The Alpine Convention (AC) promotes research, cooperation and monitoring activities in the Alpine Region. In this framework, the AC Atlas is the official content management system for geographical data published by the Alpine Convention. The AC Atlas' final goal is to promote, collect, organise and disseminate the results of research activities carried out by the Alpine Convention, its Working Groups and by European projects in the Alpine Region. The system is based on the open-source GeoNode platform supporting standard OGC services. Hence, the AlpConv Atlas allows for browsing, searching, editing documents, layers, maps, and related metadata by an intuitive web-based graphical user interface. The AC Atlas is finally a collaborative platform for managing various geographical data and the related documentation, which can be of great interest to several stakeholders.

A content management system provides some key capabilities that can transform project management for pipeline surveying and engineering practices. These include methods to share and track the information used by project managers, engineers, project technical staff, and the pipeline owner / operator. The business need for content management is explained, along with a unique insight on the key ingredient that makes content management relevant to pipeline project managers: geographic referencing of project documents. Content management features, such as versioning and checkout, are presented, and a working web-based geographic content management system, developed entirely using free open source software, is demonstrated for a sample pipeline project. The working system integrates project documents, written communications, and CAD data through open standards. Conclusions include lessons learned in the development of the system and its use on real-world projects.

SYNOPSIS Web-based training (WBT) has become a widely popular training option that can be applied throughout a variety of areas and industries. Mining is a challenging industry that is continuously searching for improvements in its safety training processes. We used the content management system (CMS) WordPress to develop a web-based application to support traditional training in the mining industry. The study focuses on introducing operators of heavy machinery in surface mining operations to pre-shift machine inspections. WordPress does not require technical skills, and in addition to its default features, it offers a vast number of useful plugins. This project implements several plugins to create an application with training courses. In this paper we present both the process of creating a training course and an example of a developed course. Such training applications can be used on the internet or through a local area network. Keywords: web-based training, WordPress, safety training, surface mining.

<p class="Judul2">Persyaratan mahasiswa yang berminat menempuh studi atau mendapatkan beasiswa pendidikan ke Perguruan Tinggi Luar Negeri dengan pengantar bahasa mandarin, adalah memiliki Sertifikat Hànyǔ Shuǐpíng Kǎoshì (HSK). Nilai lulus ujian HSK untuk mendapatkan sertifikat HSK, sering menjadi kendala calon mahasiswa meraih kesempatan studi tersebut. Saat ini, penerapan Teknologi Informasi (TI) pada bidang pendidikan dan pengajaran semakin berkembang. Melalui pemanfaatan TI yang tersedia, dengan aplikasi berbasis Content Management System (CMS), penelitian ini dilakukan untuk membantu mengatasi kendala ujian HSK. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menghasilkan Aplikasi Sistem Manajemen Konten bahasa Mandarin yang menunjang kebutuhan ujian HSK. Aplikasinya dibuat dengan menggunakan yii framework dan berbasis web. Tahapan pembuatan aplikasi mengikuti pola Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) dengan metode Waterfall yang mencakup kegiatan analisa kebutuhan, perancangan, implementasi dan uji coba modul serta perawatannya. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian, secara fungsional aplikasi berjalan sesuai dengan yang diharapkan. Sementara pada analisa data kuesioner responden, dihasilkan nilai rata-rata 3,67 skala Likert. Dengan demikian aplikasi yang digunakan pengguna memberikan nilai cukup baik.</p><p class="Abstrak"><em><strong>Abstract</strong></em></p><div class="WordSection1"><p class="Abstract"><em>One of the requirements to obtain a scholarship for educational abroad into overseas university which is using Mandarin as an academic language is the prospective applicants must have a Hànyǔ Shuǐpíng Kǎoshì (HSK) Certificate. However, the result of their HSK exam is often becoming a constraint for the prospective students in grabbing the opportunity to get the scholarship. Meanwhile, nowadays, the application of Information Technology (IT) in the field of education is constantly widespread and developed well. So, this study was conducted to overcome the obstacles in the HSK exam, by utilizing the developement of Information Technology which is based on Content Management System (CMS). The purpose of this study is to provide a Mandarin Content Management System Application that supports the HSK exam. The application is made using the yii framework and is web-based. The stages of making the applications follow the pattern of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) with the Waterfall method which includes the analysis, design, implementation and trial of modules and its maintenance. Based on the test results, the application runs as expected. Meanwhile, the analysis of respondents' questionnaire data produced an average value of 3.67 Likert scale. Thus, the users who use this application give quite good results.</em></p></div><p class="Abstrak"><strong><br /></strong></p>

Launched at the end of 2012, the catalogue raisonné of American Abstract Expressionist painter Jack Tworkov, represents a major effort in preserving and promoting the legacy of the artist. This article describes the collaboration between the Tworkov Estate and panopticon, the software engineers who have developed an innovative web-based content management system specifically designed to catalogue cultural objects. The result of that collaboration is the first free online catalogue raisonné available to the public.
