Five considerations when constructing your world class African networkbradleyhemphill
The document summarizes five considerations for constructing a world-class African network:
1. Networks need to be designed and operated like a utility in order to scale effectively.
2. Networks must be standards-based to facilitate scaling and maximize the value of network assets.
3. Design and technologies that enable rapid deployment are necessary given the context in Africa.
4. Low skill requirements for deployment and maintenance are a necessity in Africa.
5. Networks must be designed and maintained to allow for live maintenance while the network is operational.
GÉANT operates a pan-European network that interconnects National Research and Education Networks across Europe to support over 50 million academic users. It runs a membership association for these NRENs, coordinates EU-funded projects, and manages a portfolio of services for research and education communities. GÉANT designs, builds, and operates a high-capacity network to share and process large data volumes for research and allow testing of new technologies.
The ARCHIVER project is a 36-month, 3.4M euro procurement to develop archiving and data preservation services for scientific data using commercial cloud services. It includes several procuring organizations and expert partners. The project aims to address the challenges of archiving petabyte-scale scientific data under fair and standardized principles. It will develop services aligned with OAIS reference models through an open tender process involving suppliers. The resulting commercialized services could support various European research infrastructures and the European Open Science Cloud.

Realizzare applicazioni cross-platform con Xamarin e il pattern MVVMCodemotion
"Realizzare applicazioni cross-platform con Xamarin e il pattern MVVM" by Matteo Pagani.
Xamarin è una delle tecnologie più interessanti quando si parla di sviluppo cross-platform, in quanto permette di riutilizzare le proprie conoscenze di C# per realizzare applicazioni con le stesse feature e performance di un'applicazione nativa. Usare Xamarin, però, non significa solamente poter realizzare app Android e iOS in C#, ma anche e soprattutto non dover scrivere e mantenere codebase completamente diverse. In questa sessione vedremo come poter massimizzare il riutilizzo di codice tra le diverse versioni della nostra applicazioni, aiutandoci con il pattern MVVM.

Supply Chain Procurement | Jane Mellor, Head of Operational Procurement, NI W...Invest Northern Ireland
This document discusses NI Water's procurement processes. It outlines NI Water's capital and operational expenditure forecasts of approximately £135 million and £75 million respectively for 2016-2017. It then describes some of the key platforms that NI Water uses to advertise tender opportunities, such as Tenders Electronic Daily, eTendersNI, and eTenders Ireland. The rest of the document provides guidance to suppliers on standards, common market opportunities, common bidding errors, an upcoming supplier day event, and additional resources.
This document discusses the transition to building information modeling (BIM) in Ireland's construction industry. It argues that the speed of BIM adoption will determine whether it presents a challenge or opportunity. It notes that the design and construction process could be improved through greater supply chain collaboration using BIM. However, it stresses the importance of distinguishing between benefits of BIM for clients versus the supply chain. The document calls for a client-led approach and further exploration of how to best present BIM benefits to clients in different sectors to drive adoption.

This document provides an overview of managing digital footprints. It discusses what a digital footprint is, research conducted at the University of Edinburgh on digital footprints, and factors that contribute to one's digital footprint such as social media, location data, and online searches. The document notes that digital footprints can impact professional and personal reputation. It provides tips for taking ownership of one's digital footprint such as regularly searching for oneself online and reviewing privacy settings. Resources for further information and managing digital footprints are also listed.
The document discusses using digital technology and maps to represent the HMS Iolaire tragedy, a maritime disaster in 1919 where 205 men from the Isle of Lewis died after returning from World War I. It describes adding photos, text, and showing change over time to maps to help tell the story and create a sense of place. Specific details are provided about the journey the men took from England to the Western Isles on New Year's Day 1919 and how maps at different scales can portray events in different ways.
This document introduces Digimap for Schools, an online mapping service designed for schools to use in geography and other subjects. It has Ordnance Survey maps of Great Britain at different zoom levels, as well as historic maps and aerial photography. Students can add their own labels, markers, and other elements to maps. The service allows measuring distances and areas. It is browser-based and can be accessed from school or home. Over 2,690 schools in Britain currently use the service, including 185 Scottish secondary schools. The document outlines how Digimap for Schools can support teaching and learning in subjects beyond geography like numeracy, social studies, sciences, and more. Examples of lessons and activities using the mapping service are provided.
This document provides an introduction to Digimap for Schools, an online mapping service designed for use in UK schools. It highlights key features such as access to historic maps from the 1890s and 1950s, aerial photography, and tools for annotating, measuring, and analyzing maps. Schools subscribe to the service, which allows unlimited users per school to access maps and tools through a web browser on any device. The presenter emphasizes how Digimap for Schools can support teaching and learning across the Scottish curriculum, particularly for geography, by facilitating hands-on activities with maps, data, and spatial analysis. Examples are given of how schools have used the service for topics like land use change, density calculations, and proportional mapping. Teachers observing the presentation

Big Just Got Bigger! discusses the challenges of managing large map collections through the Digimap service. Digimap provides access to geospatial data from various sources, including Ordnance Survey, British Geological Survey, aerial imagery, and more. It has grown significantly over time to include more data sources and users. Managing such large datasets and meeting user expectations of current data and performance presents challenges. Issues include keeping data current while sharing across platforms, disk storage needs increasing exponentially over time, and ensuring data can be accessed and used through various tools and formats.
This document summarizes new and enhanced features in Digimap services from 2015-2016. Key updates include a refreshed homepage, responsive design for tablets, a new historic downloader application, marine chart roam with updated data, additions to ancient roam, land cover vector data, and improvements to geology, marine, and OS data. Usability and performance enhancements were also made, such as improved geo-referencing, easier use of 3D data, and a more reliable backend system.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

We firstly want to serve the Dutch research community, our 14 universities. The e-journals they subcribed to, will need to be preserved in our e-Depot. We investigated how we covered this. To speed up the pro cess we will collaborate with Portico and they will send us the missing titles. We foresee more collaboration with Portico, in the area of Open Access and Research topics.
All tthese activities are not reflected in our holdings in the Keepers registry, as we stopped sending information in 2012 due to our migration exercise. But it is planned that in 2016 we will update our information.
