The Silent generation (pre World War II), the Baby Boom generation (1946-1962), Generation X (1963-1977), and Generation Y (1978-1986), all have different workplace values and needs. This can create a challenge for the manager who works with a generational mix of team members. Today's younger employees have different values and needs than those of their more \"traditional\" colleagues of the Silent and Baby Boom generations. For example, Generation X and Y employees saw their Baby Boom parents work so much that often family was neglected and, for all of the overtime hours of work, see their parents still struggle with retirement decisions and finances. These were the \"latch-key\" children and so younger generations want a balance between work and a personal life. They will not give up all of their personal time for the benefit of their employer like their parents. When you examine the various characteristics of each generation and understand their life experiences, you can see what has shaped their roles in today's workplace. Each generation's values are different and understanding these differences, while identifying misconceptions, can lead you to successfully managing this diverse group.","PeriodicalId":277737,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 35th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference","volume":"6 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120861805","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}

In this work we propose and discuss a user-friendly, multi-modal guide system for pervasive context-aware service provision within augmented environments. The proposed system is adaptable to the user needs of mobility within a given environment; it is usable on different mobile devices and in particular on PDAs, which are used as advanced adaptive HEI (human-environment interaction) interfaces. An information retrieval service is provided that is easily accessible through spoken language interaction in cooperation with an auto-localization service. The interaction is enabled by speech recognition and synthesis technologies, and by a ChatBot system, endowed with common sense reasoning capabilities to properly interpret user speech and provide him with the requested information. This interaction mode turns to be more natural, and users are required to have only basic skills on the use of PDAs. The auto-localization service relies on a RFID-based framework, which resides partly in the mobile side of the entire system (PDAs), and partly in the environment side. In particular, RFID technology allows the system to provide users with context-related information. An implemented case study is showed that illustrates service provision in an augmented environment within university campus settings (termed \"Augmented Campus\"). Lastly, a discussion about user experiences while using trial services within the Augmented Campus is given.","PeriodicalId":277737,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 35th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125437050","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}

It is not easy for us to find such interpolated files because of the numbers and volumes of files are great in computer systems. We need a good tool such as \"Tripwire\" for that purpose. However, such a system is only for system administrators and not for users. It is also difficult for administrators to set up the configuration file to do the suitable file check. We implemented the file interpolation detection system for both administrators and users. The system detects insertion, deletion, and modification (interpolation) of files. Both administrators and users can check the files concerned to themselves and get the result. Users can update the file specification information in the database by command, then it makes the system possible to avoid finding of the error interpolation. The system can be periodically executed by CRON or on demand by users, and then compares the value of MD5 for each file to detect file interpolation. The system has the command line interface and Web interface. The system first creates the database that contains full path file name, last update time, and values of MD5 according to the information set-upped by users that specifies the location to check for each user. It judges the insertion and deletion of files by the existence and no existence of records in the database. It also judges the file interpolation by the comparison with the value of MD5 for every file. It reports the result by e-mail, in command line interface, or in Web interface.","PeriodicalId":277737,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 35th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116893132","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}

University of Calgary Information Technologies Lab Services (IT Lab Services) has endeavored to streamline this process by developing an in-house system. This system addresses the issues of collecting inventory information, loading an image on to a PC, and configuring the PC after imaging. A custom version of the Windows Preinstallation Environment by Bart Lagerweij (BartPE) is used to bootstrap the system. BartPE can be loaded from a CD or DVD on older systems and from select USB keys on newer generations. Within the bootstrap, custom scripts are executed to record inventory information, network speed, as well as starting the Ghost process. Upon image deployment completion, the automated configuration process begins at the first reboot. A custom script which we term Declone names the PC from our inventory information and joins the domain. Other scripts configure the task scheduler and other post-imaging tasks. The post-imaging process is mostly standalone, only requiring network access to join the domain. It has also been modified for the use of pGina by XPA Systems, our LDAP based authentication system. Another set of scripts are executed to verify proper naming of the newly imaged PC. The naming component is extremely important as many services depend on having the correct computer name. This in-house imaging system has greatly improved the efficiency of our imaging process and has stood the test of time. We currently use it with Windows 2000 and XP Professional.","PeriodicalId":277737,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 35th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference","volume":"164 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127905425","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}

Ringling College of Art and Design is at the forefront of addressing challenges inherent to multimedia applications. In spite of using state of the art storage systems, we realize the need to raise our storage systems to a new level. This new level is based on the facts that the more data is managed centrally, the more economically and highly leveraged it becomes. Moreover, storage consolidation drives other consolidation such as servers and backup systems. To raise our storage to the next level, we have developed and deployed an innovative three tiered storage framework and an enterprise backup system. Our framework takes advantage of our observation that active user data clusters are considerably smaller than the total user data clusters. Our three tiered storage system consists of the highest performance storage; good performance storage; and the highest capacity, lowest cost per unit storage seamlessly integrated to function as one system. From the user's perspective, this system appears to use traditional file system structure and operations. In this report, we will present our framework, implementation details, issues and challenges, lessons learned, and the results we achieved.","PeriodicalId":277737,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 35th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125724449","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}

In addition, the issue of power and cooling is a mounting anxiety. These concerns would not seem so important if there were only a few computers in our campuses, but today there are millions of computers in use at the data centers, offices, and computer laboratories across campuses. To put this in perspective: a typical desktop computer can consume 200-300W of power. This results in emission of about 220Kg of CO2/annum. By using more efficient systems, the level of CO2 produced by a typical desktop computer could be reduced by 75%. Moreover, a computer laboratory with 50 computers can generate about 10KW of heat requiring extra cooling. Rapid growth in energy costs and increasing dependency on sustainable computing increasingly require 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) endeavors in our information technology operations and management of our information technology resources. From the viewpoints of environmental preservation and resource utilization, managing e-waste and eco-computing is becoming an important target for higher education institutions worldwide. Furthermore, tackling eco-friendly solutions on campus environments takes a group effort and starts at the Information Technology division. In this report we review major eco-responsible initiatives and detail moves towards more efficient and sustainable technologies. In addition, we look at ways to assess the environmental impact of our data centers and eco-friendly solutions.","PeriodicalId":277737,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 35th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133476590","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}

The help desk staff had been using purchased software for several years and had learned to live with the quirkiness of some of the modules, the costly maintenance fees, and more importantly, the resistance from other groups within IT about using it. Open source became our mantra for the cost-saving benefits, but we had to embrace the same programming conventions (Java, PHP, and Perl) and database infrastructure (SQL) we used for other systems. The wish list included finding a solution that would allow future API integration with a knowledge base and self-service module. We also knew it had to have a web-base interface, a relatively sophisticated search function, automated email notification system, and provide a queue-oriented navigation schema. Lastly, the software implementation had to coincide with the rollout of a new Content Management System scheduled for mid-January of 2007. This gave our team less than six months to research and recommend software options for testing, make a decision based on the criteria from our 'feature wish list', and have the software available for use by January. This presentation will provide insights into the realm of support for open source, the surprising collaboration between internal and external constituencies during the research and implementation process, and how this experience has affected our support initiatives.","PeriodicalId":277737,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 35th annual ACM SIGUCCS fall conference","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132763850","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}
