New Zealand to Digitize and Preserve National Heritage

Together the organizations will develop the technical architecture to support
the library's National Digital Heritage Archive (NDHA) Program, a national
initiative to access, manage and preserve New Zealand's digital heritage.
The National Library of New Zealand's NDHA Program aims to develop an
end-to-end process for the care and handling of digital material.

Tsuda, Chairman of the Host Organizing
Committee of the Kyoto Conference: "Historically, diagnosis and treatment
recommendations written by specialists without input from primary care were
not always applicable in real life in a busy practice. Management recommendations of IPAG are in conformity with GINA, GOLD
and ARIA. This will
ensure the protection of New Zealand's national cultural heritage for future
generations and will support the New Zealand government's Digital Strategy,
which aims to:

1) Strengthen national identity and uphold the Treaty of Waitangi through
reflecting the digital identities of New Zealanders and making that
visible on the international stage.
While the library already leverages Sun's local consulting expertise, as
well as Sun New Zealand partner Gen-i's, the association with Sun will give
the National Library of New Zealand access to the significant Intellectual

Differential
diagnosis between COPD and asthma is of essential importance as the two
diseases may require different approaches to treatment. These were the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) in 1997, the
Global Initiative for Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) and Allergic Rhinitis
and Its Impact on Asthma (ARIA) in 2001.
The IPAG task force was established in 2002 to develop evidence-based
guidelines specifically designed for use in primary care settings, on the
basis of GINA, GOLD and ARIA."
The expert panel developed and validated a set of questionnaire tools to
help busy primary care physicians attribute the patient's presenting symptoms
to either asthma, COPD or allergic rhinitis. (Nasdaq: SUNW), today announced the National Library of New Zealand is
