Two questions: where do you live (country only) and what is the exact model of the laptop?
I would follow up with if you get eBay in your country/location use that as a source for the battery. Make sure to match the part number with your battery part number and rating specs. If you want more exact info you need to give us the acutal Part Number to see what the battery part number is from HP.

Why do we need downcasting in Java? What is the use of it?

Why do we need downcasting in Java? What is the use of it?

here's an example of a valid downcast.
class Dog {}
class Dogma extends Dog {}
class Dogmatic extends Dog {}
Dog dogwood = new Dogma(); // a Dogma object is upcast to a Dog
Dogma bush = (Dogma) dogwood; // a Dogma object is downcast from a Dog
You cannot upcast a Dogmatic to a Dog and then downcast it to a Dogma. You also cannot downcast a Dog to a Dogma. In the working example, above, the dogwood references a Dogma, so you can downcast the Dogma.
and one more example
If you have a class hierarchy where class B extends class A (B is a specialization of A) you can use B in the place of A since B supports all the operations that B does. This is called polymorphism.
When you use an object of type B in place of A you actually do a up-cast, meaning you make the object of type B look like an object of type A (a less specific class type).
What you are asking about is down-casting which is making an object be of a more specific type, i.e. transforming an object of type A to type B. Is is only allowed if the object was actually created as a type B.
This is allowed (line 2 is a down-cast):
A a = new B();
B b = (B)a;

What is the cost and process for factory refurbish of a tx2-1375dx with a blown system board?
How would one go about arranging for such service?
Why is it impossible to contact a real human for support, either via online chat or phone?

Last I checked I am a real human, it is just that I do not work for HP and can't speak for them. HP would not be the place I would go for a "refurbish" job. They charge an arm and a leg for out of warranty service. You simply need to find someone to replace the system board (motherboard). It is also very likely on that model that you could have your system board repaired. There are many services on ebay that will repair the motherboard at the component level. The cost would be at or under $100 or so. I have more advice to give but many times I write a detailed response only to have the user never come back. I do check my posts so if you want more ideas just please respond. The tx2-1000 was one of the models affected by the nVidia issue that caused so many HP laptops made in the 2007-2009 era to fail prematurely.

My mac os x is currently 10.5.8. What is the cost to upgrade to the most current?

My macbook pro os x is currently running 10.5.8. What is the cost to upgrade to the most current?

Assuming you have the upgrade system requirements you would first purchase a Snow Leopard DVD and upgrade to Snow Leopard. Then you update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 to gain access to the App Store where you would then purchase and download Lion. Costs are $29.00 for Snow Leopard and $30.00 for Lion.
Lion System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
See the following as well:
How to Install OS X Updates Successfully
A. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions:
Boot from your current OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. Then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
B. Make a Bootable Backup Using Restore Option of Disk Utility:
Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
Select the destination volume from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
C. Important: Please read before installing:
If you have a FireWire hard drive connected, disconnect it before installing the update unless you will boot from this drive and install the update on it. Reconnect it and turn it back on after installation is complete and you've restarted.
You may experience unexpected results if you have installed third-party system software modifications, or if you have modified the operating system through other means. (This does not apply to normal application software installation.)
The installation process should not be interrupted. If a power outage or other interruption occurs during installation, use the standalone installer (see below) from Apple Downloads to update. While the installation is in progress do not use the computer.
D. To upgrade:
Purchase the Snow Leopard Retail DVD.
Boot From The OS X Installer Disc:
Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
Restart the computer.
Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears.
Wait for installer to finish loading.
E. If updating:
Download and install update(s)
Use Software Update, or
Download standalone updater(s).
Once you then purchase and download Lion from the App Store consider this before you actually install Lion:
Make Your Own Lion Installer
1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility.
Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that you can use without having to re-download Lion.

