Case study.pptx
China enacted economic reforms in 1978 that opened the country to foreign direct investment after 30 years of isolationist policies under communist rule. This attracted many foreign companies due to China's large population and market potential. However, navigating China's unique political and legal systems presented challenges for foreign businesses. The bureaucracy relied more on politics than laws, and the developing legal system lacked comprehensive protections. Corruption was also pervasive due to the government's role in business and weak enforcement. While China has continued liberalizing its economy since joining the WTO, its implementation of obligations has been sluggish and the business environment remains complex.

Roy Den Hollander Ru v. us accntng
- Russia's transition from a centrally planned to market economy has been turbulent, with conflicting forces pushing for rapid vs. slow change and some wanting to return to communism.
- Under communism, all property belonged to the state, and companies focused on output quotas rather than profit. Accounting served tax purposes rather than financial reporting.
- While privatization has progressed, many former state managers still control companies and oppose market reforms. Weak rule of law, corruption, and unstable policies continue to undermine business conditions and investment.

The document discusses the economic and social costs of corruption. It states that corruption corrodes institutions, undermines legitimacy and credibility of the state, discourages investment, and raises costs of doing business. As a result, corruption obstructs economic growth and development, disproportionately impacting the poor. From development agencies' perspectives, corruption reduces impact of international assistance. The document argues that corruption signifies broader governance problems and weaknesses in the rule of law. It notes that solutions must also be broad and will take a long time, as the rule of law is fostered by democratic and accountability reforms brought by society, not just governments.
2010 Russian Banks & Money Laundering
The document discusses money laundering in Russia and its implications for Western countries. It summarizes that Russian laws against money laundering are often not enforced against senior officials and their associates. While Russia complies with international anti-money laundering standards, this may be more for appearances than effectiveness. Major Russian banks and industries have opaque ownership and dealings that likely involve laundering illicit funds and influencing foreign politics.
09 07 2012 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Faulty Powers_ENG
The document analyzes corporate governance issues in Russian companies. It finds that corporate governance quality remains a key factor affecting stock performance and investment risk. Companies in the top quartile of corporate governance ratings significantly outperformed others and market indices over the past three years. For Russia to attract more foreign investment, it needs to improve areas such as ownership rights, transparency, accountability and reduce state influence on companies.

150115 CSIS - Russia and the new reality
Putin's regime in Russia has become increasingly authoritarian in response to street protests and economic troubles. Three potential outcomes are described: 1) the rise of a fascist regime following the model of Ukraine, 2) a liberal revolution led by elites or grassroots groups, or 3) a liberalization initiated by Putin. For change to occur, a vision and leader need to emerge that can gain support from protesters and parts of the elite. Western policies should avoid short-term gains, support Russian activists, and make Ukraine an economic success to undermine Putin's propaganda.
150410 Tufts Fletcher School Can US and Russia be friends
The document discusses views and opinions of Russians on various political topics based on a presentation given in the United States in 2015. It summarizes that most Russians do not believe Russia has a functioning democracy and have little trust in their government, seeing it as acting in its own interests rather than the people's. Additionally, Russians hold mixed views of the United States and their relationship, and generally support Putin's actions in Ukraine while believing Western countries have long acted as warmongers against Russia. The document ends by calling for abandoning attempts to influence Russia and instead focusing on long-term mutual interests and consistency between Western words and actions.

The document summarizes the political situation in Russia, including the ruling political regime, economic challenges, and the protest movement. It notes that the protest movement is dominated by a new post-industrial middle class dissatisfied with corruption and lack of political freedom. While initially united, the protest movement has split between neoliberals and leftists. Traditional political parties have remained distant from the protests due to conservative voters and Kremlin counterstrategies. The forecast predicts continued small protests in Moscow and potential regional unrest unless political and economic reforms are implemented.
Harvard Law School - Russian Innovation Ecosystem. Past, Present, Future
The document provides an overview of Russia's national innovation ecosystem and history. It discusses how Russia historically competed with the West in areas like railways, industry, and space but that its system collapsed in the 1990s following the USSR's dissolution. It outlines current strengths in IT, telecom, materials and efforts to boost innovation through new funding mechanisms, legislation and initiatives like Skolkovo which aims to create a technology hub and attract international businesses and talent to Russia. However, it notes ongoing challenges including a lack of experienced entrepreneurs, international business connections, and disconnects between education, research and industry.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
An All-Around Benchmark of the DBaaS Market
The entire database market is moving towards Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS), resulting in a heterogeneous DBaaS landscape shaped by database vendors, cloud providers, and DBaaS brokers. This DBaaS landscape is rapidly evolving and the DBaaS products differ in their features but also their price and performance capabilities. In consequence, selecting the optimal DBaaS provider for the customer needs becomes a challenge, especially for performance-critical applications.
To enable an on-demand comparison of the DBaaS landscape we present the benchANT DBaaS Navigator, an open DBaaS comparison platform for management and deployment features, costs, and performance. The DBaaS Navigator is an open data platform that enables the comparison of over 20 DBaaS providers for the relational and NoSQL databases.
This talk will provide a brief overview of the benchmarked categories with a focus on the technical categories such as price/performance for NoSQL DBaaS and how ScyllaDB Cloud is performing.

Lee Barnes - Path to Becoming an Effective Test Automation Engineer.pdf
So… you want to become a Test Automation Engineer (or hire and develop one)? While there’s quite a bit of information available about important technical and tool skills to master, there’s not enough discussion around the path to becoming an effective Test Automation Engineer that knows how to add VALUE. In my experience this had led to a proliferation of engineers who are proficient with tools and building frameworks but have skill and knowledge gaps, especially in software testing, that reduce the value they deliver with test automation.
In this talk, Lee will share his lessons learned from over 30 years of working with, and mentoring, hundreds of Test Automation Engineers. Whether you’re looking to get started in test automation or just want to improve your trade, this talk will give you a solid foundation and roadmap for ensuring your test automation efforts continuously add value.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Getting the Most Out of ScyllaDB Monitoring: ShareChat's Tips
ScyllaDB monitoring provides a lot of useful information. But sometimes it’s not easy to find the root of the problem if something is wrong or even estimate the remaining capacity by the load on the cluster. This talk shares our team's practical tips on: 1) How to find the root of the problem by metrics if ScyllaDB is slow 2) How to interpret the load and plan capacity for the future 3) Compaction strategies and how to choose the right one 4) Important metrics which aren’t available in the default monitoring setup.
MySQL InnoDB Storage Engine: Deep Dive - Mydbops
This presentation, titled "MySQL - InnoDB" and delivered by Mayank Prasad at the Mydbops Open Source Database Meetup 16 on June 8th, 2024, covers dynamic configuration of REDO logs and instant ADD/DROP columns in InnoDB.
This presentation dives deep into the world of InnoDB, exploring two ground-breaking features introduced in MySQL 8.0:
• Dynamic Configuration of REDO Logs: Enhance your database's performance and flexibility with on-the-fly adjustments to REDO log capacity. Unleash the power of the snake metaphor to visualize how InnoDB manages REDO log files.
• Instant ADD/DROP Columns: Say goodbye to costly table rebuilds! This presentation unveils how InnoDB now enables seamless addition and removal of columns without compromising data integrity or incurring downtime.
Key Learnings:
• Grasp the concept of REDO logs and their significance in InnoDB's transaction management.
• Discover the advantages of dynamic REDO log configuration and how to leverage it for optimal performance.
• Understand the inner workings of instant ADD/DROP columns and their impact on database operations.
• Gain valuable insights into the row versioning mechanism that empowers instant column modifications.
Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
