    - Agenda
      1. University Planning
      2. Faculty IT (Stuart Borthwick)
      3. PhD and Research Staff Skills Training and Development in the Faculty (Andrea Haworth)
      4. VLS - questions and answers (Jo Rowell)
      5. Open discussion
    - Notes
      1. University Planning
        
        Michael Arthur
        
        UCC dispute resolution :-)
        
        VLS and other aspects of the economies exercise still a challenge
        
        A lot of management work now needed!
        
        No additional cuts for education in budget announced today
        
        This is good news for the University of Leeds, but if there is a change in government at the forthcoming election there is likely to be a new budget!

        http://www.skillsdevelopment.org.uk/default.aspx?page=1376
        
        http://blogs.nature.com/news/thegreatbeyond/2010/03/uk_budget_green_cash_but_scien.html
        
        Government giving greater recognition to the importance of universities for the wider economy?
        
        STEM subjects more important for this though.
        
        Russell Group
        
        As chair of this, the VC is recommending that the UK would be better off concentrating research funding in these universities
        
        http://www.russellgroup.ac.uk/
        
        Feedback
        
        Myles Gould asked about any plans for university mergers
        
        This may be needed for universities that are failing, but no merger plans for the University of Leeds are on the table.
        
        Regional collaboration is probably a good idea for some subjects?
      2. Faculty IT (Stuart Borthwick)
        
        http://www.leeds.ac.uk/foe/it/index.htm
        
        Web Services Leader is Richard Bettle
        
        Unix Leader Richard Rigby
        
        UITD - University IT Delivery (or something like that...)
        
        Feedback
        
        What is going to be virtualised?
        
        Most existing servers
        
        New virtual servers might not be offered.
        
        I asked if server based virtualisation had been considered at the university level?
        
        I suspect this is more appropriate...
      3. PhD and Research Staff Skills Training and Development in the Faculty (Andrea Haworth)
        
        Funding for generic skills training
        
        1 year left

      4. VLS - questions and answers (Jo Rowell)
      5. Open discussion
        
        There is a USS pension blackhole!
        
        I wanted to say that our focus should be on quality and not on moving up the ranks in league tables
        
        The risk of doing the latter is that quality will suffer in the long term...
        
        But I decided to keep quiet!

    - It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.

  - Reviewed a paper "Exploring the Ends of the Earth" by Paul Wessel for Oceanography
    - http://www.tos.org/oceanography
    - I recommended that someone from the WorldWind or Google Earth communities and/or Martin Desruisseaux be approached to provide further review...
    - My review
      - Substance
        
        Is the manuscript suitable for a general oceanographic audience and/or a scientifically literate, non-oceanographic audience? Please explain.
        
        Yes, it describes two interesting concepts: The furthest points on land from the coast and the furthest points in the seas from the coast. The challenge to locate and visit these places is the crux of the article.
        
        Does the manuscript have a significant message?
        
        The significant message is that there is uncertainty associated with the calculation of these locations especially on a global scale. It also presents a challenge to visit two locations on a purposeful mission.
      - Style
        
        Could the manuscript be shortened?
        
        Yes, but it is a good length.
        
        Is it well constructed?
        
        Yes
        
        Are figures and references suitable?
        
        Yes, but I would like to see more of the beautiful globe maps. A link to an online 3D spinning globe visualization would be a good addition.

  - Meeting with Nawaf Alotaibi about Road Accident Data Analysis for Riyadh
    - Documentation
      - Nawaf brought a PhD proposal and a summary of the personal injury road accident data available for Riyadh
    - Topic considerata
      - Focus on (King) Abdullah Road
      - High incidence:
        
        Wednesday is the highest accident day
        
        Saturday morning is first main working day after weekend break
        
        Using phone while driving
      - Increasing incidence with Pakistani ethnic drivers?
    - Data
      - Accident Data
        
        The format is similar to UK Stats 19 data
        
        The detail of the coordinates for location needs to be looked at.
      - Road Data
        
        Nawaf is a police officer and the police have road data, but...
        
        OpenStreetMap
        
        http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=24.707&lon=46.736&zoom=11&layers=B000FTF

    - Techniques
      - Nawaf has read about some Australian research involving Kernel density maps and K-means clustering.
      - Nawaf keen to use software rather than do any programming.
      - I summarised again what I managed to get done as I worked for a PhD on the analysis of personal injury road accidents in Great Britain almost 10 years ago:
        
        http://www.geog.leeds.ac.uk/people/a.turner/publications/papers/working/RasterBasedGWS_0.2.doc
        
        I talked about comparing incidence over time, the difficulties of lack of data for developing models of expected incidence
        
        We considered how to compare rates of the observed and expected and how to visualise the data.
    - Next steps
      - Andy to email Nawaf with these notes
      - Nawaf to approach Andy Evans as a potential PhD supervisor
      - Nawaf to write down some of the ideas our meeting brought to mind :-)
      - Nawaf to get the accident data and start some exploratory analysis and think about getting Andy a copy of the data to run through his programs...
    - This is re-igniting my interest in road accident geography:

    - GENESIS Web 2.0 Agent City Simulation: Getting users and allowing them to control/guide Agents and model development
      - Andy Turner
      - In GENESIS I am developing models of cities where each person is modelled as an Agent. There are currently two temporal resolutions/scales of model: One ticks in seconds and runs for days, like a traffic simulation; the other ticks every day and runs for years, like a demographic model.
      - Currently the traffic simulation model is based on commute to work journey information from the 2001 Census, and OpenStreetMap data. This provides a basic level of traffic, but clearly misses many journeys. Anyway, Agents in the model are assigned shifts for working and they move from a home and back to a workplace based on these shifts which are made up. Now, I want to develop a way for potential users to take control of Agents, initially those representing themselves, and input their locations and journey purposes.
      - With the more demographic model where time ticks every day, so again there is an opportunity for Agents to be specified more by feeding from other available data for births deaths and migrations some of which may again be user contributed.
      - I plan to present progress on this and try to get feedback to make this better.
