Use and Regulation of the Radio Spectrum: Report on a Conference

This Article begins by briefly outlining the present mode of determining access to the radio spectrum. The second section reviews the attack upon this method by some of the academic economists, and states their proposal for establishing a market in transferable spectrum rights. The next two sections consider the problems presented by such a market system and a number of alternative proposals for revision of spectrum management practices. The impact on spectrum use of a number of recent technological developments is briefly reviewed in Section V. A few concluding observations are appended in Section VI

The CRC Report 2011: DALRO licensing agreements

After the release of the Copyright Review Commission Report a few days ago various articles have spoken of the recommendations made by the commission particularly the call to amend the Copyright Act to include provisions that take into account various technological advancements. I fully support this as I have shown elsewhere on this site the contrasts between the technological developments and legislative developments in copyright law in South Africa. On skimming over the paper, one aspect of the report which immediately stood out for me was the section on the DALRO (The Dramatic, Artistic and Literary Rights Organisation) licensing agreements with tertiary institutions, especially the assumptions made by DALRO as to the content of the rights publishers have over specific works

Digital and Technological Identities – In Whose Image?:A philosophical-theological approach to identity construction in social media and technology

New technological developments have fundamentally transformed human life. Throughout this process, fundamental questions about human beings have once again been posed. The paper examines how technological change affectsunderstandings of human beings and their bodies, thereby requiring new approaches to anthropology. First, Section 2 illustrates how the use of technology has changed the understanding of human beings and their bodies. A newconnection between the human being or the body and technology has emerged. Section 3 then moves onto considering the increasing blurring of the boundaries between organisms and machines, showing how the understanding of humans and bodies is constantly being renegotiated in relation to machines. Based on this,Section 4 explores how the understanding of the human being and the body can be redesigned in the context of modern technology. To this end, approaches for a contemporary anthropology can be derived from critical posthumanism. Section 5 addresses concrete practice and examines the construction of identity in social media platforms such as Instagram.The paper argues that technological processes and social media are places where theology is constructed and appeals for a responsible theological co-creation of these places. It advocates that technology offers the opportunity to question traditional anthropological concepts and to renegotiate understandings of the human being and the body

Sistem Pengarsipan Data Pegawai Menggunakan Metode Mixturemodelling Berbasis Web

Technological developments are increasing very fast along withcurrent development. It encourages every human being, especially tatabusiness as a provider of information to continuously follow developments and make decisions to improve,develop, and update any information presented to provide good service. The general section is part of the institution that is authorized to handle documents andfiling. In the General Section, verything related to archiving documents is archived and updated. The use of Microsoft Excel to handle documents in the General Section raises obstacles which include difficulties in searching for old data, formats in the documentation process that are still inconsistent, and difficulty knowing which documents will be processed. Therefore the researchers conducted this research aiming to produce an application that is able to manage document data so that managing document data is easier. From the research that the writer is doing, it will produce an application using the PHP programming language and SQL Server as the database, where the user of the application is the user. With this application, it can help users in the process of documenting, filing, and preparing document reports. The application can also be a solution in managing, storing, and archiving documents
