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:
-
By the Numbers - Not
really a column, but a new
feature, giving you a glimpse behind the scenes of the volumes
of data, spam, etc. processed, managed, and otherwise handled
here at UNT.
-
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 asks a question and
provides an answer in "Can Somebody Give Me
Some Help Here? R: A Short Guide For The Uninitiated"
-
The
Network Connection
- "The Network Connection" may well be the longest running
column in computer publishing history. Certainly in University
of North Texas computer
publishing history.
This month, Dr. Baczewski reflects on
the reality of "Internet Politics as Usual." Read all
about it!
-
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 focus is on "Denton Reads." Click on the link above and check it out.
-
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. Short Courses
are over for the semester. Other training
opportunities still exist. Check it out!
-
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 minutes
for February 20, 2007 and March 13, 2007 are available 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.
