Question about Processors???

Hi there
This is just a question on the posibilities first!
We have EHP3 here and using EIC.  We have HR Queries going to a certain Org Unit within EIC and anyone under that Org Unit can process, but once the Web Request is converted to an Activity, saved and Ended, then anyone who is in that Org Unit should still be able to process, but we are getting a message about not being able to process.  We would like anyone in HR to be able to process any EIC, even though its assigned to a specific Processor?  Any ideas on this one?
Gary

Hi Ravi
Thanks for that....  I got the data wrong...  Try this again
Our example Org Unit
80000300 HR
80006084 HR Operations
80006085 HR Operations Team 1
All our EIC queries come into OU 80000300 and anyone in that org unit and below (80006084 and 80006085) can process. For example an EE in 80006085 takes the activity and becomes the processor. Now anyone in 80006084 and 80000300 needs to take that activity and become the processor. They get this message " Info: You can only create notes or add contacts for this activity"
I hope this makes better sense.
The EIC profile is assigned to all org units, as the inbound / outbound emails are be different.
In OOSB, they are not assigned to a struc auth (in QA or DEV) but are in PROD.  HR Claim they used to be able to do this, but Im not sure how
Any help on this would be great....

  • Question about processor switch

    Hello,
    I just got my new 21.5 imac and I was wondering if anyone has changed processors before? I know, I know....this will void my warranty and all that good stuff, but its just a question. I see that the 21.5 inch uses the LGA 775 Socket T. In theory, this machine would support up to a Core 2 Quad Q9400. Am I correct to assume this? Thanks for the help.

    Even if it works "in theory," the heat dissipation design may not be sufficient to handle the additional heat. And there may be additional power draw that is not accounted for in the design. I wouldn't "assume" it will work, just because the sockets are the same.

  • Question about Processors, Operating Systems and TFLOPS

    Hi guys, I recently read an article about the power of the PS3 consoles. This is a table that I copied from it, which I don't really undestand. All I can see is that the Mac OSX shows the least number of TFLOPs for both PowerPC and Intel architectures. That doesn't seem to be good. If there's anyone out there who can translate the details into "basic language" I would appreciate it.
    OS Type------------Current TFLOPS----Active CPUs---Total CPUs
    Windows------------152--------------159564------1625622
    Mac OS X/PowerPC------7----------------8737--------95371
    Mac OS X/Intel---------9----------------2756----------7272
    Linux----------------43---------------25126-------215901
    GPU-----------------42-----------------708----------2199
    PLAYSTATION®3-----516---------------21062---------22299
    ==============================================
    Total----------------769--------------217953-------1968664
    If you are further interested, or the table became unreadable, or both, this is the link to the original article.
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Yes, you are misinterpreting the data.
    What you're looking at is the workload on some distributed computing task like folding@home, right?
    What it's telling you is that at the time you checked, Windows computers were contributing 152 TFLOPs (trillions of operations per second), PowerPC-based Macs contributed 7, Intel-based Macs added 9, and 516 from the PS3.
    However, you also need to take into account the number of active machines.
    Those 152 Windows TFLOPS were the combined output of 159,564 CPUs, for an average of 0.0009525958 TFLOPS/CPU.
    By comparison, the 7 PowerPC TFLOPS were from 8737 CPUs, or 0..0008011903 TFLOPS/CPU - not all that much different and statistically insignificant.
    The Intel Macs' 9 TFLOPS from 2756 CPUs equates to 0.0032656023 TFLOPS/CPU - significantly higher than either of the other two results.
    The PS3 on the other hand contributes 516 TFLOPS from 21062 CPUs, for 0.0244990979 TFLOPS/CPU - an order of magnitude higher still.
    I'd take the results with a large pinch of salt, though - is that 7 TFLOPS for the PowerPCs, 6.5, or 7.49? That makes a big difference.
    Also, consider that when the PS3 is running the code, that's all its doing. Any other OS is going to be running other applications at the same time.
    Don't get me wrong, the Cell processor is certainly pulling its weight, but don't discard the GPU - its 42 TFLOPS come from just 708 CPUs, for an average of 0.0593220338 TFLOPs/CPU - two and a half times that of the PS3.

  • Another question about processors and cores.

    I did a search and review, but I'm not clear about one thing. There was one thread where it was mentioned that more cores would allow for more video streams to play in real time on the timeline. I need to get at least two HD video streams with alpha, one audio stream, a background still, and a foreground text overlay to all run at once. Can an iMac with just the i3 or i5 dual processors do that, or do I need to step up to the quad core iMac or the MacPro?

