  • Web 2.0 Services
    Web 2.0 services: these objects are closer than they appear EDUCAUSE Evolving Technologies Committee Malcolm Brown, Dartmouth College [email protected] September, 2006 What is it? Web 2.0 services are a very broad range of network-based, cross platform services. This is an area that is expanding rapidly, so rapidly in fact that columnists and bloggers are drawing parallels to the dot com boom. The diversity of these services and their relentless pace of evolution make it challenging to define this evolving technology succinctly. A useful O’Reilly article1 suggests that the “Web 2.0” is less of a standard and more of a “gravitational core,” drawing applications into a common technology and functionality space rather than riveting them in place by means of a firm engineering standard. Much has already been written about these services, so there is no need to recapitulate that here. The O’Reilly article provides an excellent overview. But what may not be apparent unless you are following this technology closely is that it is evolving, expanding, and diversifying at an astonishing rate, and it is coming—has come—to a campus near you. While it might be difficult to define web services in a sentence or two, we can try to get a handle on it by identifying the technology’s key characteristics. They are diverse. Emily Chang’s eHub site2 provides an excellent overview of Web services. At last count, she documents 1,066 web-based resources using 64 categories, including business, Internet phone and TV, audio and music, collaboration and management, mashups, social web, travel, e-learning, e-mailing (and many more).

  • ASHC Welcomes Dr. Hsieh and Trustees to Townhall 400 Enjoy Gala
    Nov. 22, 2019 Note to readers: The President’s Weekly Report will take a break for the Thanksgiving holiday and resume the following week. ASHC welcomes Dr. Hsieh and trustees to Townhall Members of the Hartnell Community College District Board of Trustees and I were delighted on Nov. 18 to participate in a Townhall Meeting organized by the Associated Students of Hartnell College (ASHC). Joined by ASHC President and Student Trustee Samantha Saldana, who helped initiate this opportunity for dialogue, we each shared information about our personal backgrounds and why we are inspired to serve Hartnell College. About 50 students attended the event in the Student Center on Main Campus, and they asked thoughtful questions about how to support and honor student diversity at Hartnell and how the college will maintain high-quality student services on its satellite campuses, including the new centers being constructed in Soledad and Castroville. ASHC Secretary Robert Cali Rendon served as moderator. I know all of the trustees who participated shared the sentiment expressed by Board President Aurelio Salazar Jr., who said at the Nov. 19 board meeting that he looked forward to another town hall session in the future.

  • Eyeos As the Cloud Computing Working Together IBM and Eyeos Are Making Available a Sample Virtual Linux Desktop Workload for the Solution Edition for Cloud Computing
    INTRODUCTION To The Web Operating System Submitted By: - Vijay Soni V Sem. (Computer Engineering) Govt. Engg. College, Ajmer Written in : PHP, XML, JavaScript Platform : Cross-platform Available in : Multilingual Type : Web Operating System License : AGPL Website : http://eyeos.org Introduction : WebOS and Web operating system are terms that describe networnetwonetworkrkk services for Internet scale distributed computing, as in the WebOS Project at UC Berkeley, and the WOS Project. In both cases the scale of the web operating system extends across the IntInternet,ernet, like the web.. “More generally, WebOS refers to a software platform that interacts with the user through a web browser and does not depend on any particular local operating system ” In a way the term is a misnomer, because it doesn’t mmeeanan a ‘real’ Operating System in the traditional sense - like Linux or Windows. A better term is probably ‘Web Desktop’… WEBTOP is another name for WebOS… What Is EyeOS? eyeOS is an open source web desktop following the cloud computing concept that seeks to enable collaboration and communication among users. It is mainly written in PHP, XML, and JavaScript. It acts as a platform for web applications written using the eyeOS Toolkit. It includes a Desktop environment with applications and system utilities. It is accessible by portable devices via its mobile front end. These services turn the desktop into a service that runs on the Internet rather than on the local computer. As these services include a file system and application management system, they increasingly overlap with the functionality of a traditional desktop computer operating system From a technical point of view, eyeOS is a platform for web applications, created with the idea to make easier the development of these applications.
