Underscore.js

by marco & 2 others (via)
A new library of functional programming primitives for JavaScript—each, map, all, any, inject, detect etc. Unlike some similar libraries this one doesn't extend the built-in objects, instead opting to bind the new functions to the underscore symbol.

An Informal Catalogue of Slit-Scan Video Artworks and Research - Golan Levin and Collaborators

by karlcow

Slitscan imaging techniques are used to create static images of time-based phenomena. In traditional film photography, slit scan images are created by exposing film as it slides past a slit-shaped aperture. In the digital realm, thin slices are extracted from a sequence of video frames, and concatenated into a new image.

OpenURL ContextObject in SPAN (COinS) Use with LibX (Firefox extension that provides direct access to your library's resources).

by decembre & 3 others
To embed citation metadata into html in such a way that processing agents can discover, process and make use of the metadata. Since an important use of this metadata will be to allow processing agents to make OpenURL hyperlinks for users in libraries (latent OpenURL), the method must allow the metadata to be placed any where in HTML that a link might appear. In the absence of some metadata-aware agent, the embedded metadata must be invisible to the user and innocuous with respect to HTML markup. To meet these requirements, the span element was selected. The NISO OpenURL ContextObject is selected as the specific metadata package. The resulting specification is named "ContextObject in SPAN" or COinS for short. ..... A COinS Generator site is available - See : COinS Processors Alf Eaton's Greasemonkey script for processing COinSVirginia Tech's

Open Publication Distribution System (OPDS), une technologie qui répond à un enjeu de société - Le Cléo (Centre pour l’édition électronique ouverte)

by decembre
L’enjeu le plus important, aujourd’hui, est de permettre l’épanouissement d’un grand nombre d’entrepôts de livres électroniques et d’un grand nombre de libraires électroniques (cf :"Gutenberg, ce criminel " et dans "Et si Itunes avalait tous vos livres?" . L’enjeu est économique. Il est culturel. Il est politique. C’est un enjeu de société qui ne doit pas être réduit à une question technologique. Souhaitons-nous confier le contrôle de la diffusion des livres électroniques à 5 ou 10 acteurs majeurs dans le monde (au hasard : Apple, Amazon, Google) ou souhaitons-nous permettre la naissance de multiples canaux d’émission de livres et de multiples canaux de distributions de livres? .

Le Cléo (Centre pour l’édition électronique ouverte, avec de nombreux podcasts de cours et conférences ) - The open electronic publishing blog

by decembre
L’édition n’a pas attendu Internet pour passer au numérique. Cependant, la fameuse “convergence numérique”, qui a fait les beaux jours de la bulle Internet dont Vivendi Universal fut l’incarnation française, continue à être dans les esprits.Quels types de bonnes pratiques faut-il mettre en œuvre? Existe-t-il un équivalent d’Opquast pour l’édition électronique? Quels environnements technologiques pour quels standards ouverts et libres ?

Geographic library

by karlcow

GeographicLib is a small set of C classes for performing conversions between geographic, UTM, UPS, MGRS, geocentric, and local cartesian coordinates and for solving geodesic problems. The emphasis is on returning accurate results with errors close to round-off (about 5–15 nm). In addition, various properties of the Transverse Mercator Projection are described and an accurate algorithm for Geodesics on the Ellipsoid is given.
