Subject: Cataloguing training materials

The Network Training Materials Project at the University of Newcastle upon
Tyne, England, seeks to develop a comprehensive training pack for network
(JANET) users in the UK academic community. This training pack is intended
for use in training workshops by user support staff, and will also include
material for users to work through at their own pace.

Initially, we are collecting and examining network training materials
already produced to get ideas, or possibly borrow or build on (with the OK
of the author), for our own training pack. As material comes to hand, it
will be included in a detailed listing of network training materials, which
will eventually be made widely available. (NET-TRAIN will be let know.)

The entry format for a catalogue of network training materials could take
many forms, and if there is a format already recognised as standard, I
would like ours to conform to that. But is there such a thing, does anybody
know? If you have any information or recommendations on this, I would
appreciate hearing from you. Please reply to me directly and I will forward
a summary of responses to the list.

Thank you.

     re>  Timetabling software

     I have had a couple of queries lately from people wanting to
     construct large and complex timetables (eg for whole a
department)
     about any possible software to help with the task.  Personal
     scheduling applications are not advanced enough to handle the
task.
     Does anyone have any ideas?  Of course, it would be better if it
was
     public domain or shareware ;-)

     Thanks in advance.

Subject:      Institution's courseware policies

Submitted to Edtech and Academic Software lists.

How does your institution handle the distribution of courseware developed by a
faculty member?  Does your institution have a policy or is it handled similar to
other intellectual works, i.e. a textbook?  Does the institution share in any
royalities from the sale of such software?  If so, what are the percentages?

Here at The University of Iowa it has been handled on an individual basis but
with the changing of personnel The University is looking at formalizing the
process and making a policy.  It would be very useful to find out what is
happening at other colleges and universities.  If you wold send your responses
to me personally, I will summarize them on the list.  That is if I get any
useful replies.

Thank you.

I post this to the list rather than directly to Mark because I think
many others may be interested in this book. Robert Horn has authored
a book relatively recently called: _Mapping Hypertext: Analysis,
Linkage, and Display of On-Line Text and Graphics_. I think it's must
reading for all involved in working in the "hyper area."

For Mark, I think Horn's notes and reference list will be a rich
resource for you as well.

Subject:      POSTING FOR EDTECH

KAREN,
 I would like to post the following in the EDTECH BB.

I am putting together some introductory information on INTERNET.
One goal is to get computer users thinking differently about the
computers on their desk. For instance, we are not just connected
to an electrical outlet but to many resources throughout the
world. For us visual learners, a visual representation is worth a
1000 words to help understand concepts.
What I am looking for is a visual that is both simple and
informational on INTERNET resources.

  I am currently conducting research into using hypertext in an educational
context.  I would appreciate any responses re: references or suggestions on
the following topics:

- other people conducting similar research

- search patterns in hypertext

- cluster analyses of semantic selection in hypertext

- translation of linear text into nonlinear format

- dynamic link creation

- naive/novice users v. expert users during domain search

- cognitive load on users during hypertext use, various formats.

Thanks...anyone wishing to discuss my research, feel free to contact me...I'm
always willing to talk...

The following problem occurs under QMF v2.4 with DB2 v220:-

User1 has just started his QMF session and he is at the blank add screen
of table editor for table T1. User2 runs a select query for table T1
at his terminal. Query fails with the following message:-

     The portion of the database you require is in use. SQL code -911.

I have following questions:

  a) This problem does n't occur under VM/SP., QMF v2.4 with SQL/DS v220.
     What is the difference ?
  b) Why table editor acquires x-lock right at the beginnig of ADD (blank
     add screen) ?
  c) QMF 3.1 allows the option of commit after each change to table, or
     to operate in same mode as QMF 2.4 (i.e. to hold database alterations
     until the seeion is completed.) Does QMF 3.1 solve above mentioned
     concurrency problem ?

I 'll appreciate your prompt reply in this regards. Thanks.

In response to the problem of selecting rows with maximum test
scores:  Assume you're using QMF, your present query is giving you
a set of test codes and maximum scores that go together.  You can
HOLD that data as "tempname", then

     SELECT *
       FROM table A,
            tempname B
      WHERE A.TEST_CODE = B.TEST_CODE
        AND A.SCORE = B.col1
Naturally you may get more than one row of data back, for each test.
If 10 students made the maximum score, you get 10 rows, etc.

Subject:      Looking for the CP RETRIEVE FORWARD mods

Hopefully someone knows where to find them. According to the
MEMO for TRACK, Dick Newson has made these mods, but I can't find them.
Anyone care to point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

Raf (CP mods? SES you!) Tordil

For all kinds of gatewaying software both IUCV and sockets are required.
But I suppose that none of the existing modules permit you to wait for
IUCV and TCPIP(VMCF) interrupts in parrallel, correct?

Would anyone of you masters of assemble be so kind to provide some way
to achieve that, even if it's just a patch of the type:

One of the two informs me that data for the other is pending so I can call
the other module to read the data. What I can't make use of, is if I
have to poll on both sides just to find out if something is happening.
That would turn into a sort of busy-waiting, which got my gateway
CP FORCE'd out, even though it's a project supported by the computer
center.   :(

I have given up for now, but I keep getting requests for the gateway
to return.

WE are running FOCUS 6.5 on a VM HPO 5.0 system. We are currently in the
process of changing our billing system to usage based. I am looking for
any information that would allow accounting records to be cut for the userids
requesting the work instead of the userid of the FOCUS sink machine. Right
now the FOCUS sink machine get billed for all the usage regardless of who
request it.
