Is the SSD optimizer in use – why always slower after a few months was used a laptop or NetBook? SSDs (solid state drives) are extremely fast. But why is this only for a short time? Why is a laptop or NetBook getting slower after a few months was used? The reason for this lies in the design of most PC operating systems that have been developed for traditional hard drives. They are however not designed to make optimal use of SSD and NAND Flash. For these drives, the drive performance over time deteriorated dramatically and this is due mainly to fragmentation. If there is free memory areas, which are distributed across the disk, the file system will split a file and write in fragments in these free areas. However, if free space is fragmented, so this results in NAND Flash easily to a slower write speed and extra I/O. Testing of SSDs from different vendors has determined the Diskeeper Corporation that by this fragmentation the Write speed up to 80% will affect. Under NTFS, for example, the widely used Windows file system, the writing speed while rising of I/O operations decreases significantly and quickly.

Under NTFS free space is fragmented relatively quickly within a few months. And even then the fragmentation increasing further. The write speed on such a system to the extent it decreases as fragmentation increases. Therefore new SSDs often initially create a write speed of 80 MB / s, but deteriorate after a few weeks at 35 MB / s. A few months later the speed reaches frightening 10 MB / s. This problem is exacerbated by the fact that the slow write performance affected also the startup time on the SSD drive. Also, the drive is strongly strained due to the additional write activity caused by the fragmentation, which leads to a shorter life.

Live demos in the breaks and a final discussion provide illustrative material and space for specific questions. Between theory and practice, it comes again to uncertainty on the part of the user. The concrete business process questions then, that applies to clarify it, we stand and answer anytime from the VOI.

3. also when complex components and tools of ECM application the steps must be compared to classical solutions much easier. 4. for all ECM functionality, a very clear at all levels and thus ergonomically beneficial user interface is required. There are 5 no discrepancies in the philosophy of ease allowed within the entire application”. 6. the user must have at any time in sight, at which point the whole process it is. To broaden your perception, visit David Zaslav.

7. There must be only a low learning curve even for rare or sporadic use of ECM application. 8. the work of the user is actively to support through intelligent search routines within the document world. 9.

the user must determine the pace of the work and should not be done by the system. 10. when the technical advancement of the ECM solution, there must be no compromise with the user orientation. According to these principles, the new version presented at the Congress has already been the d.velop solution d. 3 developed.

There is also the possibly somewhere located function of the webmaster. This complementary task structure, the security topic in practical everyday life loses a clear association with negative consequences for the real level of Web security. 3. Comprehensive test current security status: almost 500 different types of attacks with different exposure effect for Web applications are currently known. Therefore it requires analyses of complex penetration procedures where possible access risks be determined. Tools with an automated scanning of Web applications that provide a relatively comfortable way.

Their report provides concrete evidence of what hazards exist. Recommended especially for critical Web applications such as Internet stores additional structured Manual penetration testing, where at the same time the technical and organizational conditions of Web security to check. 4. Security processes into the change management integration: because Web applications are subject to continuous change through functional enhancements and technical innovations, a permanently fragile security situation can arise. For this reason, systematic safety measures as an integral part of the changes are necessary that both process as clearly shown in the responsibilities that need to be. Regularly new penetration testing among the basic obligations are by technical interventions in the Web applications, to determine possible security implications. 5.

Emergency management organize practical: even if optimal safety precautions were taken, problems in the face of the constant new attack methods can never be excluded. This will require the development of emergency scenarios with different levels of escalation to fast in case of need according to defined procedures and to be able to act effectively. The creation and maintenance of contingency plans is however not a one-time event. Rather, it is an ongoing process that can be useful to its complexity often only tool supported.

New goals with new partner since the end of March which is optimum datamanagement solutions GmbH in Karlsruhe (www.optimum-gmbh.de) official partner of MVTec, a leading international manufacturer of software solutions in image processing.

