Knoppix is an astoundingly clever product. It runs Linux completely from a CD or DVD. There is no need to install. It bypasses all the software already installed on your PC or laptop and automatically detects the hardware in your computer (subject to suitable hardware). When you've finished using Knoppix, simply restart. Your computer will return to your regular system, and it will behave as if nothing has happened. Knoppix is Free Software and open source under the terms of the GNU General Public Licence (GPL).
TeX is a computer program for typesetting documents, created by Donald Knuth. …
TeX is a computer program for typesetting documents, created by Donald Knuth. It takes a suitably prepared computer file and converts it to a form which may be printed on many kinds of printers, including dot-matrix printers, laser printers and high-resolution typesetting machines. LaTeX is a set of macros for TeX that aims at reducing the user's task to the sole role of writing the content, LaTeX taking care of all the formatting process. A number of well-established publishers now use TeX or LaTeX to typeset books and mathematical journals. It is also well appreciated by users caring about typography, consistent formatting, efficient collaborative writing and open formats.This is a guide to the LaTeX markup language. It is intended to form a useful resource for everybody from new users who wish to learn, to old hands who need a quick reference.

This resource was created at the University of Maryland (UMD) for instructors who want to teach, students (and instructors) who want to learn, and researchers who want to use R for statistical discovery and analysis. While this is a textbook, it is largely based on hands-on examples with video walk-throughs to take you through accessing R and RStudio, the basics of R and progressing to analyses with step by step templates and video support. The goal is to build confidence with programming early on and demonstrate best coding practices from the start.
The Little Book of Semaphores is a free (in both senses of …
The Little Book of Semaphores is a free (in both senses of the word) textbook that introduces the principles of synchronization for concurrent programming.In most computer science curricula, synchronization is a module in an Operating Systems class. OS textbooks present a standard set of problems with a standard set of solutions, but most students don't get a good understanding of the material or the ability to solve similar problems.The approach of this book is to identify patterns that are useful for a variety of synchronization problems and then show how they can be assembled into solutions. After each problem, the book offers a hint before showing a solution, giving students a better chance of discovering solutions on their own.The book covers the classical problems, including "Readers-writers," "Producer-consumer", and "Dining Philosophers." In addition, it collects a number of not-so-classical problems, some written by the author and some by other teachers and textbook writers. Readers are invited to create and submit new problems.

Polytechnic University of Valencia has established an Action Plan, Teaching Network (Docencia en red), which aims to promote the use of ICT in teaching, supporting the teacher in all processes related to innovative actions and providing both resources and services support to facilitate the use of these technologies in teaching. This plan is structured through annual calls for proposals (2018-2019 Call) .
The purpose of this call is to encourage teachers at the Universitat Politècnica de València to produce during the academic year 2018-2019 ("and in all previous calls") educational materials destined to enhance the repository of digital learning objects RiuNet, to stimulate the use of learning modules in UPV subjects, to enrich the collection of freely accessible materials.
All materials elaborated have to meet the criteria set out in the guidelines for the creation of learning materials (http://www.upv.es/contenidos/DOCENRED/infoweb/docenred/info/710371normalc.html).
In order to guarantee the quality of the materials presented to the plan, the UPV centres, through the Learning Object Groups, will value the materials produced, with quality indicators. The approval of the objects for publication will be carried out by the Commission of the Network Teaching Plan.
All OER are accessible through the institutional repository Riunet, through OAI-PMH they can be harvested by other information resources (e.g. BASE, etc.). They are described with Dublin Core and DC.LOM metadata.

Topics vary from year to year. Topic for Fall: Eigenvalues of random matrices. How many are real? Why are the spacings so important? Subject covers the mathematics and applications in physics, engineering, computation, and computer science. This course covers algebraic approaches to electromagnetism and nano-photonics. Topics include photonic crystals, waveguides, perturbation theory, diffraction, computational methods, applications to integrated optical devices, and fiber-optic systems. Emphasis is placed on abstract algebraic approaches rather than detailed solutions of partial differential equations, the latter being done by computers.

Presents the main concepts of decision analysis, artificial intelligence, and predictive model construction and evaluation in the specific context of medical applications. Emphasizes the advantages and disadvantages of using these methods in real-world systems and provides hands-on experience. Technical focus on decision analysis, knowledge-based systems (qualitative and quantitative), learning systems (including logistic regression, classification trees, neural networks), and techniques to evaluate the performance of such systems. Students produce a final project using the methods learned in the subject, based on actual clinical data. (Required for students in the Master's Program in Medical Informatics, but open to other graduate students and advanced undergraduates.)
