OpenSocial is a social graph API that indexes public websites and shows connections between people based on "me" and "friend" links using open standards like XFN and FOAF. It has been implemented by sites that provide a social context for applications, called containers, allowing apps to see users as people without re-registration. Containers set up a social model for over 300 million users to join based on shared interests, growing their networks through similarities.

Este documento resume conceptos clave de la estática como vectores cartesianos, vectores unitarios, ángulos directores, vector de posición, producto escalar, ley de seno y ley de coseno. Explica que los vectores cartesianos descomponen una fuerza en componentes a lo largo de los ejes x e y. Los vectores unitarios tienen magnitud unitaria y están dirigidos a lo largo de los ejes. La ley de seno relaciona la longitud de un lado de un triángulo con el seno del ángulo opuesto, mientras que la ley
This document contains letters of recommendation for Jijo Reed from four film production companies - Sony Pictures, Hannibal Pictures, Filmhouse, and RTE - as she is applying for a position or project. It also provides Jijo Reed's contact information.
The document discusses N. Sivasothi's use of blogs for communication purposes from 2003 to the present. It describes how module and student blogs at NUS can be used as:
1) A quick and useful tool to point to interesting links from readings, share text and personal thoughts, and create an archive of useful information.
2) A way for students to write and communicate and for modules to point students to links rather than foster discussions.
3) Something that requires guidelines, structure, brevity, and credibility if used for student marking. Manual addition of class user IDs may also be needed.
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.
Data-Intensive Text Processing with MapReduce George Ang
The document discusses using MapReduce for graph algorithms like single source shortest path, PageRank, and describes how graphs can be represented through adjacency matrices and lists. It provides an example of Dijkstra's algorithm for finding shortest paths in a graph and discusses how to implement breadth-first search for single source shortest path using MapReduce.
Agile development practice has gained popularity in the last few years. India has so far been riding on CMMI bandwagon, with companies vying with each other to get CMMI certification. Recently, we are seeing more and more projects being executed using agile methodologies. This has also brought with it, some challenges. Not all of them are unique to agile, but they tend to manifest earlier and has higher impact in agile.
While there are different types of challenges, here, we are focusing on the Indian cultural ones. Also, we are looking at the challenges in a joint product development – where work is done both by offshore team (which is typically the outsourced organization) and the onsite team (the client team).
After we elaborate on the challenges, we present how we have tried to solve them in our current client engagement.
