A critical component of the learning process lies in the feedback that students receive on their work that validates their progress, identifies flaws in their thinking, and identifies skills that still need to be learned. Many higher-education institutions have developed an active pedagogy that gives students opportunities for different forms of assessment and feedback. This means that students have numerous lab exercises, assignments, and projects. Both instructors and students thus require effective tools to efficiently manage the submission, assessment, and individualized feedback of students’ work. The open-source web application MarkUs aims at meeting these needs: it facilitates the submission and assessment of students’ work. Students directly submit their work using MarkUs, rather than printing it, or sending it by email. The instructors or teaching assistants use MarkUs’s interface to view the students’ work, annotate it, and fill in a marking rubric. Students use the same interface to read the annotations and learn from the assessment. Managing the students’ submissions and the instructors assessments within a single online system, has led to several positive pedagogical outcomes: the number of late submissions has decreased, the assessment time has been drastically reduced, students can access their results and read the instructor’s feedback immediately after the grading process is completed. Using MarkUs has also significantly reduced the time that instructors spend collecting assignments, creating the marking schemes, passing them on to graders, handling special cases, and returning work to the students. In this paper, we introduce MarkUs’ features, and illustrate their benefits for higher education through our own teaching experiences and that of our colleagues. We also describe an important benefit of the fact that the tool itself is open-source. MarkUs has been developed entirely by students giving them a valuable learning opportunity as they work on a large software system that real users depend on. Virtuous circles indeed arise, with former users of MarkUs becoming developers and then supervisors of further development. We will conclude by drawing perspectives about forthcoming features and use, both technically and pedagogically.

Introduction. Udmurtia, its development within the framework of the first and the second five-year plans (1928–1932, 1933–1937). The focus is on the three enterprises of Valamaz, Sergievsk and Suginsk, as well as the construction of a new Golushurma factory. Materials and Methods. Analysis of archival materials reveals the state of the glass industry. Results. This industry (one of the oldest in the region) by the 1920’s occupied the leading positions in terms of industrial production. By the beginning of the First Five-Year Plan, the enterprises were in a deplorable state: the equipment and buildings were without repair and proper modernization, transport communication did not ensure stable sales of products. The circumstances were important for the further development of glass production: first, the availability of resources, primarily sand; secondly, the planned construction of the railway line. Five-year plans were to ensure the modernization of existing enterprises, but also to realize the task of building a new large factory, which had the largest volumes of production. Discussion and Conclusions. Despite the importance of glass production, in the 1930’s it ceases to be given due attention. Development plans wasn’t taken into account, the leadership of the region wasn’t invited to meetings on the discussion of core issues. At the same time, statistical data showed a reduction in production volumes, growth of manufacturing defect. Keywords: glass industry, factories, five-year plans, resources, transport, modernization, construction, Nizhny Novgorod Regional Executive Committee.

<p class="apa">In the recent years, the globalization and massification of video education offer involved more and more eLearning scenarios within universities. This article refers to interactive video and proposes an overview of it. We analyze the background information, regarding the eLearning campus used in virtual universities around the world, the MOOC movement in the last year, and the related interactive video platforms in the (education) field. At the same time, we pay particular attention to technical aspects of the interactive video: defining concept, types of video metadata, media fragments and types of annotations, as primordial elements that bring interactivity. We tested some free and commercial interactive web application. We gathered all the ideas. We propose a framework for an interactive system web based on the main modules: video resource management (production, transcoding and storage), annotations, Linked Open Data, distribution medium, player interface, data analytics and recommendation system. On the way, we offer our findings, together with our recommendations for an annotation interface and player module. It is our idea for Politehnica University Timisoara, either as a standalone solution or a complement to actual virtual campus (http://cv.upt.ro) depending on future development plans and financial aspects.</p>

Abstract OpenStreetMap (OSM) is a well-known crowdsourcing project which aims to create a geospatial database of the whole world. Intrinsic approaches based on the analysis of the history of data, i.e. its evolution over time, have become an established way to assess OSM quality. After a comprehensive review of scientific as well as software applications focused on the visualization, analysis and processing of OSM history, the paper presents “Is OSM up-to-date?”, an open source web application addressing the need of OSM contributors, community leaders and researchers to quickly assess OSM intrinsic quality based on the object history for any specific region. The software, mainly written in Python, can be also run in the command line or inside a Docker container. The technical architecture, sample applications and future developments of the software are also presented in the paper.

