A PILOT SOFTWARE MAINTAINABILITY STUDY OF A SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM LIBRARY Part II

The Role of Library in a School of Architecture, A Study of the Built Environment Library of SBU

The swing of the pendulum between centralization and decentralization of the higher education (HE) system has generally been towards the former in the Iranian context in the past decade. This has prompted some academics, particularly those who find their disciplines left out to react by highlighting intrinsic differences in teaching and studying methods across the HE spectrum. Built Environment...

PARMONC - A Software Library for Massively Parallel Stochastic Simulation

We assume that a functional of interest ϕ ∈ R is represented as an expectation of some random variable ζ: ϕ ≈ Eζ One evaluates the value of Eζ using a sample mean Eζ ≈ ¯ ζ = L −1 L i=1 ζ i where sample values ζ i are independent and identically distributed random variables having the same distribution as ζ. One also needs to evaluate a second moment Eζ 2 of the random variable Eζ 2 ≈ ¯ ξ = L −1...

Comparison of Information Retrieval Capabilities in Library Software of Payam, Voyager and Aleph

The purpose of this study was comparing Information Retrieval Capabilities in Web-based Library Software of Payam, with Voyager and ALEPH. A checklist designed and included six main trait for evaluation and comparing 73 scales. Data collected by experts' observing of the software's OPAC. Data analyzed by the descriptive statistics methods. Findings shows the preferences in search capabilities i...
