This document discusses developing an interface for Open Journal Systems (OJS) using SignWriting to make journal content more accessible to deaf users. The researchers are working to translate the OJS interface and journal articles into Brazilian Sign Language (Libras) using SignWriting. Their methods involve defining terminology, transcribing text into SignWriting, integrating the codes into files, deploying JavaScript codes, and testing with deaf users. Their goals are to refine the methods, apply the approach to other systems, and create more resources to support scientific publications in sign languages.

SIGNWRITING SYMPOSIUM PRESENTATION 60: "The Learning of SignWriting at ANPACIN Bilingual School for the Deaf in Maringá - PR, Brazil" by Daniele Miki Fujikawa Bózoli. Sign languages are a linguistic way of expression for deaf people. In 1974, Valerie Sutton has created her own registration signs system that consists in sign languages. This system is internationally known as SignWriting, which, in Brazil corresponds to Escrita de Sinais, that allows to register the parameters of sign languages as handshapes, locations, movements, orientations and facial expressions. Such system presents itself as possible ally in the deaf students’s education process. However, the SignWriting is not well known by the deaf communities, in addition there are few studies about the impact of SignWriting on the learning of deaf students. The interest of gathering information to enable more conclusive reflections about the SignWriting that has motivated this study. Therefore, this research consists on the learning of school content by the SignWriting system for high school students from ANPACIN - Bilingual School for Deafs of Maringá - Paraná, Brazil. In the course of the empirical study was possible offering to a group of students the basic knowledge of SignWriting, looking up to verify the impact of the knowledge in the academic performance of the participants. As result, it was observed a better performance of the students activities in SignWriting which may represent an additional tool to facilitate the intellectual development of deaf students. Objectively, SignWriting can act in the psychological field as a tool to expand knowledge of the students that can produce significant cognitive gains, in as much as, the systemized system, especially, for the registration of sign languages.

SignWriting in an ASCII World

1. The document discusses SignWriting in an ASCII world and describes how SignWriting can be represented using ASCII characters and strings. 2. Key concepts covered include the use of regular expressions to represent SignWriting symbols and structures, hexadecimal and numeric token patterns to identify symbols and their positions, and query strings which provide a concise way to search large databases of formal SignWriting notations. 3. Representing SignWriting formally with ASCII allows it to be searched and processed programmatically, enabling applications like searching large sign databases and text processing.

The document describes the SignWriting Stack, which allows use of SignWriting on different devices. It consists of layers including fonts, browsers, programming languages, and the SignWriting alphabet. These layers work together to enable SignWriting display and processing across operating systems and with various technologies like CSS, JavaScript, and SVG. The stack is open source and has been implemented in libraries and tools that allow SignWriting input and display.

Self-Service Data Ingestion Using NiFi, StreamSets & Kafka

Guido Schmutz

Many of the Big Data and IoT use cases are based on combining data from multiple data sources and to make them available on a Big Data platform for analysis. The data sources are often very heterogeneous, from simple files, databases to high-volume event streams from sensors (IoT devices). It’s important to retrieve this data in a secure and reliable manner and integrate it with the Big Data platform so that it is available for analysis in real-time (stream processing) as well as in batch (typical big data processing). In past some new tools have emerged, which are especially capable of handling the process of integrating data from outside, often called Data Ingestion. From an outside perspective, they are very similar to a traditional Enterprise Service Bus infrastructures, which in larger organization are often in use to handle message-driven and service-oriented systems. But there are also important differences, they are typically easier to scale in a horizontal fashion, offer a more distributed setup, are capable of handling high-volumes of data/messages, provide a very detailed monitoring on message level and integrate very well with the Hadoop ecosystem. This session will present and compare Apache Flume, Apache NiFi, StreamSets and the Kafka Ecosystem and show how they handle the data ingestion in a Big Data solution architecture.

Commit University

This document discusses HTML5 and web application development. It begins with an overview of the anatomy of a web app, including setting up the server, using data services, and device detection. It then covers HTML5 features like new semantic tags, forms, multimedia capabilities using audio, video, and canvas. JavaScript APIs are discussed for geolocation, web storage, web SQL, and web workers. The document emphasizes that the mobile web is the most viable platform for cross-device applications.

Moving forward with sign language projects in Formal SignWriting

Imagine a world in which every sign language user can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. Sign languages are human languages. Any topic that can be discussed in a spoken language can be discussed in a signed language. It's important to realize the benefits of a person being able to access information in their primary language. It's exciting to realize that sign language wikipedia projects are now possible with Sutton SignWriting.

SignWriting Symposium 2018: Myanmar Signwriting Fingerspelling Keyboards

This document summarizes a presentation on two proposed fingerspelling keyboard layouts for Myanmar Sign Language using SignWriting. It introduces SignWriting and discusses challenges in developing a SignWriting text input interface for Myanmar. Two keyboard layouts are proposed: a phonetic-based layout that maps fingerspelling characters to keys based on pronunciation, and a symbol-based layout that maps characters based on symbol shapes. A user study evaluated the typing speed and usability of each layout with deaf and hearing participants. Results showed that the symbol-based layout had higher typing speeds and was preferred by users.

SIGNWRITING SYMPOSIUM PRESENTATION 61: SignWriting in Unicode Next by Stephen E. Slevinski Jr Unicode is a widely accepted standard for encoding the various writing systems of the world. Sutton SignWriting is encoded with Formal SignWriting (FSW) which is plain text ASCII and equivalent to UTF-8. Last year the Unicode Technical Committee discussed SignWriting and the various data representations. Early August 2016, SignWriting will be discussed at UTC # 148, including a new proposal for Unicode 10. Formal SignWriting is Plain Text. After the Formal SignWriting strings, rich text details can be add to customize the size and color of individual signs and symbols. See: http://www.signwriting.org/symposium/presentation0061.html

1. The document discusses SignWriting, a writing system for sign languages that is supported by the Center for Sutton Movement Writing. 2. SignWriting uses a grid-based system of glyphs and can be encoded in Unicode, with some sign languages encoded in Plane 15 and others in Plane 16. 3. The Center for Sutton Movement Writing aims to provide standardized, stable, and free specifications for encoding various sign languages in fonts and Unicode for wide accessibility across operating systems and devices.

SIGNWRITING IN UNICODE 8 ISSUES 2015 by Stephen E Slevinski Jr

This document discusses issues with encoding SignWriting in Unicode 8. It summarizes the background of the author and history of SignWriting encoding proposals. The main issues are that Unicode 8 is incomplete, flawed, and fictional. It does not support the full 2D layout needed for SignWriting and breaks sorting, searching, and replacements. The author argues the Unicode 8 design will not be used by SignWriting projects and suggests addressing all issues to gain community support.
