PALO ALTO, CA, July 06, 2011 (Press-News.org) Increasingly enterprises are implementing master data management (MDM) solutions to ensure the consistency of information across the organization, enabling better decision-making and more efficient operations. However, adapting master data formats to different data models within a service-oriented architecture (SOA) often poses significant challenges. Some IT architects and developers turn to data duplication as a temporary workaround, but this approach leads to system instability and data inconsistency. A more secure, long-term solution for leveraging existing master data in an SOA is to use middleware as the basis for implementing MDM and virtual MDM (VMDM) concepts.
IT architects and developers can learn how to optimize master data processes by attending the interactive online class, "Master Data Management in Your SOA." The two-hour session is being offered at no cost as a part of the WSO2 SOA Summer School program (http://wso2.org/training?070611m). It will be held on Wednesday, July 13, 2011 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific. To participate, register at http://tinyurl.com/master-data-school.
The Master Data Management class will:
* Introduce core MDM, VMDM and master data repository concepts.
* Explore MDM and VMDM solution patterns, including the use of data adapters and an event-driven architecture.
* Discuss the role of MDM within an SOA and in relationship to data governance.
* Examine real-world MDM case studies in the banking, retail, and financial trading sectors.
* Demonstrate MDM and VMDM implementation models using the award-winning open source WSO2 Carbon middleware platform (http://wso2.com/products?070611m).
Leading the class are Asanka Abeysinghe, WSO2 director of solutions architecture ( http://wso2.com/about/leadership/asanka-abeysinghe?070611m), and Supun Kamburugamuva, WSO2 technical lead and WSO2 ESB product manager (http://wso2.com/about/team/supun-kamburugamuva?070611m). In addition to their roles as Apache Software Foundation committers and their track records in product innovation, Asanka and Supun bring proven expertise in helping WSO2 enterprise customers to successfully implement MDM solutions.

Moving beyond embryonic stem cells: Encouragement on the horizon
2011-07-07
ROCHESTER, Minn. — For nearly two decades, the medical world and the American public have grappled with the lightning-rod topic of stem cells, in particular the controversy surrounding cells from human embryos. But when researchers four years ago successfully "reprogrammed" adult body cells to become stem cells, some thought the ethical debate was nearly over. Those redirected cells, known as induced pluripotent cells, or iPS cells, show potential as therapy.
"The benefit is they require no destruction of human embryos," says Mayo Clinic hematologist/oncologist C. Christopher ...
Bone loss prevention experiment on the last space shuttle flight
2011-07-07
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Researchers in the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill/North Carolina State University Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering will be at the Kennedy Space Center for the last space shuttle launch of the NASA program as Atlantis departs for its final mission into Earth's orbit.
With July 8, 2011 as the target launch date, the UNC/NCSU team led by Ted Bateman, PhD, associate professor in the department, have painstakingly prepared an experiment aboard Atlantis aimed at revealing strategies to protect future astronauts from bone loss during ...
NASA's Hubble makes one millionth science observation
2011-07-07
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope crossed another milestone in its space odyssey of exploration and discovery. On Monday, July 4, the Earth-orbiting observatory logged its one millionth science observation during a search for water in an exoplanet's atmosphere 1,000 light-years away.
"For 21 years Hubble has been the premier space science observatory, astounding us with deeply beautiful imagery and enabling ground-breaking science across a wide spectrum of astronomical disciplines," said NASA Administrator Charles Bolden. He piloted the space shuttle mission that carried ...
New laser technology could kill viruses and improve DVDs
2011-07-07
RIVERSIDE, Calif. (www.ucr.edu) -- A team led by a professor at the University of California, Riverside Bourns College of Engineering has made a discovery in semiconductor nanowire laser technology that could potentially do everything from kill viruses to increase storage capacity of DVDs.
Ultraviolet semiconductor diode lasers are widely used in data processing, information storage and biology. Their applications have been limited, however, by size, cost and power. The current generation of ultraviolet lasers is based on a material called gallium nitride, but Jianlin ...
Termites' digestive system could act as biofuel refinery
2011-07-07
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - One of the peskiest household pests, while disastrous to homes, could prove to be a boon for cars, according to a Purdue University study.
Mike Scharf, the O. Wayne Rollins/Orkin Chair in Molecular Physiology and Urban Entomology, said his laboratory has discovered a cocktail of enzymes from the guts of termites that may be better at getting around the barriers that inhibit fuel production from woody biomass. The Scharf Laboratory found that enzymes in termite guts are instrumental in the insects' ability to break down the wood they eat.
The findings, ...
Folate intake may reduce colorectal cancer risk
2011-07-07
A new study finds high folate intake is associated with a reduced risk of colorectal cancer, a finding consistent with the findings of most previous epidemiologic studies. The study is reassuring, as previous recent evidence has suggested that consumption of very high levels of folate through supplements and from folate-fortified diet may increase risk of some cancers. Nonetheless, the potential importance of folate in colorectal cancer prevention remains in question because at least one other study found folate supplementation had no effect on recurrence of colorectal ...
AgriLife Research study: Cool-season grasses more profitable than warm-season grasses
2011-07-07
VERNON – Access to swine effluent or waste water can help a producer grow more grass. But a Texas AgriLife Researcher says the grass is "greener" economically if it is a cool-season rather than a warm-season variety.
Dr. Seong Park, AgriLife Research economist in Vernon, said while the warm-season grasses appear to have a greater growth boost with swine effluent application, the cool-season grasses have marketing advantages that make it a more viable economic option for producers in the Oklahoma Panhandle and Southern Plains.
Park recently had the results of his study ...
Distract yourself or think it over? 2 ways to deal with negative emotions
2011-07-07
A big part of coping with life is having a flexible reaction to the ups and downs. Now, a study which will be published in an upcoming issue of Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, finds that people choose to respond differently depending on how intense an emotion is. When confronted with high-intensity negative emotions, they tend to choose to turn their attention away, but with something lower-intensity, they tend to think it over and neutralize the feeling that way.
Emotions are useful—for example, fear tells your body to get ...
How hot did Earth get in the past? Team of scientists uncovers new information
2011-07-07
The question seems simple enough: What happens to the Earth's temperature when atmospheric carbon dioxide levels increase? The answer is elusive. However, clues are hidden in the fossil record. A new study by researchers from Syracuse and Yale universities provides a much clearer picture of the Earth's temperature approximately 50 million years ago when CO2 concentrations were higher than today. The results may shed light on what to expect in the future if CO2 levels keep rising.
The study, which for the first time compared multiple geochemical and temperature proxies ...
The impact of candidates' statements about climate change on electoral success
2011-07-07
Candidates gain votes by taking a "green" position on climate change -- endorsing the existence of warming, human causation, and the need for taking action to address it, according to a new study of U.S. adults.
Among citizens who are Democrats and Independents, a hypothetical U.S. Senate candidate gained votes by making a green statement on climate change and lost votes by making a not-green statement, compared to making no statement on climate. Among citizens who are Republicans, the candidate's vote share was unaffected by taking a green position or a not-green position, ...
