BaxTek Solutions, (www.BaxTek.com) a leading Systems Integrators has found that many clients in the manufacturing, distribution, and warehousing sectors are gaining value from RF handhelds. Among the many platform choices for directing work in a distribution centers, adding voice to handhelds offers options for making a team more efficient and extending performance.

Wayne Baxter, President of the BaxTek Solutions noted, “Deciding on the best fit can be challenging.  Clients must weigh the cost/benefit and performance tradeoffs between using voice-only wearable computers and voice-enabled handheld devices.   There are many processes inside the warehouse that can be performed more efficiently with the implementation of Voice-Directed Distribution. We’ve found that for our clients Vocollect offers a variety of commercial, off-the-shelf applications to add voice to order selection, replenishments, put-aways, transfers and receiving.”

Baxter added, “Extend Voice-Directed Distribution goes beyond intensive, full-time use to other applications where voice adds value. Now the same people who perform multiple operations can use screen displays for some applications, and add voice for others – choosing the right tool for the job.   Companies are able to enhance performance from receiving/loading to dock operations by combining voice into handheld applications.  Distribution centers combine full-time voice-only users and voice-enabled handheld users operating seamlessly under one roof. They use a single WMS connection, a single user and device management console; and the same standard applications – all the way down to the voice prompts. Voice-directed warehouse solutions have empowered companies in new and exciting ways, and they achieve efficiencies that translate into true operational gains at all levels.”

Windows 7 continues using a registry similar to that of windows XP. In the same way, with frequent installing or removing Programs, the registry will keep bloating, which will not only be a waste of hard disk space, but will affect system boot speed and the efficiency of the registry access in programs running. So, the first thing to maintain the registry is cleaning up it. I will introduce two ways.

Method 1:Clean up registry manually, which contains 5 steps

Method 2 Clean up registry by a professional registry cleaner

Method 1: Clean up registry manually

Step 1: Rebuild registry

The registry file use a way similar to database records that when delete a key at a certain time, just removed the logo, but not the actual information. The information is still retained in the registry file; of course, the space occupied by the key will not be released. After a period of time, the registry will be significant growth in volume. However, rebuilding the registry is a good method to reduce the volume of registry.

First, click START menu, run the regedit program, export the whole registry from the Registry menu and then save it as new.reg. Then go into the state of pure DOS by using use DOS boot disk, and rebuild the registry through the command “C: Windows regedit / c new.reg”. The parameter “/ c” express that re-generate the entire registry from the specified file in the later. The reconstruction of the registry files are often much smaller than the original ones, so you can optimize the registry.

Step 2: Delete useless registry files

There are many useless programs in Windows registry. You can find and delete those sub keys which have been deleted under primary keys “HKET_LOCAL_MACHINESoftware” and “HKET_CURRENT_USERSoftware. And you can also delete unnecessary key values. For example, you can delete languages and input methods under the primary key “HKET_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetControlKeyboardlayouts”.

Step 3: Remove invalid files association

The contents related with files association the registry file are stored in the key “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT”, whose “a-z” section is used to define the file type and “A-Z” section is used to record the application that open the files. Generally speaking, when the second section of the keys opens a suspicious key, if there is no content in sub key, then this key is empty.

Step 4: Remove rudimental key of uninstalled software

Much software will leave some useless information in the registry files after uninstallation. They are generally stored in the keys “HLEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software” and “HKEY_CURRENT_USERS _T (Software AppEvents EventsLabels . Default”. You can find and completely remove the residual information of the uninstalled software.

Step 5: Delete redundant DLL files

A number of useless DLL file information or VxD file information can be found through registry, after delete which the system can improve the operation efficiency . The specific approach is to open key “KHEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software Microsoft CurrentVersion SharedDLLS” in the registry, the project under the sub-key contains the number of applications that shared this DLL files. If a DLL file corresponding to the number zero, it means that it is no longer useful to system, you can delete it without worry.

Method 2:Clean up registry by a professional registry cleaner

The method 1 seems too complicated to many people who are unfamiliar with windows registry. They may easily remove important keys. The best choice I think is to use a professional registry cleaner.

To choose a registry cleaner, the most important thing is that it should be a safe and stable one to operating system. It won’t delete useful files from our computers and then strongly impact computer performance. It should have a powerful function of fixing registry errors and optimizing registry. Personally, I like Wondershare registry optimizer which has integrated functions like clean and optimize registry, IE manager, Stat up manager, uninstall manager and back up tools. It is very easy to use, just click START button, your registry will be clean up soon. What’s more, you can use its additional functions to optimize registry and system. For example, Wondershare registry optimizer has a fixing function, by which you can fix registry errors.

It is very easy to use, and can be divided into 4 parts: registry cleaner, privacy cleaner, shortcuts cleaner and restore.

I will introduce the operation of the main cleaning function.

registry cleaner is used to scan and clean your cluttered registry. Simply click the scan button to run a comprehensive or customized scanning through Windows registry.

After scanning your Registry, there will be a brief report for it. Click Continue button to clean the unnecessary information.

