    RFID occupied advanced framework for specialized vehicle access, operating system, and wireless data transmission without human intervention

    No full text
    RFID tags are tiny electronic devices that include a distinctive code that can be detected by a reader that supports RFID. The string of characters is used for recognizing and monitoring the object to which the tag is connected. RFID tags interact with RFID readers using radio frequency. While the tag comes into close proximity to the scanner, that device sends a radio signal that triggers the tag. The tag then responds by sending its unique identity. RFID pinpointing ability is verified experimentally in two different techniques, one utilizing radar and the other a photosensitive transition. The initial phase is intended to test if the continuously changing location provided from RFID tags equals the precise position recorded by sonar. It is also excellent for getting into parking lots, private spaces, professional parking spots, and offices quickly and easily. The implementation of RFID will bring a revolutionary transformation in the authorization, administration, correspondence, computerization, and security systems for specialized vehicle Access, Operating System, and Wireless Data Transmission without Human Intervention using an internet based wireless communication system. RFID vehicular registration is an authentication system which employs RFID readers to give authorization for automobiles. The technique normally consists of installing a reader with RFID technology at the entrance/exit entrance to an enclosed or a limited region. RFID scanning can deliver efficient techniques for transportation administration, making the process straightforward, dependable, as well as secure

    Pandemic pedagogies: reflections on pedagogical approaches to art and design librarianship during a pandemic

    No full text
    The covid-19 pandemic instigated a rapid digital shift in UK higher education libraries, changing the way teaching was delivered. The digital shift of the pandemic meant library teaching was reimagined for online delivery, however pedagogical principles were challenged by new ways of working. How can a pedagogical approach for art and design librarianship adapt to online delivery when grounded in embodied, material and sensory experiences? Taking a reflective approach which brings together personal experience with discussion of selected literature, this article explores how pedagogical approaches to art and design librarianship have been continually reshaped by the pandemic

    Restoring the Balance: Wisdom and the Spirit of the Age

    No full text
    Facing multiple challenges, from coronavirus to climate degradation, we need to reexamine where we are now and ask how individuals, organisations and society can move forward to a better future. Based on a model designed to encourage relational aspects of health care practice, we argue that the complexity of contemporary issues requires a holistic approach incorporating three different angles: organisational culture, personal development and specific spiritual competencies. We explore how our culture is out of balance and suggest ways to build a better future

    Analysis of Trustworthiness in Machine Learning and Deep Learning

    Get PDF
    Trustworthy Machine Learning (TML) represents a set of mechanisms and explainable layers, which enrich the learning model in order to be clear, understood, thus trusted by users. A literature review has been conducted in this paper to provide a comprehensive analysis on TML perception. A quantitative study accompanied with qualitative observations have been discussed by categorizing machine learning algorithms and emphasising deep learning ones, the latter models have achieved very high performance as real-world function approximators (e.g., natural language and signal processing, robotics, etc.). However, to be fully adapted by humans, a level of transparency needs to be guaranteed which makes the task harder regarding recent techniques (e.g., fully connected layers in neural net-works, dynamic bias, parallelism, etc.). The paper covered both academics and practitioners works, some promising results have been covered, the goal is a high trade-off transparency/accuracy achievement towards a reliable learning approach

    Curiosity and an Entrepreneurial Mindset: Views from Fellows of the University

    Get PDF
    Generally, people will associate the term ‘entrepreneurship’ with starting a business. It is this, certainly, but really entrepreneurship covers a wide spectrum of activities – it is a way of behaving. This booklet discusses entrepreneurial behaviour – and the mindset that drives this – in terms of finding opportunities to create value for others, whilst (ideally) doing something a person enjoys and can do well. There is an implicit realisation that there will always be challenge, uncertainty and risk involved. The booklet draws upon interviews with successful people who all have an association with the University; and, because the underlying message is relevant for every student across the University, the booklet sets out to encourage and enable readers to reflect upon their own capabilities and ambitions

    Identifying student retention factors of a UK university using the concept of a learning community: a qualitative approach

    No full text
    The UK will need a skilled IT work force to maintain its position as a world leader in computing research and development. This study investigated the experience of learning communities amongst first year undergraduate computing students at a UK university. The concept of a learning community was used to examine its influence on student academic and social integration, the issues students need to overcome and the knowledge they need to acquire to become successful. A qualitative approach was employed using the ‘unfolding matrix’, which was completed during group interviews. The data analysis results revealed that learning communities critically affect students’ academic and social integration. Specifically, the importance of student support and guidance from academic staff was considered, as well as student relationships with other students and academic staff. Furthermore, developing a sense of personal awareness and the need to develop an effective academic skill-set to succeed were identified as critical

    Playful Learning for Information Literacy Development

    No full text
    Play is often seen as frivolous, childish, suitable only for young children. In contrast, this paper will discuss the idea that using playful learning approaches are often a good fit for the development of information literacy in all ages. To do this, it will outline the meaning of information literacy that the author takes, explain where playful learning is placed within learning theories and pedagogies, and show why and how they fit together. Examples of playful practice in library and information literacy training will be given to illustrate current practice, together with gaps within that practice. It will briefly address some of the barriers to using playful learning approaches in information literacy development, and offer some ways forward for information literacy practitioners
