IBM Business Process Manager V8.5 Performance Tuning and Best Practices

By: Mike Collins,Zi Hui Duan,Andreas Fried,Ben Hoflich,Chris Richardson,Torsten Wilms,IBM Redbooks

This IBM® Redbooks® publication provides performance tuning tips and best practices for IBM Business Process Manager (IBM BPM) V8.5.5 (all editions) and IBM Business Monitor V8.5.5. These products represent an integrated development and runtime environment based on a key set of service-oriented architecture (SOA) and business process management (BPM) technologies. Such technologies include Service Component Architecture (SCA), Service Data Object (SDO), Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) for web services, and Business Processing Modeling Notation (BPMN). Both IBM Business Process Manager and Business Monitor build on the core capabilities of the IBM WebSphere® Application Server infrastructure. As a result, Business Process Manager solutions benefit from tuning, configuration, and best practices information for WebSphere Application Server and the corresponding platform Java virtual machines (JVMs). This book targets a wide variety of groups, both within IBM (development, services, technical sales, and others) and customers. For customers who are either considering or are in the early stages of implementing a solution incorporating Business Process Manager and Business Monitor, this document proves a useful reference. The book is useful both in terms of best practices during application development and deployment and as a reference for setup, tuning, and configuration information. This book talks about many issues that can influence performance of each product and can serve as a guide for making rational first choices in terms of configuration and performance settings. Similarly, customers who already implemented a solution with these products can use the information presented here to gain insight into how their overall integrated solution performance can be improved.

On Becoming God:Late Medieval Mysticism and the Modern Western Self

Late Medieval Mysticism and the Modern Western Self

By: Ben Morgan

Do we have to conceive of ourselves as isolated individuals, inevitably distanced from other people and from whatever we might mean when we use the word God? On Becoming God offers an innovative approach to the history of the modern Western self by looking at human identity as something people do together rather than on their own. Ben Morgan argues that the shared practices of human identity can be understood as ways of managing and keeping at bay the impulses and experiences associated with the word God. The "self" is a way of doing things, or of not doing things, with "God." The book draws on phenomenology (Heidegger), gender studies (Beauvoir, Butler) and contemporary neuroscience to present a new approach to the history of modern identity. It surveys existing approaches to modern selfhood (Foucault, Charles Taylor) and proposes an alternative account by investigating late medieval mysticism, in particular texts written in Germany by Meister Eckhart and others in the same milieu. Reactions to the condemnation of Meister Eckhart's teaching for heresy in 1329 offer a microcosm of the circumstances in which something like the modern self arises as people change their behavior toward others, toward themselves, and toward what they call "God." The book makes Meister Eckhart and his contemporaries appear as our contemporaries by changing the assumptions with which we approach our own identity. To make this change requires a revision of current vocabularies for approaching ourselves, and in particular the vocabulary and habits inherited from psychoanalysis. The book finishes by exploring the parallel between late medieval confessors and their spiritual charges, and late-nineteenth-century psychoanalysts and their patients. The result is a renewed vision of the Freud's project of finding a vocabulary for acknowledging and nurturing our everyday commitments to others and to our spiritual longings.

Luigi Dallapiccola and Musical Modernism in Fascist Italy

By: Ben Earle

Luigi Dallapiccola is widely considered a defining figure in twentieth-century Italian musical modernism, whose compositions bear passionate witness to the historical period through which he lived. In this book, Ben Earle focuses on three major works by the composer: the one-act operas Volo di notte ('Night Flight') and Il prigioniero ('The Prisoner'), and the choral Canti di prigionia ('Songs of Imprisonment'), setting them in the context of contemporary politics to trace their complex path from fascism to resistance. Earle also considers the wider relationship between musical modernism and Italian fascism, exploring the origins of musical modernism and investigating its place in the institutional structures created by Mussolini's regime. In doing so, he sheds new light on Dallapiccola's work and on the cultural politics of the early twentieth century to provide a history of musical modernism in Italy from the fin de siècle to the early Cold War.

