Increasing access
-
Since the mid-1990s, local and state education agencies increasingly have emphasized the need to hold students, educators, and schools accountable for meeting high academic standards. With the passage of the No Child Left Behind Act in 2001, the need for accountability was confirmed again in federal law, as was the federal government’s commitment to ensuring equitable access to essential learning opportunities. Historically, the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) of the U.S.

Database systems are a key component behind many of today’s computer systems. As a consequence, it is crucial that database systems provide correct and contin- uous service despite unpredictable circumstances, such as software bugs or attacks. This paper presents the de- sign of Byzantium, a Byzantine fault-tolerant database replication middleware that provides snapshot isolation (SI) semantics. SI is very popular because it allows in- creased concurrency when compared to serializability, while providing similar behavior for typical workloads.

Spoken word collections promise access to unique and compelling content, and most of the technology needed to realize that promise is now in place. Decreasing storage costs, increasing network capacity, and the availability of software to encode and exchange digital audio make possible physical access to spoken word collections at a previously unimaginable scale. Effective support for intellectual access — the problem of finding what you are looking for — is much more challenging, however. ...

The growth in the use of mobile networks has come mainly with the third generation systems and voice traffic. Withthe current third generation and the arrival of the 4G, the number of mobile users in the world will exceed the number of landlines users. Audio and video streaming have had a significant increase, parallel to the requirements of bandwidth and quality of service demanded by those applications. Mobile networks require that the applications and protocols that have worked successfully in fixed networks can be used with the same level of quality in mobile scenarios.

The theory and practice of molecular ecology draw on a number of subjects, particularly genetics, ecology and evolutionary biology. Although the foundations of molecular ecology are not particularly new, it did not emerge until the 1980s as the discipline that we now recognize. Since that time the growth of molecular ecology has been explosive, in part because molecular data are becoming increasingly accessible and also because it is, by its very nature, a collaborative discipline.
