Podcasting Basics (1 of 8) Podcasting Basics (1 of 8) What is a Podcast? •A podcast is a collection of audio or audio and video files residing at a unique web feed address. •A podcast is downloaded from the Internet for playback on portable media players (e.g., MP3 players) and personal computers. •There is no live broadcast of content (i.e., no streaming). The material is pre-recorded and users can download the material and access it offline, at their leisure. (From WIkipedia - paraphrased) Podcasting Basics Terms(2 of 8) (OPTIONAL) •Web Feed: A data format used for serving users frequently updated content (news/blog, audio, video, etc.) RSS – ATOM •RSS: <rss version="2.0“></rss> (Really Simple Syndication, Rich Site Summary or…) Often used interchangeably with web feed XML-based format for content distribution (About.com: Radio – paraphrased) A content delivery vehicle (Pressfeed - paraphrased) •ATOM: <feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"> </feed> (Atom Publishing Protocol) The main motivation for the development of Atom was dissatisfaction with RSS Another XML-based format for content distribution •Syndication: Makes content available to… individual subscribers. (A web feed is the most usual kind of web syndication.) •Aggregator: (e.g., RRS/XML, i-Tunes, My Yahoo, My MSN, Juice) An aggregator (AKA, feed aggregator, feed reader, RSS reader, news reader, search aggregator, etc.), checks for new content at user-determined intervals and retrieves the update.

  • Formal Aspects of Mobile Code Security
    FORMAL ASPECTS OF MOBILE CODE SECURITY RICHARD DREWS DEAN ADISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE FACULTY OF PRINCETON UNIVERSITY IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY RECOMMENDED FOR ACCEPTANCE BY THE DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE JANUARY 1999 c Copyright by Richard Drews Dean, 1998. All Rights Reserved Abstract We believe that formal methods of all kinds are critical to mobile code security, as one route to gaining the assurance level necessary for running potentially hos- tile code on a routine basis. We begin by examining Java, and understanding the weaknesses in its architecture, on both design and implementation levels. Iden- tifying dynamic linking as a key problem, we produce a formal model of linking, and prove desirable properties about our model. This investigation leads to a deep understanding of the underlying problem. Finally, we turn our attention to crypto- graphic hash functions, and their analysis with binary decision diagrams (BDDs). We show that three commonly used hash functions (MD4, MD5, and SHA-1) do not offer ideal strength against second preimages. The ability of a cryptographic hash function to resist the finding of second preimages is critical for its use in digi- tal signature schemes: a second preimage enables the forgery of digital signatures, which would undermine confidence in digitally signed mobile code. Our results show that modern theorem provers and BDD-based reasoning tools are effective for reasoning about some of the key problems facing mobile code security today. iii Acknowledgments My advisor, Andrew Appel, offered sure guidance through what turned out to be an exceptionally smooth journey through graduate school.

July/August 2010 Print | Close Closing the Digital Frontier THE ERA OF THE WEB BROWSER’S DOMINANCE IS COMING TO A CLOSE. AND THE INTERNET’S FOUNDING IDEOLOGY—THAT INFORMATION WANTS TO BE FREE, AND THAT ATTEMPTS TO CONSTRAIN IT ARE NOT ONLY HOPELESS BUT IMMORAL— SUDDENLY SEEMS NAIVE AND STALE IN THE NEW AGE OF APPS, SMART PHONES, AND PRICING PLANS. WHAT WILL THIS MEAN FOR THE FUTURE OF THE MEDIA—AND OF THE WEB ITSELF? By Michael Hirschorn IMAGE CREDIT: JASON SCHNEIDER AS CHRIS ANDERSON pointed out in a moment of non-hyperbole in his book Free, the phrase Information wants to be free was never meant to be the rallying cry it turned into. It was first uttered by Stewart Brand at a hacker conference in 1984, and it came with a significant disclaimer: that information also wants to be expensive, because it can be so important (see “Information Wants to Be Paid For,” in this issue). With the long tail of Brand’s dictum chopped off, the phrase Information wants to be free—dissected, debated, reconstituted as a global democratic rallying cry against monsters of the political, business, and media elites—became perhaps the most powerful meme of the past quarter century; so powerful, in fact, that multibillion-dollar corporations destroyed their own businesses at its altar. 1 of 5 6/9/10 1:19 PM The Atlantic :: Magazine :: Closing the Digital Frontier http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/print/2010/07/closing-the..

  • Introduction
    MERLOT Journal of Online Learning and Teaching Vol. 5, No. 4, December 2009 Impact of Video Tutorials in an Online Educational Statistics Course Thomas A. DeVaney Southeastern Louisiana University Hammond, LA 70402 USA [email protected] Abstract This research describes the evaluation of video tutorials used in a graduate level online statistics course. The evaluation focused on attitudes toward the tutorials and differences in academic performance between online sections that used the tutorials and those that did not. Attitude results were based on 78 students who completed an online survey and indicated positive perceptions of the tutorials. The quantitative findings were supported by narrative comments that suggested the tutorials were an effective component of the course. However, comparisons of sections with and without access to the tutorials showed no statistically significant difference with respect to academic performance. These results suggest that video presentations used as supplemental materials may provide instructional designers with a tool to create online courses that are as effective as traditional face-to-face courses. Keywords: Virtual learning, Higher Education, Instructional Design, Attitude, Achievement Introduction It has been suggested that statistics may be one of the most demanding and rigorous courses taken during a program of study, consequently evoking cognitive and emotional reactions that may inhibit a student’s level of performance (Zeidner, 1991). Previous research has also suggested that one aspect of a statistics course that induces anxiety is the use of statistical software (DeVaney, 2006). In a traditional setting in which a student attends a weekly lab, students can be guided through the use of software by an instructor or assistant.
