  • Educational Web Portals
    Educational Web Portals: Guidelines for Selection and Use A guide to help school district administrators assess the quality, usefulness and reliability of commercially provided educational Web portals designed for schools Jennifer Burke What is an educational Web portal? A Web portal is a Web site that allows access to many resources and services, such as instruc- tional materials, lesson plans, news about current events, instant messaging and e-mail, and the ability to conduct controlled searches. Why should school administrators be concerned? Every day companies claim to be “the new center of the classroom community” or “every- thing for K-12 education.” School administrators need to ask key questions before they select commercial Web portals. Each commercial Web portal provides different resources and services, which may include lesson plans, instructional materials, e-mail services, discussion forums, filter- ing services, current news and classroom activities. Administrators need to assess their schools’ needs for a portal and what features will be most useful for teachers, students and parents, and then determine whether resources and services offered by the vendor are appropriate to the schools’ instructional needs and goals. Administrators need to assess the quality and appropriate- ness both of the portal as a whole and of each part of it. Some commercial portal companies claim that what they offer is “free” to schools. Companies that offer “free” portals usually do not charge schools for access to the resources but may have advertisements on the sites or seek information about users. If it is a “pay-for-use” portal, the school needs to determine whether it is worth the cost.

  • Artificial Intelligence Can Boost Reliability and Speed of Medical
    WHITEPAPER 2021 Artificial Intelligence Can Boost Reliability and Speed of Medical Imaging Analysis in Clinical Trials Artificial Intelligence Can Boost Reliability and Speed of Medical Imaging Analysis in Clinical Trials Pharmaceutical firms face many challenges in bringing their products through clinical trials — from enrollment delays to data quality issues — and every advantage can make a difference. In image analysis, sponsors can gain a critical advantage by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) — computer solutions that mimic human intelligence and are continually enhanced and updated to become more accurate as they take in more data. One subset of machine learning, known as deep learning or convoluted neural networks, These benefits are offers high accuracy in image recognition and has applications for medical particularly pronounced 1,2 image analysis and interpretation. For example, in liver and spleen for medical imaging volume measurement, AI and ML allow rapid and efficient assessment of every slice of an image series.3 They also can aid in more accurate in clinical trials, identification, classification and measurement of tumors.4 where eligibility decisions and efficacy evaluations These benefits are particularly pronounced for medical imaging in clinical can be accelerated, trials, where eligibility decisions and efficacy evaluations can be accelerated, and data accuracy and quality improved. AI can reduce and data accuracy and variability in imaging endpoints, enhance the reliability of those endpoints quality improved. for use in statistical models of efficacy and safety, and reduce the cost of providing quantitative endpoints for a trial.5 In the fast-paced clinical trial arena, time is crucial as sponsors aim to get their product candidates in front of regulators before the competition.

  • Microsoft's Internet Exploration: Predatory Or Competitive?
    MICROSOFT'S INTERNET EXPLORATION: PREDATORY OR COMPETITNE? Thomas W Hazlettt In May 1998 the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") accused Microsoft of violatirtg the Sherman Antitrust Act by vigorously compet­ ing against Netscape's Navigator software with Microsoft's rival browser, Internet Explorer. The substance of the allegation revolves around defensive actions taken by Microsoft to protect the dominant po­ sition enjoyed by Microsoft's Windows operating system.

This competition would have come directly from Java, a computer language developed by Sun Microsystems and embedded in Netscape software, allowing applications to run on any underlying operating system. Fearing the spread of Java would render a Windows monopoly moot, the DOJ argues, Microsoft engaged in predatory behavior to pre-empt Netscape and, therefore, Java. This set of allegations can most usefully be analyzed under a four-part test for predation examining opportunity, intent, conduct, and effect. The analysis hereunder shows that while Microsoft's aggressive actions have likely injured specific competitors, the "browser jihad" featured as Ex­ hibit A in the DOJ' s antitrust case is a dramatic illustration of the pro­ consumer consequences of robust market rivalry. I. THE GOVERNMENT'S CASE: PREDATION "To protect its valuable Windows monopoly against such potential competitive threats [from Netscape and other new software products], and to extend its operating system monopoly into other software markets, Microsoft has engaged in a series of anticompetitive activities.
