concerns that a techno-utopia is not only unrealisable but efforts to achieve it are exacerbating the problem. In this paper we explore the potential for an explicitly positive approach to computing within limits research: regenerative computing. We describe what regenerative computing within limits might look like and suggest a way forward. We expect this new approach to transform the computing and sustainability discourse, and empower the computing within limits community to become ambassadors of hope and regenerative sustainability.

A transformation mindset as the basis for sustainable community developmentSamuel Mann
Presented at the International Association of Community Development and
ACDA New Zealand conference, Auckland, NZ, February 15-17 2017
This paper raises the question of the implications of Community Development in accepting sustainable development as an underlying philosophy. We develop a sustainable transformation mindset that can be used to guide community development initiatives. We then briefly explore the role of work-based professional practice education in a “Capable Value set”. In examining education based on this approach we find that the learning community based and transformative - both for the learner and the community. As an example, we then suggest how it could be applied by using as lens for sustainable iwi development.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

62. Value Proposition
The Swarmtech project has addressed the
problem of overly expensive and time
consuming Land Search And Rescue (L.S.A.R.)
equipment and procedures. We are engineering
drones along with on-board software that will
lower search time and cost.
63. Solution
• Building Drones (Quadcopters)
• Making them autonomous
• Programming them to fly in swarm!
• Giving them colour recognition ability
• Programming them to recognise and work
with GPS
64. Project Management
Dan Murphy
The Swarmtech project management project has
addressed the problem of collaboration and
communication between the two groups of
Swarmtech and the Research Group. This has
resulted with higher work standards, a much
better idea of how each group member
understands their own roles along with a clearer
idea of how to perform more efficiently as a
team.
66. Value proposition
• The Swarmtech hardware project has
addressed the problem of overly expensive
surveillance equipment used by Land Search
And Rescue. A prototype drone has been
successfully integrated with the support
software since November 2013 and in field
testing since July 2014. Along side this testing
a production line for the swarm of drones has
been up and running as of February 2014
70. Value Proposition
• The Swarmtech software project has
addressed the problem of collecting and
processing data from the swarm of drones.
The data from a swarm of drones has been
successfully collected and processed since
November 2013.
71. Our Solution
• A Computer based application
• User plans the swarms search area
• Drone data processing
• Possible targets highlighted
75. VALUE PROPOSITION STATEMENT
• The Qntfi project has addressed the problem of Insurance Companies taking months to
process an insurance quote. The idea behind QQM is to give the same accuracy in these
quotes but in less time, these quotes will also be updated as material prices change.
Since the insurance valuation process can take months, the rate of revaluations are low,
which causes high risk on consumers. This product has been in use since April 2014 in
which time 80 orders have been processed, with a 75% decrease in processing times.
