Don't Forget Our Monthly Columns!

By Claudia Lynch, Benchmarks Online Editor

In addition to our feature articles, Benchmarks Online publishes monthly columns that are focused on specific aspects of computing here at UNT (and beyond, in some cases). Check out what is waiting for you this month:

  • RSS Matters - "RSS Matters" is the monthly column written by the Research and Statistical Support Group in Academic Computing Services. Their articles focus on topics of a statistical and/or research methods nature. This month, Rich Herrington gives you a "A Video Introduction to Creating Web Surveys with QSurvey - An Open Source Zope Application." 

This month Dr. Baczewski talks about "All the News that's Print to Fit." Read this article and find out the latest on "Really Simple Syndication."

  • Link of the Month - As it says on the top of the "Link of the Month" page, "each month we highlight an Internet, USENET Special Interest Group (SIG), or similar mailing list(s) or Website(s)." Lately we have been confining ourselves to featuring UNT specific sites. This month's feature is "Remote Library Research Assistance."

  • WWW@UNT.EDU - "WWW@UNT.EDU" is a monthly column written by the Central Web Support Group in Academic Computing Services. The topics usually focus, in some way, on World-Wide-Web-related issues. This month, Shannon Peevey continues a multi-part series on Apache 2.1. Part III is called  "Apache 2.1 Failings: mod_authnz_ldap and mod_authn_file."

  • Short Courses - Every semester, Academic Computing Services (ACS) offers short courses on computer-related topics, many of them having to do with statistical research. This column keeps you up-to-date on what is being offered and when as well as other training opportunities. The summer Short Course schedule is complete and courses are already underway. Courses remaining are: Introduction to SPSS Programming, Intermediate SPSS, New Technologies for Survey Research, Introduction to SAS Programming, Intermediate SAS, Introduction to Stata, Intermediate Stata, and Getting Started with DreamWeaver MX.      

  • IRC News - As their Webpage says, "the IRC is an advisory and oversight body created to foster communication and cooperation between and among UNT information resources providers and users." We publish the minutes of the IRC meetings each month, when they are available. The May 17, 2005 minutes are published this month.

  • Staff Activities - This column focuses on new employees, people who are no longer employed at the Computing and Information Technology Center, awards and recognitions and other items of interest featured here.
