Rijpma et al. 2019 - record linkage in the cape of good hope panelBram van den Hout This document describes the record linkage process used to create a panel dataset from Cape Colony census returns from 1787 to 1828. It evaluates different statistical models and algorithms to link households over time, using a subset of manually linked records. The best approach uses household characteristics in the linking process to create high-quality links for 84% of the 42,354 household observations. Basic analyses on the linked panel dataset are compared to the original cross-sectional data. The record linkage approach is also adapted to link the panel dataset to a separate genealogical record dataset, demonstrating the flexibility of the method.

Data manipulation instructionsMahesh Kumar Attri Data manipulation instructions perform operations on data and provide computational capabilities for computers. These instructions are divided into three basic types: arithmetic instructions, logical and bit manipulation instructions, and shift instructions. Arithmetic instructions include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and incrementing and decrementing values. Logical and bit manipulation instructions operate on individual bits and include AND, OR, XOR, and clearing, complementing, and manipulating carry bits. Shift instructions shift the contents of an operand left or right in logical, arithmetic, or rotate operations.

Data transfer and manipulation
Data transfer and manipulationSanjeev Patel 1) Data transfer instructions move data between processor registers and memory without changing the data. Common instructions include load, store, move, exchange, input, and output.
2) Data manipulation instructions perform arithmetic, logical, and bitwise operations on data to provide computational capabilities. Examples include add, subtract, multiply, divide, and, or, xor.
3) Program control instructions alter the program flow by branching, jumping, calling subroutines, handling interrupts, and returning from subroutines. Status bits track results of operations.

It began with a 20-question prelim round where ‘star questions’ played a key tie-breaking role. The top 8 teams moved into advanced rounds, where they faced audio-visual challenges, pounce/bounce formats, immunity tokens, and theme-based risk-reward questions. From Orwell and Hemingway to Tagore and Sarala Das, the quiz traversed a global and Indian literary landscape. Unique rounds explored slipstream fiction, constrained writing, adaptations, and true crime literature. It included signature IDs, character identifications, and open-pounce selections. Questions were crafted to test contextual understanding, narrative knowledge, and authorial intent, making the quiz both intellectually rewarding and culturally rich. Battle of Bookworms proved literature quizzes can be insightful, creative, and deeply enjoyable for all.

This presentation has been made keeping in mind the students of undergraduate and postgraduate level. In this slide try to present the brief history of Chaulukyas of Gujrat up to Kumarpala To keep the facts in a natural form and to display the material in more detail, the help of various books, websites and online medium has been taken. Whatever medium the material or facts have been taken from, an attempt has been made by the presenter to give their reference at the end.
Chaulukya or Solanki was one of the Rajputs born from Agnikul. In the Vadnagar inscription, the origin of this dynasty is told from Brahma's Chauluk or Kamandalu. They ruled in Gujarat from the latter half of the tenth century to the beginning of the thirteenth century. Their capital was in Anahilwad. It is not certain whether it had any relation with the Chalukya dynasty of the south or not. It is worth mentioning that the name of the dynasty of the south was 'Chaluky' while the dynasty of Gujarat has been called 'Chaulukya'. The rulers of this dynasty were the supporters and patrons of Jainism.

Sustainable Innovation with Immersive Learning
Sustainable Innovation with Immersive LearningLeonel Morgado Prof. Leonel and Prof. Dennis approached educational uses, practices, and strategies of using immersion as a lens to interpret, design, and planning educational activities in a sustainable way. Rather than one-off gimmicks, the intent is to enable instructors (and institutions) to be able to include them in their regular activities, including the ability to evaluate and redesign them.
Immersion as a phenomenon enables interpreting pedagogical activities in a learning-agnostic way: you take a stance on the learning theory to follow, and leverage immersion to envision and guide your practice.

Editor's Notes
- #4: Hub used mainly for linked data project where we wanted to match to VIAF. Will come to later in the workshop.
- #5: Review options on import screen Talk through the example data and the purpose of the columns
- #6: Facet
- #7: Mention that facet on duplicates for person URI doesn’t necc mean want to remove the rows as the Arc Res URIs may be different. Depends what wanting to do. More tutorials http://kb.refinepro.com/2011/08/remove-duplicate.html http://enipedia.tudelft.nl/wiki/OpenRefine_Tutorial#Deduplicate_entries
- #8: Explain why might want to reconcile to VIAF. Other recon services at https://github.com/OpenRefine/OpenRefine/wiki/Reconcilable-Data-Sources
- #9: http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData.html
- #12: If any of cells in the columns are blank, the merge will fail for that row. To fix, create a facet of blank cells with "Text Facet" ⇒ "Customized Facets" ⇒ "Facet by Blank". Then use "Edit Cells" ⇒ "Transform ..." and enter a string with a space: ' '. This also has it’s limitations as some names have inconsistent number of commas.
- #13: Talk through faceting of judgement. How check and accept reconclied rows. Explain why this is why have included Hub URI and ArcRes URI for manual checking
- #16: Mock-up of the LInking Lives interface shows the way data is brought together.