This paper aims to discuss 30 years of evolution of technical design tools (software and architecture) in GE Oil&Gas. Most important changes are highlighted, as well as some promising evolutionary paths. Legacy codes are the heritage of industrial companies from 70s and 80s. FORTRAN was used in order to automate the calculation the engineers had to perform to design turbines or compressors. The results of legacy codes were files that contain several information’s, relevant to stage geometry and performances, which could be used to generate drawings or to evaluate machines operability. However this large amount of data was spread on different computer and each designer was keeping track manually of the files modification. In order to better archive those data in 2000 most of the companies started to use databases and created modern user interfaces: in this way the users can dialog with a friendly interface and retrieve the data in a more organized format. The discussion on how to link the legacy codes and the database is still on going. Some GUIs are installed on different computer and interact on a centralized database, but in 2010 a more robust architecture started to be used transforming the GUI and the calculation in a centralized system based on web application. This allowed creating a solid and scalable environment since the legacy code and DB can be installed in servers reachable through the net by each user, simplifying the installation and maintenance issue. With INDUSTRIAL INTERNET advent more interaction between tools is required and Application Programming Interfaces (API) permit to have a direct interaction among tools without human interface, and the applications can directly interact with other programs.

AbstractThe Catcher area fields – Catcher, Varadero and Burgman – were discovered in the Central North Sea between 2010 and 2011. The three fields are found in Block 28/9a. Oil is produced from Eocene sandstones stratigraphically equivalent to the Cromarty and Tay Sandstone members of the Sele and Horda formations, respectively. The reservoir for the Catcher area fields was formed by the large-scale injection of sand from the Eocene Cromarty turbidite system into shallower Sele and Horda Formation mudstones to form the Greater Catcher area injectite complex. The Catcher area development is a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) based development, with 18 production and injection wells drilled from two drilling templates per field, tied back to the centrally located BW Offshore Catcher FPSO. A further development well will be drilled in 2020 to complete the base development. A phased approach to development drilling, with focused data acquisition, allowed the well layout and count to be optimized as the fields were being developed. Excellent well results have meant that the well count has been reduced relative to the development plans at sanction while delivering an increase in predicted reserves. Further infill wells and satellite field development drilling is planned for the future.

Although distributional inequality and concentration are important statistical concepts in many research fields (including economics, political and social science, information theory, and biology and ecology), they rarely are considered in psychological science. This practical primer familiarizes with the concepts of statistical inequality and concentration and presents an overview of more than a dozen useful, popular measures of inequality (including the Gini, Hoover, Rosenbluth, Herfindahl-Hirschman, Simpson, Shannon, generalized entropy, and Atkinson indices, and tail ratios). Additionally, an interactive web application (R Shiny) for calculating and visualizing these measures, with downloadable output, is described. This companion Shiny app provides brief introductory vignettes to this suite of measures, along with easy-to-understand user guidance. The Shiny app can readily be used as an intuitively accessible, interactive learning and demonstration environment for teaching and exploring these methods. We provide various examples for the application of measures of inequality and concentration in psychological science and discuss venues for further development.

Thirty one years after its discovery in Queensland's remote Adavale Basin, the Gilmore Field has been put into commercial production, supplying fuel gas to Australia's first independent power plant wholly dedicated to feed a state electricity grid.Gilmore Field is located in PL-65 in Central Queensland. It is a deep, high pressure gasfield which produces dry gas. The gas is primarily methane with up to 21 per cent nitrogen. Three of the five wells in the field currently produce into gas gathering and processing facilities. Gas is piped 240 km to Barcaldine to fuel a Frame-6 gas turbine, generating 37 MW in a peak loading power-station, which operates 14 hours per day, 5 days per week. Further development in Gilmore Field is planned.Numerous development plans have been proposed for Gilmore Field, since its discovery in 1964, but none were successful due to uncertainties on reserves and remoteness. The recent relaxation of state control on utilities and an increase in local demand for electricity created a niche for development of the field.Energy Equity Corporation Ltd (EEC) was responsible for the entire development project which consists of gas gathering and field facilities, a 240 km gas pipeline, power plant and the electricity supply contract. This allowed various aspects of the project to be interactively designed to suit the field's capacity and was an important part of the successful development.As part of the development, the geology was re-evaluated and the field was extensively tested. This resulted in a clearer understanding of the reservoir parameters and a revision of the Devonian stratigraphy of the Adavale Basin. The main producing horizon is the Lissoy Sandstone, a transgressive marine sequence deposited as a strandline over alluvial sandstones of the Log Creek Formation. Reservoir quality is controlled by facies and diagenesis. The productive reservoir consists of near-shore sandstone facies which have developed inter-granular porosity through dissolution of early marine cements. Other facies of the Lissoy Sandstone and the Log Creek Formation are host to low deliverability reserves.
