Investigating Visual Alerting In Complex Command And Control Environments, Jacquelyn M. Crebolder
Investigating Visual Alerting In Complex Command And Control Environments, Jacquelyn M. Crebolder
Journal of Human Performance in Extreme Environments
A series of experiments was conducted to investigate visual alerting in complex command and control environments, where operators must use several displays to perform tasks. In the first experiment, the speed of detection of two alerts, one in the form of a short bar and the other a border surrounding the perimeter of the display, were compared under flashing and static states. Findings showed that bar alerts were detected faster than border alerts and that adding a flashing attribute did not provide a benefit. The second study monitored which display participants were attending to when the alert appeared, and the …
Sleep Disturbance Implications For Modern Military Operations, Douglas R. Lindsay, Jeff Dyche
Sleep Disturbance Implications For Modern Military Operations, Douglas R. Lindsay, Jeff Dyche
Journal of Human Performance in Extreme Environments
As is evident from current military operations that are happening around the globe (e.g., Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea), today’s military is being called on in numerous new and innovative ways (e.g., Foster & Lindsay, 2011). One of the primary forces behind this change is the pervasiveness of enhanced information systems. In fact, the concept of networked warfare is the basis of operations and doctrine for the armed forces (Wesensten, Belenky, & Balkin, 2005). With respect to Admiral Cebrowski’s quote, it appears that this notion of information in warfare is going to continue to influence the way that we approach and conduct …
Intelligent Shelter Allotment For Emergency Evacuation Planning: A Case Study Of Makkah, Kwangsoo Yang, Faizan Ur Rehman, Hatim Lahza, Saleh Basalamah, Shashi Shekhar, Arif Ghafoor
Intelligent Shelter Allotment For Emergency Evacuation Planning: A Case Study Of Makkah, Kwangsoo Yang, Faizan Ur Rehman, Hatim Lahza, Saleh Basalamah, Shashi Shekhar, Arif Ghafoor
Cyber Center Technical Reports
Given maps of an evacuee population, shelter destinations and a transportation
network, the goal of intelligent shelter allotment (ISA) is to assign routes, exits and shelters to evacuees for quick and safe evacuation. ISA is societally important due to emergency planning and response applications in context of hazards such as floods, terrorism, fire, etc. ISA is challenging due to conflicts between movements of evacuee-groups heading to different shelters and transportation-network choke-points. State of the practice based on Nearest Exit or Shelter (NES) paradigm addresses the former challenge but not the latter one leading to load-imbalance and slow evacuation. Recent computational …

By Popular Demand: Building A Consortial Demand‐Driven Program, Xan Arch, Robin Champieux, Susan Hinken, Emily Mcelroy, Joan Thompson
Charleston Library Conference
The Orbis Cascade Alliance set out to create an e‐book program for its 36 member libraries. Unlike the single-library patron‐driven acquisition programs that we have seen in the past, this ambitious pilot needed to take into account the different discovery options and workflow requirements of 36 libraries and their varying size and technical capabilities. We will discuss the ideal makeup of an implementation team for a program of this size, how to assess the technical hurdles and what training must be provided, how to work with vendors effectively in this setting, and how to evaluate the success of a patron‐driven …

Experiences From The Field: Choosing A Discovery Tool For Your Unique Library, Jennifer Castaldo, Christine Korytnyk Dulaney, Tom Klingler, Doralyn Rossmann, Laura Wrubel
Charleston Library Conference
Our users want an easier way to search library resources; currently, there are many discovery tools available, which can seem daunting. How do you know which one will work for your unique library? Librarians from different types of libraries—an online library, a land-grant school, a law library, a private university, and a consortium—describe how they evaluated the available products and made decisions on which tools to implement. A variety of platforms are discussed, including: Ebsco’s Discovery Service, III’s Encore Synergy Discovery, Serials Solutions’ Summon, and even a homegrown solution. Discover what libraries are looking for in these tools, strategies for …

Let Go And Haul! A Square‐Rigger’S Guide To Weeding “Age Of Sail” Collections In The 21st Century, Valarie Prescott Adams, Douglas Black
Let Go And Haul! A Square‐Rigger’S Guide To Weeding “Age Of Sail” Collections In The 21st Century, Valarie Prescott Adams, Douglas Black
Charleston Library Conference
This nautically tinged talk explores what happens when two academic libraries begin reshaping their approach to collection evaluation and management by designing programs for large‐scale, systematic collection review. At both libraries, methodical and comprehensive weeding had not taken place for decades, if ever. The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga restructured its collection practices by implementing a subject liaison program and creating a carefully phased review process in which discipline faculty were an integral part. Northern Michigan University set out to halve the size of its circulating collection within five years, as part of the library’s response to a campus‐wide strategic …
A First-Year Librarian’S Weeding Project Management Experience From Start To (Planned) Finish, Kady Ferris
A First-Year Librarian’S Weeding Project Management Experience From Start To (Planned) Finish, Kady Ferris
Charleston Library Conference
This paper will provide an adaptable roadmap for weeding a monograph collection at a small academic library. When starting straight out of library school as the first Collection Development Librarian for the St. Edward’s University library in July 2010, I was confronted with a monograph collection that had never been weeded in any systematic way. As a small liberal arts university library, it is not our mission to collect comprehensively but rather to support the current curriculum, which is focused on social issues in a global context. Yet, there we were with a dusty, dated, unused collection filling the shelves. …
2011 Global Student E‐Book Survey, Allen Mckiel
2011 Global Student E‐Book Survey, Allen Mckiel
Charleston Library Conference
This article reviews the responses from the second ebrary informal survey of students concerning their experiences with information resources, which was conducted in September and early October of 2011. The first survey concluded in May of 2008. The surveys asked essentially the same questions about student use of electronic and print resources— perceived strengths and weaknesses as well as preferences and attitudes about them. This analysis compares the student responses separated by the three and a half years. Tables 11, 12, 15, and 16 use data constructed from the 2008 survey that were not initially reported so that they could …
Purr: A Research Data Curation Service Model Using Hubzero, Courtney E. Matthews, Michael Witt
Purr: A Research Data Curation Service Model Using Hubzero, Courtney E. Matthews, Michael Witt
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
The Purdue University Research Repository (PURR, http://research.hub.purdue.edu) uses HUBzero to provide a research collaboration and data management solution for campus researchers. The National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and other funding agencies have begun requiring that researchers describe in their grant proposals how they will manage and share the data that will be produced in their research. Purdue researchers can include PURR in their data management plans, invite collaborators to work with them in a private projects on PURR, and publish datasets that can be cited using Digital Object Identifiers (DOI). This presentation will explore Purdue’s data …

The World Of The Landscape, Bart Verschaffel
The World Of The Landscape, Bart Verschaffel
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "The World of the Landscape" Bart Verschaffel analyzes the visual logic of the landscape genre in painting as it was developed from the sixteenth century onward. He argues that the structure of a minimal foreground, a middle ground cut off from the foreground, and a background that gives way to the distant, corresponds to a meditative attitude, proper to the nature of the image as such. The landscape is essentially a calm image. Second, Verschaffel puts forward that the middle ground in landscape images is not, as in history painting, a waiting room adjacent to the action …