Hi Sumit,
                    Below is the description according to ur query
Business Intelligence is a process for increasing the competitive advantage of a business by intelligent use of available data in decision making. This process is pictured below.
The five key stages of Business Intelligence:
1.     Data Sourcing
2.     Data Analysis
3.     Situation Awareness
4.     Risk Assessment
5.     Decision Support
Data sourcing
Business Intelligence is about extracting information from multiple sources of data. The data might be: text documents - e.g. memos or reports or email messages; photographs and images; sounds; formatted tables; web pages and URL lists. The key to data sourcing is to obtain the information in electronic form. So typical sources of data might include: scanners; digital cameras; database queries; web searches; computer file access; etcetera.
Data analysis
Business Intelligence is about synthesizing useful knowledge from collections of data. It is about estimating current trends, integrating and summarising disparate information, validating models of understanding, and predicting missing information or future trends. This process of data analysis is also called data mining or knowledge discovery. Typical analysis tools might use:-
u2022     probability theory - e.g. classification, clustering and Bayesian networks;
u2022     statistical methods - e.g. regression;
u2022     operations research - e.g. queuing and scheduling;
u2022     artificial intelligence - e.g. neural networks and fuzzy logic.
Situation awareness
Business Intelligence is about filtering out irrelevant information, and setting the remaining information in the context of the business and its environment. The user needs the key items of information relevant to his or her needs, and summaries that are syntheses of all the relevant data (market forces, government policy etc.). Situation awareness is the grasp of the context in which to understand and make decisions. Algorithms for situation assessment provide such syntheses automatically.
Risk assessment
Business Intelligence is about discovering what plausible actions might be taken, or decisions made, at different times. It is about helping you weigh up the current and future risk, cost or benefit of taking one action over another, or making one decision versus another. It is about inferring and summarising your best options or choices.
Decision support
Business Intelligence is about using information wisely. It aims to provide warning you of important events, such as takeovers, market changes, and poor staff performance, so that you can take preventative steps. It seeks to help you analyse and make better business decisions, to improve sales or customer satisfaction or staff morale. It presents the information you need, when you need it.
This section describes how we are using extraction, transformation and loading (ETL) processes and a data warehouse architecture to build our enterprise-wide data warehouse in incremental project steps. Before an enterprise-wide data warehouse could be delivered, an integrated architecture and a companion implementation methodology needed to be adopted. A productive and flexible tool set was also required to support ETL processes and the data warehouse architecture in a production service environment. The resulting data warehouse architecture has the following four principal components:
u2022 Data Sources
u2022 Data Warehouses
u2022 Data Marts
u2022 Publication Services
ETL processing occurs between data sources and the data warehouse, between the data warehouse and data marts and may also be used within the data warehouse and data marts.
Data Sources
The university has a multitude of data sources residing in different Data Base Management System (DBMS) tables and non-DBMS data sets. To ensure that all relevant data source candidates were identified, a physical inventory and logical inventory was conducted. The compilation of these inventories ensures that we have an enterprise-wide view of the university data resource.
The physical inventory was comprised of a review of DBMS cataloged tables as well as data sets used by business processes. These data sets had been identified through developing the enterprise-wide information needs model.
3
SUGI 30 Focus Session
The logical inventory was constructed from u201Cbrain-stormingu201D sessions which focused on common key business terms which must be referenced when articulating the institutionu2019s vision and mission (strategic direction, goals, strategies, objectives and activities). Once the primary terms were identified, they were organized into directories such as u201CProjectu201D, u201CLocationu201D, u201CAcademic Entityu201D, u201CUniversity Personu201D, u201CBudget Envelopeu201D etc. Relationships were identified by recognizing u201Cnatural linkagesu201D within and among directories, and the u201Cdrill-downsu201D and u201Croll-upsu201D that were required to support u201Creport byu201D and u201Creport onu201D information hierarchies. This exercise allowed the directories to be sub-divided into hierarchies of business terms which were useful for presentation and validation purposes.
We called this important deliverable the u201CConceptual Data Modelu201D (CDM) and it was used as the consolidated conceptual (paper) view of all of the Universityu2019s diverse data sources. The CDM was then subjected to a university-wide consultative process to solicit feedback and communicate to the university community that this model would be adopted by the Business Intelligence (BI) project as a governance model in managing the incremental development of its enterprise-wide data warehousing project.
Data Warehouse
This component of our data warehouse architecture (DWA) is used to supply quality data to the many different data marts in a flexible, consistent and cohesive manner. It is a u2018landing zoneu2019 for inbound data sources and an organizational and re-structuring area for implementing data, information and statistical modeling. This is where business rules which measure and enforce data quality standards for data collection in the source systems are tested and evaluated against appropriate data quality business rules/standards which are required to perform the data, information and statistical modeling described previously.
Inbound data that does not meet data warehouse data quality business rules is not loaded into the data warehouse (for example, if a hierarchy is incomplete). While it is desirable for rejected and corrected records to occur in the operational system, if this is not possible then start dates for when the data can begin to be collected into the data warehouse may need to be adjusted in order to accommodate necessary source systems data entry u201Cre-worku201D. Existing systems and procedures may need modification in order to permanently accommodate required data warehouse data quality measures. Severe situations may occur in which new data entry collection transactions or entire systems will need to be either built or acquired.
We have found that a powerful and flexible extraction, transformation and loading (ETL) process is to use Structured Query Language (SQL) views on host database management systems (DBMS) in conjunction with a good ETL tool such as SAS® ETL Studio. This tool enables you to perform the following tasks:
u2022 The extraction of data from operational data stores
u2022 The transformation of this data
u2022 The loading of the extracted data into your data warehouse or data mart
When the data source is a u201Cnon-DBMSu201D data set it may be advantageous to pre-convert this into a SAS® data set to standardize data warehouse metadata definitions. Then it may be captured by SAS® ETL Studio and included in the data warehouse along with any DBMS source tables using consistent metadata terms. SAS® data sets, non-SAS® data sets, and any DBMS table will provide the SAS® ETL tool with all of the necessary metadata required to facilitate productive extraction, transformation and loading (ETL) work.
Having the ability to utilize standard structured query language (SQL) views on host DBMS systems and within SAS® is a great advantage for ETL processing. The views can serve as data quality filters without having to write any procedural code. The option exists to u201Cmaterializeu201D these views on the host systems or leave them u201Cun-materializedu201D on the hosts and u201Cmaterializeu201D them on the target data structure defined in the SAS® ETL process. These choices may be applied differentially depending upon whether you are working with u201Ccurrent onlyu201D or u201Ctime seriesu201D data. Different deployment configurations may be chosen based upon performance issues or cost considerations. The flexibility of choosing different deployment options based upon these factors is a considerable advantage.

