John Veatch of Lean Concepts Inc. gave a presentation on lean manufacturing concepts and establishing world-class manufacturing practices. The presentation covered the history of lean from figures like Eli Whitney and Henry Ford to more modern contributors like Taiichi Ohno and W. Edwards Deming. It discussed the need for manufacturers to adapt from traditional push production to lean pull processes in order to eliminate waste. Core lean concepts like just-in-time, jidoka, production leveling, and visual management were explained. Tools for improvement such as value stream mapping, standardized work, and 5S workplace organization were also outlined to help manufacturers assess their current state and implement changes to achieve world-class efficiency and throughput.

Syed Awase earned his PhD from University of Zurich in GIS. The document discusses ES6 (ECMAScript 2015) features including classes, modules, arrow functions, template literals, default parameters, rest/spread operators, destructuring, and more. It provides code examples and explanations of each new feature, and how tools like Babel can be used to transpile ES6 code to ES5 for browser compatibility.
The document outlines the goals and process of developing a pedestrian facilities plan for the City of Lebanon. The plan aims to respond to needs identified in walkability surveys, establish broad goals based on land use, and devise fair processes. The process involves analyzing land use data, creating half-mile buffers around residential and commercial areas, educational and recreational facilities, and identifying focus areas where pedestrian facilities would see the most use by connecting housing to businesses and transit hubs. One such focus area is Maple Hill to Carver Hill, where proposed sidewalk improvements would link neighborhoods to commercial areas and the Music City Star rail station.

Clostridium tetani is a soil-dwelling bacterium that causes the disease tetanus. The bacterium was discovered in 1884 and its toxin causes painful muscle spasms and contractions. Tetanus enters the body through wounds exposed to contaminated soil and is transmitted worldwide, especially in warm climates. Symptoms include lockjaw, muscle stiffness, spasms and seizures. Prevention is through regular vaccination and thorough wound cleansing. Treatment focuses on medical ventilation, muscle relaxants, antibiotics and surgically removing infected tissue.
R is a free statistical programming language and software environment used for statistical analysis and graphics. It was originally based on S, a programming language developed at Bell Labs in the 1970s for statistical analysis. R can be used for data manipulation, calculation, and graphical displays. It includes functions for topics like linear and nonlinear modelling, classical statistical tests, time-series analysis, classification, clustering, and graphical techniques.
The document provides an overview of database management systems and the evolution from hierarchical, network, and relational databases to non-relational NoSQL databases. It discusses some of the limitations of relational databases including lack of scalability and flexibility. Key characteristics of NoSQL databases are described such as being non-relational, distributed, horizontally scalable, and schema-free. The goals of NoSQL databases are highlighted as addressing big data, real-time access, and high scalability through techniques like sharding.
In this tutorial we will take Mediawiki, one of the most popular open-source wiki applications, and we will use it to discuss schema and scalability design problems we suffered on Wikipedia. We will discuss how they were solved (or how we plan to solve them).
Forget about basic normalization theory or performance promises made by vendors in an ideal world. All topics discussed will be based on *actual problems* found when trying to handle the infrastructure of one of the top 10 most popular websites.
* Target audience: Developers using MySQL from any programming language; or system administrators, devops and architects in charge of the data model of its application
* Requirements: Basic SQL. Ability to read PHP. Basic familiarity with how wikis/Wikipedia works.
* Session dynamic: You are expected to contribute actively- it will not be a lecture format
* Topics (practical cases):
- Case #0: Pages and revisions
- Case #2: Supporting 290 languages
- Case #3: An abnormal denormalization
- Case #4: Key-value system
- Case #5: Revisions and deletions
- Case #6: What's links here
- Case #7: A large table
- Case #8: Anecdotes: The ghost tables and Timestamps
- Case #9: Slots

Crashworthiness Simulation In Ls Dyna Modified For Webapd3742
This document provides biographical information about Gary M. Johnson and summarizes an accident reconstruction he performed of a 2002 GMC Sierra truck. It details that a 79-year-old male driver lost control on an interstate onramp, struck a barrier, and then a tree, which resulted in his death. Data was retrieved from the vehicle that showed it was traveling about 23 mph at impact and information collected was used to simulate the crash in LS-Dyna software to compare the simulated damage to the actual vehicle damage.
The document provides an introduction to ASP.NET Web API and discusses key concepts related to web services and HTTP including:
1. Web API allows exposing data and services to different devices by taking advantage of full HTTP features like URIs, headers, caching, and supporting various content formats like XML and JSON.
2. SOAP and HTTP are common protocols for implementing web services, with SOAP using HTTP and XML for serialization and HTTP serving as a more lightweight alternative supporting any content over the protocol.
3. Key HTTP concepts discussed include requests, responses, status codes, headers, and the stateless nature of the protocol, with HTTP providing a standard for communication between client and server applications.
