This article examines the RLG/NARA draft Audit Checklist for the Certification of Trusted Digital Repositories from the perspective of publicly funded repositories, especially government archives. It reviews the historical origins of the checklist, the comments received from government archives on the metrics in the draft document and the task force’s adjudication of those comments. Finally it ...

This paper explores the possible origins of some names in 1001 Nights. The names of the major characters of the Night stories, and their borrowed reflexes in Arabic, have been traced back to their ancient Persian roots. Examples from classical works are brought to argue that Shahrāzād, Shahriyār, and Dīnāzād are not only the correct forms but more suitable to the deep structure of the frame-sto...

Research on extractivism has rapidly proliferated, expanding into new empirical and conceptual spaces. We examine the origins, evolution, expansion of concept. Extractivism is useful to analyze resource extraction practices around world. ‘Global Extractivism’ a tool for assessing global phenomena. situate within an ensemble concepts, explore its relation development, state, value. as organizing...

We consider frames and Bessel systems generated by iterations of the form {Ag : g ∈ G, 0 ≤ n < L(g)}, where A is a bounded linear operators on a separable complex Hilbert space H and G is a countable set of vectors in H. The system of iterations mentioned above come from the so called dynamical sampling problem. In dynamical sampling, an unknown function f and its future states Af are coarsely ...
