title: Economic geology of the Waikato

authors: Kear, David

subjects: Waikato

abstract: The Waikato contributes between 20 and 25 per cent of New Zealand's mineral production.
Aggregate from Mesozoic rocks ranges from good (greywacke) to poor (argillite), with detailed differences being related to the position of the deposit within the New Zealand Geosyncline. Tertiary sediments show rapid facies changes that are reflected in the variability of important coal and limestone deposits. Petroleum and natural gas prospects are marginal at best. Upper Cenozoic deposits include sand, ironsand, pumice, perlite, aggregate, and building stone.
Ground water is of vital importance, and is warm or hot in some areas. Good clays are available.

title: Simulation with real world network stacks

authors: Jansen, Sam

subjects: computer science

abstract: Network simulation is used widely in network research to test new protocols, modifications to existing protocols and new ideas. The tool used in many cases is ns-2. The nature of the ns-2 protocols means that they are often based on theoretical models that might not behave in the same way as real networks. This paper presents the Network Simulation Cradle which allows real world network stacks to be used in a wrapper that allows the stacks protocols to be used in the ns-2 network simulator. The network stacks from the open source operating systems Linux, FreeBSD and OpenBSD are included in the simulation cradle as well as a stack designed for embedded systems, lwIP. Our results show that ns-2's TCP implementations do not match observed behaviour from real machines in some respects and using the Network Simulation Cradle produces results closer to real world network stacks.

title: Taku haumaru me te kurī - Te Reo Maori

authors: Carter, Jennifer

subjects: dog safety tips

abstract: This safety leaflet designed to target young children aged 5-6yrs will provide an age-appropriate understanding of how to avoid pet dog attacks which can injure, maim and even kill children.    This research-based educational resource provides practical, valid and reliable guidelines for safe interaction between children and pet dogs in their homes or known to them.  
The content of this leaflet has been drawn from ‘Stories with happy endings: Preventing pet dog attacks on children’, the 2007-2008 Summer Scholarship report prepared for the Child Accident Prevention Foundation of New Zealand (CAPFNZ).
