Free-Form Authority Models - P2P Foundation - 0 views

  • ‘authority models’in peer production, contrasts owner-centric authority models from free-form models
  • define the authority models at work in such projects. The models define access and the workflow, and whether there is any quality control.
  • the owner-centric model, entries can only be modified with the permission of a specific ‘owner’ who has to defend the integrity of his module.
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • The free-form model connotes more of a sense that all users are on the “same level," and that expertise will be universally recognized and deferred to.
  • the owner-centric authority model assumes the owner is the de facto expert in the topic at hand
  • In the case of the Wikipedia, the adherents of the owner-centric model, active in the pre-Wikipedia "Nupedia" model, lost out, and presumable, the success of Wikipedia has proven them wrong
  • dominance of difficult people, trolls, and their enablers
  • Far too much credence and respect accorded to people who in other Internet contexts would be labelled "trolls."
  • Wikipedia has, to its credit, done something about the most serious trolling and other kinds of abuse: there is an Arbitration Committee that provides a process whereby the most disruptive users of Wikipedia can be ejected from the project. But there are myriad abuses and problems that never make it to mediation, let alone arbitration.
  • most people working on Wikipedia--the constant fighting can be so off-putting as to drive them away
  • any person who can and wants to work politely with well-meaning
  • root problem: anti-elitism, or lack of respect for expertise.
  • Wikipedia lacks the habit or tradition of respect for expertise
  • nearly everyone with much expertise but little patience will avoid editing Wikipedia

A breakthrough in algorithm development for network barter | Edgeryders - 0 views

  •  
    at some point, OVN-OS will need to address matching resources to requirements (people to jobs if you will) based on the value equations of the project and the priorities of the resource - this kind of math may become required

4.1.D. Peer governance in peer production? - P2P Foundation - 0 views

  • quality control
  • access and the workflow
  • The free-form model, which Wikipedia employs, allows anyone to edit any entry at any time.
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • the owner-centric model
  • permission of a specific ‘owner’ who has to defend the integrity of his module.
  • different assumptions and effects.
  • The free-form model connotes more of a sense that all users are on the “same level," and that expertise will be universally recognized and deferred to
  • the creator of an entry is spared the trouble of reviewing every change before it is integrated, as well as the need to perform the integration
  • the owner-centric authority model assumes the owner is the de facto expert in the topic at hand,
  • and all others must defer to them.
  • the owner must review all modification proposals, and take the time to integrate the good ones.
  • The owner-centric model is better for quality, but takes more time, while the free-form model increases scope of coverage and is very fast.
  • 'equipotentiality'
  • rules are generated within the community itself, though mostly in the early phases. After a while, they tend to consolidate and they are a given for the new participants who come later
  • a process of socialization is crucial to eventual acceptance . The process is akin to the tradition of artisanship, which has been used in the three-degree system of original freemasonry as well: apprentice, companion (fellow craft), master. But it is implied rather than formalized.
  • Crucial to the success of many collaborative projects is their implementation of the reputation schemes.

Democrasoft Town Hall Online - 1 views

  •  
    Town Hall meetings are designed to give voice to everyone within a community. Town Hall Online allows any and all members of the community to ask questions, voice their opinions and vote on issues of mutual concern. Discussion topics are self-contained engagement modules that can include attachments like documents, videos, links and more. They provide a written record of the conversation and include the ability for community members to vote and be counted on individual issues. Town Hall Online topics are organized by categories created by community members and/or moderators, which can be modified anytime, as needed. Best of all, with one click, any individual discussion topic can be shared to Facebook, LinkedIn or any of more than 200 social networks, so sharing the discussion with others outside your immediate community is quick, easy and effective. It's the ultimate in building consensus and getting the word out.

Smart key - Wikipedia - 0 views

  • Keyless Go
  • The system works by having a series of LF (low frequency 125 kHz) transmitting antennas both inside and outside the vehicle. The external antennas are located in the door handles. When the vehicle is triggered, either by pulling the handle or touching the handle, an LF signal is transmitted from the antennas to the key. The key becomes activated if it is sufficiently close and it transmits its ID back to the vehicle via RF (Radio frequency >300 MHz) to a receiver located in the vehicle. If the key has the correct ID, the PASE module unlocks the vehicle.
  • transmitting low frequency LF signals via the 125 kHz power amplifier block receiving radio frequency RF signals (> 300 MHz) from the built-in ISM receiver block encrypting and decrypting all relevant data signals (security) communicating relevant interface signals with other electronic control units microcontroller

iWorx :: Organ/Tissue Bath Systems - 0 views

  • iWorx offers 4-channel (M4) or single-channel (M1) Myograph systems from Radnoti Glass Technology. These systems are designed for researchers performing contractile force studies on small ring samples with sizes ranging from 60 mm to over 1 mm in diameter. Examples include mouse aortic rings and small intestinal ring samples as well as micro-vessel preparations like mesenteric arteries.The Myograph systems include myograph chambers with transducers and amplifiers, a base with sliding wrist rest, temperature controllers, stands, tubing kits and all other essential items to conduct an experiment.iWorx offers a myograph normalization module (LS-20NM) which calculates the optimal pretension settings for each sample prior to conducting an experiment.
