Ipad & Iphone Tips- 2

By Anonymous
One of the biggest concerns with smartphones these days is battery life. There are many different ways to help prolong your battery life, however I find turning off any services you are not using will help make the biggest impact. Some of these services include WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and your Mobile Network. The reason these services kill your battery life very quickly is because all the services I just named are always searching for a signal even if you are not using them. If you turn these services off when not in use the battery will be able to use its power more efficiently allowing for a longer battery life. All of these services can be turned on and off through the settings app, however some are easier to find than others.

WiFi:
1. Open the Settings app
2. WiFi will be the second choice from the top. Next to the word WiFi will either be "OFF" or "ON"
3. Tap on the word WiFi to bring up another screen where you can switch from "ON" to "OFF" or "OFF" to "ON"

Bluetooth:
1. To turn off the Bluetooth follow the same procedure as WiFi but Bluetooth will be right below WiFi.

Cellular Data (Mobile Network):
1. Again follow the same procedure as WiFi and Bluetooth but this time Cellular data will be below Bluetooth.

GPS (Location Services):
1. Open the Settings app
2. Scroll down till you see the privacy option. Tap it.
3. There you will find the option to turn Location Services "ON" or "OFF"

*I also want to note that if you are running an older version of the operating system then the WiFi tutorial is the only one that will work for you. To turn off the other three you must do the following:

1.Open Settings
2. Go to General. Tap It
3. On the General page you will find Location Services and Bluetooth.
4. If you press Network that will take you to another page where you can turn off Mobile Network

Databases - Basics

By
In the previous post ( Databases Introduction )  we looked at different types of databases and simple concepts of tables. In this section, we will look at some basics of databases- tables, inner joins and outer joins. The syntax of SQL used here is for Oracle. However, it is very similar in all other databases such as MySQL, MS SQLServer, Postgres, etc.. Tables We will create two tables by using the SQL statements below:   create table customer (cust_id number(4,0) not null, customer_name varchar2(60) not null); create table invoice (invoice_id number(4) not null, cust_id number(4) not null , invoice_total number(10,2) default 0.00, paid_ind char(1)); In the first SQL we create the table called Customer with the column names cust_id and customer_name. Observe that we do not want to store null values in each of the columns in the customer table. In the second SQL we create the table invoice, which has its columns and also the cust_id column from the customer ...

Hibernate-Secondary Table Annotation..

By
When using Hibernate with annotation, SecondaryTable needs to be used carefully while using the Discriminator. We assume that there is a table called Inventory which is the parent table that has common elements including Id, createDate, modifiedDate, SKU#, and productType. The other tables, which are children of the Inventory table, are TV_Inventory, DVD_inventory etc.. In this example, we consider TV_Inventory which inherits from Inventory (in terms of objects). @Entity @Table(name = "INVENTORY") @Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.JOINED) @DiscriminatorColumn(name = "PRODUCT_TYPE", discriminatorType = DiscriminatorType.STRING, length = 20) @SequenceGenerator(name = "InventorySequence", sequenceName = "INV_SEQ", allocationSize = 1) public abstract class Inventory {  // getters and setters with other annotations for the columns and relevant methods. }   Consider the child object associated with the table TV_INVENTORY. The outli...

Databases - Introduction

By
Database In the information age (which started in 1940 or so when the US census used the first computer), a database is referred to as a silo of information which has data stored in a particular way. This makes stored data relevant to employees in order to make business decisions. Databases are a specific type of model. Models are any storage repository (server) which stores data whether it is a relational database, object-oriented database, flat or just files. In this article, we confine ourselves to relational databases like MySQL, MS SQLServer20xx, Oracle, Sybase, MS Access and HSQLDB. These are the most common relational databases currently in use. Non-Relational Databases Before we move onto relational databases we will first discuss non-relational ones. These demanded a lot of sort to find code by programmers in order to retrieve the data to the users. Consider the US phone book and the number 307-456-7892. In order to search the phone book to retrieve who is associated to ...
