The document provides a brief history of post-war construction systems used in the UK between 1944-1980, including HILLS, CLASP, SCOLA, SEAC, and CMW. It describes typical elements like wall and beam dimensions, column sizes, roof designs, and cladding materials. It notes that systems were often engineered tightly with little flexibility for additional loading. Asbestos was commonly used for fire protection and cladding. An example project refurbishing a community college campus in Whitstable, Kent is discussed, showing the challenge of upgrading a piecemeal development mixing new construction with renovated areas.
This document summarizes feedback received on a student's media trailer project for a soap opera. The feedback praised the effective soundtrack choice, noting that the instrumental Arctic Monkeys song fit well with the conflict depicted and would appeal to the target demographic. However, the feedback also pointed out that the student should aim for a more inclusive audience and cast by incorporating female characters. Overall, the feedback suggested the trailer was strong in conveying conflict through sound and visuals but could improve on representation.
This document summarizes Liam Barnes' media production evaluating his soap opera trailer and ancillary texts. It discusses how the trailer uses conventions of real soap operas through its parallel storylines, enigma, and point of view narrative. It also analyzes how the trailer, magazine cover, and billboard maintain consistency through codes, genres, demographics, and reality representation. Audience feedback supported the effective soundtrack but suggested improving institutional representation. Media technologies like Adobe Photoshop, Premiere, YouTube and digital storyboarding supported production, research and evaluation stages.
VMware ESX Server uses several novel techniques to efficiently manage memory resources across virtual machines:
1. A "ballooning" technique reclaims pages considered least valuable by the guest operating system in a virtual machine.
2. An "idle memory tax" achieves efficient memory utilization while maintaining performance isolation between virtual machines.
3. Content-based page sharing and hot I/O page remapping eliminate redundancy and reduce copying overheads by transparently remapping identical pages between virtual machines.
These techniques allow overcommitting of memory resources across virtual machines while still providing performance guarantees. They are coordinated by allocation policies that dynamically assign memory based on workload and system load.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
This document describes and analyzes a student's media production project creating a soap opera brand called "Friends and Foes". It discusses the trailer, magazine cover, and billboard created for the brand and how they establish genre, represent the target demographic of teenagers, maintain visual and tonal consistency, and follow conventions of real media. The student emphasizes conflict, trouble, and serious facial expressions throughout the ancillary texts and trailer to clearly position it as a soap opera and engage the intended audience.
