Pedagogically informed metadata content and structure for learning and teaching
In order to be able to search, compare, gap analyse, recommend, and visualise learning objects, learning resources, or teaching assets, the metadata structure and content must be able to support pedagogically informed reasoning, inference, and machine processing over the knowledge representations. In this paper, we present the difficulties with current metadata standards in education: Dublin Core educational version and IEEELOM, using examples drawn from the areas of e-learning, institutional admissions, and learners seeking courses. The paper suggests expanded metadata components based on an e-learning system engineering model to support pedagogically informed interoperability. We illustrate some examples of the metadata relevant to competency in the nurse training domain
Optimal client recommendation for market makers in illiquid financial products
The process of liquidity provision in financial markets can result in
prolonged exposure to illiquid instruments for market makers. In this case,
where a proprietary position is not desired, pro-actively targeting the right
client who is likely to be interested can be an effective means to offset this
position, rather than relying on commensurate interest arising through natural
demand. In this paper, we consider the inference of a client profile for the
purpose of corporate bond recommendation, based on typical recorded information
available to the market maker. Given a historical record of corporate bond
transactions and bond meta-data, we use a topic-modelling analogy to develop a
probabilistic technique for compiling a curated list of client recommendations
for a particular bond that needs to be traded, ranked by probability of
interest. We show that a model based on Latent Dirichlet Allocation offers
promising performance to deliver relevant recommendations for sales traders.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figures, 1 tabl
Object-oriented modelling with unified modelling language 2.0 for simple software application based on agile methodology
Unified modelling language (UML) 2.0 introduced in 2002 has been developing
and influencing object-oriented software engineering and has become a standard
and reference for information system analysis and design modelling. There are
many concepts and theories to model the information system or software
application with UML 2.0, which can make ambiguities and inconsistencies for a
novice to learn to how to model the system with UML especially with UML 2.0.
This article will discuss how to model the simple software application by using
some of the diagrams of UML 2.0 and not by using the whole diagrams as
suggested by agile methodology. Agile methodology is considered as convenient
for novices because it can deliver the information technology environment to
the end-user quickly and adaptively with minimal documentation. It also has the
ability to deliver best performance software application according to the
customer's needs. Agile methodology will make simple model with simple
documentation, simple team and simple tools.Comment: 15 pages, 30 figure
DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTEGRATED ACCOUNTING SYSTEM BY RESOURCE-EVENT-AGENT APPROACH (A CASE STUDY AT KOPERASI PEGAWAI DANA PENSIUN TELKOM)
Koperasi Pegawai Dana Pensiun Telkom is a cooperative organization that is established by PT. Dana Pensiun Telkom. As a common business entity, financial report is required to give information to the shareholders or decision maker about organization’s financial state. Decision maker in this case is the board of directors. Based on this financial report, board of directors may decide the organization’s strategies.
Financial report which has an important role in decision making process has a problem on its publishing time. This delayed financial report’s publishing time makes decision making process become hampered. This problem is caused by three factors, such as disintegrated data and application, and transaction journalizing process which is still using manual method.
Resource-Event-Agent approach’s role on this research is to facilitate the modelling data process so that the data and application integration become more effective. The modelled data using Resource-Event-Agent can fulfil organization business process requirements especially for automating the transaction journalizing process.
By using Resource-Event-Agent, the system that can be a solution is Integrated Accounting System. This system will integrate data, application, and automating the transaction journalizing process. On the future, Resource-Event-Agent can be used to model every data on every business activities on the organizatio
