Feed: SAS Blogs. Author: Rick Wicklin. This article uses simulation to demonstrate the fact that any continuous distribution can be transformed into the uniform distribution on (0,1). The function that performs this transformation is a familiar one: it is the cumulative distribution function (CDF). A continuous CDF is defined as an integral, so the transformation is called the probability integral transformation. This article demonstrates the probability integral transformation and its close relative, the inverse CDF transformation. These transformations are useful in many applications, such as constructing statistical tests and simulating data. The ... Read More

Feed: The Connector by Workato. Author: Jon Gitlin; When we surveyed 100 IT executives as part of our State of Automation study, we found that many organizations already automate several employee and candidate-focused workflows.  More than half (56%) of respondents, for example, said that their organization is automating their PTO request and approval process, while just shy of half (43%) are automating their application provisioning process.  Why are HR automations so pervasive? And how are organizations automating the employee workflows mentioned above—among others?  We’ll tackle both questions. That way, you’ll know why HR automations are so important as well as ...

The developers of these ... Read More

Feed: Teradata Blog. It has been almost a year since I first reflected in a blog how the tectonic shifts in banking were accelerating. Changing customer behaviours, agile fintechs and massive hyperscale tech giants and technology itself were all creating a perfect storm for incumbent banks. COVID brought long-term issues into sharp focus. Over the course of the last 12 months, I’ve outlined what I see as the essential elements of survival against this backdrop. Not only a comprehensive and detailed data strategy that drives real return from data as an asset, but also the cultural and organisational changes that ... Read More

Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. In manufacturing enterprises, digital transformation and Industry 4.0 are likely at the top of your mind. New technologies in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) space are critical for monitoring your factory production environments for optimal performance and efficiency. Global events such as Covid-19 have increased interest in monitoring factory performance digitally, when access to factory sites remains restricted. Machine Downtime Monitor on AWS (MDM) is an AWS Solution that manufacturing customers can use to monitor their machines for factory floor breakdowns. The solution ingests machine telemetry data from factory floor machines and provides near real-time ... Read More

Feed: CronJ. Author: Nidhi Swadi; IntroductionStress is one of the much-heard terms in this fast-paced world. But the light-sounding word has been proving as one of the leading factors for chronic diseases. This disease has evolved due to a lack of digital healthcare solutions and proper treatment. According to statistics, 75% to 90% of the diseases have evolved due to stress. And about 25% to 30% of the whole population suffer from chronic diseases caused due to stress. Probably if you are not the one suffering, you know one for sure. If you check, about one-third of the global population is ... Read More

Each dog moves at a slightly different pace, pulls you in a different direction, and has its own needs and environmental stressors.Data products provide a similar challenge. Between different data models, formats, and other software eccentricities, even a skilled team of data engineers and architects can struggle to make tools play nicely with one another. Now, contrast the image of the neighborhood dog walker getting yanked down the street with a musher driving a team of sled ... Read More
