Vol 14 No 5 4 AUUGN AUUG Newsletter Editorial Welcome to AUUGN Volume 14 Number 5. Well AUUG93 is over, hope everyone that attended the conference enjoyed it and found it worthwhile. In this issue we have comments from both Phil McCrea and Adrian Booth on the conference. Adrian also has some happy snaps from the conference dinner, and Michael Paddon has printed the faces saved on the face saver stand (very useful for recognising some of those characters). As usual, there are notes on a number of local chapter activities, including some calls for participation in the summer conferences. I’ve also included the USENIX announcement and call for papers for their 1994 summer conference, and a note about the UniForum NZ’94 conference (see the footnote to the paper from UniForum NZ’93, page 52 in this issue). For the more technically oriented, there are a number of papers, some that were presented at various of this year’s summer conferences and one presented at UniForum NZ’93. Finally, we also have a reprint (from AUUGN Volume 1 Number 2) of John Lion’s second letter from Bell Labs, and a number of book reviews that Frank has arranged.

It departs from work carried out over the last decades in the field of Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), which provides us with collaborative communication mechanisms that can be regarded from a music perspective in diverse scenarios: Composition, Performance, Improvisation or Education. The first contribution originated from this research work is an extensive survey and systematic classification of Computer-Supported Cooperative Work for Music Applications. This survey led to the identification of innovative approaches, models and applications, with special emphasis on the shared nature of geographically displaced communication over the Internet. The notion of a Shared Sonic Environments was introduced and implemented in a proof-of- concept application entitled Public Sound Objects (PSOs).

Aos meus pais. i ii AGRADECIMENTOS Numa tese que assenta em modelos de aprendizagem colaborativos, que defendem que a aprendizagem é especialmente significativa quando se dá “com o outro”, não podia deixar o seu autor de agradecer a todo um conjunto de pessoas que, pela sua contribuição através de sugestões, críticas ou revisões, tornaram a sua própria aprendizagem (e, consequentemente, este contributo) significativo. Foram muitas as pessoas que participaram directamente ou indirectamente ao longo deste processo. A todos estou grato. Em particular, gostaria de salientar e agradecer: Aos meus orientadores, Leonel Morgado e Benjamim Fonseca, e ao professor Paulo Martins pela constante orientação e revisão dos textos produzidos ao longo de todo este percurso; Ao Carlos Ferreira, Antónia Barreto e Mafalda Belo pelo seu auxílio nos aspectos científicos ligados às ciências sociais e da educação; Aos dois professores do 1º ciclo do ensino básico, professores Pascal Paulus e Augusta Santos, que me abriram as portas das suas salas de aula e me deixaram conduzir este projecto com as suas turmas e nas suas práticas lectivas. Estou também muito agradecido a todos os “pequenotes” que foram, também eles, participantes nesta fase, fruto de uma pedagogia que os ouve e os toma em consideração nos muitos processos de tomada de decisão; Aos meus pais, Manuel e Elisabete Santos, pela constante paciência, encorajamento e confiança.

  • List of TCP and UDP Port Numbers from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia

    List of TCP and UDP Port Numbers from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia

    List of TCP and UDP port numbers From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This is a list of Internet socket port numbers used by protocols of the transport layer of the Internet Protocol Suite for the establishment of host-to-host connectivity. Originally, port numbers were used by the Network Control Program (NCP) in the ARPANET for which two ports were required for half- duplex transmission. Later, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) needed only one port for full- duplex, bidirectional traffic. The even-numbered ports were not used, and this resulted in some even numbers in the well-known port number /etc/services, a service name range being unassigned. The Stream Control Transmission Protocol database file on Unix-like operating (SCTP) and the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) also systems.[1][2][3][4] use port numbers. They usually use port numbers that match the services of the corresponding TCP or UDP implementation, if they exist. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is responsible for maintaining the official assignments of port numbers for specific uses.[5] However, many unofficial uses of both well-known and registered port numbers occur in practice. Contents 1 Table legend 2 Well-known ports 3 Registered ports 4 Dynamic, private or ephemeral ports 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Table legend Official: Port is registered with IANA for the application.[5] Unofficial: Port is not registered with IANA for the application. Multiple use: Multiple applications are known to use this port. Well-known ports The port numbers in the range from 0 to 1023 are the well-known ports or system ports.[6] They are used by system processes that provide widely used types of network services.
