Podcasts and SAC

In this one hour and twenty minute podcast, we feature the closing speech from the 2007 Seminars On Academic Computing in Snowmass Village, Colorado. The speaker is Clifford A. Lynch, Executive Director of the Coalition for Networked Information. His speech is entitled, The Institutional Challenges of Cyberinfrastructure and E-Research.

It has become clear that scholarly practice and scholarly communication across a wide range of disciplines are being transfigured by a series of developments in IT and networked information. While this has been widely discussed at the national and international levels in the context of large-scale advanced scientific projects, the challenges at the level of individual universities and colleges may prove more complex and more difficult. This presentation will focus on these challenges, as well as the development of truly institution-wide strategies that can support and advance the promises of e-research.

In this hour and ten minute long podcast from the 2007 Seminars on Academic Computing, we hear from Fred H. Cate, Distinguished Professor at the School of Law and Director of the Center for Applied Cybersecurity Research at Indiana University, with a speech entitled, Privacy and Security in Higher Education: Filling the Policy Vacuum .
