Book Cataloging and Classification

Download or read book Cataloging and Classification written by Lois Mai Chan and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth edition of the late Lois Mai Chan's classic Cataloging and Classification covers the analysis and representation of methods used in describing, organizing, and providing access to resources made available in or through libraries. Since the last edition published in 2007, there have been dramatic changes in cataloging systems from the Library of Congress. The most notable being the shift from AACR2 to Resource Description and Access (RDA) as the new standard developed by the Library of Congress. With the help of the coauthor, Athena Salaba, this text is modified throughout to conform to the new standard. Retaining the overall outline of the previous edition, this text presents the essence of library cataloging and classification in terms of three basic functions: descriptive cataloging, subject access, and classification. Within this framework, all chapters have been rewritten to incorporate the changes that have occurred during the interval between the third and fourth editions. In each part, the historical development and underlying principles of the retrieval mechanism at issue are treated first, because these are considered essential to an understanding of cataloging and classification. Discussion and examples of provisions in the standards and tools are then presented in order to illustrate the operations covered in each chapter. Divided into five parts—a general overview; record production and structure, encoding formats, and metadata records; RDA; subject access and controlled vocabularies; and the organization of library resources—each part of the book begins with a list of the standards and tools used in the preparation and processing of that part of the cataloging record covered, followed by suggested background readings selected to help the reader gain an overview of the subject to be presented. This book is the standard text for the teaching and understanding of cataloging and classification.

Book Cataloging and Classification

Download or read book Cataloging and Classification written by Athena Salaba and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 791 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The new edition of this essential work has raised the bar on an already excellent text about cataloguing." - Library Journal, Starred Review The fifth edition of the classic Cataloging and Classification covers the analysis and representation of methods used in describing, organizing, and providing access to resources made available in or through libraries. Since the last edition, there have new developments in cataloging, with the introduction of the IFLA Library Reference Model (LRM) and the new, official RDA, following the 3R Project. This text presents the essence of library cataloging and classification in terms of four basic functions: descriptive cataloging, authority work, subject access, and classification. Within this framework, content has been re-organized, all chapters have been rewritten, and new chapters have been introduced to incorporate the changes that have occurred during the interval between the four and fifth editions. In each part, the historical development and underlying principles of the retrieval mechanism at issue are treated first, because these are considered essential to an understanding of cataloging and classification. Discussion and examples of provisions in the standards and tools are then presented to illustrate the operations covered in each chapter. Divided into seven parts—a general overview; record production and structure, encoding formats, and metadata records; RDA (original and official); subject access and controlled vocabularies; the organization of library resources; encoding & records of bibliographic and authority data; and cataloging ethics--this book includes lists of the standards and tools used in the preparation and processing of cataloging records covered, lists of RDA elements, and sample records. Its companion website with interactive learning activities and supplementary materials located at catclassintro.org make it a true multimedia tool.

Book A Dynamic Programming Approach to Optimal Center Delay Allocation

Download or read book A Dynamic Programming Approach to Optimal Center Delay Allocation written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the runway threshold and airport capacity constraints, aircraft are often required to delay their arrival time when they are approaching the TRACON (Terminal Radar Approach Control) area to meet separation requirements and to ensure safety. This is particularly true in the US in the northeast corridor, where sectors are small, with shorter controllable time, and involving very complex and heavy traffic flows. In this situation, downstream schedule constraints may be passed upstream, most likely across multiple ARTCCs (Air Route Traffic Control Centers) and multiple sectors. More sectors may be needed to absorb the required delay. The technical issue for delaying aircraft over extended region is that uncertainties in flight time, and the rather close tolerance on final spacing, make delay predictions far into the future rather suspect. This paper provides a delay strategy that the problem of distributing delay across multiple sectors is addressed as a discrete optimal control problem. Game theory, coupled with dynamic programming (DP) is used in this research to give an optimal solution for the delay controls in each sector. In this application the sector delay is chosen to minimize a performance index and the uncertainty is viewed as an adversary trying to maximize the performance index. This DP approach is capable of creating a favorable delay distribution solution and the solution is fuel efficient. It is easy for controller to implement because the algorithm is computationally efficient, the method can quickly reallocate the delay by adjusting the model parameters to provide a robust solution. As currently formulated the DP algorithm ensures only separation at the terminal fix. However, at several intermediate points, the traffic may merge into a single stream from several directions. An algorithm is developed to integrate the DP algorithm so as to solve the intermediate merging conflict as well as ensuring terminal separation. The validity of this mechanism is examined in a realistic traffic scenario simulation involving several intermediate merge points representative of traffic into the Philadelphia airport.
