Use Every item a country imports or exports must have a statistical value associated with it when it passes through customs. The statistical value is the net domestic value (fair market value) of a product when it crosses a border. (The fair market value is the price the product is normally sold at in the manufacturer's domestic market.) This value is needed for each exported or imported item

I had to write one data import/export utility that moved data from one database to another. Once I was finished the first round of coding I found one thing that needed refactoring - the import/export process wasn't generalized. It was part of importer/exporter utility main class (it was console application). After some refactoring I got some common things to use in other tasks like this. My main

As an entrepreneur, your idea of the business needs to be complemented with your sensitivity to the demands of the creative team.ANYONE who has watched music channels in the late 1990s will recall the MTV Lift Man. It was a 70-plusyear-old man, with a horrible set of teeth, standing in a iron-grilled lift, cursing MTV in a raspy voice. Does “Mad in India” and “Blousefull” ring a bell? It did for Amitabh Bachchan. The Lift Man’s popular impact was so widespread that at a social event, the actor who played the part was recognised by Big B himself. That’s when everybody knew that the ‘dentally-challenged’ actor had made his mark. Before the promo was aired, however, few were sure of its success. The promo was not a raving hit. Creative director Cyrus Oshidar says, “There was

Hannaford supermarkets has been alerting their customers that there has been a data breach of credit card and debit card numbers.  The statement that they’ve released made an emphatic point to let the public know that the information breach concerns those numbers alone, and does not extend to other personal information such as names and addresses, which Hannaford does not collect.  And good for them, too: personal data collection and retention was one of the root problems following the TJX data breach a little over a year ago.   Hannaford has also pointed out that they’re using the latest encryption protocols which are in compliance with PCI.  In fact, they were certified as PCI compliant last year and recertified just this past February.  However, 4.2 million

I am no NAND flash chip expect but I know enough to see that 15-nm processes and 100Gbit NAND flash chips are an amazing step forward in technology. This kind of tech is said to be 4 years away and Toshiba's 15-nm processes can allow for production of a 100Gbit NAND flash chip which is mind blowing compared to the 16Gbit chips due in 2008 (made from 50-nm and 52-nm processes). This means much better hardware for us consumers in the next decade. Via The Inquirer Written by Daniel for Product ReviewsIn Sections: Computer Hardware, Computers

A few days ago I came across some processes on one of our servers that just wouldn’t die. Even after doing a kill -9 and all that good stuff, more would just keep spawing until there were dozens running on the machine. A head system admin of ours gave me this command, which will mass-kill all alike processes so they don’t have a chance to re-spawn each other. The processes running were all some form of “init_”, like init_1, init_13, etc. To kill these: ps aux |grep init_ |awk ‘{print $2}’ |awk ‘{print “kill -9 ” $1}’ | sh -v The ‘grep init_’ should reflect the common name of all the processes.

CryoPID is an application that allows you to capture the state of a running process in Linux and save it to a file. You can use this file to resume the process later on, either after a reboot or even on another machine. Both x86 and x86_64 are supported and you can get sources for these platforms accordingly here and here. Ubuntu users can use aptitude or apt-get to install this utility (sudo aptitude install cryopid). After installation program freeze will be available allowing you to suspend process(es) into a file(s) and resume them later. The file you capture process' state to is self-executing, so to resume process it’s enough to run that file. One of the major features is that fact that freeze can be run by regular user (not root) and doesn't need any kernel modifications. Here is common cryopid usage example: let’s imagine you use MUTT that has thousands e-mails indexed that you don't want to be closed and re-indexed. But at the same time you may want to start so

As it comes from htop’s manual page, htop is free (GPL) ncurses-based process viewer, that is similar to top, but allows to scroll the list vertically and horizontally to see all processes and their full command lines. Tasks related to processes (killing, renicing) can be done without entering their PIDs. I found this utility very useful and powerful in my everyday working process. Here is the comparison between htop and oldie top (taken from htop’s site): In 'htop' you can scroll the list vertically and horizontally to see all processes and complete command lines. In 'top' you are subject to a delay for each unassigned key you press (especially annoying when multi-key escape sequences are triggered by accident). 'htop' starts faster ('top' seems to collect data for a while before displaying anything). In 'htop' you don't need to type the process number to kill a process, in 'top' you do. In 'htop' you don't need to type the process n

