Bullying is a real issue that we face today. It can cause emotional problems for the victims, and the bully must live with the guilt of their actions, as well as other consequences. There are many laws concerning bullying, making most forms of it illegal (in Canada). Also, many forms of bullying may also require other activities that are illegal (theft, illegal possession of a weapon, hate crime, harassment to the point of fear of safety, etc), which could possibly end the bully up with severe consequences like imprisonment and a tarnished permanent record. Also, to those that think that bullying can make them popular or cool, it actually can't. By definition, "popular" means that "regarded with favor, approval, or affection by people in general" (via dictionary.reference.com) , or in simpler terms, "popular" means that you are liked by many people. As a bully, you will not be liked by that many people, and therefore, cannot be popular. As for being cool, coolness is dependent on the fact that your group thinks you're cool. If you don't have a group, they can't think you're cool, and therefore, you will be forever uncool. And even if you are a bully for other reasons, the consequences will still be the same.  Not very pleasant to have to live with for the rest of your life, is it? To those who witness bullying, report it. You probably don't wanna be thought of as the "snitch", so do it anonymously. If your school/organization has an anonymous online bullying reporting service, use it. You can also see your superior (teacher, boss, etc) after class or at work to report it, but if you do so, make sure they're trustworthy. You wouldn't want the word to leak out. You could even leave a note with them (on their desk or something) addressing the issue when no one is looking, or send them a message from a throwaway account (email, Twitter, etc). Bullies must be stopped, and without them, the world would be a much better place. If you attend ÉSC Saint-Charles-Garnier, you may complete a form to report bullying anonymously.

Suppose that there are two types of workers: type H and type L. Type H workers are more productive than type L workers and type H workers find it less costly to obtain a given level of education e. Specifically, the marginal products of labor for each type of worker is: $$m_H(e) = a_H e$$ $$m_L(e) = a_L e,$$ where \(a_L < a_H\) are constants. And the costs to each type of obtaining a given level of education \(e\) is: $$c_H(e) = k_H e^2$$ $$c_L(e) = k_L e^2,$$ where \(k_L > k_H\). A worker's type is only observable by the worker but the amount of education a worker obtains is observed by a potential employer. So while a worker's wage cannot depend directly on that worker's type, the wage can be a function of that worker's chosen level of education. We consider two classes of equilibria: Pooling and separating.
A pooling equilibrium in ths model is a threshold value of education \(\bar{e}\) such that:
A pooling equilibrium in ths model is a threshold value of education \(\bar{e}\) such that:
For the animated figures above, I used the following parameter values: \(\alpha_L = 4\), \(\alpha_H = 8\), \(k_L = 0.5\), \(k_H = 0.25\), and \(p = 0.25\). For the pooling equilibrium animation, I computed equilibria for \(e \in[0,19]\). And for the separating equilibrium animation, I computed equilibria for \(e \in[0,34]\). The Python code that I used to create these animations is available in this Github repository.


This is a presentation about Material Design in Web
During presentation we will talk about available Web libraries and frameworks that can help to build Material Design Web sides
My name is Valentyn Shybanov, I am Cloud/Web Google Developer Expert and working as Software Architect in Twinfield, Walter Kluwers
I like to make nice animated presentations with DaCSSlide library (https://github.com/olostan/dacsslide)
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to talk about Cloud and Web<EMAIL_ADDRESS>First library is Polymer that highly utilize power of Web Components
It has "paper elements" that fully implements Material Design concept. It is most complete implementation of Material Design Web Components
However there is a great framework for real big and "serious" web applications: Angular!
And it brings Angular.Material library that is fully Angular-native (not wrapper) and also embrace mostly all Angular Material
But if you would like to use Material Design without Polymer or Angular
You can use MDL - simple library that use BEM for specifying components
Another alternative, not from Google is MUI
Really tiny library that is very quick and gives you good Material flavour
If you would like to use something more reactive
You can use 'material ui' - quite full library of Material Components
It is based on ReactJS library
But if you are old-style JS developer and still liek to use jQuery
You can use Materialize library
Here are some links where you can start diving into Material Design Word
And here how you can contact me and check sources of this presentation
Thanx!

