Fix Permissions By SW 2.7
Fix Permissions By SW - Repairs permissions on Mac OS X more>>
***THERE IS NO APPLICATION!*** (the installer IS the program!)
Great for using with ARD/NetBoot.
When the "installer" is run, Disk Utility runs its "repair permissions" command in the background. If you want to "repair permissions" again, "install" the package again.
This program runs the command
"sudo diskutil repairPermissions /"
Thats it....its just in a package to make life easier.
Enhancements:
- More logging for system events
- Log files now placed in separate directory (/Library/Logs/SISUWORKS/FixPermissionsBySW.log)
- Reduced dependency on executing commands as root, due to the fact that root authentication is required anyways
- Forced Software to only run on Root volume (currently booted volume) to clear up some confusion.

Scala 2.7.5
General purpose programming language designed to express common programming patterns more>> General purpose programming language designed to express common programming patterns
Scala is a general purpose programming language designed to express common programming patterns in a concise, elegant, and type-safe way. It smoothly integrates features of object-oriented and functional languages.
Scala is also fully interoperable with Java and it is the successor of Funnel, a language based on join calculus.
Main features:
Scala is object-oriented:
- - Scala is a pure object-oriented language in the sense that every value is an object. Types and behavior of objects are described by classes and traits. Class abstractions are extended by subclassing and a flexible mixin-based composition mechanism as a clean replacement for multiple inheritance.
Scala is functional:
- - Scala is also a functional language in the sense that every function is a value. Scala provides a lightweight syntax for defining anonymous functions, it supports higher-order functions, it allows functions to be nested, and supports currying. Scalas case classes and its built-in support for pattern matching model algebraic types used in many functional programming languages.
- - Furthermore, Scalas notion of pattern matching naturally extends to the processing of XML data with the help of right-ignoring sequence patterns. In this context, sequence comprehensions are useful for formulating queries. These features make Scala ideal for developing applications like web services (external link).
Scala is statically typed:
- Scala is equipped with an expressive type system that enforces statically that abstractions are used in a safe and coherent manner. In particular, the type system supports:
- - generic classes,
- - variance annotations,
- - upper and lower type bounds,
- - inner classes and abstract types as object members,
- - compound types,
- - explicitly typed self references,
- - views, and
- - polymorphic methods.
- - A local type inference mechanism takes care that the user is not required to annotate the program with redundant type information. In combination, these features provide a powerful basis for the safe reuse of programming abstractions and for the type-safe extension of software.
Scala is extensible:
- The design of Scala acknowledges the fact that in practice, the development of domain-specific applications often requires domain-specific language extensions. Scala provides a unique combination of language mechanisms that make it easy to smoothly add new language constructs in form of libraries:
- - any method may be used as an infix or postfix operator, and
- - closures are constructed automatically depending on the expected type (target typing).
- - A joint use of both features facilitates the definition of new statements without extending the syntax and without using macro-like meta-programming facilities.
- - Scala is designed to interoperate well with popular programming environments like the Java 2 Runtime Environment (JRE) and the .NET Framework (CLR). In particular, the interaction with mainstream object-oriented languages like Java and C# is as smooth as possible. Scala has the same compilation model (separate compilation, dynamic class loading) like Java and C# and allows access to thousands of high-quality libraries.

The BixServer is the central component designed to collect data from servers more>>
Easy To Install
BixServer is a complete solution that is easy to deploy and installs in less than 10 minutes. BixServer also features auto configuration for all its features, and includes network tools such as network scan and network topology to import the details of servers and networking devices.
Agent-less Monitoring
BixServer can monitor servers and services that do not have agents installed, such as HTTP, applications and databases.
Data Gathering
BixServer is an advanced data gathering platform. Data gathering from agents automatically configures itself for optimum performance and lowest impact on resources and network bandwidth.
BixAgent features local storage which allows monitoring and data collection to continue even if network connectivity is not available. In any environment switches/routers or networks can fail. This is also ideal in environments where always on connectivity is not available.
Through included data sources and plug-ins, BixAgent can collect data from any server on any platform and store directly into a number of supported SQL Servers.
BixData uses an open specification for data storage. Open data exchange is very important to integrate with different environments and software systems, especially in IT.
Notifications, Alerts and Actions
Manage devices by monitoring the many aspects of availability, performance and resource usage and then manage by using notifications and alerts.
System administrators can instantly be notified through desktop alerts, email or cell phone; or escalate errors through their organization. BixServer also supports built-in actions such as executing scripts locally or remotely, or taking any number of built-in actions.
SQL Support
BixServers Operational Data Store allows the gathering and storage of more than 30GB per day. Through included data sources and plug-ins, BixAgent can collect data from any server on any platform and store directly into a number of supported SQL Servers. All data schemas and data storage in BixData is in XML format that can easily be integrated into 3rd party applications or accessed directly from the underlying SQL database servers.
SQL Support is included for MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Firebird.
Reporting
The advanced reporting capabilities of BixServer include table reports, graphs and html reports. BixServer has many predefined reports and graphs that provide useful information about servers, applications and even hardware inventory. Reports can provide information on specific servers, services and also averages for groups of servers.
OSXFlex2D 2.7
2D flexural/elastic modeling. more>>
OSXFlex2D 2.7 provides you a powerful program which is able to implement the "elastic" , "flexural" model. Crustal loads can be entered and plotted, the profile of deformation produced by these loads can be computed and visualized, and the effect of changes in model parameters can be evaluated at real time. Geologists often talk about the "flexural" link between tectonic loads and sedimentary basins, but they rarely do the math. Perhaps, because implementing the "flexural" model is tedious, specially if it is done in spreadsheets. OSXFlex2D makes "flexural modeling" an easy and enjoyable task.
