Harvard reference citations are often error-prone when cited manually. With the launch of DeadlineDue.com’s Harvard reference citation for Web sites, students, researchers and teachers can easily reference works cited without error

DeadlineDue.com, a free Web-based tool from Rad Inks, has already made finishing an academic paper easier than ever by allowing users to retrieve a Harvard reference citation simply by entering the title or ISBN number of a book. Today, the site is expanding to allow users to enter a URL and receive a Harvard reference citation for any Web site.

When creating academic works such as research papers and theses, writers must properly credit the source of words or ideas they have drawn from other reports or papers. One method of doing so is the widely used Harvard Referencing System, also known as the author-date system. But creating a complete, accurate and properly formatted Harvard reference list has traditionally been a time-consuming process. To make matters worse students often leave this for last.

“Harvard reference citations are often error-prone when cited manually. With the launch of DeadlineDue.com’s Harvard reference citation for Web sites, students, researchers and teachers can easily reference works cited without error,” says Raditha Dissanayake, Chief Software Architect at Rad Inks.

DeadlineDue.com, launched earlier this year, makes this process fast, easy and error-proof. The Web site’s interface is clean and uncomplicated - users simply enter in the title or ISBN number of a book and the site generates a fully formed Harvard reference that may be copied and pasted into any document. In the event that a query produces multiple results, such as different editions of a book, DeadlineDue.com will display all found entries.

One of the most difficult aspects of designing a content management system or a file sharing application is to create the file upload component. With the new version of Rad Upload, the user can select any number of files and folders, drag them and drop them on her browser to start the upload.

However, if the files chosen contain more data than the webmaster is willing to process, the user will be immediately notified of the fact and the upload abandoned.

With traditional upload systems these safety checks are not available. Excess data can only be rejected at the server side. That means with conventional upload forms, the data is posted to the server regardless of it’s size.

Testing and possible rejection happens only afterwards, leading to an utter waste of time and bandwidth.

There are other ways in which the webmaster can make life easier for the user (and for himself) with this software. Specially if the web site is an image hosting or photo printing site. Many such sites only want images to be uploaded; Rad Upload can easily be setup to reject anything other than images.

Certain web applications that deal with images need to re-size them. the conventional approach is to upload the files first and re-size them on the server. Because images with large dimensions have large sizes, it takes longer to upload them. With Rad Upload, the images can be re-sized at the sending end, reducing the bandwidth consumption, upload time and the load on the server’s hardware. The other significant bandwidth saving measure is the software’s ability to compress files before the upload begins. This can lead to a reduction of upload times by 50-70% (depending on the content).