One of the things I do all the time in XP, 2000, and 2003 is use the RunAs command. It comes in handy when you are running as a limited user, and need to fire up a process as an administrator.Here is the typical command line sequencec:> Runas /user:intelliadminadministrator notepad.exeEnter the password for intelliadminadministrator: *********Attempting to start notepad.exe for user intelliadminadministratorThen notepad launches under my administrator account, instead of the current user.This works great under those operating systems. I can run as a limited user, and when I want I can launch a command line window, or any other program as an administrator.Unfortunately it doesn't work the same in Vista. Yes - the RunAs command works perfectly fine. But because of the way UAC works it does not give me full administrative access. Why? Because when I launch another process as an administrator it still needs to be elevated.If you have not used Vista yet I will explain. All users by defa

Have you ever wanted to monitor some processes on your system using a Bash script? Well, I have had to many times. Usually I’m running a script or program that is processing large amounts of data and I want to keep an eye on it’s progress. Well, it’s actually quite easy. Peaking At Processes The foundation of this is the ps command, which will report a snapshot of the current processes. You can look at the man page to get an idea of all the options you have for listing processes. If you know the PID (process ID) of what you want to monitor then you can run the command like this: ps up <PID> The u option specifies to display in a user-oriented format. The p allows you to specify the PID of whichever process you would like listed. And of course you would substitute <PID> with the actual numeric PID. Of course I usually like to keep an eye on several different processes, who’s PIDs I may not actually know. In that case what I do is get a listing of all

Overview Disabling background processes in Windows XP is one of the steps necessary to improve the performance of your computer. Many of the programs which run behind the scenes are important system applications. On the other hand, many of them are not needed at all but still run whenever the computer is on. They can waste memory which could be used for other things and pose security risks. This article explains how to get to your list of services and disable the ones which most people rarely use. Included are explanations of the needless Windows XP background processes and why they are probably not useful. How To Get To The List of Services 1) Click 'Start' 2) Click 'Run' 3) In the box that says 'Open:' type the following: services.msc 4) Hit 'Enter' This will open up the list of background processes. How To Disable An Item From The List 1) Click the item once to highlight it. 2) Right-click the item to pull down

Book DescriptionThe purpose, level, and style of this new edition conform to the tenets set forth in the original preface. The authors continue with their tack of developing simultaneously theory and applications, intertwined so that they refurbish and elucidate each other.The authors have made three main kinds of changes. First, they have enlarged on the topics treated in the first edition. Second, they have added many exercises and problems at the end of each chapter. Third, and most important, they have supplied, in new chapters, broad introductory discussions of several classes of stochastic processes not dealt with in the first edition, notably martingales, renewal and fluctuation phenomena associated with random sums, stationary stochastic processes, and diffusion theory. About the AuthorHoward E. Taylor is a research chemist with the National Research Program, Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey located in Boulder, Colorado. Dr. Taylor has played a major role over t

When you shut down Windows, XP gives each process, service, or application 20 seconds to close before the operating system turns off the computer. If the process, service, or application doesn't shut down within 20 seconds, a dialog box appears, prompting you to either wait 20 more seconds, immediately end the process, service, or application, or cancel shutdown.If this dialog box appears frequently, you might be running an application, service, or process that often takes more than 20 seconds to close. To solve the problem, you can increase the amount of time that XP waits to display the dialog box so that the dialog box will no longer appear. To do so, run the Registry Editor and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktop. Look for the String value WaitToKillAppTimeout.

In general, a quality process is one designed to manage quality by the application of quality assurance (methods, standards), quality control (measurement and correction), and quality improvement (process improvement). More specifically, a quality process is a process of conducting any of the above. Bollywood

its this one liner: kill -HUP `ps -A -ostat,ppid,pid,cmd | grep -e '^[Zz]' | awk '{print $2}'` explanation: list all processes, show me the good stuff, like stat[e] p[arent]pid, pid, and c[om]m[an]d Then, send the output to grep, because I only want the lines that start with a Z or z . Now let's restart the parent processes and shake out the zombie generation. Found here

I read with fascination and horror a recent posting by Bennett Hasleton, a freelance programmer based in Seattle who also happens to maintain the Web site and mailing lists for a group called.That organization advocates for freedom of speech for and against censorship of younger people (who, perhaps coincidentally, are typically too young to vote). The organization has provided useful information for numerous anti-censorship campaigns and lawsuits, some of which have been successful.  But that’s another story entirely.  The recent posting by Mr. Hasleton’s that thrilled and chilled me appears at Slashdot.org, and is entitled It basically lays out how easy it is to find active, working credit card numbers online. The article also lays out how easy it would be for the credit card companies to curtail or eliminate the problem, via simple alterations of business processes and perhaps a Perl script or two.  That’s not the chilling part, though. The chilling part is that

