Presentation for the 2013 Cross Timbers Library Collaborative (CTLC) Conference. This presentation discusses the implementation of the Extended Date/Time Format (EDTF) within the University of North Texas (UNT) digital collections. It includes a summary of the kinds of date formats in the EDTF with examples from the digital collections, a description of methods used to implement and utilize the machine-readability of the format, and an overview of reasons that other institutions may want to consider switching to the EDTF.

This presentation discusses improving access to web archives through innovative analysis of PDF content. It includes a background of the End of Term (EOT) 2008 Presidential Web Archive, a collaborative web archiving project, collection development with web archive content, and the workflow and processes involved in these projects.

This presentation discusses adapting to change using ILLiad.

The presentation discussed findings of a recent NREL technical report on best practices for designing and implementing incentives for small and mid-sized residential and commercial distributed solar energy projects. Topics covered included: factors to consider in setting and modifying incentive levels over time, differentiating incentives to encourage various market segments, and administrative issues such as providing equitable access to incentives and customer protection. In addition, the presentation explored how incentive programs can be designed to respond to changing market conditions while attempting to provide a longer-term and stable environment for the solar industry. The findings of the report were based on interviews with program administrators, regulators, and industry representatives as well as data from numerous incentive programs nationally, particularly the largest and longest-running programs.

Presentation for the 2013 Digital Frontiers Annual Conference. In this presentation, the authors discuss the goals, processes, exhibitions, concerns, and difficulties of the Natchez Trace Collection at the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History.

This presentation discusses research on indoor air quality (IAQ) and building a small IAQ control system using Arduino microcontroller board and micro gas sensors (CO2, O3, etc.). This research is part of Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) in Sensor Education, a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded grant project.

This presentation discusses the Initial round robin results of the IEC 62804 system voltage durability qualification test for crystalline silicon modules.

Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and electric vehicles have increased vehicle thermal management complexity, using separate coolant loop for advanced power electronics and electric motors. Additional thermal components result in higher costs. Multiple cooling loops lead to reduced range due to increased weight. Energy is required to meet thermal requirements. This presentation for the 2013 Annual Merit Review discusses integrated vehicle thermal management by combining fluid loops in electric drive vehicles.

Presentation for the inaugural Library Human Resources Management Association Conference. The authors discuss keeping human resources happy with the use of rubrics in evaluations during hiring and performance evaluations.

Recent advancements in utility-scale wind turbine technology and pricing have vastly increased the potential land area where turbines can be deployed in the United States. This presentation quantifies the new developable land potential (e.g., capacity curves), visually identifies new areas for possible development (e.g., new wind resource maps), and begins to address deployment barriers to wind in new areas for modern and future turbine technology.

Presentation on the implementation of the Extended Date/Time Format (EDTF) within the University of North Texas (UNT) digital collections, including the results of an analysis performed in February 2013. It provides a summary of the kinds of date formats in the EDTF with examples from the digital collections, a description of methods used to implement and utilize the machine-readability of the format, and an overview of reasons that other institutions may want to consider switching to the EDTF.

Presentation for the 2013 International Internet Preservation Consortium General Assembly. Discusses Internet Memory's efforts to create archived web infrastructure for researchers, as well as to use the social web to develop new research tools.

This presentation, 'Light-Weight, Low-Cost, Single-Phase Liquid-Cooled Cold Plate,' directly addresses program goals of increased power density, specific power, and lower cost of power electronics components through improved thermal management.

This presentation gives the historical background of the creation of the International PV QA Task Force as an introduction to the PV Module Reliability Workshop.

Presentation for the 2013 International Internet Preservation Consortium General Assembly. Discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the Memento project, the potential challenges post-implementation, and factors that are important to a successful user experience.

This presentation discusses the 'Mapping the Southwest' project and the collaboration for curation of wide-format items.

Presentation for the Cross Timbers Library Collaborative (CTLC) Scholarly Communications and Digital Curation (SCDC) Affinity Group 2013 Winter Meeting. This presentation discusses the Maverick Veterans Voices Project and the lessons learned.

This presentation is part of the faculty lecture series UNT Speaks Out for Food Day. Presenter, Ken Botts, is special projects manager for the UNT Dining Services and he discusses the meatless revolution and a case study of the nation's first vegan dining hall, Mean Greens. Botts explores the current food trends that made Mean Greens a possibility.

This presentation accompanies an essay that was awarded a Nicholas and Anna Ricco Award for 2013. In this presentation, the author discusses media ethics and how changes in journalism and technology have led to new ethical dilemmas.

Presentation for the 2013 International Internet Preservation Consortium General Assembly. Summary of current status of ongoing projects at the National Diet Library in Japan.

Presentation for the 2013 International Internet Preservation Consortium General Assembly. Discusses the current release and development status of the Memento Aggregator, along with future goals and challenges.

Presentation for the 2013 International Internet Preservation Consortium General Assembly. Discusses the impact of web archives on historical research, focusing on the history of North African immigrants.

With numerous options for the future of natural gas, how do we know we're going down the right path? How do we designate a metric to measure and demonstrate change and progress, and how does that metric incorporate all stakeholders and scenarios?