Summary of the Hard Thing About Hard Things

By Ben Horowitz

By: Instaread Summaries

With InstaRead Summaries, you can get the essence of a book in 30 minutes or less. We read every chapter and summarize it in one or two paragraphs so you can get the information contained in the book at a faster rate. This is an InstaRead Summary of The Hard Thing About Hard Things: Building a Business When There Are No Easy Answers by Ben Horowitz. Below is a preview of the earlier sections of the summary: Introduction Ben explains that every time he reads a self-help or management book, he thinks about the fact that it didn't really address the hard things like laying people off or having good people start demanding unreasonable things. The problem with self-help books is that they try to provide a recipe for dealing with difficult, dynamic situations. Challenging situations can not be solved with a formula. Instead of using a formula in this book, the author presents his story as he progressed from an entrepreneur to CEO to venture capitalist. He shares some of the lessons he has learned along the way. He explains that although circumstances may differ, patterns and lessons resonate with each experience. For the last several years, he has shared lessons learned on his popular blog. Many people have emailed him to ask about the stories behind the lessons. Ben shares that he has been inspired along the way by many family members, friends, and advisers who have helped him. Hip-hop/rap music has also inspired him because these artists aspire to be both great and successful. He also admires that rappers see themselves as entrepreneurs.

The Standard Is Glory

By: Yisrael Ben Avraham

There is a colloquialism amongst us that is used to describe a prominent person, which lacks substance, personality or ability. That person is referred to as an "empty suit." A person that moves in a wrong identity or sins, falls "shortof the glory of God" and lacks weight and substance. What happens when man lives without glory? In this book by my dear brother, coworker and friend, Rabbi Yisrael Ben Avraham, goes through a thorough presentation as to how the empty suit can be filled to the standard of glory. Emulating the Divine Designer this godly author charts a path in which man can recover and reposition himself to Father's original intention regaining our realm of substance, personality and ability. Every person seeking to fulfill his divine task of manifesting that standard should read this book and think twice before doing things that sells us short of it. I highly recommend this read! Saul L. Avila Christian Community Center "The standard of glory is now in the tabernacle of men's heart" Yisrael Ben Avraham On rare occasions do I read a unique book like "The Standard is Glory." Rabbi Yisrael has done an incredible job of painting a picture of glory, spiritual systems and protocols critical to the development of the sons of God. He challenges the reader to examine biblical principles from a Hebraic perspective, which opens the door for both education and revelation. The text presents a new fundamental understanding that "glory is the power to facilitate dominion." I encourage readers, novice and seasoned alike, to engage in what is presented and allow it to transform you inside and out. Dr. Sharon R. Nesbitt Dominion World Outreach Ministries "His is all I am..". a son...Yisrael Ben Avraham

The Book of Ephraim

The Book of Ephraim

By: Yahoshuah Ben Israel

The Book of Ephraim is totally contrary to everything that has been taught through the years. Its pivotal position is that of the gross misunderstanding of what the Bible is trying to impart to the world and the huge blasphemy that has been perpetrated by those who maintain the incorrect teaching of the Almighty, of Yeshua (Christ) and of the original thirteen tribes of the Ancient House of Israel. Yahoshuah recalls how each chapter seemed to just hang in front of his mind's eye as he merely wrote the words on to paper. "There was at no time any effort to think about what next to write. The Book of Ephraim wrote itself." Mystical in nature, the Book of Ephraim chronicles the development of the tribes and follows the progressive movement through the pages of the Bible until this special group of people are destroyed and divinely curse by Yahovah, the creator and sustainer of ancient Israel. The book traces and clearly shows that there is only one group of people throughout all history that could even remotely be identified with the lost sheep of the House of Israel. Controversial and shocking, The Book of Ephraim will leave you enthralled.
