{"title":"Slides","authors":"J. Copeland, J. Haemer","doi":"10.1148/slides-class","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1148/slides-class","url":null,"abstract":"Slides L ast time, we talked about photographs, so this time we thought we’d discuss slides. Now that laptop computers are ubiquitous, people have defeated the idea of traveling light by choosing to cart around 25-pound projectors that connect to their 10-pound laptops to do presentations. The current tool of choice for generating presentations is Microsoft Corp.’s PowerPoint. If you like WYSIWYG word processing systems, and would rather use your mouse than your keyboard, PowerPoint might be the tool for you. But back when overhead projectors were predominantly used, people usually brought in black-and-white slides–viewgraphs–for presentations, assuming there would be a projector on-hand when they got there. The tool of choice for producing viewgraphs–for us, at least–was the -mv macro package for troff . Because we would rather edit the map than the territory, we almost always prefer to use troff or TeX for any text-processing exercise. (And because we’d rather carry a file folder of viewgraphs than 35 pounds of computer and projector, we still favor the old method.) Unfortunately, -mv required a fair amount of markup. Fortunately, Perl guru Tom Christiansen wrote an alternative called perlpoint , an obvious pun on PowerPoint. There are a number of other ways to attack the problem. As UNIX bigots, we’ve always favored any approach that uses a tools-and-pipes solution. Certainly, the -mv solution does that: we can build diagrams and tables into our slides using the troff preprocessors pic and tbl . The other end of the spectrum–the wrong approach, in our view–would be to take some text marked up for slides, have a huge markup language that allowed for tables, pictures and equations, and directly generate PostScript from that language. (In this world-view, the PowerPoint solution is perhaps a step worse because you don’t even get to edit the markup. But we realize that this is a religious battle in which we may be adherents of a shrinking cult.) The tools-and-pipes solution allows us some extra flexibility. We can make some decisions about the structure of the slides–a title, two levels of bullet items, some font changes and so on–and decide what the text markup for those will be. Given a fixed set of markup rules–for example, a title line is bracketed by <TITLE>...</TITLE> –we can then build a filter to translate each markup element into the appropriate troff directives. Even better, because the structure of troff allows us to encapsulate a series of directives into a macro, we can simplify our markup translator by pushing most of the troff work into a macro package. Later, if we wish to change the appearance of our slides, we can modify the macro package without having to change anything about the markup of the slide text or the filter. We can do this because what we’ve used to mark up the slides is structural information, not the procedure for generating each element. If you’ve followed our discussions of Perl’s pod–that is, “Plain Old Documen“","PeriodicalId":149366,"journal":{"name":"Bull. IEEE Tech. Comm. Digit.

The UK based Digital Curation Centre supports institutions who store, manage and preserve such data to help ensure its enhancement and continuing long-term use.\u0000 The DCC (Digital Curation Centre) Curation Lifecycle Model provides a generic graphical high-level overview of the stages required for successful curation and preservation of digital material from initial conceptualisation. The model can be used to plan curation and preservation activities, to ensure sustainability of repository content or other digital material, within an organisation or consortium. It will help to ensure that all necessary stages are undertaken, each in the correct sequence. The model enables granular functionality to be mapped against it to define roles and responsibilities, and build a framework of standards and technologies to implement. It can help with the process of identifying additional steps which may be required, or actions which are not required by certain situations or disciplines, and of ensuring that processes and policies are adequately documented.\u0000 Digital Curation Centre staff developed the model before undertaking a period of public consultation, which was recently completed. The newly ratified model will shortly be used by the DCC to ensure that information, services and advisory material cover all areas of the lifecycle. Domain-specific variations of the model will be developed, with greater levels of granularity, to help ensure that advice and information are easily accessible from the website. One planned utilisation is the development of domain specific standards frameworks within the DCC DIFFUSE Standards Frameworks, to help practitioners identify which standards they should be using and where they would be appropriately implemented.\u0000 This poster will present the DCC Curation Lifecycle Model, incorporating the results of the public consultation period held during December 2007 to February 2008.","PeriodicalId":149366,"journal":{"name":"Bull.