The use of virtual reality technology, especially for remote control
of machinery or for apparent participation in distant events, has a number of negative connotations.
Just because there are some negative things associated with collaborative telepresence does not mean people should completely avoid the use of such technologies
Collaborative Telepresence is impactful in many areas namely:

On the search page , enter your business ID in the search query. If there is a company ID, you will be taken directly to the company information website.
On the search page , paste a portion of your company name into your search. Search displays a list of all companies that contain the search string. If you have an active license, your search will also include your email, website, and phone number if stored in our database. With a license, you can also export your search to a CSV file and use it in Excel.
You can find companies in the catalog with regard to their business. We use NACE categories to browse and search for companies that have the same or similar activity to yours. Our catalog is sorted by our internal rating system. You can see your ratings either on the search page or on your company profile page.
Our main mission is to combine available data from various sources. This project was created at hackathone #hackujstat , where we found many interesting data sources. We have downloaded all available data and analyzed which data contains valid business references. We have linked this data to the company profile page as well as a link to the original data source. We regularly monitor the newspaper's website. With the live data feed, you can see the latest news. We combined the news source with company or directors information, so if a manager is listed in the reports, you can easily view the reports on the company profile page.
Unfortunately server traffic and website development is not the cheapest thing to do. Advertising revenue for webmasters has a decreasing tendency as more and more people use ad-block. We do not consider using alternative earning methods as dragging cryptomen against the background of the page to be moral and effective, so we have decided that some parts of the page are locked. If you want to support this project of state data monitoring, business information aggregation and print monitoring, we would be very pleased if you buy at least a basic subscription. We believe that the price of less than 900 CZK per month is acceptable for anyone who wants to support us. He will receive the following benefits from him as a reward:
With a higher subscription, download our datasets and more daily and monthly media monitoring reports, and live media monitoring.
After purchasing at least the Fin Personal license, the user will see an advanced filter when searching. In addition to the standard search by company ID or by company name, licensed can also be filtered by:
With this license, you can also use this filter to export contact data to Excel.
After purchasing at least a Fin Personal license, the user will be able to export the data to a CSV format, which can be imported or opened in a spreadsheet, such as MS Excel, when searching. This export saves the first 1000 rows by the specified filter, sorted by our internal rating system . In addition to the company name and company ID, we also export the value of our internal rating in rating and maxrating format, where the overall quality of the company can be expressed as a proportion of these numbers. Rating 100% means the best quality company. A rating of 80% means that 20% of companies in the Czech Republic were rated higher. In addition to this information, the company's main website, main email and main phone contact are also exported if we have this information about the company.
Our main mission is to combine available data from various sources, such as the state. This project was created at hackathone #hackujstat , where we found a lot of interesting data sources and we created a system to automatically download and process new datasets that published by the state. We process this data contextually and aggregate it according to its importance - for example, invoices, orders, contracts, business lists and so on. After purchasing a license at least Fin Premium, we allow these aggregated data to be downloaded. Output in CSV format in UTF-8 encoding is compressed via gzip. Data is available for download at our datasets .
In our system, you can manage users who have access to the features of the purchased license. If you are a License Administrator, click the "Manage Users" button in the License Overview . You can add new users to the list as either other administrators or standard users. Administrators can manage users, and licenses must still have at least one administrator. Administrators and standard users can use all license functions - Use locked features, exports, or print monitoring.
We monitor selected websites that have a media impact on the population. We analyze the text of each article and create a contextual overview of the reports that can be seen, for example, on the Media Monitoring page . If you purchase at least the Fin PREMIUM license, we will allow you to watch these reports live. After you set a keyword or term on the LIVE media monitoring page, we'll send you a link to the new message as soon as we analyze it and detect that it contains the term you entered. Monitoring does not depend on diacritics and we do not decline keywords, but you can use only part of a word, for example, without the suffix. If you support our service, in the future we plan to process the inflection to make it easier. However, this requires additional cost of computing power and personnel linguistic resources.
We monitor selected websites that have a media impact on the population. We analyze the text of each article and create a contextual overview of the news that can be made by videos, for example, on the Media Monitoring page. If you purchase at least Fin PERSONAL license from 900 CZK / month, we will enable you to set up keywords or expression on the page Media monitoring - daily report . We generate the report at 8:00 am so you can view the reports for the morning coffee. Monitoring is not dependent on diacritics and we do not declare keywords. Currently, you need to enter an entire expression that can consist of up to 3 words. If you support our service, in the future we plan to process the inflection to make it easier. However, this requires additional cost of computing power and personnel linguistic resources.
Monthly media monitoring works the same as daily monitoring , but the report is sent at half-night in the morning of the new month and includes the entire previous month. If the report contains too many links, only the last 500 messages are displayed. Tracking terms are set up on the Media Monitoring Monthly Report page. If you support our service, in the future we plan to process the inflection to make it easier. However, this requires additional cost of computing power and personnel linguistic resources.
You can set up the incoming webhook for your slack environment, and we will post to your channel the latest news for your keywords as they occurre in the media. You can set up your webhook in LIVE monitor editor. You can set up webhooks for your slack according to this tutorial.
The Slack integration is set up in LIVE Keywords setup. You can append the channel name after the address.

