Mannino, Michael V.; Khojah, Mohammed; Gregg, Dawn G. – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2021
This paper describes an innovative approach for teaching the challenges in the management of data warehouse development. The approach contains lecture material providing conceptual background about the management of data warehouse development, a simulation game supporting experiential learning, and a post-play debriefing to support synthesis of…

Gallagher, Leonard; Salazar, Sandra – 1984
This report describes approaches to database translation (i.e., transferring data and data definitions from a source, either a database management system (DBMS) or a batch file, to a target DBMS), and recommends a method for representing the data structures of newly-proposed network and relational data models in a form suitable for database…

Vanker, Anthony D. – Laserdisk Professional, 1989
Provides an introduction to the technical aspects of digital audiotape and compares it to other computer storage devices such as optical data disks and magnetic tape cartridges in terms of capacity, transfer rate, and cost. The current development of digital audiotape standards is also discussed. (five references) (CLB)

Shekhel, Alex; Freeman, Eva – Library Hi Tech, 1987
Discusses the advantages of parallel processor computers in terms of expandibility, cost, performance and reliability, and suggests that such computers be used in library automation systems as a cost effective approach to planning for the growth of information services and computer applications. (CLB)

Hickman, Linda J. – 1986
Technological advances in microcomputer hardware and software, including size of memory and increasingly more sophisticated statistical application packages, create a new era in educational research. The alternative to costly main-frame computer data processing and statistical analysis is explored in this paper. In the first section, typical…

Richey, R. Wayne – CAUSE/EFFECT, 1979
The feasibility of replacing existing central processing units with a single computer facility is discussed. An analysis of the computing facilities for the Iowa state universities is presented and supports the retention of decentralized facilities. Efficiency, costs, and operating considerations are examined. (SF)

Screening the High-Risk Newborn for Hearing Loss: The Crib-O-Gram v the Auditory Brainstem Response.

Cox, L. Clarke – Infants and Young Children, 1988
Presented are a rationale for identifying hearing loss in infancy and a history of screening procedures. The Crib-O-Gram and auditory brainstem response (ABR) tests are evaluated for reliability, validity, and cost-effectiveness. The ABR is recommended, and fully automated ABR instrumentation, which lowers expenses for trained personnel and…