    Shane Ross wrote:
    I can get by with just one HD stream and one audio stream. So for that, will any of the processors in an iMac do?
    HD stream. WHAT FORMAT of HD? DVCPRO HD...HDV...PRORES...yes. UNCOMPRESSED HD...no. And again, the amount of streams isn't related to processors...it is related to HARD DRIVE speed.
    For the intermediate video with alpha, what is the best HD format to use that has no compression?
    NO compression? Well, the only NO COMPRESSION alpha codecs there are is ANIMATION...and that isn't playable. ProRes 4444 is the one with the Alpha built in. It is compressed, but pretty darn lossless.
    Point is, you need a good 4-5 drive eSATA RAID...or better.
    Shane
    I start with an image sequence out of Lightwave 3D. I currently use PNG images with alpha. Those are then rendered into video clips - one talking, one not. I use those clips over and over again in a single layer on the timeline and match them to the audio. That intermediate project is then rendered out with alpha and used in the final project.
    That's why I need an uncompressed/lossless format, because I'm building up the project with a couple of prior renders. Sounds like ProRes 4444 would work unless there is a no-compression format.
    How could I use an eSATA when none of the Macs have an eSATA connection?

  • Question about processor vs RAM in 2011 13 MBP

    I am looking at upgrading my older Macbook to a new 13" MBP. I was going to get a 13" Macbook Air until I realized they did not have an ethernet port. I am contemplating between the 2.3 i5 with 8 gig of RAM and the 2.7 i7 with 4 gig. What do you guys think would be a better setup for system performance. I mainly just do normal tasks like web browsing and some programming.
    Thanks

    Hi There. I just purchased the 2.7 Ghz this past Thursday, with the 4 GB RAM. I am loving it, and have had no performance issues, even when running iTunes, Mail, iChat, Safari and Aperture all at once. I think you'll be more than ok with 4GB based on your usage.
    Also, you can easily add more RAM after the purchasing the machine if 4GB turns out to be too little. You can't change the processor though. That being said, that's why I went with the 2.7.

  • Question about processor speed

    Ok. I used to have an iBook G4 1.2 Ghz. I am considering getting one off of ebay with a 1.07 Ghz processor...if I had 768 RAM last time and had it with the one i am considering buying, would there big a noticeable difference in speed or performance?

    Obviously there will be a difference. I'm only basing my judgement on the fact that I own a 1.33Ghz iBook and having used a 1.42Ghz iBook, the only way I'd probably notice any real speed difference was if I ran them side by side. If you're running with 768Mb of RAM, I think the computer will (in your mind) run [virtually] identically.

  • Question about processor configure

    Dear jmfers,
    I learn jmf by copying jmf2 guide's example.
    And i'm using j2sdk1.4.2_06
    The following is part of my code:
    processor.configure();
    processor.setContentDescriptor( new ContentDescriptor( ContentDescriptor.RAW ) );
    trackControl = processor.getTrackControls();
    But each time I run the program, I got the following error.
    javax.media.NotConfiguredError: setContentDescriptor cannot be called before configured
         at com.sun.media.ProcessEngine.setContentDescriptor(ProcessEngine.java:342)
         at com.sun.media.MediaProcessor.setContentDescriptor(MediaProcessor.java:123)
    It's said that the processor will block when it's configuring. But it seems that it doesn't work.
    Any hints for such errors?
    Thanks for reply.

    processor.congifure() doesnt block. its syncronous. You should read better the guide ;-)
    The solution is create a StateHelper(in apendices) over the processor, try another block system or listen the ConfigureCompleteEvent. There are examples of the 3 in the guide... or you can consult the jmf solutions too.

  • I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM... I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM? Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?

    I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM...

    I've learned  by reading other topics that I can't upgrade my graphics card on my Macbook Pro because it's soldered into the motherboard or somthing like that, but please tell me if there is any way to get more video ram by chaning some setting or upgrading something else. I'd also like to know why I only have 256MB of VRAM when I have 8GB of RAM, since I have 8GB of RAM I thought I was supposed to have 560mb of VRAM...
    So the two questions are...
    Is there any way to upgrade my VRAM, so that I can play games on steam?
    Why do I only have 256MB VRAM when I have 8GB total RAM?
    Other Info:
    I have a quad core i7 Processor.

    I am also trying to play games on my BOOTCAMPed side of my mac, or my Windows 7 Professional side.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH IF YOU CAN REPLY,

    The only two items that a user can change on a MBP are the RAM and HDD (Retinas not included).  You have what the unit came with and the only way you will be able to change that is to purchase a MBP with superior graphics
    If you are very much into gaming, the I suggest A PC.  They are far superior for that type of application to a MBP.

