EPF - Executable Presentation Format

Training is a universal phenomenon and there are several challenges faced. One of the primary challenges faced in mass training is maintaining the quality as well as the consistency of the training material. Traditionally, Power Point presentations are created. These are then distributed to the trainers, who are typically located across a large geographical area. And as and when changes take place, and in most cases this happens as often as several times a month, these are communicated by mail, and the trainer is expected to make the changes. What has been found is that this process is difficult to monitor and several inconsistencies happen. The second problem that takes place is that there are several versions of the same presentation available and quite often, an older version gets used. And finally, in cases of multi session training, there is major confusion and wasstage of training time in locating the right presentation. Amongst several other limitations, there is also the limitation of the presentation being linear in nature and hence not amiable to spontaneous change by the trainer. Another limitation is the ability to seamlessly use surround material, such as applications, websites, et al.

 

EPF was created to overcome all of these limitations. Add a few necessary tools. And make training material, easy and effective to use. EPF is a training tool that embeds presentations (Video, Flash, PowerPoint, etc.) and makes them all available to the trainer in an easy-to-use manner.

 

Data Retrieval Optimisation using Infobright

While building a POC for a business analytics application which emphasized on faster data retrieval from business driven queries on a large volume of data, we knew we had to think out of the MySQL box. Retrieving data using MySQL, especially when the data is very huge, can take quite long.
 
We had to handle the 0.2 million records. The query involved searching through all of the records and took 15 odd minutes when we implemented it using MySQL :-(
 

Optimized “Jasper Reports”

Feature: Graphical representation of the reports. 
“Jasper Report” is one of the options that we choose for the graphically displaying reports. Jasper report is implemented with the help of jrxml file which acts as an editor for designing graphical report.

Query Optimisation

While in a project which involved handling lots of data, we came across an interesting issue. After importing data into our database, we had to validate the data and mark the invalid ones.

 

What makes WebExam different from the Conventional Online Testing software?

 

I have come across a plethora of applications over the Web that allow organizations to conduct Online Tests. The disadvantage? None seem to provide a way for the Organization to customize the tests which makes those products to be classified under use-and-throw i.e: if the Organization wants to conduct a different test they are stuck!!

CiviCRM comes out on top in NTEN Survey

NTEN recently released the results of a CRM satisfaction survey they did a few months ago. It was a pleasure to receive the CiviCRM report card.
