Packt Publishing is pleased to announce Oracle Essbase 11 Development Cookbook, a new Oracle learning resource designed to help developers successfully build and deploy Essbase applications. The book is available now in print, eBook, Kindle and select library formats.
Written in a cookbook style by Jose R. Ruiz, the Oracle Essbase 11 Development Cookbook focuses on the use of a relational data model to build and load an Essbase cube and work with the data elements in Essbase Studio. The book highlights topics such as building the BSO cube, ASO cube, using EAS for development, creating calculation Scripts and using MaxL to automate processes.
Furthermore, a wide variety of well explained functions will help developers improve the design components of a Data Mart, maintain meta-data, and support drill-through reporting. Creating load rules and reporting off an Essbase cube are also explained in a concise manner using step-by-step recipes.
Oracle Essbase is a multi-dimensional Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) server, providing a rich environment for effectively developing custom analytic and enterprise performance management applications.

On the social programme at British Study Centres you will get to visit all of the famous attractions, take day trips to other cities and get to know the other students in the school through our social events. We have just visited Tower Bridge, which is arguably the most famous bridge in the world. Many people call it London Bridge but actually this is the name of the next bridge upstream, which can be quite confusing and people often arrive at London Bridge disappointed to find it looks nothing like the picture When you get to the top of the bridge there are stunning views of the River Thames and many famous London sites.
When you are in London dont miss the Tower Bridge activity. You can check the lift times (when the bridge will open to let boats through) for extra kicks and giggles!

In todays Shelf Awareness for Readers newsletter, editor John Mutter opens with a piece on Amazons new Fire tablet.
Many in the book business worry about power becoming concentrated in the book world. Amazon likes to play rough: recently it spent $5 million to force a referendum in California on a law it didnt like. (The state and Amazon have since come to a compromise.) Publishers say quietly that since Borderss collapse, Amazon has become even more aggressive about wanting better deals. Its also set up its own publishing division and may well publish some books that arent available outside the Amazon e-cosphere. A closed system doesnt bode well for the general book universe, which for its many quirks and flaws, still brings reading pleasure to tens of millions of people.

The fate of the ICT Programme of Study could have been predicted accurately long before Judge Gove donned his black cap and passed the death sentence. After several years of what might be justly described as a “war of attrition”, the weight of the “evidence”, such as it is, made such an outcome unavoidable.
This article is not, to continue the analogy, meant to be the beginning of an appeal process – although there is a Government consultation on the subject which could, in theory, lead to a reversal of the decision to disapply the ICT Programme of Study – but an attempt to at least set the record straight with a few facts. If people wish to say the current ICT Programme of Study is not fit for purpose, that’s up to them, but my contention is that the arguments should be based on what the Programme of Study actually contains. As far as I can see, the reasons that the ICT PoS needed to go are as follows.
Pupils are required to learn Word and Excel
Actually, they’re not. Apart from the f
