Is the Legend in Your SAS/GRAPH Output Telling the Right Story?

Overview When generating plots using the GPLOT procedure, a third variable, such as a treatment or dose group, is often used as a grouping variable. GPLOT automatically uses the values of this variable in the LEGEND, but very often the designers of the plots will want particular symbols, line types, and/or colors to be specified for the display of specific values of this variable. Of course consistency is important, and if the program is subsequently run on a subset of the original data, some values of this discrete variable may be absent in the subset. This can result in an inconsistent representation (symbol, line type, color) of a particular value of the variable in a series of plots.

Surviving the Recession: a Quocirca series

Minor impacts on the variable or fixed costs or the top or bottom line are immaterial. A variable cost saving of one half of a resource is not viable - the other half is still required, so all you end up with is an under-utilised whole resource.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: G force

Even the 1m-drop test inflicted a significantly huge g-force on discrete components and could tear them from their mounting. In the equation of: gravitational force = mg, there is nothing you can do about g, unless you leave the planet, so reducing...

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
