The document discusses the differences between filters and queries in databases. Filters are used to find specific data that meets criteria, while queries can be saved, printed, and have specific fields displayed in the results. It provides examples of using comparison operators (<, >, <=, >=, =, <>) to define filter criteria and discusses using connectors (AND, OR, NOT) to combine multiple criteria. It also demonstrates how to create and run both filters and saved queries in an Access database.

How to Battle Bad Reviews
Learn how to battle bad reviews - and why you shouldn't fear bad Glassdoor reviews: http://gldr.co/FearReview
Activism x Technology
What happens when the digital tools and platforms we make and use for communication and entertainment are hijacked for terrorism, violence against the vulnerable and nefarious transactions? What role do designers and developers play? Are we complicit as creators of these technologies and products? Should we police them or fight back? As Portfolio Lead for Northern Lab, Northern Trust's internal innovation startup focused on client and partner experience, Antonio will share a mix of provocative scenarios torn from today's headlines and compelling stories where activism and technology facilitated peace—and war.
As a call-to-action for designers and developers to engage in projects capable of transformational change, he'll explore the question: How might technology foster new experiences to better accelerate social activism and make the world a smarter, safer place?

PART IWelcome to the Free Excel Student Template Version 16.1.11De.docx
PART IWelcome to the Free Excel Student Template Version 16.1.11Dear Student,By using this Template, you hereby agree to the Copyright terms and conditions. This Template should save you considerable time and allow for your presentation to be more professional. Do not mistake this Template for doing all of the work. Your assignment is to analyze and present strategies for the next three years. You will still need to do the research and enter key internal and external information into the Template. The Template does not gather or prioritize information. It does however assimilate information you enter in a professional way and does many calculations for you once that critical information is entered. Refer to the David & David textbook for conceptual guidelines for developing all matrices and analyses included in this Template. Best of luck with your project. Instructions for Using the Template1Please read all Template instructions below carefully before you start each new section of this Template. Only type in the green boxes. Refer to the David & David textbook for conceptual guidelines for every matrix and analysis in this Template.2This Template is organized into three primary parts: Part I, Part II, and the respective data output pages for your respective matrices. All data entered will be entered into Part I or Part II. Part I consists of data entry in developing matrices, where Part II consists of data entry for your financial information, including ratios, financial statements, and projected financial statements. Blue buttons are provided for navigating within and to Part I, yellow buttons are for navigating within and to Part II, orange buttons are for navigating to the respective matrices and pink buttons are for navigating to your financial output tables. The navigation buttons along the top of Part I and Part II may not be visible for Apple users but all other features should work without any problems.Strengths and Weaknesses1Enter into the Template exactly 10 strengths and 10 weaknesses, no more and no less. Your factors should be detailed and actionable rather than vague. For example, the strength: "Sales up nicely" is too vague and not actionable; "Sales were up 15% on women's apparel in China during 2015" is stated far better. Always be thinking in terms of divisions when writing strengths and weaknesses. Note women's apparel could be a division for Nike. All divisions do not need to be treated equally; allow more coverage for divisions with more revenue and those most pertinent to your strategic plan.2Weights reveal how important a factor is to being successful in the industry. All weights are "industry-based." A factor of 0.10 for example is 5 times more important than a factor of 0.02 for being successful in the industry. Do not be afraid to include factors with lower weights though. To have a factor make your top 10 list (10 strengths for example out of the 100s the firm likely has), justifies its importance, ye ...

Big Data Analytics Tools./ Final Exam/PROJECT - BETTER UNDERSTAND ATTRITION.docx
FINAL EXAM – EXERCISE – To Better Understand Attrition.
This is a final project – you are going to exam the HR-BalanceSheet dataset and write a short report on what you found. I will guide you through the analysis, but as we go through the analysis you are going to need to capture data for the final report.
1. Load the dataset into Statistica
2. Generate Histograms for all of the data
a. Make notes on what you observe from the histograms. Can you learn anything about the business from these histograms?
b. Capture all of the histograms.
3. Now generate a correlation matrix to see if any variables are highly correlated. If variables are highly correlated and you are doing a supervised method (e.g., decision tree), then one of them must be omitted from the analysis. Do you know why?
Statistics->Nonparametrics->Correlations Okay.
Now select ALL of the variables and select “Spearman rank R”.
4. Let’s copy this out to Excel.
a. Open a blank Excel file
b. Go to Statistica – the output correlation matrix –
i. Hit Ctrl – A - this will select everything.
ii. Right Click - select “Copy with Headers”
iii. Go To Excel – select Paste
5. Select all of the numbers in Excel
a. Go To Conditional Formatting
i. Highlight all values greater than 0.70
6. This tells you the values that are highly correlated. Record what they are – these cannot be used in a supervised modeling exercise together. For example, JobLevel and TotalWorkingYears are highly correlated.
a. Make a list of all of the variables that are highly correlated (>0.7).
BUSINESS PROBLEM: The company has employee data for the last several years. In this data set we have a wide range of data, including whether or not they left the company (i.e., Attrition). If Attrition is set to “Yes”, they left the company. If Attrition is set to “No”, they did not leave the company.
The first thing we want to do is take a “high” level look at those people who left the company.
Go to Selection Criteria – that is accessible through the Sel:Off setting at the bottom of the Statistica window. Click on “Sel:Off”
Set the selection criteria to Attribute = “Yes”.
7. Generate Histograms for all of the data
a. Make notes on what you observe from the histograms. Can you learn anything about the business from these histograms?
b. Capture the histograms that tell you something about the business.
Go back to the selection criteria and turn the Sel: back to “Off”.
8. Now build a decision tree (C&RT) to see if we can find out what influences where or not individuals decide to leave the company.
If you exclude the variables that are highly correlated, you can generate a tree.
Generate a C&RT tree
Pick your variables (Quick)
· Attrition is your dependent variable
· Select the categorical and continuous v.

