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.
