Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Transmission media
Transmission media
are located below
the physical layer
Computers use
signals to represent
data.
Signals are
transmitted in form
of electromagnetic
energy.
6. GUIDED MEDIA
Guided media, which are those that provide a conduit
from one device to another, include twisted-pair cable,
coaxial cable, and fiber-optic cable.
7. Overview
Guided - wire / optical fibre
Unguided - wireless
Characteristics and quality determined by
medium and signal
in unguided media - bandwidth produced by
the antenna is more important
in guided media - medium is more important
Key concerns are data rate and distance
8. Data Rate and Bandwidth
Any transmission system has a limited
band of frequencies
This limits the data rate that can be
carried
9. Design Factors
Bandwidth
higher bandwidth gives higher data rate
Transmission impairments
eg. attenuation
Interference
Number of receivers in guided media
more receivers introduces more attenuation
12. Twisted pair
One of the wires carries signal,
the other is used only as a
ground reference.
The receiver uses the
difference b/w the two levels.
Twisting increases the
probability that both wires are
effected by the noise in the
same manner, thus the
difference at the receiver
remains same.
Therefore, number of twists
per unit length determines the
quality of the cable.
13. Twisted Pair - Transmission
Characteristics
analog
needs amplifiers every 5km to 6km
digital
can use either analog or digital signals
needs a repeater every 2-3km
limited distance
limited bandwidth (1MHz)
limited data rate (100MHz)
susceptible to interference and noise
25. Coaxial cable
Inner conductor is a
solid wire, outer
conductor serves both
as a shield against
noise
26. Coaxial Cable Applications
Most versatile medium
Television distribution
Long distance telephone transmission
Can carry 10,000 voice calls
simultaneously
Short distance computer systems links
Local area networks
27. Coaxial Cable - Transmission
Characteristics
superior frequency characteristics to TP
performance limited by attenuation &
noise
analog signals
amplifiers every few km
closer for higher frequency up to 500MHz
digital signals
repeater every 1km
closer for higher data rates
30. BNC connectors
BNC = Bayone-Neill-
Concelman
BNC Connector is used to
connect the end of the
cable to a device
BNC T is used in
networks to branch out a
cable for connection to a
computer or other device
BNC Terminator is used
at the end of the cable to
prevent the reflection of
signal.
31. Guided Media – Coaxial Cable
Applications:
Analog telephone networks
Cable TV networks
Traditional Ethernet LAN –
10Base2, 10Base5
32. Guided Media – Fiber-Optic Cable
Fiber-optic cable transmit signals in the form of light
33. Bending of light ray
Angle of Incidence
(I): the angle the ray
makes with the line
perpendicular to the
interface between the
two substances
Critical Angle: the
angle of incidence
which provides an
angle of refraction of
90-degrees.
35. Optical fiber
Uses reflection to
guide light through a
channel
Core is of glass or
plastic surrounded by
Cladding
Cladding is of less
dense glass or plastic
37. Optical Fiber - Benefits
greater capacity
data rates of hundreds of Gbps
smaller size & weight
lower attenuation
electromagnetic isolation
greater repeater spacing
10s of km at least
38. Optical Fiber - Transmission
Characteristics
uses total internal reflection to transmit
light
effectively acts as wave guide for 1014 to 1015
Hz
can use several different light sources
Light Emitting Diode (LED)
cheaper, wider operating temp range, lasts longer
Injection Laser Diode (ILD)
more efficient, has greater data rate
relation of wavelength, type & data rate
48. Wireless Transmission

Frequencies between 3 KHz and
1 GHz.
are used for multicasts
communications, such as radio and
television, and paging system.
55. Terrestrial Microwave
used for long haul telecommunications
and short point-to-point links
requires fewer repeaters but line of sight
use a parabolic dish to focus a narrow beam
onto a receiver antenna
1-40GHz frequencies
higher frequencies give higher data rates
main source of loss is attenuation
distance, rainfall
also interference
56. Frequencies between 1 and 300 GHz.

60. Antennas
electrical conductor used to radiate or collect
electromagnetic energy
transmission antenna
radio frequency energy from transmitter
converted to electromagnetic energy by antenna
radiated into surrounding environment
reception antenna
electromagnetic energy impinging on antenna
converted to radio frequency electrical energy
fed to receiver
same antenna is often used for both purposes
61. Radiation Pattern
power radiated in all directions
not same performance in all directions
as seen in a radiation pattern diagram
an isotropic antenna is a (theoretical)
point in space
radiates in all directions equally
with a spherical radiation pattern
62. Antenna Gain
measure of directionality of antenna
power output in particular direction verses
that produced by an isotropic antenna
measured in decibels (dB)
results in loss in power in another
direction
effective area relates to size and shape
related to gain
68. Refraction
velocity of electromagnetic wave is a function of
density of material
~3 x 108 m/s in vacuum, less in anything else
speed changes as move between media
Index of refraction (refractive index) is
sin(incidence)/sin(refraction)
varies with wavelength
have gradual bending if medium density varies
density of atmosphere decreases with height
results in bending towards earth of radio waves
hence optical and radio horizons differ
69. Line of Sight Transmission
Free space loss
loss of signal with distance
Atmospheric Absorption
from water vapour and oxygen absorption
Multipath
multiple interfering signals from reflections
Refraction
bending signal away from receiver
