Through an intense project-management effort involving stakeholders over the summer months, the space received a mutually-agreed upon purpose, and co-developed documentation, training, and communication strategies. As a result, the use of the space increased tenfold from the previous 3 years of operation and led to multiple new connections across campus with users of and researchers in virtual reality. This project demonstrates an effective method of re-envisioning the purpose of a space by engaging multiple stakeholders to gain a shared vision.

This operation was realized by Bot Computing, a framework for Internet of Things (IoT). Bot computing enables remote control of edge devices which are protected by NAT routers, from the Internet. Any electric appliance can be controlled using the combination of Bot Computing and an edge device with an Infra-Red (IR) transmitter, if the appliance has the IR remote controlled function. We can program the power-on time and the power-off time of any electric appliance, by writing a script on a Wiki page on the Internet, using the Bot Computing. We can change the program anytime, anywhere. We also can force turn on or force turn off the appliance anytime, anywhere. We have used this to realize a large digital signage system by using windows of a building at our university. The signage system displays university information at night. We could have planned operation of video projectors in a building. We could also have forced turn on video projectors and changed the plan of operation from the outside of the building, which is locked at night.","PeriodicalId":240233,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2021 ACM SIGUCCS Annual Conference","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127244336","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If there are no symptom of COVID-19 for two weeks, there is almost no possibility of infection of COVID-19 or the person had recovered from the infection. The survey data is collected and analyzed with Office 365 to minimize time and effort. In addition to the survey, we made the class seat assignment sheets using our academic affair system and Excel.

The Information Technology Group at Oregon Health & Science University was no exception, as we took action on oppressive, discriminatory, and exclusionary terminologies which we encountered in IT.

Neither campus technology infrastructure nor the bulk of instructors were prepared for this extremely rapid change in teaching models. In response to the impacts on campus operations in the Spring 2020 semester, and subsequent plans to begin the Fall 2020 semester by teaching in a mixed environment, the Office of Information Technology (OIT) developed 23 rapid-response projects and collaborative activities. This presentation highlights those projects relating to personal computing software and hardware resources for instructors. This includes developing new software delivery strategies, adapting software licensing to fit rapidly evolving instructional needs, and providing computers and peripherals to instructors outside the normal range of provisioning. All these were done in response to COVID-19 impacts on campus operations and the subsequent plan to begin the Fall 2020 semester by teaching in a mix of traditional on-premise, newly remote, and highly-flexible environments.","PeriodicalId":240233,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2021 ACM SIGUCCS Annual Conference","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123208982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Design and Implementation of the Cisco Webex System Based on Self-service Sign-up Using G Suite for Rapid Deployment","authors":"Kazuhiro Mishima, Takahiro Nemoto, Yoichi Hagiwara, T. Tsujisawa","doi":"10.1145/3419944.3441168","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3419944.3441168","url":null,"abstract":"Following the spread of the new coronavirus (COVID-19), there is a growing requirement for online class at universities and other educational institutions. Information Media Center (IMC) at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT), provides Google G Suite for Education, which can be used by all faculty members and students of our university. G Suite provides a service called Google Meet, which can be used for remote meetings. However, since Meet is somewhat inferior in terms of functionality as a web conferencing system, it is expected to have some barriers for the smooth class management by faculty members. Therefore, IMC considered that Cisco Webex Training could be a choice for effective online class use. First of all we discuss the functionality of Cisco Webex Training in this paper. A product version of some web conferencing systems such as Webex can be easily implemented for a large-scale environment by working together with a university’s integrated authentication system. However, in order to do this, it is necessary to renovate the existing authentication system. It also coincides with the end of the fiscal year in Japan’s budget period. In this situation, online classes are also an important issue that needs to be implemented quickly for COVID-19 measures. From these situations, renovations and cost incurrence for coordination should be kept to a minimum. Therefore, IMC starts preparations for a small-start implementation of the system. First, we built a system that allows users to open an account for the Webex system by signing up, and then users can start the service by self-service when they need it. This system consists of a combination of the Webex system and the various services included in G Suite, and is ready for use when both services are available. In this paper, we also provide a brief description of the process of building the system and the details of the system. By proposing an introduction method that is different from the linking the authentication system normally used to deploy the Webex system, we can propose a new use case for the university community.","PeriodicalId":240233,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2021 ACM SIGUCCS Annual Conference","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134401509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