  • Question about Video Cards on Laptops

     Hi everyone, and sorry if I post this in the wrong area. I own a few computers, some are consider ancient and others are somewhat old but can run Windows XP just fine. I have a question about the computers in the stores today.
    I am looking to invest in a new laptop, possibly a desktop in the near future depending on my budget. The question I have about video cards today is that, I enjoy a good MMO game now and then, I don't expect to play heavy intensive games, just maybe some more advance games. I notice that for one game that I want to play, it requires a video card to have (Shadow Rendering, Vertex and Pixle Shaders). Do the computers today have those as standard for thier video card? Or do I have to invest in a little bit more expensive laptop/desktop. I am willing to invest money for some more RAM, if I need to improve its preformance. The reason I ask is because I have a 4 year old Laptop with a broken keyboard, and I was thinking about just replacing the laptop with a newer one. it has some pretty good specs and runs everything fine, but it can not play certain games because of those missing video requirements. (Current laptop incase someone is curious: 1.5Ghz Celeron M, 1GB memory 64MB video (Shared) ) Thanks to anyone who has the answer to this question. (P.S sorry if everything is scrunched together. for some reason the formatting is wierd on Opera web browser

    Graphics cards have all those standard today... or at least they should unless you get a really cheap Graphics card. The kind of graphics card and processor and other specs of the computer you want to get should depend on what you want to do with it. It also depends on the kind of games you want to play. If you're playing FPS [first person shooter] then you need a really good graphics card and processor. If you're playing something like Diablo 2 or something that's on the lower end of graphics then you just need decent specs. Graphics cards, I suggest something with aGeForce Nividia card... as of today, they are in the 9 series for high-end cards I believe. For processors... get something like Intel Core 2 Duo T9500 or T9600 or the Core 2 Quatros or Extremes. Extremes are intended for hardcore gaming and would be more expensive. For RAM you should have at least 2GB... you can always upgrade that later.
    For laptops my suggestions are:
    $3k+ get a customized alienware
    $2-3 get a customized dell xps, or macbook pro [although if you're gaming i would suggest you dual boot with windows xp or vista]
    $1-2k get a cheaper customized dell, or sony vaio
    under $1k... well I don't know what to say... you can't really get a nice gaming computer for under that price.
    I personally DO NOT like HP computers at all because they are so quirky and have so many problems and break down easily.

  • Question about size of ints in Xcode

    Hello. I have a a few quick questions about declaring and defining variables and about their size and so forth. The book I'm reading at the moment, "Learn C on the Mac", says the following in reference to the difference between declaring and defining a variable:
    A variable declaration is any statement that specifies a variables name and type. The line *int myInt;* certainly does that. A variable definition is a declaration that causes memory to be allocated for the variable. Since the previous statement does cause memory to be allocated for myInt, it does qualify as a definition.
    I always thought a definition of a variable was a statement that assigned a value to a variable. If a basic declaration like "int myInt;" does allocate memory for the variable and therefore is a definition, can anyone give me an example of a declaration that does not allocate memory for the variable and therefore is not a definition?
    The book goes on, a page or so late, to say this:
    Since myInt was declared to be of type int, and since Xcode is currently set to use 4-byte ints, 4 bytes of memory were reserved for myInt. Since we haven't placed a value in those 4 bytes yet, they could contain any value at all. Some compilers place a value of 0 in a newly allocated variable, but others do not. The key is not to depend on a variable being preset to some specific value. If you want a variable to contain a specific value, assign the value to the variable yourself.
    First, I know that an int can be different sizes (either 4 bytes or 8 bytes, I think), but what does this depend on? I thought it depended on the compiler, but the above quote makes it sound like it depends on the IDE, Xcode. Which is it?
    Second, it said that Xcode is currently set to use 4-byte ints. Does this mean that there is a setting that the user can change to make ints a different size (like 8 bytes), or does it mean that the creators of Xcode currently have it set to use 4-byte ints?
    Third, for the part about some compilers giving a newly allocated variable a value of 0, does this apply to Xcode or any of its compilers? I assume not, but I wanted to check.
    Thanks for all the help, and have a great weekend!

