Mobilong Independent Living Units: New Innovations in Australian Prison Architecture

In 2004, when the Department for Correctional Services recognized the need to expand the Mobilong prison facility, it decided to undertake radical and innovative changes to set a new standard for correctional facilities. The resulting correctional facility development contains 10 duplex housing units that have 5 bedrooms arranged around a common living space that includes a kitchen, bathroom, and securable veranda area. Five inmates live in each duplex to allow for group voting processes. Inmates living in the duplexes assume responsibility for meal preparation, ordering supplies, laundry, and cleaning. The development uses efficient sustainable environmental development solutions and passive environmental principles, such as vertical windows to allow for a connection to the external environment and solar hot water systems. The buildings, which are oriented along the east-west axis for solar radiation, are arranged around a court area that has a garden and public telephones. The facility meets the safe cell design recommendations of the Victorian Building Design Review Project and includes touches such as recessed lighting, sloped knobs and water taps, and rounded edges. Safety features include the use of steel sheeting and steel-reinforced concrete block work and vertical windows with openings of approximately 5 inches to preclude a window escape. The duplex design of the Mobilong Prison represents a new alternative to the traditional cell block facilities and demonstrates the capacity to create humane and secure correctional environments.

Creating a Comprehensive Review of the Literature

Research normally begins by doing a “review of the literature” to see what has already been written and to determine “gaps” in the literature for further research. This handout reviews ways to search for books, scholarly articles, dissertations, and grey literature on any topic using our library subscription resources

Ten Simple Rules for Searching and Organizing the Scientific Literature

The exponentially increasing number of published papers (1.4 million per year by one estimate) makes it more and more difficult for us to manage the flood of scientific information. Each of us has acquired some protocol to find and organize journal articles and other references over the course of our careers. Most of those protocols are likely to have been formed by old routines or idleness rather than a structured approach to save time and frustration over the long run. Furthermore, with the Web 2.0 revolution, new ways of handling information are emerging (O’Reilly 2005). For example, traditional standalone tools for reference management like EndNote are being supplemented by centralized resources like RefWorks and social bookmarking sites as described subsequently. This fusion of personal and public information offers the promise of efficiency through better organization, which in turn leads to better science.

How can seasoned scientists do better using these tools and those newer to the field start off in the right way? To start to answer that question, I present ten simple rules to master the search and organization of new literature. This is not meant to be comprehensive. It represents the experiences of a few and I welcome your thoughts, through comments to this article, on what you do to keep your references organized.

Tools for managing references in class projects and scientific works

[EN] This paper presents a set of tools to manage references, for its application in class projects, in the university context, and in scientific works. The main aim of this paper is to provide a set of tools to support university students and researchers to store all their research, and sort all their references, documents and notes in one place. This paper is an extension of the paper Adjustment of students to be future researchers: The importance of a systematic literature review methodology for MSC students [1] that proposes a guideline to help students to systematically perform the literature review phase in the research work. The work developed in the present paper, focuses on collecting, managing and treating the results through building a personalised database, proposing in a more extended way a set of tools to manage references of the research work performed in the systematic literature review.The research leading to these results has received funding from European Community's H2020 Programme (H2020/2014-2020) under grant agreement no 636909, "Cloud Collaborative Manufacturing Networks (C2NET)".Andres, B.; Poler, R.; Díaz-Madroñero Boluda, FM.
