Time Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC) today issued two stipends as part of its Research Program on Digital Communications. Launched in February 2010, the Research Program engages scholars to increase understanding of the benefits and challenges facing digital technologies in the home, office, classroom and community. Past reports are available free for download at the program’s website.
Today’s stipends are the last round of awards made for the 2012 cycle. Awards were also made during 2010 and 2011. To date, the Research Program has made 20 awards to 27 leading researchers. The next deadline for stipend applications is April 1, 2013.
The scholars selected for stipends and brief descriptions of their papers follow:
Community Metrics: Guiding Localism in Communications Policy Work,
by
Eric
Freedman, Dean and Professor at the Knight School of Communication
at Queens University of Charlotte. This project will increase
understanding of how to measure local community media literacy and
engagement. The project will guide policy makers and providers of local
news and information in their assessment of the information needs of a
local community and the creation and delivery of locally relevant
content.
Designing a Virtual Peer Community for Students With Sensory
Disabilities,
by Raja
Kushalnagar, Assistant Professor in the Information and Computing
Studies Department at the National Technical Institute for the Deaf,
Rochester Institute of Technology. This project will increase
understanding of how to enhance participation of students with sensory
disabilities in science, technology, engineering and math learning.
Specifically, the project will propose how to use online communities to
support student preparation through mentoring, peer contacts,
networking, and enhanced information accessibility. The project will
inform policy makers and industry stakeholders about ways to promote
outreach to marginalized populations through technology and mentoring.
Fernando Laguarda, director of the program and Vice President for External Affairs and Policy Counselor at Time Warner Cable, said, “We are pleased we continue to attract the best minds working on communications, media and technology policy issues and are particularly proud to be funding research in our home communities of Charlotte, NC and Rochester, NY. We look forward to learning from this work and making further contributions to the communications and technology policy debate.”

By Jeremy Geelan “Regulations and compliance are key trust topics with regards to cloud solutions and technology,” noted Sven Denecken, Vice President, Strategy and Co-Innovation Cloud Solutions, SAP AG, in this exclusive Q&A with Cloud Expo Conference Chair Jeremy Geelan. “But it is also more than security of access – it is portability of data and a clear definition of where the data resides.”

By Elizabeth White One of the cloud’s biggest draws is the capability to virtualize computing resources, allowing it to be consumed with the click of a mouse. But behind that simple click is an enormous infrastructure challenge that has recently been cited as a major cause for slower enterprise adoption. Enterprises can better prepare for this shift and take full advantage of future computing benefits. Between architecture design and migration planning, the road can be long, so what do you do with your talent?

By Pat Romanski In the old world of IT, if you didn't have hardware capacity or the budget to buy more, your project was dead in the water. Budget constraints can leave some of the best, most creative and most ingenious innovations on the cutting room floor. It’s a true dilemma for developers and innovators – why spend the time creating, when a project could be abandoned in a blink? That was the old world. In the new world of IT, developers rule. They have access to resources they can spin up instantly.

By Liz McMillan “I’m careful when using terms like Big Data, because it can mean so many things to different people,” explained Eric Hanselman, Chief Analyst at 451 Research, in this exclusive Q&A with Cloud Expo Conference Chair Jeremy Geelan. “There is huge value in analytics that companies can use to pull intelligence from a collection of data sources that are available in their businesses. The inexpensive storage that cloud services can offer make a great environment to pull together siloed data.”
