Elixir & Phoenix – fast, concurrent and explicitTobias Pfeiffer
Elixir and Phoenix are known for their speed, but that’s far from their only benefit. Elixir isn’t just a fast Ruby and Phoenix isn’t just Rails for Elixir. Through pattern matching, immutable data structures and new idioms your programs can not only become faster but more understandable and maintainable. This talk will take a look at what’s great, what you might miss and augment it with production experience and advice.
This document summarizes Erlang processes and scheduling in Erlang. It discusses the process control block, stack and heap, message passing, the scheduler, workload balancing across schedulers, and garbage collection. The scheduler prioritizes ports, maximum, high and normal/low priority queues. It will consume all reductions for a process or pause it waiting for a message. The garbage collector uses copying collection for process heaps and reference counting for shared binaries.
Bottleneck in Elixir Application - Alexey Osipenko Elixir Club
This document appears to be a presentation in a foreign language (not English) about performance bottlenecks in Elixir applications. It introduces the presenter, Alexey, and mentions that while Elixir has advantages over JavaScript for asynchronous programming, high loads can still cause performance problems. It concludes by thanking the audience and providing Alexey's contact information.
Functions are the core of Elixir. There are two types: anonymous functions defined with fn/end and named functions defined inside modules. Anonymous functions are closures that can access outer scope bindings. Named functions can be public or private and allow default parameters and pattern matching. Pattern matching selects function clauses by matching argument patterns. Guards extend pattern matching with conditional checks. Functions transform data rather than change it, making Elixir functional.

Pharmaceutical syrups are concentrated aqueous preparations containing 85% sugar or sugar substitute, with or without flavorings and active medicinal substances. They provide an easy to administer oral liquid dosage form. Syrups are prepared through various methods including solution with heat, agitation without heat, addition of sucrose to liquid medicaments, or percolation. They contain components like sweeteners, preservatives, viscosity modifiers, flavorings, and colorants. Syrups offer advantages like suitability for all ages and easy administration but have disadvantages like delayed onset of action and unsuitability for some patients. Proper packaging is also required to ensure the quality and safety of syrup products.

Factors affecting undergraduate students’ motivation at a university in Tra VinhAJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: Motivation plays an important role in foreign language learning process. This study aimed to
investigate student’s motivation patterns towards English language learning at a University in Tra Vinh, and factors
affecting their motivation change toward English language learning of non-English-major students in the semester.
The researcher used semi-structured interview at the first phase of choosing the participants and writing reflection
through the instrument called “My English Learning Motivation History” adapted from Sawyer (2007) to collect
qualitative data within 15 weeks. The participants consisted of nine first year non-English-major students who learning
General English at pre-intermediate level. They were chosen and divided into three groups of three members each
(high motivation group; average motivation group; and low motivation group). The results of the present study
identified six visual motivation patterns of three groups of students with different motivation fluctuation, through the
use of cluster analysis. The study also indicated a diversity of factors affecting students’ motivation involving internal
factors as influencing factors (cognitive, psychology, and emotion) and external factors as social factors (instructor,
peers, family, and learning environment) during English language learning in a period of 15 weeks. The findings of
the study helped teacher understand relationship of motivation change and its influential factors. Furthermore, the
findings also inspired next research about motivation development in learning English process.
KEY WORDS: language learning motivation, motivation change, motivation patterns, influential factors, students’