SUGI 30 Focus Session
Data Marts
This component of the data warehouse architecture may manifest as the following:
u2022 Customer u201Cvisibleu201D relational tables
u2022 OLAP cubes
u2022 Pre-determined parameterized and non-parameterized reports
u2022 Ad-hoc reports
u2022 Spreadsheet applications with pre-populated work sheets and pivot tables
u2022 Data visualization graphics
u2022 Dashboard/scorecards for performance indicator applications
Typically a business intelligence (BI) project may be scoped to deliver an agreed upon set of data marts in a project. Once these have been well specified, the conceptual data model (CDM) is used to determine what parts need to be built or used as a reference to conform the inbound data from any new project. After the detailed data mart specifications (DDMS) have been verified and the conceptual data model (CDM) components determined, a source and target logical data model (LDM) can be designed to integrate the detailed data mart specification (DDMS) and conceptual data model (CMD). An extraction, transformation and loading (ETL) process can then be set up and scheduled to populate the logical data models (LDM) from the required data sources and assist with any time series and data audit change control requirements.
Over time as more and more data marts and logical data models (LDMu2019s) are built the conceptual data model (CDM) becomes more complete. One very important advantage to this implementation methodology is that the order of the data marts and logical data models can be entirely driven by project priority, project budget allocation and time-to-completion constraints/requirements. This data warehouse architecture implementation methodology does not need to dictate project priorities or project scope as long as the conceptual data model (CDM) exercise has been successfully completed before the first project request is initiated.