    I always like to think of a "declaration" to be something that makes no changes to the actual code, but just provides visibility so that compilation and/or linking will succeed. The "definition" allocates space.
    You can declare a function to establish it in the namespace for the compiler to find but the linker needs an actual definition somewhere to link against. With a variable, you could also declare a variable as "extern int myvar;". The actual definition "int myvar;" would be somewhere else.
    According to that book, both "extern int myvar;" and "int myvar;" are declarations, but only the latter is a definition. That is a valid way to look at it. Both statements 'delcare' something to the compiler, but on the second one 'define's some actual data.
    First, I know that an int can be different sizes (either 4 bytes or 8 bytes, I think), but what does this depend on? I thought it depended on the compiler, but the above quote makes it sound like it depends on the IDE, Xcode. Which is it?
    An "int" is supposed to be a processor's "native" size and the most efficient data type to use. A compiler may or may not be able to change that, depending on the target and the compiler. If a compiler supports that option and Xcode supports that compiler and that option, then Xcode can control it, via the compiler.
    Second, it said that Xcode is currently set to use 4-byte ints. Does this mean that there is a setting that the user can change to make ints a different size (like 8 bytes), or does it mean that the creators of Xcode currently have it set to use 4-byte ints?
    I think that "setting" is just not specifying any option to explicitly set the size. You can use "-m32" or "-m64" to control this, but I wouldn't recommend it. Let Xcode handle those low-level details.
    Third, for the part about some compilers giving a newly allocated variable a value of 0, does this apply to Xcode or any of its compilers? I assume not, but I wanted to check.
    I don't know for sure. Why would you ask? Are you thinking of including 45 lines of macro declarations 3 levels deep to initialize values based on whether or not a particular compiler/target supports automatic initialization? Xcode current supports GCC 3.3, GCC 4.0, GCC 4.2, LLVM GCC, CLang, and Intel's compiler for building PPC, i386, and x86_64 code in both debug and release, with a large number of optimization options. It doesn't matter what compiler you use or what it's behavior is - initialize your variables in C.

  • Hello , I want to ask some question about ipads \  How powerful is the iPad?  How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web? Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?   please help me :(

    Hello ,
    I want to ask some question about ipads \
    How powerful is the iPad? 
    How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web?
    Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?  
    please help me

    it's less powerful than your average computer. THink of it like a netbook but with a better processor.
    It'll do fine for surfing (although if you browse a lot of flash based sites you will need to get a third party browser since safari doesn't accommodate it)
    You may do OK on reading books, papers or magazines, especially if they have apps, but the ipad's screen is backlit, so it doesn't work well outdoors and you may need to fiddle with the brightness so that you don't get eye strain (it's just like doing too much reading from a computer screen)
    I would say the biggest short comings are data transfer. Apple's preferred work flow is that everything is done via iTunes or the internet....well people dont' always have 100% reliable always on internet access so you can find yourself in a situation where you can't get things on/off the iPad.
    By and large, it's a good device for day to day stuff, but is not a computer replacement.

  • Question about upgrading iTunes multiple computers with shared library

    Greetings,
    I have a question about upgrading to the current version of iTunes.
    Currently, my household uses 3 Mac computers (2 Powerbook 17in laptops and a Mack Mini). We are all (currently) on system 10.4.11 (with iTunes 9.2.1). Between the 3 computers we have a shared iTunes music and video library on a networked high capacity hard drive.
    We recently purchased an iPad. In order to make it easy for updates and to use media from our iTunes shared library I decided that we should upgrade the systems on our home computers to Snow Leopard. I have ensured that all the computers have at lease 2 Gb of RAM and adequate hard drive space.
    The only possible problem I see is that one of the Powerbook laptops uses the old Motorola processor. (This is one of the last Powerbooks to use that processor.) I don’t think this computer can be upgraded to Snow Leopard.
    My question is, if I upgrade 2 of the computers (and iTunes in the process), will I still be able to access the shared iTunes library using the older computer with the older system and iTunes? Will the upgrade process change the iTunes library in such a way that the one older computer will no longer be able to properly access that library?
    Are there any other problems I might encounter having a mixed system/iTunes environment?
    Thank you,
    Tim

    Just a thought. Should I somehow open iTunes on MBP2 using MBP1's Library file??
    both Macs can access the same library file, however, only one at a time !
    to do that, you would ideally have the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) on the external. then, on one Mac after the other, launch iTunes while holding the option key, click on +choose library+ when prompted, and select the iTunes folder on the external.
    or, you could have two separate libraries and keep those in sync using third party tools such as Syncopation, TuneRanger or SuperSync.
    for purchases from the iTunes store, you could set up _*Home Sharing*_ - it can be configured to automatically transfer new purchases to home shared libraries.
    Can I create a script to have MBP1 always save the iTunes Library file on the shared hard drive?
    no need.

