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:
-
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, we have an encore presentation of the
article "How Long Should My Data Analysis Take?"
Check it out!
-
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 talks about "A
Bit of History." Can you believe it's been 50 years
since ARPANET was established? Click on the Network Connection
link above to find how UNT fits into Internet history, and
more.
-
Link
of the Month -
As it says on the top of the "Link of the Month" page, "Each
month we highlight an online mailing list or website.
Frequently the link is associated with UNT."
This month we show you how you can
follow the UNT One O'clock jazz band's invasion of European
festivals. 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.
For the first time in our history of offering Short
Courses, we were not able to have any this summer. Due to a
variety of reasons including the closing of the ISB 203
computer classroom, it became obvious that we weren't going
to be able to offer the classes. That said, special classes
can still be arranged with the RSS staff. Click on the Short Courses link above for more information.
-
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.
No minutes were
available for publication 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 are featured here.
