SweatDrops is a social networking app for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. It allows users to find nearby people with similar interests to exercise with, and discover fitness and sports events in their area. The app was built with a Ruby on Rails backend and iOS clients. Key features include displaying nearby users and loading local events from third party APIs into the app's database. The system is centered around events, which users can attend, host, and build their social networks around.

Wachovia wells fargo presentation Jian Arthur Guan, Jan Lam Wong, and Tip Piu...Arthur Guan
The document summarizes the analysis and rationale for Wells Fargo's acquisition of Wachovia in 2008. It outlines the synergies calculated from operational cost savings and tax benefits totaling $27.91 billion. The exchange ratio calculation showed initial dilution for Wachovia shareholders but accretion when synergies are considered. Post-merger performance data and analyst commentary indicate the acquisition helped both banks survive the financial crisis.
This document discusses active management versus passive management. It presents an overview of active management along a continuum from passive to highly active. It discusses factors that influence market efficiency and the costs of active management including fees. Alternatives to pure passive investing are presented where active management may outperform, such as when readily replicable indexes are not available. The document also discusses a model for assessing the plausibility of investment management fees and the decision making process of active investors. It presents inputs and results of a model analyzing the effects of investor characteristics, horizon, and heterogeneity on whether active management can beat its costs. Country and time differences in active management are also noted.

2. API-uri utilizate
Pentru realizarea Mashup-ului “GeoSharing” am
utilizat urmatoarele API-uri:
Google Maps API
Geolocation API
OpenWeatherMap API
3. Descriere API-uri
Google Maps API reprezinta defapt o colectie mai
vasta de API-uri ce pun la dispozitia utilizatorului o
multime de facilitati cum ar fi:
alegerea tipului de harta(Google Places, Static Maps,
Street View Image)
plasarea de marcare
Trasarea pe harta, etc.
Cea mai importanta functie oferita de Google Maps
APIs o reprezinta insa inserarea une harti dinamice in
cadrul unei pagini web, sau a diferitor aplicatii.
4. OpenWeatherMap contine la randul sau 6 API-
uri. Cel utilizat de catre mine se numeste “Curent
Weather Data”. Motivul pentru care am utilizat
acest API il reprezinta posibilitatea oferita de a
putea obtine date termice pentru o locatie data
prin coordonatele sale geografice.
Asadar acest API se imbina perfect cu
functionalitatile oferite de API-urile de la Google
Maps.
5. Funcţionatitate Mashup
Mashup-ul creat de mine combina cele 3 API-uri
descrise anterior pentru a realiza urmatoarele
functii:
Inserarea in pagina HTML realizata a unei harti
interactive
Plasarea pe harta deja inserata de markere
printr-un singur click. Aceste markere au fiecare
atasata cate o fereasta de informatii(info
windows) ce contine coordonatele locatiei
respective.
Ascunderea si reafisarea acestor markere prin
6. O alta facilitate pe care o gasesc importanta este
aflarea locatiei curente a utilizatorului prin aparitia
pe harta a unui marker animat ce contine
coordonatele obtinute prin Geolocation API
(spefic HTML5).
In fine, Mashup-ul mai contine butonul Get
Weather care odata apasat afiseaza temperatura,
viteza vantului, numele si tara pentru locatia
curenta.
Aceste informatii sunt obtinute in urma unei cereri
facute catre API-ul oferit de OpenWeatherMap
care returneaza un fisier Json din care extrag
doar informatiile dorite.
