  • Powershell Scripting Language Course Proposal for Tallinn University of Technology
    TALLINN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY School of Information Technologies Riivo Kiljak 178071IABM POWERSHELL SCRIPTING LANGUAGE COURSE PROPOSAL FOR TALLINN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY Master’s thesis Supervisor: Siim Vene MSc Tallinn 2019 TALLINNA TEHNIKAULIKOOL¨ Infotehnoloogia teaduskond Riivo Kiljak 178071IABM POWERSHELLI SKRIPTIMISKEELE KURSUSE ETTEPANEK TALLINNA TEHNIKAULIKOOLILE¨ Magistrito¨o¨ Juhendaja: Siim Vene MSc Tallinn 2019 Author’s Declaration of Originality I hereby certify that I am the sole author of this thesis. All the used materials, references to the literature and the work of others have been referred to. This thesis has not been presented for examination anywhere else. Author: Riivo Kiljak 07.05.2019 3 Abstract In the thesis, a recommendation is made to establish a new course at TalTech. The course is intended to teach the PowerShell scripting language to students, most importantly in the IT Systems Administration programme. Course material is proposed in the form of lecture slides, home assignments and knowledge tests. All three of which are available in the appendices of the paper. Design science is used to pass iterations of improving the content prior the the paper publishing. Academic literature is analysed to determine the included and excluded topics and the teaching methodology. More- over, input is acquired from scrutinising public information on Microsoft’s official PowerShell courses and interviewing subject matter experts who use PowerShell at local companies. The course material is provided written in LATEX which means that it can be conveniently modified, version controlled and distributed in the PDF format. Although the proposed course is seen as an online course hosted on Moodle, argumentation is made suggesting a combination with classroom seminars is likely to result in better learning outcomes at the cost of scalability.

  • What Is Activex: What Does Activex Do? Benefits of Activex
    Khalil Rehman December 2, 2003 What is ActiveX: Microsoft® ActiveX™ is a set of technologies from Microsoft that enables interactive content for the World Wide Web. With ActiveX, Web sites come alive with multimedia effects, interactive objects, and sophisticated applications that create a user experience comparable to that of high-quality CD-ROM titles. ActiveX provides the glue that ties together a wide assortment of technology building blocks to enable these "active" Web sites. (Microsoft Corporation, July 1996) What does ActiveX do? It is designed to increase the dynamic designs of a website. The controls are components that can easily be inserted into a Web page or other application to reuse packaged functionality someone else has programmed. Benefits of ActiveX Some benefits of ActiveX are, • Active web content which attracts the user and retain their interest in the web pages. • Open cross platform support on Macintosh, Windows and Unix operating systems • The tools in which programmer wants to build ActiveX controls are very common and familiar like Visual Basic, Visual C++®, Borland Delphi, Borland C++, Java™, and Java-enabled tools • Existing inventory of ActiveX controls available today for immediate use by Web producers ActiveX VS Java ActiveX is a Microsoft platform dependent and works on window based machine and only work in the internet explorer browser. Once ActiveX controls install and run on the machine it doesn’t need to install and run again, saving the download time after first use. Java has been developed to work on any kind of machine and operating system and do not need of any kind of plug-in.

  • CONESTOGA CABINET ASSEMBLY INFORMATION What Is Included with Your Cabinets: What Is Not Included with Your Cabinets
    CONESTOGA CABINET ASSEMBLY INFORMATION We suggest you view the 4 minute assembly demonstration video on our web site to see how easily our high end custom cabinets are assembled. Before continuing, it is important to realize that Conestoga’s RTA cabinet is targeted at cabinet shops who would rather use this system than build their own custom cabinets from scratch. On one hand, this indicates that it’s a VERY high quality cabinet. On the other hand, it means Conestoga has made some assumptions that its user has certain level of cabinet making skills and knowledge which most homeowners may not possess. As a result, we feel the assembly instructions Conestoga details in their guide are incomplete. Therefore, we have compiled the following assembly information from our years of assembly experience with this product. Remember, as opposed to other Conestoga Re-sellers or sales agents, we actually use the product every day. So, if you have a question that is not answered here, just give us a call and we can talk you through it, send you images from our shop floor, diagrams or even helpful hardware items to assist you. If it gets frustrating, take some time away and give us a call or shoot us an email. Rest assured, we’ll get you through it! What is Included with Your Cabinets: Everything necessary to build the cabinet box. Drawer glides and necessary hardware/screws. Hinges and necessary hardware/screws. Doors, drawer fronts and drawer boxes. What is not included with Your Cabinets: Screws required to mount drawer fronts to the drawer boxes (we use self tapping wood screws 1-1/4” long, available at local home centers or hardware stores.