Our internal algorithm evaluates the quality of every Czech company. On the basis of public data we examine the interconnection of companies with state institutions and evaluate their economic stability. If a company has a higher share capital, or if the company has been on the market longer, or specializes in a specific activity, it has a higher rating than another company. Every Czech company is assigned a rating in our system, and the algorithm ranks companies according to this rating. In the categories of activities we classify companies according to their rating. A business rating is available to download business export options for advanced filtering or as a dataset .

The past decade has seen a cross-disciplinary push for researchers to leverage participatory approaches that facilitate stakeholder engagement and improve the development of collective management strategies. Geospatial technologies are well suited to enhance participatory best practices by offering stakeholders a suite of tools to investigate and better understand spatial interactions across multiple scales. However, the use of specialized computational environments can represent a barrier to understanding of complex problems for both professionals and the lay public participants, thus impeding the discussion of competing interests and perspectives. Tangible Landscape, a free and open source collaborative geospatial modeling environment, was used in this study to engage a group of role-played stakeholders and explore alternative ideas on how to manage a forest disease, sudden oak death (SOD), caused by the invasive generalist pathogen Phytophthora ramorum. Tangible Landscape provided the degree of information density and realism needed for roleplaying stakeholders to 1) quickly and intuitively learn the salient details of a complex epidemiological spread model 2) virtually place participants into the landscape and allow their decision making to be geographically and contextually informed, 3) quickly developing and testing alternative management strategies, often by observing and learning from other participants, and 4) receive near-real time feedback as to the efficacy of their actions over time. We argue that tangible geospatial modeling frameworks offer novel, intuitive, and creative ways to quickly explore alternative ideas on how to manage a disease and place stakeholders in a powerful shared environment for communicating with each other and solving problems.

JUDGE DREDD A film review by Sue Roberts Copyright 1995 Sue Roberts
Directed by Danny Cannon Starring Sylvester Stallone, Armand Assante, Diane Lane, Rob Schneider.
If only Fritz Lang could see this picture. He would be thrilled with the modern METROPOLIS. Exaggerated angles, individual lines of dialog, (one could almost see the speech bubbles) and a dangerous pace all conspire to make this the first film to bring the art form of comic illustration to the screen. One could feel every line of the drawings leaping to life.
Sly Stallone obviously enjoyed working on this one and indulged in some serious timing on the humour. It says a lot for his performance that he competed with the scale of production design and won.
Cannon certainly kept the pages turning! I waited ninety minutes for them to get to the quiet bit and it never came. At the culmination I had only one question: "Er, excuse me, is that IT!!! Well do, you think we could just run the sequel NOW?"

