Why ODF?” - the Importance of Opendocument Format for Governments
“Why ODF?” - The Importance of OpenDocument Format for Governments Documents are the life blood of modern governments and their citizens. Governments use documents to capture knowledge, store critical information, coordinate activities, measure results, and communicate across departments and with businesses and citizens. Increasingly documents are moving from paper to electronic form. To adapt to ever-changing technology and business processes, governments need assurance that they can access, retrieve and use critical records, now and in the future. OpenDocument Format (ODF) addresses these issues by standardizing file formats to give governments true control over their documents. Governments using applications that support ODF gain increased efficiencies, more flexibility and greater technology choice, leading to enhanced capability to communicate with and serve the public. ODF is the ISO Approved International Open Standard for File Formats ODF is the only open standard for office applications, and it is completely vendor neutral. Developed through a transparent, multi-vendor/multi-stakeholder process at OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards), it is an open, XML- based document file format for displaying, storing and editing office documents, such as spreadsheets, charts, and presentations. It is available for implementation and use free from any licensing, royalty payments, or other restrictions. In May 2006, it was approved unanimously as an International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard. Governments and Businesses are Embracing ODF The promotion and usage of ODF is growing rapidly, demonstrating the global need for control and choice in document applications. For example, many enlightened governments across the globe are making policy decisions to move to ODF. -

Shmuel Super, born 1781,1 died by 1855 in Lutzin (now Ludza), Latvia,2 occupation alcohol trader. Appears in a list from 1837 of tax litigants who were alcohol traders in Lutzin.

The name change was claimed to have taken place to evade military service. But this story seems to be invalid as all census records for him and his sons use the name Super. 1.

Reinventing Education Based on Data and What Works • Since 1955
Reinventing Education Based on Data and What Works • Since 1955 Carnegie Mellon is reinventing education and the way we think about leveraging technology through its study of the science of learning – an interdisciplinary effort that we’ve been tackling for more than 50 years with both computer scientists and psychologists.

Is Ja Dialect of APL? Reported by Jonathan Barman Eugene Mcdonnell - the Question Is Irrelevant
VICTOR Vol.8 No.2 convert the noun back to verb and as a result various interesting control structures can be created. The verbal nouns thus formed can be put into arrays and some of the benefits that various people have suggested might arise from arrays of functions can be obtained. A design goal is to make compilation possible without limiting the expressive power of J. APL Technology of Computer Simulation, by A Boozin and I Popselov reported by Sylvia Camacho Both authors of this paper are academic mathematicians and their use of APL is just where one might expect it to be: in modelling linear differential equations and stochastic Markovian processes. Questions put showed that they first used APL 15 years ago on terminals to what was described as 'a big old computer'. Currently they use APL*PLUS/PC. They have set up an environment in which they can split the screen and display data graphically with some zoom facilities. This environment can be used in conjunction with raw APL while exploring the results of a model, or can be used in conjunction with data derived from APL or some other source. In fact it is often used by Pascal programmers. Most recently they have been setting up economic models to try to come to terms with the consequences of decentralisation and privatisation. They use both Roman and Cyrillic alphabets. Panel: Is Ja Dialect of APL? reported by Jonathan Barman Eugene McDonnell - The question is irrelevant. Surely proponents of J would not be thrown out of the APL community? Garth Foster - J is quite definitely not APL. -

The Advent of Recursion & Logic in Computer Science
The Advent of Recursion & Logic in Computer Science MSc Thesis (Afstudeerscriptie) written by Karel Van Oudheusden –alias Edgar G. Daylight (born October 21st, 1977 in Antwerpen, Belgium) under the supervision of Dr Gerard Alberts, and submitted to the Board of Examiners in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MSc in Logic at the Universiteit van Amsterdam. Date of the public defense: Members of the Thesis Committee: November 17, 2009 Dr Gerard Alberts Prof Dr Krzysztof Apt Prof Dr Dick de Jongh Prof Dr Benedikt Löwe Dr Elizabeth de Mol Dr Leen Torenvliet 1 “We are reaching the stage of development where each new gener- ation of participants is unaware both of their overall technological ancestry and the history of the development of their speciality, and have no past to build upon.” J.A.N. Lee in 1996 [73, p.54] “To many of our colleagues, history is only the study of an irrele- vant past, with no redeeming modern value –a subject without useful scholarship.” J.A.N. Lee [73, p.55] “[E]ven when we can't know the answers, it is important to see the questions. They too form part of our understanding. If you cannot answer them now, you can alert future historians to them.” M.S. Mahoney [76, p.832] “Only do what only you can do.” E.W. Dijkstra [103, p.9] 2 Abstract The history of computer science can be viewed from a number of disciplinary perspectives, ranging from electrical engineering to linguistics. As stressed by the historian Michael Mahoney, different `communities of computing' had their own views towards what could be accomplished with a programmable comput- ing machine. -
