The Jisc Research Data Shared Service (RDSS) is a
project that will integrate the offerings of a number of
repository, preservation, storage, reporting and information
management providers in order to allow UK universities to
easily deposit data for publication, discovery, safe storage,
and long-term archiving and preservation. This is a pilot
project until April 2018 working with 17 UK universities with
the overarching aim to ensure the long-term accessibility of
valuable research data, allowing it to be reused and shared.

From paper to digits. Challenges and opportunities of Digital reserachLIBIS
Technology is everywhere. In most, if not all research projects, hard- and software are used aplenty. Moreover, when you look at the research data lifecycle, it is hard to think of data collection, analysis, preservation, and reuse in terms of paper. Policy makers and funders alike are encouraging projects with an IT component. As a result, new tools, databases and data models sprout from every research project; the original goal of sharing and collaboration surpassed by the conviction that there is a need for this particular software or that custom developed database. This is not entirely a bad thing, since it also drives innovation and brings new perspectives to the use of digital components in research. The problem lies more in the sustainability of the developed tools and databases after the
project s' lifetime. This presentation focuses on the challenges of research infrastructure sustainability and the important role that national and pan-European research infrastructures such as DARIAH can play in providing researchers with best practices and support in building and maintaining access to innovative tools, databases and datasets.

This breakout session will introduce a case study covering
the development of Research Data Management services and
systems at King’s College London. The focus will be on researcher engagement and analysis of user requirements – these are activities which are indispensable components in developing systems and services. A question that will be considered is: how can the requirements of other stakeholders such as the university and research funders be met in this process?
News recommenders have the potential to help users filter the enormous amount of news that is available online, and as such may play an important role in determining what information users do and do not get to see. However, current approaches to evaluating recommender systems are often focused on measuring an increase in user clicks and short-term engagement, rather than measuring the user's and society’s longer term interest in diverse and important recommendations. In this talk we aim to bridge the gap between so-called normative notions of news diversity, as it is known in social sciences and specifically democratic theory, and quantitative metrics necessary for evaluating the recommender system. We discuss a number of democratic missions a recommender system could have, together with a set of evaluation metrics stemming from these missions, and suggest ways for practical implementations of these metrics.
The talk will be about practical considerations that our team has had to make in order to bring a recommender system into production. I’ll cover the “default” tools with which we started (Batch processing in Spark) and follow that up with more recent tools like AWS Lambda and Spark Streaming.

Jenny Mitcham from the University of York and Chris Awre from the University of Hull share lessons learned from their project to explore the potential of the digital preservation solution Archivematica to help manage research data that academics within the University produce. The project 'Filling the Digital Preservation Gap' has been carried out with funding from Jisc as part of their Research Data Spring program and was a collaboration of the University of York and the University of Hull. The project did not only explore Archivematica as a possible solution but also how it could integrate with the repositories and other systems for the management of research data.
The Series is jointly sponsored by ANDS and CAUL.

The Scholarly Repository at UNA: Using the NASIG Core Competencies for Schola...NASIG
Presenter: Jennifer Pate
How do you get started when your campus first adopts an Institutional Repository? What content and collections should you focus on first? How do you prioritize your campus partnerships? Who do you build rapport with first, faculty or students or administration? These questions, along with questions of copyright management, data management, metrics, and technical support, can overwhelm a new Scholarly Communication librarian. The combination of the relative newness and the lack of formal mentoring in our field can sometimes make it seem like you are fighting an uphill battle alone.
In August 2017, NASIG approved and adopted a set of core competencies that can serve as a roadmap for a new Scholarly Communications Librarian working to promote and build collections for a campus IR. This talk will address how to utilize the specific competencies to help target what items you should work on and when – how to get up-to-speed on what you need to know quickly so that you can effectively communicate your IR goals to your campus community as well as how to set short- and long-term competency goals. Using examples from her own ScholCom learning curve and campus IR set-up, this presenter will share her successes, lessons learned, and expectations for future IR growth on her campus.

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.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