In this Coach me session, you have learnt the following about business combinations exemptions:
|
- Not required to restate prior business combinations accounted for under a standard different from IFRS applicable at the date of reporting.
- Still need to eliminate assets and liabilities that do not meet the recognition criteria under IFRS outside of a business combination (adjustment to retained earnings except in case of intangible assets then corresponding adjustment to goodwill).
- Test goodwill in opening IFRS statement of financial position for impairment.
That completes this Coach me session. Click on another Coach me session or click Close. |

1 Weird Old Tip to Punch The Monkey Now, My Lord? The Answer Will Shock You!
By Armitage Shanks - 16th December 2015
But they had not gone twenty yards when they stopped short. An uproar of voices was coming from the farmhouse. They rushed back and looked through the window again. Yes, a violent quarrel was in progress. There were shoutings, bangings on the table, sharp suspicious glances, furious denials. The source of the trouble appeared to be that Napoleon and Mr. Pilkington had each played an ace of spades simultaneously.
Twelve voices were shouting in anger, and they were all alike. No question, now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.
Welcome to the Perth Parkour Blog
By Armitage Shanks - 10th December 2015
That evening Squealer explained privately to the other animals that Napoleon had never in reality been opposed to the windmill. On the contrary, it was he who had advocated it in the beginning, and the plan which Snowball had drawn on the floor of the incubator shed had actually been stolen from among Napoleon's papers. The windmill was, in fact, Napoleon's own creation. Why, then, asked somebody, had he spoken so strongly against it? Here Squealer looked very sly. That, he said, was Comrade Napoleon's cunning. He had SEEMED to oppose the windmill, simply as a manoeuvre to get rid of Snowball, who was a dangerous character and a bad influence. Now that Snowball was out of the way, the plan could go forward without his interference. This, said Squealer, was something called tactics. He repeated a number of times, "Tactics, comrades, tactics!" skipping round and whisking his tail with a merry laugh. The animals were not certain what the word meant, but Squealer spoke so persuasively, and the three dogs who happened to be with him growled so threateningly, that they accepted his explanation without further questions.

