Copyleft vs. Copyright

http://copyleftvscopyright.pbwiki.com

Copyleft vs. Copyright This learning project will explore the origins of copyright, its benefits and its transformation towards copyleft as the result of a new Internet philosophy. During the coming weeks, this learning space will be amended, improved and enlarged, not only by me but hopefully by a growing community of "netgeners". For those who want to get into the topic already now, have a look at www.lexelerator.eu, a free information platform for legal issues in e-business. Copyright and copyleft are explained in the legal Wiki. ________ Chats Chats will take place using the NetGeners.Net chat function at http://www.netgeners.net/index.php?option=com_blastchatc&Itemid=35 Dates for next chats and past discussions can be found at: http://www.netgeners.net/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=28&topic=22.0

Different ways to disseminate information

http://dwtdi.wikidot.com/

This learning course is a study on different ways to disseminate any kind of digital information, technical or not. By the end of the course, readers and participants should be able to choose the appropriate platform, depending on their project needs (for example the type of documentation needed and the project orientation). We will demonstrate how different tools can be used in different scopes; for instance, a SCM system is more suitable for a community project with many developers whereas a learning platform is a better choice for a university course. The goal of our study is to set, discuss and compare different aspects of information distribution and management. __________ Chats will take place on freenode (IRC). Dates for next chats and past discussions can be found at:  http://www.netgeners.net/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=28&topic=24.0 Instructions for joining the meeting on freenode: 1) Install an IRC client if you don't have one installed alrea ...

BlueWriter - Java Word Processor

https://sourceforge.net/projects/bluewriter/

BlueWriter - Java Word Processor BlueWriter is a lightweight (Less than 3mb) fully functional word processing application built completely in java. Main outputs are RTF and TXT. Soon to come is BlueOffice, the rest of the BlueWtier suite. Blue Writer.   My Testing of F/OSS Experience!       In this report I would like to present the problems I encountered while Testing of F/OSS and the ways I used to overcome them. The first problem, which while going unnoticed might be the most substancial one, is the prejudice from the side of us students towards this assignment of Software Engineering. Most of us, including me before I started this assignment, think of it as too hard and too time consuming to complete. The reason could be that we have not faced anything similar to this assignment during our previous years as students. Despite that I honestly think of it as one of the best assignments of our department. In addition, it is easy and serves as motive for us to work further with F/OSS ...

Ética, tecnología y libre elección: abordando dilemas en red

http://wiki.netgeners.net/index.php?title=%C3%89tica%2C_tecn...

Este proyecto de aprendizaje se propone como una discusión abierta, más que como un manual concluido de enseñanzas. La potencialidad del desarrollo de la llamada web 2.0 nos permite aquello que nunca podremos encontrar en libros de papel: la continua y múltiple discusión y modificación de contenidos. Creemos que la mejor forma de defender una idea es realizarla. Planteamos así el proyecto de aprendizaje, como una forma más de demostrar que esta idea es no sólo realizable sino también efectiva, eficaz y justa. Los objetivos de esta propuesta buscan: - clarificar algunos conceptos básicos relativos a lo que se ha dado en llamar web 2.0, o web social; - poner de relieve aspectos conflictivos del desarrollo del entorno web en relación a la libertad de elección y a la protección de información personal; - estimular la reflexión sobre las relaciones entre tecnología y justicia social; Con el objetivo de organizar el contenido del proyecto, el curso se ...

Web Services

http://wiki.netgeners.net/index.php?title=Web_Services

  Introduction   During my undergraduate thesis I study one issue that is highly appraised    nowadays, the web services and the java APIS that can implement them. The web services, are, like their name implies, services implemented using web technologies .Web services are for example simple currency transformation, weather forecast,retrieving a stock quote, finding the best price for a particular product on the net, saving a new meeting to a calendar, translating a passage of text to another language, or validating a credit card number.   The main purpose of this document is not only to serve as an introduction to web services by itself, but to also  share information and sources of information with all netgeeners participants, in order to build a comprehensive and well-digested introductory documentation concerning Web Services. Towards this goal, I would appreciate any remarks, comments, fixes and additions from the netgeners comm ...

Online support forums - how to find and use them?

http://wiki.netgeners.net/index.php?title=Forums_%E2%80%93_a...

Online support forums - how to find and use them? 1. Project Introduction This learning project will focus on the role of (web) forums and what's in it for learning purposes. Beside the fact that forums enable us to pose questions to others and to discuss with them, they can also be a valuable content source. They inherit the questions, discussion and problems posed by others and often also the answers to them. Therefore they might even show us the process towards reaching a particular answer, or solving a particular problem. So why is it important to know about those facts? Well, firstly if something has been already explained or answered I don't need to ask the same questions again, but instead could use what others did. Secondly, by re-using what others did I save time - time that could be used better. Thirdly, by knowing how to look for this information and where to find it I would need to rely less on personal support (e.g. having someone that will answer my questions, etc.) This learning project ...

Armadillo

http://arma.sourceforge.net/

Armadillo Armadillo   C++ linear algebra library   Armadillo is a C++ linear algebra library (matrix maths) aiming towards a good balance between speed and ease of use. Integer, floating point and complex numbers are supported, as well as a subset of trigonometric and statistics functions. Various matrix decompositions are provided through optional integration with LAPACK and ATLAS libraries. A delayed evaluation approach is employed (during compile time) to combine several operations into one and reduce (or eliminate) the need for temporaries. This is accomplished through recursive templates and template meta-programming. This library is useful if C++ has been decided as the language of choice (due to speed and/or integration capabilities), rather than another language like Matlab ® or Octave. It is distributed under a license that is useful in both open-source and commercial contexts. Armadillo is pr ...
