Overview of socket API.
A network socket is an interface for an application to connect to a host‘s network stack (part of the OS). Sockets provide an abstraction of the network. Applications use the transport services available on the socket interface for communication with a peer application.
Transport protocol such as TCP, UDP or SCTP offer different levels of service. TCP for example provides reliable stream-oriented transport service while UDP more reflects the best-effort kind of service provided by the underlying IP protocol layer.
Sockets are bound to a transport address. For TCP/IP sockets this means an IP address and port number.
Sockets provide only very basic data transport services without any higher level functions like parameter marshaling or serialization. These functions have to be performed by the applications. These functions are often hidden in middleware platforms like distributed object technologies (CORBA, RMI, DCOM) or web service frameworks (WCF, JAX-WS).
Multicast sockets make the IP multicast capability accessible to applications. Multicast sockets are often used for streaming services where multiple applications are recipients of the same data packets.

Valedictory Lecture
Making Thinking Visible in Complex Times
Prof Simon Buckingham Shum
This event took place on 15th July 2014 at 4:00pm (15:00 GMT)
Berrill Lecture Theatre, The Open University, Walton Hall Campus, Milton Keynes, United Kingdom
In 1968 Doug Engelbart gave “The Mother of All Demos”: a disruptive technology lab had quietly invented the mouse, collaborative on-screen editing, hyperlinks, video conferencing, and much more. This was the start of the paradigm shift, still unfolding: computers were no longer to be low level number crunchers, but might mediate and mould the highest forms of human thinking, both individual and collective. In this talk I review nearly 19 years in KMi chasing this vision with many colleagues, inventing tools for making dialogue, argument and learning processes visible in different ways. How do we harness such tools to tackle, not aggravate, the fundamental challenge facing the educational system, and its graduates: to think broadly and deeply, and to thrive amidst profound uncertainty and complexity? These are the hallmarks of the OU — and indeed, all true education from primary school onwards.

A new technological paradigm begins to be outlined at the beginning of XXI century. We live in an era that is characterized by an increasing penetration of computers in organizations; the convergence of the media, computers and telecommunications networks; automation of organizations, work processes, greater added value provided by information technology and dissemination and adoption of global technology standards. Thus, information and knowledge become the central resource for people and organizations, allowing them a strategic alignment that creates the conditions necessary to achieve the objectives and fulfill its mission. In this context, we live in a time when there is a transformation of our material culture by the mechanisms of a new technological paradigm that is organized on the basis of information technologies.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.

All the nodes in the network would be equal in status to all

pass, and receive messages. The messages themselves would
be divided into packets, each packet separately addressed.
Each packet would begin at some specified source node, and

participants in an ongoing process, bringing something to it through our interaction with