Abstract:
Today's executives and information workers want to use mobile devices to get at their business information, make critical decisions, and thrive. Let's help them get there with SQL Server Reporting Services and SharePoint. Tablets are common place now, and smart phones have been in place for years, but have we devoted enough attention to make effective use of the new form factors? Let's discuss how our design approach changes when we want to launch mission-critical dashboards and reports on smaller screen sizes using touch-screen technology. We'll look at iPad and other mobile devices, SSRS and SharePoint, BI Developer and Business User, with emphasis on data visualization best practices.
Speaker(s): Angel Abundez,
Abstract:
The SQLOS component is an internal user mode OS enrichment layer for SQL Server that delivers necessary system level services such as co-operative user mode scheduling, memory management, deadlock detection and exception handling to SQL Server components. One of the investments we made for SQL Server 2012 is to refactor the Memory Manager subcomponent in SQLOS to allow users to predictably size the SQL Server memory consumption in addition to performance scalability improvements. Come learn about what this change means for sizing memory for workloads in SQL Server 2012. You will also hear about related DMV and performance counter changes for this improvement.
Speaker(s): Gus Apostol,
Abstract:
This session will present a Database and ETL Architecture that allows you to smoothly move data from your application databases across the enterprise in real-time to your data warehouse. Carlos Bossy will show you how to use SQL Server features such as Replication, Change Data Capture, SSIS and other techniques to extract, transform and load data fast and dependably and view a real demonstration of the system in action. Finally, Carlos will show how to use Reporting Services to present data with a minimum amount of latency.
Speaker(s): Carlos Bossy,
Abstract:
PowerPivot took end users a long way towards creating some amazing self-service data models that we are starting to find are very valuable to the business. Now how do we take these models to the next level and truly allow enterprise access to something that may have just lived in a team site previously? This is where the new features of Business Intelligence Semantic Models (BISM) come into play. We will take a BISM model from its baseline roots of a PowerPivot and drive it to the enterprise level showcasing partitioning, security, and hierarchies while explaining how these will come into play in a real world business scenario.
Speaker(s): Tom Marek,
Abstract:
SharePoint is to be hosted on your SQL farm... Now what? In this session, we will cover the basic need to know for SQL administrators who are now responsible for SharePoint's DBs. In our journey, topics we will cover will be, Farm sizing's architecture to considerations for Enterprise Search and considerations for crawling the dreaded G:\, H:\ Z:\ drives, To the myriad of SharePoint Databases and which to watch out for. And finally what tasks in SharePoint are the heavy weights in terms of IOPS, CPU RAM.
Speaker(s): Andrew Thornton-Smith,
Abstract:
Having implemented BI solutions for years, I have found documentation to be a task too often resisted until late in the project, when it is hastily and incompletely prepared in remaining hours. Because the integrated Microsoft BI solution comprises multiple application layers, it is challenging to generate documentation about the whole solution in a single, unified document. In this presentation I will share approaches I’ve come to use in assembling documentation that “covers all the bases.”
Speaker(s): William E Pearson III,
Abstract:
SQL Server 2012 has made it easier to make the move to Business Intelligence and in this session Carlos Bossy will present three new features you can (and should) implement immediately. The new Analytics functions in T-SQL, Columnstore indexes, and the Tabular model are powerful features that will give your users the ability to analyze data in a faster, more effective manner. Each of these features was targeted at casual or beginning BI developers and DBAs who more familiar with traditional relational database models. You will leave this session with a good understanding of the next steps to take to get on the fast-track to BI.
Speaker(s): Carlos Bossy,
Abstract:
Don’t miss this useful six pack of production-quality, system-level stored procedures. Source code is fully documented, and contains many valuable tips for querying SQL Server system views. The author will demonstrate each utility, and offer suggestions for extending it.
Speaker(s): Tom Kallal,

