  • Microsoft Update Blue Screen Error Fixing BSOD
    kyoceradocumentsolutions.us Microsoft Update Blue Screen Error Fixing BSOD March 2021 Microsoft Update Blue Screen Error What is causing the Blue Screen error when I print using the KX Driver? Kyocera as well as many other companies began getting reports of Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) incidents when printing. Microsoft released 2 updates this week, KB5000802 and KB5000808. The updates caused the crash. What has Microsoft done since this was reported? Microsoft has removed both updates from the automatic pushed update list. If your PC has not yet downloaded the update it will not install them. If you manually update your system from within Windows Update the 2 problem updates are still there and can be manually selected and installed. Do not do that until a complete fix is released if your PC is used for printing. Microsoft has left them up for manual install for users that have systems not used for printing. How do we fix a PC that has already been updated? The best solution is to uninstall the 2 Updates. Follow the directions below and remember to reboot when done. 1. Open a Command Prompt with Administrator rights. Click on the Start button and type cmd. The following will be displayed. 2 Microsoft Update Blue Screen Error 2. Click Run as Administrator on the right to open the Command Prompt Window. Accept the prompt to open with elevated rights and make changes to the computer. 3.

  • Automatically Detecting ORM Performance Anti-Patterns on C# Applications Tuba Kaya Master's Thesis 23–09-2015
    Automatically Detecting ORM Performance Anti-Patterns on C# Applications Tuba Kaya Master's Thesis 23–09-2015 Master Software Engineering University of Amsterdam Supervisors: Dr. Raphael Poss (UvA), Dr. Giuseppe Procaccianti (VU), Prof. Dr. Patricia Lago (VU), Dr. Vadim Zaytsev (UvA) i Abstract In today’s world, Object Orientation is adopted for application development, while Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) are used as default on the database layer. Unlike the applications, RDBMSs are not object oriented. Object Relational Mapping (ORM) tools have been used extensively in the field to address object-relational impedance mismatch problem between these object oriented applications and relational databases. There is a strong belief in the industry and a few empirical studies which suggest that ORM tools can cause decreases in application performance. In this thesis project ORM performance anti-patterns for C# applications are listed. This list has not been provided by any other study before. Next to that, a design for an ORM tool agnostic framework to automatically detect these anti-patterns on C# applications is presented. An application is developed according to the designed framework. With its implementation of analysis on syntactic and semantic information of C# applications, this application provides a foundation for researchers wishing to work further in this area. ii Acknowledgement I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor Dr. Raphael Poss for his excellent support through the learning process of this master thesis. Also, I like to thank Dr. Giuseppe Procaccianti and Prof. Patricia Lago for their excellent supervision and for providing me access to the Green Lab at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
