, energy, oil and gas refining, and transportation systems to achieve increasing efficiencies in overall system operation. As geographically-aware sensors and mobile devices (such as GPS-enabled cell phones ) become more ubiquitous and allow the public to capture where (a) the location of events happen or (b) data is gathered, such actions have potential impacts on future actions, strategic decisions and proposed policies. In particular, mobile GTs open the door to methods of reasoning and persuasion that would be impossible without the use of publically available spatial information. For example, during a disaster, location-based videos captured through cell phones at a disaster site can facilitate rapid allocation of resources

way ensures that the system“knows” the dependencies between concepts, and uses this knowledge to provide customizedinstruction and feedback to errors.For our purposes, we identified a set of concepts that are taught in our Java programminglanguage course at the Southern Taiwan University. Each concept is represented by a node in thegraph. We add a directed line from one concept (node) to another, if knowledge of the former is aprerequisite for understanding the latter. Thus, the DAG can be constructed manually with the aidof the course textbook. For example, consider one instance of the if statement in Java such as: if((a <= b) && (b <= c)) return true

Wait no shorter than 10 seconds and press Ctrl-C to stop sniffing. 3. Check the names of the generated file by typing ls /home/student 4. The binary log file name looks like this: BinCapture.1160008555, in which 1160008555 is the timestamp. Your log file should have a different timestamp. 5.