  • Question about rendering, it's too slow :( please help.

    i've been trying to find videos explaining how to make rendering faster. Example i make a video that's 10 seconds short just to see how the result is in windows media player, it takes like 10 minutes for it to render.
    I've heard about the ''secret'' menu and i tried it too. However, it's the same result again. Does anybody know how to make previewing and rendering faster.
    Even when i try and preview my work, it takes ages for it to load then be able to preview it normally.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    And for the ''my car doesn't turn up'' statement, how can i know what to specify if this is my first time i ask a question about AE and don't know what to include in my question. 
    Hey iverecords, here is a tip to help us help you by providing the most infos as you can in your question. Because there is never one definitive answer to a question, and because there are millions of hardware/software combinaison, we can't guess what you have, and how you're trying to achieve it.
    So let's take an exemple with your rendering problem.
    Let see what can affect your rendering speed:
    1) your hardware (inculding OS and network if working on network drive)
    Sure, the new fancy processors are faster than yesturday ones. Obviously, running on Windows95 or Windows 7 (same applies for Mac OSX Tiger to OSX Snow Leopard) can make a difference. Same as writing files over a network, or on a usb external drive.
    2) what you are rendering (your composition)
    Applying dozens of effects on a few layers don't render at the same speed than a hundred of layers without effects.
    3) your AE version and settings.
    Every AE release brings new enhancement / speed, so depending on your version there might be that little hepfull setting.
    So as a starter, for us to help you, we need to know these 3 key elements.
    We all have started one day asking questions to get help online, so we all already made that mistake of not giving enough info. So now you know you should always give us that much of info, and then we'll be able to narrow down the problems and help you find the way to the answer.
    Cheers,
    Seb

  • Some basic questions about rmi registry  context  "bind" and "lookup"

    We have more processing to do than can be accomplished with a single computer. To solve the problem I've implemented a distributed computing solution using RMI. (The first time I saw RMI was about 2 weeks ago, so please bear with me!)
    The implementation is a proof of concept not a fully fleshed out system. I have one "Workunit Distributor" computer and any number of "Data Processor" computers all on the same lan segment. "Workunit Distributor" and "Data Processor" computers are both RMI client and server to each other. The "Data Processor" computers are given the ip address and name of the "Data Distributor" on the commandline when they start. They communicate their willingness to receive and process a workunit to the ""Workunit Distributor" via a RMI call. Work units are sent to available "DataProcessors" and results are eventually returned to the "WorkunitDistributor" (minutes or hours later). The model program works quite well, and appears to be capable of doing the processing we need to get done.
    But now that it seems viable, I've been asked to make it a little more scalable, flexible and self configuring. In particular, instead of one "Workunit Distributor", any number of "Workunit Distributors" should be allowed to show up or disappear from the lan at any time and the system should continue to function. I've worked out a good scheme for how this can be done, but I have a couple of questions about the RMI registry (registries?). I'm trying to keep from implementing some functionality that may already be available as a library or subsystem.
    With my current model design, each computer binds to its own registry with a unique name. For instance:
    CRDataProcessorImpl crdpi = new CRDataProcessorImpl(svr);
    Context crDataProcessingContext = new InitialContext();
    crDataProcessingContext.bind("rmi:"+hostName, crdpi);
    Currently the "Data Processors" get the info they need for a Context lookup() of the one and only "Workunit Distributor" from the commandline. And the info the "Workunit Distributor" needs to do a Context lookup() of a "DataProcessor" is passed to it from each "DataProcessor" via a RMI call.
    But in the newer (yet to be implemented) scheme where any and all "Workunit Distributors" show up and disappear whenever they feel like, the naming bootstrapping scheme described above won't work.
    I can imagine a few ways of solving this problem. For instance, having "Workunit Distributors" multicast their contact information on the lan and have a worker thread on each "Data Processor" keep track of the naming information that was multicast. Another alternative (more organized, but more complex) might be to have a dedicated host with a "well known" address and port that "Workunit Distributors" and "Data Processors" could all go to, to register or look up at an application level. Sort of a "domain name service" for RMI. But both these schemes look like a lot of work to implement , debug and maintain.
    The BEST thing would be if there was one plain vanilla RMI registry that was usable by all RMI enabled computers instead of having each computer have its own local name registry. In volume 2 of the Core Java2 book it says that every registry must be local. I'm only hoping there's been progress since the book was published and now a central rmi registry is available.
    If you have any ideas about this I'd like to hear what you know.
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    ps - I don't believe web services, as full featured as it is, is a useful alternative. I'm moving 100's (in the future possibly 1000's) of megabytes back an forth for processing.

    The local bind/rebind/unbind restriction is still there and it will always be there.
    I would look at
    (a) RMI/IIOP, where you use COSNaming as a registry, which doesn't have that registriction, and which also has location-independent object identifiers
    (b) Jini.
