This document provides examples of well-designed blog homepages and discusses important considerations for blog design. It begins by explaining that an effective blog design needs to balance visual design with clear content presentation. It then shares multiple examples of popular blogs with different design approaches. Key aspects highlighted include consistent color schemes, balanced layouts, prominent display of headlines and thumbnails, and easy scrolling. The conclusion emphasizes that the most important goal of design is to reflect the blog's character and ensure readers can easily access content.
This document discusses improving foreign language teaching in schools and universities. It argues that foreign language education needs to move beyond just linguistic and instrumental focuses and instead promote cultural concepts that value plurality and diversity. Specifically, it calls for incorporating new literacies around visual, digital, multicultural, and critical literacy to better prepare students for a globalized society. Foreign language teaching should aim to develop students' cultural understanding and critical thinking skills.
This document introduces hybrid dynamic simulation (HDS) and IAL's Industrial Modeling Framework (IMF) for modeling and simulating combined discrete and continuous systems. HDS simultaneously solves problems over time, space, structure and phenomena. IMF uses IAL's Industrial Modeling Programming Language (IMPL) which can model hybrid systems using logical expressions to represent discrete changes and solve problems simultaneously over all time periods. IMPL includes specialized solvers for hybrid dynamic simulation problems.
DSL is the research & development organization that builds smart solutions for information personalization, search and filtration of social information, which connects math, information technologies, big data and digital humilities or digital sociology.
Applying bleeding edge technologies of data analysis and big data processing we are building solutions for the digital marketing of the next stage, RTB systems, social search and social scoring tools.
This document discusses working with families in a preschool classroom and making efforts to understand children's cultures and communicate effectively with parents. It notes that the classroom includes children from Cantonese, Mandarin, and English-speaking families and describes some cultural traditions like celebrating festivals. It outlines the teacher's efforts to learn about each child's family by remembering names, reviewing family trees, and asking children questions. The teacher also makes efforts to regularly communicate with parents by sharing photos and updates on activities and inviting parents to participate. To continue improving, the teacher plans to observe an experienced teacher interacting with parents and further their understanding of the families' cultures.
The document discusses the three measures of central tendency - mean, median, and mode - and explains that the mean is best for measuring temperatures, the median is best for distances to avoid outliers influencing the average, and the mode is best for categorical data or determining the most frequent value. It encourages understanding which measure of central tendency works best depending on the type of data being analyzed.
This document discusses angle resolved color measurements of prints and bulk scattering media. It finds that standard color measurement models like CIELAB do not capture angular variations in color. It presents a radiative transfer model called DORT2002 that can simulate angular light scattering. Measurements of white and blue dyed samples are shown to have color changes with viewing angle, while simulations with the DORT2002 model agree with these measurements. It questions whether the white point is independent of viewing angle during chromatic adaptation. The work is supported by Kempe foundations and the author can be contacted at ludovic.coppel@lgcresearch.se.
The document summarizes a presentation about next generation mathematical programming modeling and solving tools. It discusses how optimization problems can be modeled and solved, including through the use of modeling languages and commercial solvers. It provides examples of optimization models for problems in various domains like supply chain optimization, power generation scheduling, and maritime shipping. The presentation argues that new technologies that can automatically generate optimization models from process flowsheets will help solve optimization problems for engineers and business users more easily.
The document discusses the website www.or-em.com, describing it as an emergency management resource center that provides tools and information. The website contains emergency plans, training materials, and other resources to help organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies and disasters. It aims to be a one-stop shop for all emergency management needs.
Constructing the IMPL Flowsheet Using Dia with Python (IMPL-FlowsheetDiaPy)Alkis Vazacopoulos
?
Presented in this document is a short description on how to construct a flowsheet or superstructure using the open-source Dia as the drawing tool (similar to Microsoft Visio) and the open-source Python as the programming language to write out the construction data of the flowsheet into a UPS file.
The benefit of using a drawing package such as Dia is that it is a graphical or visual representation of the construction and connectivity data of the industrial optimization problem (IOP) with respect to its flow network, graph or diagram i.e., nodes and directed arcs. The alternative is to configure or populate the structures, shapes or objects in a spreadsheet or data file which can be problematic and difficult to interpret i.e., ¡°a picture is worth a thousand words¡±.
Presented in this short document is a description of what is called the (classic) ¡°Pooling Optimization Problem¡± and was first described in Haverly (1978) where he modeled a small distillate blending problem with three component materials (A, B, C), one pool for mixing or blending of only two components, two products (P1, P2) and one property (sulfur, S) as well as only one time-period. The GAMS file of this exact same problem is found in Appendix A which describes all of the sets, lists, parameters, variables and constraints required to represent this problem. Related types of NLP sub-models can also be found in Kelly and Zyngier (2015) where they formulate other sub-types of continuous-processes such as blenders, splitters, separators, reactors, fractionators and black-boxes for adhoc or custom sub-models.
This document discusses a traditional Indian musical instrument called the tabla. It mentions that the tabla is a pair of hand drums used in classical and popular music genres. The document also notes that tabla playing involves complex rhythmic techniques and is an integral part of Indian musical performances.
The document is discussing different daily activities. It mentions waking up, eating breakfast, going to school or work, eating lunch, drinking tea, eating dinner, watching TV and going to sleep.