In this post we're continuing on exploring the Windows Task Manager. We already looked at the Applications tab and the Processes tab, now we'll go through the last two tabs: Performance and Networking.The Performance tab is a little confusing with all kinds of monitors like Physical Memory, Commit Charge, and Kernel Memory. What the hell does all that mean? Well, let's do the easy part first: CPU Usage. This is simply a graphical view of your current CPU usage, nothing special. You'll see it spike here and there, especially if you open a program or something similar.The next two graphs are referred to as "PF Usage" and "Page File Usage History", but this is misleading because it doesn't actually refer to the amount of your page file being used, but is the commit charge. So what is the commit charge? Well the Total Commit Charge is actually the current amount of RAM (physical memory) and virutal memory being used. It's a combination of both! You'll notice under physical memory, I

Ok, so continuing on from the previous post about ending Programs in Task Manager, now we're going to hit on what the Processes tab lets us do.Now we ended off saying that if your program does not die by click the End Task button on the Applications tab, then you can right click on the program and choose "Go to process". This will bring you to the Processes tab, which is actually the executable that is running in Windows for that particular program.The process that is running that program is automatically highlighted when you choose the go to process option. The Process tab gives you more detailed information on every process running on the system, whether it be a user process or a system process. The Image Name is the name of the process, User Name is whether it is a user process or a windows xp process, CPU is the percentage of the processor time that particular application is taking up, and Mem Usage is how much of your computer's memory is being taken up.Now to really kill the pr

Have you ever had a program freeze on you and that refuses to close or disappear? One of the biggest pains is when a poorly written application crashes and dies trying to take down everything with it! I hate those applications! Or maybe you've noticed that your computer is suddenly running supremely slow, but there's no major processing going on that you can see visibly (open apps, etc)? In that case, you might have a process running on your system that is hogging all of the CPU time or taking up loads and loads of memory.Well, the Windows Task Manager can help you out in some of these situations to help determine the cause and get rid of the problem application. First off, the Task Manager's purpose in life is to provide computer performance information along with details about currently running programs and processes. It also provides the ability to monitor your network traffic if you are connected to a network.So let's get started with learning about this very useful tool in Win

Nearly 60% of U.S. businesses and government agencies report they don’t have the information or the technology to deal with insider threats to their network, according to a new study. The research, done by the Ponemon Institute, also shows that 58% still rely on manual controls to audit and control user access to [...]

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is of the opinion that there is a basic difference between the direct appointment process carried out by the KPK and what was done by the Justice and Human Rights Department when Yusril Ihza Mahendra was in charge."KPK is brave enough to be responsible for this," said Johan Budi, KPK spokesperson, yesterday (17/2).On Thursday (15/2), the KPK asked Yusril for a tatement regarding the direct appointment of fingerprint detection devices worth Rp16 billion which he approved.

On 12/8/05, Dr. Tom Rogers and Jim Velos of The Rogers Group (www.drtomrogers.com), interviewed me on their Voice America Business channel program: Business Dis-eases: Cure Them or Die. The direct link to the interview is: http://voiceamerica.com/common/check.php?url=http://wm.kinodigital.na-central. speedera.net/wm. kinodigital.na-central/surfnetmediagroup/01018 Rogers120805.wma. The URL for Voice America's Business channel is www.business.voiceamerica.com. This post summarizes the 45 minute interview. I've also added comments not included in the interview due to time constraints. TOPIC #1: REFERENCES−WHAT SHOULD OR CAN A BUSINESS SAY ABOUT A FORMER EMPLOYEE? What most businesses fear is being sued for slander, libel or defamation. Generally, a business is legally protected for speaking the truth and providing a good faith assessment of job performance. Nevertheless, it's in the defense of these lawsuits where legal expenses pile up. Therefore, avoidanc

Although the program has proven wildly successful in many different cases, other companies have tried to implement the Six Sigma system with results that can best be described as mixed. A large part of the “mixed” (and you can read that as “negative”!) results can be attributed to an improper implementation of the Six Sigma [...]