Got data that is a mess that you have been asked to clean up before loading into your data warehouse? Come learn from this demo packed session the various components and techniques in SSIS for cleaning messy data including removing duplicates, removing unwanted characters and words. Become less "fuzzy" about the cleansing powers of fuzzy grouping and fuzzy lookups.
Speaker(s): Amy Lewis,
Abstract:
Whether we inherit our Analysis Services environments from predecessors or create them - learning as we go - ourselves, we often conclude that performance (processing and / or querying) and functionality can be enhanced. In this session, Microsoft BI Architect and SQL Server MVP Bill Pearson overviews ways to launch new capabilities, and to propel performance beyond its current plateau, using design best practices to better meet consumer performance and functional needs. This is the initial session of a set of detailed Best Practices presentations.
Speaker(s): William E Pearson III,
Abstract:
In a customer service based business world the newest feature being offered to clients in many industries is access to their data for ad hoc analytics. Agile players in many industries are stealing away market share because of this additional feature they can offer and in turn is forcing big players in every industry to just keep up to hold their ground. SQL Server 2012 will be in the middle of this battle and will give us the ability to deliver this feature without building the entire system from scratch. This feature is brought to us by using the new Power View and Business Intelligence Semantic Model all surfaced using SharePoint 2010. *** This session will be co-presented by Jacob Wilson who is a SharePoint MCM ***
Speaker(s): Tom Marek,
Abstract:
According to Itzik Ben-Gan: “Windowing functions are the best thing to happen since sliced bread”. In SQL Server 2005, Microsoft introduced SQL Windowing into Transact-SQL with new ranking functions and existing aggregate functions. This gave the Transact-SQL developer the ability to easily generate row numbers and compute sums, averages, etc. while returning detailed data rows. But the ANSI/ISO SQL standard had defined additional windowing functionality and SQL Server 2012 now supports more of it. This includes the ability to frame the scope of the window and new functions like LAG, LEAD, FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE. These enhancements extend the set-based functionality of Transact-SQL.
Speaker(s): Jeff Jones,
Abstract:
Are you interested in becoming certified in SQL Server? Do you already hold a SQL certification and wonder about getting certified in the new program? In this session, David ikeda will provide an overview of the certifications and training offered by Microsoft for SQL Server 2012. We’ll discuss the value of being certified, and then discuss the different certifications, upgrade paths and the related training options offered by Microsoft Learning.
Speaker(s): David Ikeda,
Abstract:
In this session, you’ll learn how to configure and implement SQL Server AlwaysOn Availability groups. We’ll explore the architecture, concepts, and steps for configuring High Availability in SQL Server 2012
Speaker(s): David Ikeda,
Abstract:
Dynamic MDX can be a great way to reuse, reduce, and recycle .rdls and simplify report maintenance. Have a lot of reports that are practically the same, minus a few pesky exceptions? Dynamic MDX could be the answer! In this session we’ll walk through how to create a basic .rdl that can support a variety of MDX queries that will be generated dynamically. We will also discuss the pros and cons of this approach so that you can make an informed decision of when and if Dynamic MDX is the solution for you.
 How did we get here? Why is the level of SQL literacy so low? There are two goals in the session.  Second, we will talk about how to encourage co-workers to write better SQL. Looking at stupid SQL can help even experienced programmers as we examine why something is wrong.
Speaker(s): Mark Bosley,
Abstract:
The XML Functionality embedded into SQL Server 2005 and 2008 is one of its most powerful yet least understood features. This seems to be primarily because DBA's shy away from it and developers prefer to work with XML in their code. In this session we will explore the XML features of SQL Server and how we can bridge these two worlds. Topics covered will include retrieving relational data as XML, storing XML in the database using the XML Datatype, XML indexes, and the XQuery functions included in SQL Server. We will also look at using XML as stored procedure parameters as a way to pass large amounts of complex data between client and server.
Speaker(s): Randy Knight,
Abstract:
Reporting Services is a powerful tool that can make designing reports a snap...most of the time. But every once in a while you have to format a report very specifically, and that starts with your data query. In this session, we'll think outside the group! Learn about how to use named sets, dummy members, and other MDX tricks to craft your queries in a way that allows you to conquer the trickiest report layouts.
Speaker(s): Erika Bakse,
Abstract:
Facts and Dimensions are the essence of any Data Warehouse, but there are many other components required to make the environment scalable, flexible and fully automated. There are lots of decisions to be made: Should you have a separate database for staging or not? How do you fully automate the ETL sub-system and parameterize it? In this session we will discuss a practical approach to designing the Data Warehouse back-end, based on personal experience.
Speaker(s): Martin Schoombee,
Abstract:

Speaker(s): Jeff Renz,
Abstract:
Being a database professional can be a thankless job. No one thinks about the database when it works well. So how do you get the proper recognition when performance review time rolls around? How do you distinguish yourselves among your peers? This session will cover 6 things you can focus on to ace your next performance review!
Speaker(s): Wil Sisney,
Abstract:
Data vault is a compelling new architecture for an enterprise data warehouse. Star schema data warehouses are the most well-known design pattern in the industry. Are hub, link and satellite tables your cup of tea or are you more of a fact and dimension type of person? Come with an open mind to our session and cast your vote for the architecture that you prefer. No matter which way you vote, you will come away with a deeper understanding of the data vault and star schema architectures, the pros and cons of both, and new implementation techniques to leverage new features of SQL Server 2012.
Speaker(s): Jeff Renz,
Abstract:
In today's enterprise environments, it is becoming increasingly necessary to integrate data from a variety of sources. As SQL Server continues its march into the enterprise, the days of focusing 100% on one platform are over. At a bare minimum, we need to be able to communicate with DBA's for other platforms. Terminology as simple as Instance and Database mean very different things in Oracle than they do in SQL Server. In this session, we will compare and contrast the two platforms in terms of features and terminology. We will also discuss some of the best practices and pitfalls when integrating the two.
Speaker(s): Randy Knight,
Abstract:
This session will demonstrate how a BI semantic model is created, how it's used once it's created, and how to maintain it once it's deployed. The BI semantic model is a critical component in the new SQL 2012 BI capabilities.
Speaker(s): Jason Volpe,

