Claude Chastagner Université Paul Valéry, Montpellier III REBELS ON THE NET What makes popular music popular is not only the nature and content of the songs or the identity of its performers; it is also its availability. Popular music is as much shaped and defined by advertising, marketing, distribution and re- tailing as by lyrics and chords sequences. The sheer amount of literature on the subject is a sobering reminder of how much of a truism this has become.1 However, it is also a field in which fast, permanent evolution necessitates constant monitoring. The development of the Internet was bound to have a momentous impact on popular culture, particularly on the accessibility of the words, sounds and images that define it. Throughout the 1990s, a series of technical innovations gradually made the distribution of music via the Internet more than a dream, and several commercial ventures were launched, probing the possibilities of making music accessible on-line.2 But none gene- rated such a fierce and heated debate as the new generation of digital music- promoting companies led by the much maligned and the much celebrated Napster, and a number of others that came in its wake, Gnutella, Scour, CuteMX, Freenet or iMESH, to name but a few. In the course of the last few months, the music business has indeed been challenged and questioned by companies like Napster that offer a revo- lutionary means to access music.

  • Bandwidth Management and Monitoring for IP Network Traffic: An
    Bandwidth Management and Monitoring for IP Network Traffic: An Investigation Barry Vivian William Irwin Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Master of Science in the Department of Computer Science Rhodes University January 2001 Abstract Bandwidth management is a topic which is often discussed, but on which rela- tively little work has been done with regard to compiling a comprehensive set of techniques and methods for managing traffic on a network. What work has been done has concentrated on higher end networks, rather than the low bandwidth links which are commonly available in South Africa and other areas outside the United States. With more organisations increasingly making use of the Internet on a daily basis, the demand for bandwidth is outstripping the ability of providers to upgrade their infrastructure. This resource is therefore in need of management. In addition, for Internet access to become economically viable for widespread use by schools, NGOs and other academic institutions, the associated costs need to be controlled. Bandwidth management not only impacts on direct cost control, but encompasses the process of engineering a network and network resources in order to ensure the provision of as optimal a service as possible. Included in this is the provision of user education. Software has been developed for the implementation of traffic quotas, dynamic firewalling and visualisation. The research investigates various methods for monitoring and management of IP traffic with particular applicability to low bandwidth links. Several forms of visualisation for the analysis of historical and near-realtime traffic data are also discussed, including the use of three-dimensional landscapes.

  • The Impact of Digital Audio Compression on Society

Along with this, the transfer of illegal audio CODECs and MP3s has exploded into colleges, businesses, and homes. However, this is a convenience that has steadily taken away from music industry profits and power. This project explores the effects of the audio CODEC in today's society, and looks forward to predict its future impact on artists, the record industry, and technology.

  • Why Napster Matters to Writing: Filesharing As a New Ethic of Digital Deliveryଝ
    Computers and Composition 23 (2006) 178–210 Why Napster matters to writing: Filesharing as a new ethic of digital deliveryଝ Danielle` Nicole DeVoss a,∗, James E. Porter b a Writing, Rhetoric, and American Cultures, Michigan State University, 235 Bessey Hall, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA b Writing, Rhetoric, and American Cultures, Michigan State University, 5 Olds Hall, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA Abstract This article discusses the Napster phenomenon and its cultural significance, traces some of the threads of the current “copyright crisis,” and connects these cultural and legal dynamics to show how the current filesharing context of digital environments pertains to issues affecting writing teachers. The article (1) urges writing teachers to view the Napster moment—and the writing practice at the center of it, filesharing—in terms of the rhetorical and economic dynamics of digital publishing and in the context of public battles about copyright and intellectual property and (2) argues that digital filesharing forms the basis for an emergent ethic of digital delivery, an ethic that should lead composition teachers to rethink pedagogical approaches and to revise plagiarism policies to recognize the value of filesharing and to acknowledge Fair Use as an ethic for digital composition. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Keywords: Delivery; Digital rhetoric; Ethics; Filesharing; Napster; Plagiarism We think that Napster matters, or should matter, to writing teachers. That’s not the same as saying that the technology necessarily and specifically matters—we need to draw that important distinction at the outset. Scholars in computers and writing have long recognized that the networked computer changes the fundamental rhetoric of communication, the writing process, writer–reader dynamics, the design of the page or screen, and so on.1 And, to a great ଝ Licensing: This work is licensed under an Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs Creative Commons License (2.0).

  • I. Description II. Rationale III. Policy Administrative Manual
    Administrative Manual Policy Name Information Security Policy Number ADMIN 0082 Date this Version Effective September 2013 Responsible for Content UNC HCS Information Security Council I. Description UNC Healthcare System requirements for protecting confidential information, including but not limited to protected health information (PHI), from inappropriate access or disclosure and/or security breaches. II. Rationale UNC Healthcare System (UNC HCS) and its affiliates (collectively referred to in this policy as “UNC HCS”) continue to increase their dependence upon computer systems for storage, processing and transmission of information. As a result, information is now more readily available in all areas of UNC HCS. This availability, along with regulatory changes that define the requirements for protecting information and the penalties for failing to do so in the healthcare environment, has heightened the necessity for careful controls regarding information security. III. Policy A. Procedure 1. It is the policy of UNC HCS that information, as defined hereinafter, in all its forms--written, spoken, recorded electronically or printed--will be protected from accidental or intentional unauthorized modification, destruction or disclosure throughout its life cycle. This protection includes an appropriate level of security over the equipment and software used to process, store, and transmit that information. 2. All policies and procedures must be documented and made available to individuals responsible for their implementation and compliance. All activities identified by the policies and procedures must also be documented. All the documentation, which may be in electronic form, must be retained for at least 6 (six) years per HIPAA regulations, or more for certain documents if required by applicable laws and regulations, after initial creation, or, pertaining to policies and procedures, after changes are made.