Checking accounts are the most liquid but usually don't earn interest, while certificates of deposit are the least liquid but generally pay the highest interest rates if funds are left until maturity. The document recommends matching individual needs and goals to the appropriate savings tool.

Annual Report Workbook
Getting under the hood of an Annual Report
and knowing what’s inside
by Donald Bittar
Introduction
You can use this workbook for analyzing many companies and saving your analysis for each one, like many professionals. Just like them, over time, you can compare a company’s actual performance to your analysis and predictions. Saving your analysis sheets can help sharpen you analytical skills.
The questions in the workbook are numbered the same way as they are in the book, ‘Getting Under the Hood of an Annual Report’. As there are no questions in the first chapter of the book, the workbook starts with Chapter 2. It will make it easier for you to relate the questions in the workbook to those in the book.
Your input to the workbook will appear in a dark green font while the questions appear in blue. The different font colors can make it easier for you to see your work.
You’ll need to do some number crunching to complete your annual report analysis. The Big Calculating Tool, located on your CD, can save you a great deal of time and make the number crunching nearly painless. Every ratio and calculation for the book is included in the Big Calculating Tool. You’ll have more time for analysis if you use the Big Calculating Tool.

Big Data Analytics Tools./ Final Exam/PROJECT - BETTER UNDERSTAND ATTRITION.docx
FINAL EXAM – EXERCISE – To Better Understand Attrition.
This is a final project – you are going to exam the HR-BalanceSheet dataset and write a short report on what you found. I will guide you through the analysis, but as we go through the analysis you are going to need to capture data for the final report.
1. Load the dataset into Statistica
2. Generate Histograms for all of the data
a. Make notes on what you observe from the histograms. Can you learn anything about the business from these histograms?
b. Capture all of the histograms.
3. Now generate a correlation matrix to see if any variables are highly correlated. If variables are highly correlated and you are doing a supervised method (e.g., decision tree), then one of them must be omitted from the analysis. Do you know why?
Statistics->Nonparametrics->Correlations Okay.
Now select ALL of the variables and select “Spearman rank R”.
4. Let’s copy this out to Excel.
a. Open a blank Excel file
b. Go to Statistica – the output correlation matrix –
i. Hit Ctrl – A - this will select everything.
ii. Right Click - select “Copy with Headers”
iii. Go To Excel – select Paste
5. Select all of the numbers in Excel
a. Go To Conditional Formatting
i. Highlight all values greater than 0.70
6. This tells you the values that are highly correlated. Record what they are – these cannot be used in a supervised modeling exercise together. For example, JobLevel and TotalWorkingYears are highly correlated.
a. Make a list of all of the variables that are highly correlated (>0.7).
BUSINESS PROBLEM: The company has employee data for the last several years. In this data set we have a wide range of data, including whether or not they left the company (i.e., Attrition). If Attrition is set to “Yes”, they left the company. If Attrition is set to “No”, they did not leave the company.
The first thing we want to do is take a “high” level look at those people who left the company.
Go to Selection Criteria – that is accessible through the Sel:Off setting at the bottom of the Statistica window. Click on “Sel:Off”
Set the selection criteria to Attribute = “Yes”.
7. Generate Histograms for all of the data
a. Make notes on what you observe from the histograms. Can you learn anything about the business from these histograms?
b. Capture the histograms that tell you something about the business.
Go back to the selection criteria and turn the Sel: back to “Off”.
8. Now build a decision tree (C&RT) to see if we can find out what influences where or not individuals decide to leave the company.
If you exclude the variables that are highly correlated, you can generate a tree.
Generate a C&RT tree
Pick your variables (Quick)
· Attrition is your dependent variable
· Select the categorical and continuous v.

"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.

This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.
