Big Data for Good or Evil - Lessons from the NSA PRISM Scandal - Webinar By EITAGlobal

Date: 09-Jan-14 to 09-Jan-14
Overview: Heroic whistleblower or villainous traitor? Regardless of how you feel about Edward Snowden's release of confidential NSA documents, there are several important lessons from the entire NSA PRISM scandal that any organization dealing with Big Data can take to heart. Nobody is upset the NSA has stopped terrorist attacks (except the terrorists, of course). What we're all upset about is the fact that they are collecting information on everybody else - especially non-US citizens. Lesson #1: It's not just the data you want that are important, you also have to worry about the data you don't want.

Key Steps in Starting Your First Predictive Analytics Project - Webinar By EITAGlobal

Date: 14-Jan-14 to 14-Jan-14
Overview: Predictive Analytics (PA) is an approach to analysis that has moved from being a niche approach to a mainstream approach and is often included in lists of growing technology industries. Many analysts are familiar with building basic analyses and reports in Excel, KPIs with a Business Intelligence (BI) tool, or statistical tests. PA, however, is not an approach than can be summarized by a series of rules or recipes: there is certainly science behind PA approaches, but there is also considerable "art" as well. The "art" of PA is driven by principles derived from the science, but still allows for multiple approaches to achieve the same end. This webinar summarizes the best practices for building predictive models including both the art and the science of PA ...

Practical Real-Time Systems Using the Real-Time Specification for Java - Webinar By EITAGlobal

Date: 14-Jan-14 to 14-Jan-14
Overview: The Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ) has been in use since 2001, and has been made available for application developers by several vendors since that time. The RTSJ was created to extend Java technology for use by embedded systems that are sensitive to event and response timing. Before the RTSJ was developed, the Java language already provided excellent support for many of the critical attributes of these applications, including: Machine independence - a Java program can run on any processor for which a Java Virtual Machine is available. Language Safety - Java syntax has been carefully designed to ensure that the large majority of programming errors will be caught at compile time rather than being left until execution time as is so often true for C and C++. Object ...

The Myths and Facts About Faster Software Delivery Using Agile - Webinar By EITAGlobal

Date: 15-Jan-14 to 15-Jan-14
Overview: Join noted author and agile project management expert Kevin Aguanno as he explains the misconceptions and the underlying truths about faster software delivery using agile methods and uncovers the preconditions to achieving speed. Along the way he will discuss the more easily achievable benefits of agile and how speed comes with higher levels of agile maturity. Why Should You Attend : When asking people why they want to use agile delivery methods, one of the most common reasons I hear is that they want to "deliver faster."

In many cases, an apparently simple, short development ...