Click continue button, you will see all errors with different risk ranks and you can choose to repair them or not.

Click repair button, you will see the same dialogue window like the below one. You have easily and quickly fix all your registry errors.

The registry optimizer can also optimize system, clean privacy, remove useless shortcuts, and make backup for your computer. If you want to know more information about it, just have a try.

Are you experiencing a runtime error 102? Runtime error 102 is a very general trouble for Windows users which crashes occasionally. They are normally caused by problems within the Windows registry, where the runtime files are located. No matter what, it is still an error – something you shouldn’t have to deal with, and I will tell you how to deal with runtime error 102.

The Windows registry – the unknown important part of any computer, could be the main culprit of the runtime error 102 in a computer. Invalid entries left by bad installs, orphaned embedded keys and null values left behind by removed programs are just some of problems that can cause the 102 error. Add to that the possibility of adware, malware and viruses going deep into the registry and painting it gaudy colors, adding code and fragmenting the entire registry are core causes of runtime error 102.

Runtime error 102 originate in the registry, every time you install or uninstall a program, a ‘signature’ of the process was registered in the Windows registry. With so many combinations of records that overlap each other – especially warm installation, you will get a registry that is full of broken entries. These corrupted files will make Windows confused every time you try to start any program for that matter.

What you need to do is to also, get a good registry cleaner to clean out the problems that it has placed in your registry. If you do ignore this, you will be affected by either the same few problems cropping up or a global slowdown of your computer system. A registry cleaner is a good ‘minesweeper’ of problems left behind by viruses, malware and adware which have been removed from your system. There are many available online and it is just a matter of logging on and downloading them to make Runtime Error 102 disappear for good.

If you want to check your computer for runtime error 102 then you can download a rated registry cleaner and scan your computer for Free. Not only fixing the runtime error 102, you will notice a jump in your overall computer speed.

Airsoft, like paintball, is a sport usually played outdoors and can be dangerous. So getting the right equipment so that you are prepared to play, and kept safe is important. Let’s go over some of the gear that can really take your airsoft play to the next level.

Face Mask

Arguably the most valuable protection gear in airsoft, the face mask will serve to protect your eyes and face from injury by airsoft BBs and other obstructions in the bush. A full face mask is recommended, however as a minimum you should have the goggles in order to protect your eyes. Losing an eye in an airsoft game would just be senseless.

Tactical Vest

For mil-sim games, the tactical vest will serve as your carry on in the field. Getting a tactical vest with many pockets for storing extra clips, BB rounds, flashlights, knives, radios and perhaps even a snack is worth its weight in gold. Also, with higher end vests, the thick material and supplies you are carry will serve to help protect you from getting hit and perhaps hurt from an enemy player.

Holsters

Depending on your intents, there are lots of holsters to choose from. For mil-sims, a leg holster might be the preferred holster, due to the player already having a tactical vest, and not able to handle an additional load on his shoulders. But for police training, a shoulder holster is ideal, providing not only a holster for the airsoft pistol, but also a compartment for additional clips, etc on the other shoulder. When combined with a belt holster, the police trainee can store that extra sidearm that may be necessary in an advanced situation training session.

“Knowledge has to be improved, challenged and increased constantly or it vanishes” – Peter F. Drucker. Choo Sense –Making knowledge management model id focused on three important aspects Sense Making, Knowledge has to be improved, challenged and increased constantly or it vanishes knowledge creating and Decision making skills. But there is another knowledge management model called Boisot I-Space model which is based on the key concept of information which is good and that is different from physical asset. It was proposed and introduced by Boisot for refining Knowledge management processes and strategies for the development of information and knowledge base to circulate a consistent flow of information between different dimensions.

Boisot distinguish information from data by emphasizing that information is what an observer will extract from data as a function of his or her expectations or prior knowledge. This model can be perceived as a three dimensional cube with three different dimensions: from uncodified to codified, from concrete to abstract, from undiffused to diffuse.

Boisot proposes a Social Learning cycle (SLC) that adopts the I-Space to model the dynamic flow of knowledge through a series of six stages. First stage is scanning here the wisdom is gained generally available or diffused data. Second stage is problem solving, problems are solved offering structure and coherence to these insights as knowledge becomes codified. Third stage is abstraction, here the newly codified wisdom is generalized to a wide range of situations as knowledge becomes more abstract. Fourth stage is diffusion, here the new wisdom are shared with a target population in a codified and abstract form as knowledge becomes diffused. Fifth stage is Absorption, here the newly codified insights are applied to a variety of situations generating new learning experience as knowledge is absorbed and produce learnt behavior and so uncodified or tacit. Sixth and the final stage is impacting, here the abstract knowledge becomes fixed in concrete practices, for example in artifacts, rule or behavior patterns as knowledge becomes concrete.

In software development, Boisot’s knowledge model consider organizations a living organisms. Their process of growing and developing knowledge assets within organizations is always changing.

