This document discusses key aspects of data warehousing design and implementation including:
- Storing historical data in a separate environment from operational data with a different structure optimized for analysis.
- Dimensional data modeling using a star or snowflake schema to partition data into facts and dimensions.
- Extracting, transforming and loading data from source systems into the data warehouse through an ETL process.
- Designing OLAP cubes to allow for multi-dimensional reporting and analysis of the data.
- Developing reports and front-ends to allow users to access and analyze the data in the data warehouse.
The document provides details about the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. It describes Joseph Strauss, the chief engineer for the project. Key events included Strauss' proposal being approved in 1923, construction beginning in 1929, and the bridge opening ceremony in 1937. The bridge is 1.7 miles long, weighs over 887,000 tons, and was considered one of the greatest engineering achievements of the 20th century. Safety precautions during construction included the use of hard hats and respirators.
This document introduces 15 of the author's friends through short profiles. It describes how the author met each friend, how long they have known each other, shared activities and memories, and characterizes each person. Many of the author's friends they met through playing soccer or attending the same school and have known for 3-8 years. The friends provide each other with support, trust, and good memories.
This document summarizes a research paper that examines trends in working capital management and its impact on the performance of small manufacturing firms in Mauritius. It discusses how working capital management is important for business liquidity and profitability. The paper aims to analyze the relationship between working capital metrics like inventory days, receivables days, payables days, and cash conversion cycle on the profitability of 58 small manufacturing firms in Mauritius from 1998-2003. Specifically, it finds that higher investment in inventory and receivables is associated with lower profitability.
Exploring type-directed, test-driven development: a case study using FizzBuzzFranklin Chen
油
An expressive static type system is one of the most joyful and powerful tools for prototyping, designing, and maintaining programs. In this performance-theatrical presentation, I will provide a taste of how to use types, in conjunction with tests, to drive iterative development of a particular program, the famous FizzBuzz problem. We will solve generalizations of this problem, changing and adding requirements, to illustrate the pleasures and benefits of "type thinking".
The Scala language will be used as the vehicle for this demonstration, but the techniques apply immediately to any industrial-strength statically typed language, such as Haskell, OCaml, F#, Rust, and most recently, Swift.

Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system located about 500 million miles from the sun. It is composed of gases and cannot be walked on. The core is extremely hot, hotter than the sun, and Jupiter formed 4.5 billion years ago. Previous missions to Jupiter include the Pioneer 10 and 11 probes and the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft. Jupiter has over 60 moons and was formed along with the sun. The new proposed mission is called Journey Jupiter Jaguar which aims to collect gas samples from Jupiter using lights, wheels, and a robotic arm.
Socrative is an educational platform that allows teachers to engage students with activities on various devices. Teachers can pose questions to the class and see real-time responses, then receive detailed reports on student performance to personalize learning. The platform supports multiple choice questions, true/false, short answer, student voting, and competitive quizzes. Teachers can create, share, and import quizzes to assess student understanding.
This document discusses the opportunities and risks of using social media for businesses. It provides statistics on social media usage and examples of companies using social media platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter successfully. However, it also outlines the legal and compliance risks businesses need to consider, such as privacy, defamation and regulatory issues. It stresses the importance of having social media policies and training employees on proper usage.
Knowledge management requires investing in organizational culture, leadership, and tools to facilitate knowledge sharing. It allows organizations to be more competitive by accelerating innovation, reducing costs, and improving customer satisfaction. While challenging to implement due to issues like knowledge ownership, appropriate incentives and an open culture can overcome obstacles to create communities where knowledge is shared within and between organizations. Wikis are one tool that can help by allowing easy creation and editing of interlinked web pages.
A unique Operations Management Business Simulation training course, it probably is the only one focused on Service Operations Management which is extremely rigorous, intensive and knowledge driven with Key operational concepts such as line balancing, forecasting, capacity planning etc. are covered apart from people aspects such as performance management, succession planning etc. Recently launched the AOM Experience- a unique e learning course on the basics of service operations is based on the principle of gamified learning and incorporates learning from peers.

The document discusses images taken for a college magazine. Groups experimented with different camera angles like close ups and high or low angles. Some images are blurry as a hand held camera was used instead of a tripod. Photoshop will be used to edit the images to enhance them for the magazine, as not all images taken will fit. The task was experimental and a learning experience, and future photo shoots will be better planned regarding lighting and varied images.

This document discusses strategies a contractor can take if a project owner files for bankruptcy. It provides information on the automatic stay in bankruptcy and how it prevents creditors from taking actions against the debtor's estate. It also discusses executory contracts and how they are treated in bankruptcy. The document advises contractors to seek relief from the automatic stay to protect their claims. It also recommends contractors continue protecting their claims through mechanic's liens, which may relate back before the bankruptcy filing date. The document also discusses avoidable preference actions and strategies to mitigate preference liability, such as obtaining perfected lien rights or arguing the payments were made in the ordinary course of business.
