Online Qualitative Research Resources Home - Qualitative Research Resources - Antioch University New England. Compiled by Susan Hawes, PhD for the Clinical Psychology Department, Antioch University New England. I created this site initially to provide my graduate students access to information on qualitative research that they could access easily and at no cost. I have organized it thematically, beginning with this page on “megasites,” which are pages that for the most part cover the topic broadly, like this site. The other organizing themes are: bibliographies, creating manuscripts, associations and institutions, journals publishing qualitative research, methodology (and methods), other social science links, and software for qualitative analyses.

The Qualitative Research Clearinghouse: Resources for Methods, Analysis, and the Future This site at Central Michigan University is a recent discovery for me. The coverage for teaching is excellent.

E-Science. Characteristics and examples[edit] Most of the research activities into e-Science have focused on the development of new computational tools and infrastructures to support scientific discovery. Due to the complexity of the software and the backend infrastructural requirements, e-Science projects usually involve large teams managed and developed by research laboratories, large universities or governments. Currently[when?] There is a large focus in e-Science in the United Kingdom, where the UK e-Science programme provides significant funding.

In Europe the development of computing capabilities to support the CERN Large Hadron Collider has led to the development of e-Science and Grid infrastructures which are also used by other disciplines. Consortiums[edit] Example e-Science infrastructures include the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid, a federation with various partners including the European Grid Infrastructure, the Open Science Grid and the Nordic DataGrid Facility.

UK programme[edit] E-research. The term e-Research (alternately spelled eResearch) refers to the use of information technology to support existing and new forms of research. E-research extends e-Science and cyberinfrastructure to other disciplines, including the humanities and social sciences. Examples of e-Research problems range across disciplines and include: modelling of ecosystems or economiesexploration of human genome structuresstudies of large linguistic corpusesintegrated social policy analyses The main features of e-Research are that it: is collaborativeuses grid computing technologiesis data intensive E-Research includes research activities that use a spectrum of advanced information and communication technology (ICT) capabilities.

The Digital Rube Goldberg Processor - by The Product and HfG Karlsruhe communication design students. #processing. The Digital Rube Goldberg Processor is the outcome of a workshop The Product collective gave at the HfG Karlsruhe (Design School).

The team was invited to give a 4-day Processing workshop for the communication design students there. Since they understand it is impossible to teach programming to beginners just within 4 days, they decided to focus more on the essential topics behind generative and computational design, to provide a grounded starting point for the students. Jens explains: We first gave a quick introduction to the processing environment, thematically centered around the actual matter of generative design, namely digital data. Given the fact that any stored data is binary code in the end, it is the encoding and decoding algorithms that make digital data meaningful for us. To create an awareness for that, we came up with the idea of the rube-goldberg-processor (wiki).