That means that companies need to adopt a dynamic knowledge management strategy which accommodates the dynamic nature of the organizational learning cycle.

“Checking the results of a decision against its expectations shows executives what their strengths are, where they need to improve, and where they lack knowledge or information – “Peter F Drucker.

The closest relationship of a software company is with its client and to maintain a close knit relationship, the company needs to understand as its utmost priority to implement and execute the client’s requirement. At a stage when Business firms are striving to become unique achievers, a simple software package with readymade applications may restrict their winning possibilities.

For procuring uniqueness in Business objectives, customized or customer-friendly software is the best option. The role played by custom software development brings output as desired by the client. Customized software is prepared on the basis of the requirements and preferences of the client.

Tailor-made software prepared using the latest technology, only for the client’s purpose and not for the masses is what custom software development. Any complication or disapproval of the client that stems out can be modified at the time of preparation of the software with the client’s consent and this is where the foremost advantage of custom software development lies.

Once the product is made and sold to the client, there is no need to modify the custom software as it is already made for perfection. In case of a pre-developed software package, a client may have to go through a rigorous process of restructuring their objective in order to compliment the software application (which is generally not preferred).

Otherwise, they may have to contact the software manufacturer for modifications in the existing software to suit the requirements. This steals a lot of valuable time and money. The customized software is made for a single buyer or a group (a business firm) and thus the entire cost of development has to be borne by one customer which is not the case with off-the-shelf software.

Post-development, custom software saves time as the client does not require modifying the package. The time consumed during the preparation of custom software may be more. But, this should not be a hurdle in choosing between pre-developed and custom software for a business firm’s specific purpose as the product’s life cycle may stretch during the development stages. And why does it happen?

This is because; to procure perfect custom software as the end product requires rigorous probing to understand, analyze and accurately implement the ideas to shape up into a product. Again, pre-developed software may benefit in less expenditure, but the high cost during the development of custom software is due to intrinsic research and excess requirements as the product has to be a client desired output.

The output brings desired business results. Some of the examples of custom software development include software for mobile phones (phone access, automated mail triggers on event, interfacing with extreme systems and high security reports), custom data base design and web applications (constructing company websites).

A dedicated custom software company stays in constant touch with the client via tele-conference, phone or email and chat, irrespective of being offshore or onshore. This is the most important task as the needs can be communicated frequently and no scope for doubts is created. Both pre-development and post-development of the custom software require communication.

The former would provide the software company with information needed to start the development and the latter would be required to explain the working of a software application and also to remove any possible discrepancies.

The utilization of custom software procures faster, quality business results for the cost savings. A process-driven working model is followed by such companies which also involves pilot run and quality assurance tests.

The team involved in developing custom software has sound domain knowledge and also is well aware of the competitors in the business. In a fast paced business world where every firm is ready to outdo the other, working with a software that suits and is modified to the company’s needs and preferences is a viable option or lets say is a customized option.

Enterprise resource planning is fully integrated software that has functionality for all the core aspects of business and integrates all the departments of the organization while customer relationship management application or software focuses on the activities related to customers like, quotes, contracts, service, reminders, service reminders etc. ERP ensures better and real time integration and communication between all the departments of the organization for increasing profitability while CRM enhances customer relationship management, acts as a front desk of the organization and an information center for sales people. Some critical information which can be very useful for the sales people but may not be available at the right time due to slow processing of the data is avoided with the use of CRM software.

CRM software alone may not be the solution for all the problems necessary to be resolved for better business. That is where ERP comes in, its capability to bring the other modules of the organization like manufacturing, product development, marketing, warehouse, inventory etc under one umbrella provides the link to CRM application to look into the organization for updated information to provide it to its user. If an organization uses CRM with ERP, for every new order the CRM application can communicate with the warehouse for the availability of the required stocks and if ready stocks are not available then with the production module to check its availability at the earliest and can provide its customer the exact shipping date of the product at one instance. Whole of this activity can be done without any manual interference which not only saves valuable man hours but organizations can be assured of 24 hours working and support to their valuable customers.

ERP and CRM software can work independently too but together they provide the edge which an organization needs to increase its business. The enhanced and proper working within the organization and real time complete information to the sales people can help them in generating the new business. Not only for new business these two software together also help in better customer retention for regular business. CRM can help in making customer aware about new products, its qualities and comparisons which can make the task of sales people easier. For service based industries CRM can be more than simple software as it can ensure prompt and timely services with regular reminders and can provide to staff the necessary details of previous calls and support given to a particular customer.

Customer feedbacks, inquiries and complaints are always in the form of unstructured data but it can be an extremely valuable source of information and basis of the organization’s new strategy and planning to have more and more satisfied customers. CRM software can transform this data into valuable information without any manual interference and time wastage. This information supplied to the management can be used to make changes in the organizations working and can be easily implemented with the help of ERP software.

CRM and ERP software are complimentary to each other and can work together for better business management of the organization in any industry. Some ERP software come with inbuilt CRM module in the main application while most of the ERP software provide this software as separate module which can communicate with different ERP software.
