In celebrations that often lastmany days, tribes serve sumptuous meals and re-enact legends about clans and ancestors using songs, dances, masks, costumes, and drums. They raise totem poles and often present gifts to all guests. Through this custom, cultural ties are renewed and strengthened. We have selected a modified version of a potlatch as the theme for the NECC '97 conference to honor this Northwest Native American tradition. Among technology educators, conferences are multi-faceted events markinga coming together to share information and learn. In events that often lastmany days, food and drink is shared, learning with technology is celebrated, the latest and greatest hardware and software are examined in relation to learning, ande- mail addresses and Web sites are exchanged. All participants contributeto a growing body of knowledge that they in turn take back with them. Through this custom, everyone leaves motivated and rejuvenated. Western Washington University is proud to be your host in 1997 and sharing all that Seattle and the Northwest have to offer. This volume of the NECC '97 Conference Proceedings reports on the trends, practices, and research in the field of educational technology. It provides a snapshot of the National Educational Computing Conference and the state of technology in education at the conclusion of the 1997 school year. This report is the result of the cumulative efforts of many individuals around the world.

  • System-On-Chip FPGA Devices for Complex Electrical Energy Systems Control
    1 System-on-Chip FPGA Devices for Complex Electrical Energy Systems Control I. INTRODUCTION IGITAL electronics has become a standard for controlling electrical systems. This is due to the D constant improvement of the digital devices, whether in terms of density, performance, flexibility of use or cost reduction [1]. This paper looks into System-on-Chip (SoC) Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for controlling complex electrical energy systems. These devices encompass multicore floating point microprocessors embedded with standard peripherals together with an FPGA fabric that allows the design of custom peripherals and specific hardware accelerators. Thus, SoC FPGA devices can be regarded as a good compromise between “super” microcontrollers (very fast in terms of computation but with a fixed micro-architecture) and pure FPGAs (ideal for specific concurrent micro-architectures but limited in terms of density). SoC FPGA architectures are discussed and compared with state-of-the-art DSP-controllers, since they can also be qualified as SoC devices as they are integrating floating point microprocessor cores and substantial peripherals. The main differences between these two groups of devices lies in the opportunity offered to the designer by the SoC FPGAs to customize the SoC device via its internal FPGA fabric. Two case studies demonstrate that with SoC FPGAs one can go beyond standard control by introducing new auxiliary functions that enhance market competitiveness. The first application concerns a fuel cell hybrid electric system controlled by passivity-based power management associated with an aging prognosis algorithm. For this application, it is shown that the time and cost constraints justify the use of a soft processor core to implement the controller.

(2021) The erasure of Kwakwaka'wakw First Nations' rich culture and history has transpired for hundreds of years. This destruction of heritage has caused severe damage to traditional oral storytelling and the history and knowledge interwoven with this ancient practice. Under the guidance of Northwest Coast artist and author David Neel, we worked towards reintroducing this storytelling tradition to contemporary audiences through modern media and digital technologies.

  • Test Suite Optimisation Based on Response Status Codes and Measured Code Coverage
    DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING Tuomas Parttimaa TEST SUITE OPTIMISATION BASED ON RESPONSE STATUS CODES AND MEASURED CODE COVERAGE Master’s Thesis Degree Programme in Computer Science and Engineering April 2013 Parttimaa T. (2013) Test Suite Optimisation Based on Response Status Codes and Measured Code Coverage. University of Oulu, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Degree Programme in Computer Science and Engineering, Oulu, Finland, Master’s Thesis, 78 pp., 2 Appendices. ABSTRACT A software test suite often comprises of thousands of distinct test cases. There- fore, the execution of an unoptimised test suite might waste valuable time and resources. In order to avoid the unnecessary execution of redundant test cases, the test suite should be optimised to contain fewer test cases. This thesis focuses on the optimisation efforts of a commercially available Hypertext Transfer Proto- col (HTTP) fuzzing test suite. A test setup was created for the optimisation purposes. The test setup con- sisted of the given fuzzing test suite, five different HTTP server implementations used as test subjects, and a code coverage measurement tool. Test runs were ex- ecuted against the five test subjects with the test suite, and at the same time code coverage was measured from the test subjects. In this thesis, three different types of test suite optimisation algorithms were implemented. The original test suite was optimised by applying the optimisation algorithms to the results of the test runs. Another set of test runs were performed with the optimised subset suites, while again measuring code coverage from the same test subjects. All of the coverage measurement results are presented and analysed.

  • Raven a Trickster Tale from The-Pacific
    Book Title: Raven: A Trickster Tale from the Pacific Northwest Written and Illustrated by Gerald McDermott Annotation: Many First Nations peoples have stories about tricksters (Raven, Coyote, Wisahkecahk, to name a few). They are generally humorous, with a strong message regarding how one ought to behave or how to treat others. The beautiful illustrations of this book make it a wonderful teaching tool for art Tricksters. This would also be an excellent book to help with the learning about a community in another part of Canada. Text Set on tricksters: Coyote Christmas: A Lakota Story, Raven Tales, Coyote’s Trick, Nanabosho and the Cranberries, Love and Roast Chicken: A Trickster Tale from the Andes Mountains, Raven Goes Berrypicking (Cameron), The Navajo Year, Trickster: Native American Tales, A graphic collection. Text Set on Artists: Emily Carr at the Edge of the world (Jo Ellen Bogart), Four pictures by Emily Carr (Nicolas Debon), Discovering Emily (Jacqueline Pearce) Links to Haida artist Bill Reid http://theravenscall.ca/en/art • Link to another version of this story told by Bill Reid http://www.civilization.ca/cmc/exhibitions/aborig/reid/reid14e.shtml Projects, Ideas and Activities: 1. Follow the link to Haida artist Bill Reid. There are lesson plans provided if you are interested in learning more. 2. Use a map to locate the Haida Gwaii (formerly Queen Charlotte Islands). Why was the name changed? If studying the Haida Gwaii as a community, document the changes over time. 3. Research and learn about Emily Carr who documented traditional Haida life through her art. Compare to what we learn by googling today.
