Jagannadham Thunuguntla discusses about the fund raising by Sterlite Industries via ADS. The two ADR issuances by Sterlite are the largest by any Indian company since 2004.
Floorscapes Attitude Is Essential to SuccessAndy Wichert
This document discusses the importance of changing your attitude for success in business and life. It states that most people resist change and would rather change their circumstances than improve themselves. However, to improve one's situation, one needs to change internally by improving their attitude and business practices. It provides five steps for changing one's attitude: 1) change yourself by focusing on self-improvement over fault-finding; 2) change your attitude to think positively; 3) change non-growing business partners; 4) determine to live differently than average people by focusing on self-improvement; and 5) unlearn what you know to learn new practices through admitting flaws, open-mindedness, and committing to change.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Understanding the Remote Field Data Communications ChallengeTrevor Textor
Trevor Textor discusses challenges with rural data communications and enabling digital oilfields. He dispels six common misconceptions: 1) There is no single best radio frequency, requirements determine choice. 2) Evaluate radios based on spectral efficiency, not just frequency. 3) Total communication costs include business impacts, not just equipment. 4) Coordinated planning delivers better results than individual teams. 5) Infrastructure design requires engineering expertise beyond off-the-shelf towers. 6) Connected fields using proper communications are possible and increase productivity and revenues.
Blade Runner, the 1982 science fiction classic directed by Ridley Scott, will be screened for free on 35mm film at the Marquee Union South at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on January 29th, 30th, and 31st. The screenings provide a rare opportunity to see one of the most visually influential films of all time in a large theater format. Critics praise Blade Runner for its groundbreaking cinematography and intricately detailed futuristic worldbuilding.

The 27th Australasian Conference on Information SystemsMahdi_Fahmideh
Many organisations are currently moving their legacy systems to the cloud as it offers reduced cost, improved operational efficiency, on-demand, and pay-as-you-go service models. While any cloud migration scenario to make legacies cloud-enabled may have their own characteristics, there is no universally superior or applicable method for all scenarios. In situations like this, designing customization methods that fit characteristics of migration scenarios would be pivotal for successful adoption of cloud computing. The literature review reveals that issues surrounding method tailoring for the cloud migration have so far been missing and this is despite the call made by previous researches to adopt a tailoring perspective to the cloud enablement. To effectively address this shortcoming, this study applied the idea of situational method engineering to develop a framework which facilitates the design and maintenance of bespoke cloud migration methods. The paper demonstrates the applicability of the proposed framework via presenting two scenarios.
... now write an interpreter (PHPem 2016)James Titcumb
Second half of my two part series on interpreters. In this, I demonstrate how easy it is to write a very basic maths sum interpreter, including a live demo of adding a new language feature!
Kicking off with Zend Expressive and Doctrine ORM (ZendCon 2016)James Titcumb
You've heard of the new Zend framework, Expressive, and you've heard it's the new hotness. In this talk, I will introduce the concepts of Expressive, how to bootstrap a simple application with the framework using best practices, and how to integrate a third party tool like Doctrine ORM.