Publication Services
This is the visible presentation environment that business intelligence (BI) customers will use to interact with the published data mart deliverables. The SAS® Information Delivery Portal will be utilized as a web delivery channel to deliver a u201Cone-stop information shoppingu201D solution. This software solution provides an interface to access enterprise data, applications and information. It is built on top of the SAS Business Intelligence Architecture, provides a single point of entry and provides a Portal API for application development. All of our canned reports generated through SAS® Enterprise Guide, along with a web-based query and reporting tool (SAS® Web Report Studio) will be accessed through this publication channel.
Using the portalu2019s personalization features we have customized it for a McMaster u201Clook and feelu201D. Information is organized using pages and portlets and our stakeholders will have access to public pages along with private portlets based on role authorization rules. Stakeholders will also be able to access SAS® data sets from within Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel using the SAS® Add-In for Microsoft Office. This tool will enable our stakeholders to execute stored processes (a SAS® program which is hosted on a server) and embed the results in their documents and spreadsheets. Within Excel, the SAS® Add-In can:
u2022 Access and view SAS® data sources
u2022 Access and view any other data source that is available from a SAS® server
u2022 Analyze SAS® or Excel data using analytic tasks
The SAS® Add-In for Microsoft Office will not be accessed through the SAS® Information Delivery Portal as this is a client component which will be installed on individual personal computers by members of our Client Services group. Future stages of the project will include interactive reports (drill-down through OLAP cubes) as well as balanced scorecards to measure performance indicators (through SAS® Strategic Performance Management software). This, along with event notification messages, will all be delivered through the SAS® Information Delivery Portal.
Publication is also channeled according to audience with appropriate security and privacy rules.
SECURITY u2013 AUTHENTICATION AND AUTHORIZATION
The business value derived from using the SAS® Value Chain Analytics includes an authoritative and secure environment for data management and reporting. A data warehouse may be categorized as a u201Ccollection of integrated databases designed to support managerial decision making and problem solving functionsu201D and u201Ccontains both highly detailed and summarized historical data relating to various categories, subjects, or areasu201D. Implementation of the research funding data mart at McMaster has meant that our stakeholders now have electronic access to data which previously was not widely disseminated. Stakeholders are now able to gain timely access to this data in the form that best matches their current information needs. Security requirements are being addressed taking into consideration the following:
u2022 Data identification
u2022 Data classification
u2022 Value of the data
u2022 Identifying any data security vulnerabilities
u2022 Identifying data protection measures and associated costs
u2022 Selection of cost-effective security measures
u2022 Evaluation of effectiveness of security measures
At McMaster access to data involves both authentication and authorization. Authentication may be defined as the process of verifying the identity of a person or process within the guidelines of a specific
6
SUGI 30 Focus Session
security policy (who you are). Authorization is the process of determining which permissions the user has for which resources (permissions). Authentication is also a prerequisite for authorization. At McMaster business intelligence (BI) services that are not public require a sign on with a single university-wide login identifier which is currently authenticated using the Microsoft Active Directory. After a successful authentication the SAS® university login identifier can be used by the SAS® Meta data server. No passwords are ever stored in SAS®. Future plans at the university call for this authentication to be done using Kerberos.
At McMaster aggregate information will be open to all. Granular security is being implemented as required through a combination of SAS® Information Maps and stored processes. SAS® Information Maps consist of metadata that describe a data warehouse in business terms. Through using SAS® Information Map Studio which is an application used to create, edit and manage SAS® Information Maps, we will determine what data our stakeholders will be accessing through either SAS® Web Report Studio (ability to create reports) or SAS® Information Delivery Portal (ability to view only). Previously access to data residing in DB-2 tables was granted by creating views using structured query language (SQL). Information maps are much more powerful as they capture metadata about allowable usage and query generation rules. They also describe what can be done, are database independent and can cross databases and they hide the physical structure of the data from the business user. Since query code is generated in the background, the business user does not need to know structured query language (SQL). As well as using Information Maps, we will also be using SAS® stored processes to implement role based granular security.
At the university some business intelligence (BI) services are targeted for particular roles such as researchers. The primary investigator role of a research project needs access to current and past research funding data at both the summary and detail levels for their research project. A SAS® stored process (a SAS® program which is hosted on a server) is used to determine the employee number of the login by checking a common university directory and then filtering the research data mart to selectively provide only the data that is relevant for the researcher who has signed onto the decision support portal.
Other business intelligence (BI) services are targeted for particular roles such as Vice-Presidents, Deans, Chairs, Directors, Managers and their Staff. SAS® stored processes are used as described above with the exception that they filter data on the basis of positions and organizational affiliations. When individuals change jobs or new appointments occur the authorized business intelligence (BI) data will always be correctly presented.
As the SAS® stored process can be executed from many environments (for example, SAS® Web Report Studio, SAS® Add-In for Microsoft Office, SAS® Enterprise Guide) authorization rules are consistently applied across all environments on a timely basis. There is also potential in the future to automatically customize web portals and event notifications based upon the particular role of the person who has signed onto the SAS® Information Delivery Portal.

