Digital libraries basics
Get PDFIn this session we will describe basic concepts related to digital libraries, showing a lot ofexamples of existing digital libraries. After this we will focus on things necessary to create adigital library, cost of such an undertaking and its maintenance in longer term. We will showpossible models of cooperation between libraries in order to make digital libraries moreaffordable. This part will be illustrated with examples of Polish digital libraries build byconsortiums of institutions
Building digital collections
Get PDFHow to choose objects for digitisation? Short description of NISO recommendations regardingcreation of digital collections in particular collection development policy. After describing this we will extend the topic of Intellectual Property Rights, showing how practically resolve problems related to publication of cultural objects (and its metadata) on the web. In this session we will also cover open licensing models i.e. Creative Commons
No full textPoznańIn this work we determined the mechanical properties (Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, and shear modulus) of 400 single-walled carbon nanotubes of radii from 2.1; ((0, 5) nanotube) to 17.3 Å ((0, 45) nanotube). All nanotubes were simulated with AIREBO forcefield. It turns out that zigzag nanotubes are mechanically more resistant than armchair nanotubes

Get PDFPoznańThe modeling of ion-transport through biological membranes is important for understanding many life processes. The transmembrane potential and ion concentrations in the stationary state can be measured in in-vivo experiments. They can also be simulated within membrane models. Here we consider a basic model of ion transport that describes the time evolution of ion concentrations and potentials through a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. To reduce the computation time I have developed an application for simulation of the ion-flows through a membrane starting from an ensemble of initial conditions, optimized for a Graphical Processing Unit (GPU). The application has been designed for the CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) technology. It is written in CUDA C programming language and runs on NVIDIA TESLA family of numerical accelerators. The calculation speed can be increased almost 1000 times compared with a sequential program running on the Central Processing Unit (CPU) of a typical PC
Usability testing and use monitoring
Get PDFSession will start with description of basic concepts behind SEO. We will then discuss why is itnecessary to promote objects in the web and how to do it. What tools might be useful here?Possible role of websites like Wikipedia?In this session we will show how to monitor usage of digital library resources. Second part willbe dedicated to assessment of digital library usability and accessibility
ACCESS IT courses feedback session
Get PDFIn this session we will discuss possible improvements to ACCESS IT courses. Finally we willdiscuss ideas for course promotion and certification
Fundamental Solution for the Plane Problem in Magnetothermoelastic Diffusion Media
No full textThe aim of the present paper is to study the fundamental solution in orthotropic magneto- thermoelastic diffusion media. With this objective, firstly the two-dimensional general solution in orthotropic magnetothermoelastic diffusion media is derived. On the basis of thegeneral solution, the fundamental solution for a steady point heat source in an infinite and a semi-infinite orthotropic magnetothermoelastic diffusion material is constructed by four newly introduced harmonic functions. The components of displacement, stress, temperature distribution and mass concentration are expressed in terms of elementary functions. From the present investigation, some special cases of interest are also deduced and compared with the previously obtained results. The resulting quantities are computed numerically for infinite and semi-infinite magnetothermoelastic material and presented graphically to depict the magnetic effect
