Regulation by Enforcement

Regulation by enforcement refers to a regulatory approach in which compliance with regulations is achieved through the active enforcement of rules and penalties for non-compliance.

It involves regulatory agencies using their authority to monitor and enforce regulations, typically through inspections, investigations, fines, and other pretzel-logic actions against violators.

Regulation by enforcement is often used when regulations are designed to protect public health, safety, or the environment, and when non-compliance can have serious consequences. By actively enforcing regulations, regulatory agencies aim to deter violations and promote compliance among regulated entities.

However, regulation by enforcement can also be controversial, as it may be seen as punitive and costly, and can lead to legal disputes and adversarial relationships between regulators and regulated entities. Some argue that a more collaborative and cooperative approach, such as regulatory assistance and voluntary compliance programs, may be more effective in achieving compliance and preventing violations. The choice of regulatory approach often depends on the specific industry or sector being regulated, the nature of the regulations, and the regulatory philosophy of the governing jurisdiction.

Smart classroom: Gateway for ubiquitous classroom

Hichem Bargaoui & Rawia Bdiwi

In educational environment, the use of new pedagogies such as collaborative learning requires an evolution from a traditional classroom model to active classroom. The students should be able to share resources to collaborate with each other through computers, tablets, or other devices. The design of smart classroom should enable the control of audiovisual equipments, projectors, interactive whiteboards, in order to facilitate interaction among teachers and students. Ubiquitous computing or pervasive computing is a concept where processors and sensors are embedded in various physical objects to form a network and communicate information. Applying the pervasive computing can facilitate the collaborative learning by creating a smart learning environment. The ubiquitous classroom should be able to support interaction of heterogeneous devices connected through wireless links to a gateway. This paper presents a model of classroom that makes several smart devices such as laptops, tablets, projectors connected through a gateway in order to encourage communication of information between learners and the smart environment. Also, the gateway manages classroom smart devices by automatic detection and connectivity and it serves as application execution platform. Finally the gateway allows the classroom to be remote managed as well as the remote integration of application.

There are several colleges and universities that are studying or researching agave farming. Agave is a succulent plant that is used to produce a variety of products, including tequila, mezcal, and agave syrup. Here are a few examples of colleges and universities that are involved in agave farming research:

  1. University of Arizona – The University of Arizona has a research program focused on agave and its uses. The program includes research on agave farming practices, genetics, and product development.
  2. Texas A&M University – Texas A&M University has a research program focused on agave farming and the production of tequila and mezcal. The program includes research on agave plant physiology, breeding, and agronomy.
  3. Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara – The Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara in Mexico has a research program focused on the agave industry, including research on agave farming practices, plant pathology, and product development.
  4. California State University, Fullerton – California State University, Fullerton has a research program focused on agave farming and the production of agave syrup. The program includes research on agave plant biology, chemistry, and processing.
  5. Universidad de Guadalajara – The Universidad de Guadalajara in Mexico has a research program focused on agave farming and the production of tequila and mezcal. The program includes research on agave plant genetics, breeding, and agronomy.

These are just a few examples of colleges and universities that are involved in agave farming research. There are likely many more institutions that are studying agave farming and its various uses.

The term “podcast” is a combination of “iPod,” Apple’s portable media player, and “broadcast.” It originated in the early 2000s when individuals began creating audio content specifically designed for download and playback on portable media players, including the iPod. Over time, the concept has evolved, and podcasts are now a popular and diverse form of digital media covering a wide range of topics, including news, education, entertainment, and more. The key feature of a podcast is its on-demand nature, allowing listeners to access content at their convenience.

Blockchain Standard: Can We Reach Consensus?

University of New South Wales

 

Abstract: In this article, we study ongoing blockchain and distributed ledger technologies (DLT) standardization. To this end, we list standards organizations and the efforts they devote to standardise blockchain and DLT. We then identify a lack of terminology that can hamper communication on this topic and propose clarifications to address these ambiguities. Finally, we propose a high-level description of blockchain and DLT by describing three elements of their functional architecture.