REPORTING
We have created a number of parameterized stored processes using SAS® Enterprise Guide, which our stakeholders will access as both static (HTML as well as PDF documents) and interactive reports (drill-down) through SAS® Web Report Studio and the SAS® Add-In for Microsoft Office. All canned reports along with SAS® Web Report Studio will be accessed through the SAS® Information Delivery Portal.
NEXT STEPS
Next steps of the project include development of a financial data mart along with appropriate data quality standards, monthly frozen snapshots and implementation of university-wide financial reporting standards. This will facilitate electronic access to integrated financial information necessary for the development and maintenance of an integrated, multi-year financial planning framework. Canned reports to include monthly web-based financial statements, with drill-down capability along with budget templates automatically populated with data values and saved in different workbooks for different subgroups (for example by Department). The later will be accomplished using Microsoft Direct Data Exchange (DDE).

As well, we will begin the implementation of SAS® Strategic Performance Management Software to support the performance measurement and monitoring initiative that is a fundamental component of McMasteru2019s strategic plan. This tool will assist in critically assessing and identifying meaningful and statistically relevant measures and indicators. This software can perform causal analyses among various measures within and across areas providing useful information on inter-relationships between factors and measures. As well as demonstrating how decisions in one area affect other areas, these cause-and-effect analyses can reveal both good performance drivers and also possible detractors and enable u2018evidenced-basedu2019 decision-making. Finally, the tool provides a balanced scorecard reporting format, designed to identify statistically significant trends and results that can be tailored to the specific goals, objectives and measures of the various operational areas of the University.
LESSONS LEARNED
Lessons learned include the importance of taking a consultative approach not only in assessing information needs, but also in building data hierarchies, understanding subject matter, and in prioritizing tasks to best support decision making and inform senior management. We found that a combination of training and mentoring (knowledge transfer) helped us accelerate learning the new tools. It was very important to ensure that time and resources were committed to complete the necessary planning and data quality initiatives prior to initiating the first project. When developing a project plan, it is important to

What is the cost of replacing iphone 5(broken screen, out of warranty) with a higher model maybe 5s? In India.

Hi,
Yesterday i dropped my phone and the screen got shattered. The phone is working fine. but the screen is cracked.
After searching through the internet, i found out the following options:
Getting Out-of-warranty Replacement.
Getting the screen repaired by Apple Store.
I am located in India and had bought the phone from India only.
So my questions are?
What is the cost of getting an out-of warranty replacement for iPhone 5?
Can i get a replacement for a higher model of iPhone( maybe 5s or upcoming iPhone 6). If yes, how much extra i'll have to pay?
Is it possible to repair the broken screen in India? if yes, what will be the tentative cost?
Thanks.

iPhone 5 screen replacement at an Apple store is ~$120.
The price of getting the screen replaced in the US on the 5 is $150, and it is only available on the US as of now.
iPhone 5 screen replacement at an non-official Apple retailer is $75-90
Should the OP decide to go that route, he will be forfeiting future support from Apple, both in and out of warranty
A new/refurb 16GB iPhone 5 from Apple is ~$400
A used 16GB iPhone 5 on Craigslist or Swappa is ~$275-350
Apple no longer sells the iPhone 5. They keep a number of units on hand for out of warranty service, which is $269 in the US.
Buying from Craiglist (or on-line) is usually risky as the phones turn out to be not what they are advertised as.

What is the Cost of replacing the front screen ón my iphone4s?

Apple doesn't replace screens, they just give you a new phone. Schedule a Genius Bar appointment at your local Apple Store and have a Genius look at it for you.
