Understanding The Importance Of Ferpa & Data Protection In Higher Education. An Application: Website At La Salle University, Robert Frank, Lynne Wagner

Mathematics and Computer Science Capstones

Personal data protection is a paramount conversation globally. The higher education industry is abundant in varying types of highly sensitive information; the security of this data is critical, requiring all stakeholders be educated and aware of the standards and best practice securing it. This project’s main outcome is to conduct in-depth research on personal data protection regulations within higher education and the development of an example educational webpage for the La Salle University community relating to policy, practice, and procedures of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).

The Mission of La Salle University affirms a community commitment to …

Rcon Administration Tool Designed For Use With Garry’S Mod And Source Servers, John Gibbons

Mathematics and Computer Science Capstones

The proposed project is an Android application designed to interact with the Source RCON protocol. Defined below: The Source RCON Protocol is a TCP/IP-based communication protocol used by Source Dedicated Server, which allows console commands to be issued to the server via a "remote console", or RCON. The most common use of RCON is to allow server owners to control their game servers without direct access to the machine the server is running on. In order for commands to be accepted, the connection must first be authenticated using the server's RCON password, which can be set using the console variablercon_password.

Hardware Design Theory (Using Raspberry Pi), Anthony Kelly, Thomas Blum Dr.

Undergraduate Research

The concept for this research proposal is focused on achieving three main objectives:

1) To understand the logic and design behind the Raspberry Pi (RbP) mini-computer model, including: all hardware components and their functions, the capabilities [and limits] of the RbP, and the circuit engineering for these components.

2) To be able to, using the Python high-level language, duplicate, manipulate, and create RbP projects ranging from basic user-input and response systems to the theories behind more intricate and complicated observatory sensors.

3) Simultaneously, in order to combine a mutual shared interest of History and to blend in work done within …

Research has found that Americans spend 4.5 hours watching television, 1.5 hours listening to the radio, about half an hour reading print and spend a whooping five plus hours per day in digital media (online, mobile, other). Out of these five hours, two hours and twenty minutes are spent on a mobile device (phone or tablet), which is a massive increase of about 575 percent from the twenty-four minutes that was reported in 2010. Flurry, an analytic app company, released data about their tracking of more than 300,000 apps in 2013, and they found the average time spent per day …

Voice Recognition And Mobility In The Legal Industry, David Solomon, Brian Pillar

Mathematics and Computer Science Capstones

In a typical legal work environment, attorneys work with their staff to generate and send case related legal documents and communications. Traditionally the attorney will dictate to a device capable of recording audio and the legal assistant will transcribe the audio directly from the source. In the early days of recorded dictation audio was recorded and saved to analog tape. Once the technology became available, dictation was saved digitally to flash memory and transmitted to hard disk for playback by the legal assistant. It has been this way for years, and due to advances in voice recognition technology and computer …

Web Conferencing For Business, David Laratta, Yves Mekongo

Mathematics and Computer Science Capstones

Many companies are investing to offer their workforce the best collaboration and web conferencing products they can afford. Many Information Technology scholars believe that efficient collaboration technologies for all are no longer a nice to have but a must have (M2 Presswire, 2014). To that effect, there is a dilemma many corporations and leaders face today when it comes to online collaboration and in which products to invest; Wayne Mayson cited above, claims that many leaders are failing to exploit mobile communications and collaboration tools despite their emergence and their growing accessibility in the market place. The results from this …

Web Portal For Elderly Patients To Research Prescription Medication, Krista Miller, Robert File, Wil Murphy Jr

Mathematics and Computer Science Capstones

People 55 and older constitute 25.2% of the U.S. population. These senior citizens use a vast amount of prescription drugs to treat and control health related issues. An analysis of the drug industry reveals several challenges facing this demographic group: costs, coverage by insurance companies and drug interactions. The need for a centrally located drug information source for senior citizens and their caregivers is immense. We propose researching and viewing what is available from various areas and developing a user-friendly information source prototype to assist this demographic group with their medication under takings. We expect to deliver a summary of …