In this latest release, you now have a wide range of options for helping viewers to better understand data through visualization. In this session, you learn what's new, how best to use these new features, and how to avoid common design problems by properly applying principles of visual design.
Speaker(s): Stacia Varga,
Abstract:
Understanding Transactions Transactions are essential to maintaining data integrity. Getting transactions right means understanding both how they work and the business rules that govern your data. This session will explain the fundamentals of transactions and how they behave in SQL Server. It will delve into ACID properties, isolation levels and nested transactions. The session will also review how to structure transactions to satisfy business rules and ensure efficient performance.
Speaker(s): Denise McInerney,
Abstract:
Including the fiscal calendars of major customers within the date dimensions of their own cubes has great appeal to many organizations, including financial services firms and the like. After all, having customer calendars in their cubes' date dimension means sales and marketing managers can analyze - and report upon - data according to the fiscal calendar of the customer, as well as within the context of their own. In this session, Microsoft BI Architect and SQL Server MVP Bill Pearson leads an examination into a way we can accomplish this by implementing a SQL Server Analysis Services "many-to-many" dimension scenario.
Speaker(s): William E Pearson III,
Abstract:
This is a demo intensive deep dive showing a variety of SSIS methods that you can use to load unstructured text files, gigabyte size files, images, XML, Excel, email, and binary files.

Finally, I will share useful C# code for parsing complex strings, data manipulation and file archival.
Speaker(s): Jeff Renz,
Abstract:
If you've ever found yourself stating the above, this session is for you. For many developers, writing T-SQL that works is not the challenge. But too often, functional T-SQL is not the same as good T-SQL. In this session, we will examine why "SQL that works" is not good enough. Understanding indexes, exectuion plans, sargability, and more are all critical to writing good T-SQL. We will also examine several real-world examples of T-SQL that "worked great in dev" but caused major issues when it hit production.
Speaker(s): Randy Knight,
Abstract:
Snapshot fact tables are a common approach when a point-in-time reference is required. In some cases though, even snapshots are not an option due to the amount of data it will generate. In this session we will walk through a practical example of when and how to implement temporal fact tables, and how these can be a viable alternative to snapshots in certain situations.
Speaker(s): Martin Schoombee,
Abstract:
SQL Server database administrators need to proactively prevent or minimize performance problems when they occur, and diagnose the cause to take the appropriate corrective action. The reasons for performance problems can range from a poorly designed database to a system that is improperly configured for the workload. This talk will focus on understanding common performance problems, diagnosing and troubleshooting using publicly available tools, and provide a general methodology for diagnosing and troubleshooting SQL Server performance problems using common customer scenarios.
Speaker(s): Gus Apostol,
Abstract:

Speaker(s): Josh Sivey,
Abstract:
SQL Server introduced the ability to define TVPs (aka, User-Defined Table Types) as a Read-Only parameter-type in stored procedures. As usual, the .Net out-of-the-box experience is not the most performant. To truly realize the full performance benefit with passing data from a .Net application via a TVP requires additional development.
Speaker(s): Robert Miller,
Abstract:
SQL Server on VMware??? Many of our customers are either virtualizing databases or planning to do so soon. I hear from many groups that attempted running their database on VMware but went back to physical hardware because of performance issues. There are many reasons this may have happened, but quite often the decision to go back to physical was not based on hard facts. This presentation will explore the fundamentals of monitoring databases running in a VMware environment. If you are using classic O/S monitoring tools, you may be getting misleading data. Understand what metrics are important and how to get to that data.