Social media in the contact center not yet critical to success of Tubingen, October 18, 2011 a very mixed picture results in a recent survey among Contact Center Manager at the last almato user forum in Stuttgart. On 6th and 7th October around 50 decision-makers of call and contact centers met in the Baden-Wurttemberg state capital to discuss for two days current issues in the industry. For seven years, invites the almato GmbH, a provider of solutions for real time interaction management and quality monitoring, each one in the autumn to this two-day Forum. Very mixed and inconsistent answers were the respondents, what concerns the perceived importance of the telephone customer service within the company. “” Is the proportion of those who believe that the contact center as unloved cost center “is perceived, exactly as big as the proportion of those who believe that the contact center as a real profit center” is seen. The Group of those who believe that are similarly that the contact center be considered as necessary, which must provide its customers with a company”or as important tools for customer satisfaction and marketing channel”. Much more agreement there is in assessing the future of the telephone customer service. About half of the respondents think that the phone also in future a significant role in the mix of different communication channels will be playing is.

Only a small minority thought that the telephone customer service will increase in importance. The Group of those who believe that new channels, such as, for example, social media, the phone will solve almost completely is equally small. Even if the near end of the telephone customer service is virtually daily proclaimed by numerous marketing and PR strategists, the reality looks but still quite different”, explains Peter s. Hall, Managing Director of almato GmbH. of course social media is a topic that the decision-makers concerned.

Extensive courses also again 2014 eoda R Academy celebrates 3 years and enjoys growing popularity new courses for users from industry and academia such as big data and Hadoop with R Kassel, 26.09.2013. That the free statistical language R also in German-speaking countries increasingly gaining popularity, has several reasons. In addition to commercial solutions such as SPSS, Stata, or SAS R comes increasingly to the analysis of small and large amounts of data for use in scientific institutes as well as in government agencies and companies. “We get more requests from institutions and companies in all industries who want to insert R for ad-hoc analysis or develop their business applications with R and analytical modules. The holistic nature of the R Academy training program enables to exploit the huge potential of R and employ profitably in the own environment. users”explains Heiko Miertzsch, CEO of eoda, the philosophy of the Academy of R. That the volume of data collected in all imaginable fields of application rises, now generally known. The rising tide of information offers the chance to generate new knowledge from the data.

Sometimes it is difficult with existing tools to have the relevant information to make decisions in a timely manner or by means of data mining to identify patterns and to create predictive analytics forecasts. In this environment, the free programming and statistical language R is one of the best options currently. Because in addition to the performance, quality, and the open source, also the possibilities of application integration for R speak character of the software. Also the leading database vendors have recognized this increasingly integrate R into the analysis layer. In addition, R offers many possibilities in the area of multivariate analysis methods. Cluster-, regression and factor analysis can be performed as well with R such as text mining and image analysis. R is ideally suited to creating interactive graphics.

Eoda prospects with the R Academy offers a broad and holistic Training program around the topics R and data analysis on. This offers the R Academy, one of the largest power spectrum with regard to opportunities for further education in the R environment in German-speaking countries. The offer ranges from beginners to programming classes, tailored to users, who already have experience in R, so that any prospective buyer find the right course. The R Academy eoda exists now for three years and could knowledge thus already numerous participants who use R in various application areas, and provide the maximum benefit in the use of R. The R Academy content constantly adapts to the requirements of the business environment, the latest statistical techniques and the growing applications of R. In addition to the application of classical statistical procedures, specific applications, such as the systematic quality controls or the automated reporting are two typical concrete applications of R. Also analysis of large databases (big data) as a further topic many users are on the agenda. Therefore R Academy will include five new courses 2014 the following: programming with R II reproducible research big data with Hadoop R with R applied statistics in quality management with R “after spreading seemingly slower R in Germany than in America or Asia, we feel rates further but a growing interest. We offer also advanced R users to an attractive offer. “, says Mahiskar. Of course the courses carried out already in the previous year as well as the introductory course offered regularly in 2014.
