  • Name Synopsis Description
    DECKMATE(1) DECKMATE(1) NAME deckmate − simulate line printer paper output in PostScript SYNOPSIS deckmate [−i input_file.txt][−o output_file.ps][−C[C] [c1[,c2[,...[,c12]]]]] [−l {f |c|r}] [−c R,G,B][−F list- ing_font][−f nob[order]] [−f noc[olumns]] [−f nop[agenumbers]] [−t n1,n2,...] [−w] [DD=[step- name.]ddname] DESCRIPTION deckmate(1) reads a plain text program file and generates a PostScript output that simulates 80- and 132-column line printer paper,with alternating sets of three lines of white paper and three lines of colored paper.Output pages show66lines of input text per sheet as on line printer paper.Bydefault, each page prints with column column headings numbered from 01 through 80 or 132, and with a border around the listing area. The −f noborder option turns offborder printing, and the −f nocolumns option turns offthe column number heading. The page number prints at the bottom of each page unless disabled with the -f nopagenumbers option. The default output is 80 columns in portrait mode. The "−w"(wide) option selects 132 column output in landscape mode. Pages are scaled to fit on U.S. letter and A4 paper. Special cases for FORTRAN, COBOL, and RPG reproduce vertical lines between columns corresponding to fields on programming template forms for early fixed-format versions of those languages. These lines can be especially advantageous when examining RPG, which still uses fixed-form statements. The −t option allows adding dashed gray lines at additional, user-selectable column boundaries. Among other uses, these customized column markings can delineate fields of fixed-format data records.

  • Comparison of Static Analysis Tools for Quality Measurement of RPG Programs
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by SZTE Publicatio Repozitórium - SZTE - Repository of Publications Comparison of Static Analysis Tools for Quality Measurement of RPG Programs Zolt´anT´oth1, L´aszl´oVid´acs2, and Rudolf Ferenc1 1 Department of Software Engineering, University of Szeged, Hungary [email protected], [email protected] 2 MTA-SZTE Research Group on Artificial Intelligence, Hungary [email protected] Abstract. The RPG programming language is a popular language em- ployed widely in IBM i mainframes nowadays. Legacy mainframe systems that evolved and survived the past decades usually data intensive and even business critical applications. Recent, state of the art quality assur- ance tools are mostly focused on popular languages like Java, C++ or Python. In this work we compare two source code based quality man- agement tools for the RPG language. The study is focused on the data obtained using static analysis, which is then aggregated to higher level quality attributes. SourceMeter is a command line tool-chain capable to measure various source attributes like metrics and coding rule viola- tions. SonarQube is a quality management platform with RPG language support. To facilitate the objective comparison, we used the SourceMe- ter for RPG plugin for SonarQube, which seamlessly integrates into the framework extending its capabilities. The evaluation is built on analysis success and depth, source code metrics, coding rules and code duplica- tions. We found that SourceMeter is more advanced in analysis depth, product metrics and finding duplications, while their performance of cod- ing rules and analysis success is rather balanced.

  • Firm Technology Upgrading Through Emerging Work
    Firm Technology Upgrading Through Emerging Work Enghin Atalay Sarada November 2, 2020 Abstract We propose a new measure of firms’technology adoption, based on the types of em- ployees they seek. We construct firm-year level measures of emerging and disappearing work using newspaper job ads posted between 1940 and 2000. Firms that post ads for emerging work tend to be younger, more R&D intensive, have faster growth, and are more likely to survive. We develop a model – consistent with these patterns – with incumbent job vintage upgrading and firm entry and exit. Our estimated model indi- cates that 55 percent of upgrading occurs through the entry margin, with incumbents accounting for the remaining 45 percent. 1 Introduction How do new technologies displace old ones? This a foundational question for the fields of economic growth, innovation, and management. New technologies do not spontaneously diffuse across firms and industries. Rather, in the initial stages of a technology’slife cycle, certain firms serve as early adopters. Measuring firms’ technology adoption is crucial for analyses of innovation at all levels of aggregation. At the firm level, the decision to adopt a new technology in lieu of an existing one is risky, but with potentially high rewards. At Atalay: Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia; Sarada: Department of Management and Human Re- sources, Wisconsin School of Business. We thank seminar audiences at the 12th Annual Conference on Innovation Economics, the 2019 Society of Economic Dynamics meetings, the Bank of Mexico, Clemson University, Drexel University, Indiana University, the University of Western Australia, the University of Wisconsin, Uppsala University, and, in particular, Sara Moreira and Sebastian Sotelo for helpful discussions throughout the early stages of this project.

  • What's New and Exciting in RPG
    What's New and Exciting in RPG (AKA Scott Goes Crazy.) Presented by Scott Klement http://www.scottklement.com © 2016-2019, Scott Klement There's a band called 1023 MB. They haven't had any gigs yet. This Session Is Organized by Feature This session is organized by feature… …not by release. i Nex i Next IBM i 7.4 IBM i 7.3 IBM i 7.2 A chart at the end will detail the releases. IBM i 7.1 IBM i 6.1 2 IBM No Longer Waits For Next Release This is really, really cool! • Prior to IBM i 7.1 ("V7R1") to get new RPG feature, you waited for next release. • Couldn't install it right away? Had to wait longer. • Needed to support both newer and older releases? Wait longer. • Could be 5+ years before you could use a feature you wanted. This is no longer true! • Starting with Open Access (should've been a 7.2 feature) most new stuff is available on all supported releases! • Fully free format • DATA-INTO • Nested Data Structures 3 Is This Good Or Bad? Definitely good for developers? • especially software companies. Does it look bad for IBM? • why should people update releases? • do people perceive IBM's RPG commitment as "less"? For this reason, IBM holds back at least some of the updates to the next release. 4 Support in SEU There is none. SEU has not had updates since the release of IBM i 6.1 That was March 21 2008! Use the current version of RDi, or a 3 rd party tool (ILEditor, MiWorkplace) 5 OVERLOAD (TO BE RELEASED IN NOVEMBER 2019) PTF for 7.4, 7.3 • OVERLOAD keyword allows multiple "candidate prototypes" to be considered • RPG automatically picks

    Programming Skills: A look back to peer into the future. Pete Massiello iTech Solutions [email protected] Twitter: PeteM59 1 Prehistory • The first Programming languages predate the computer. • Languages were codes • 1890 Herman Hollerith – Census data Early programming When do we start? • The Analytical Engine, an important step in the history of computers, is a design for a mechanical general-purpose computer first described by English mathematician Charles Babbage in 1837. It was the successor to Babbage's difference engine, a design for a mechanical calculator. The Analytical Engine incorporated an arithmetical unit, control flow in the form of conditional branching and loops, and integrated memory, making it the first Turing-complete design for a general-purpose computer. • Programming supposed to be by punch cards. Analytical Engine: Built 63 years later ENIAC • Designed in 1942 General-purpose Electronic computer • Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC). • Enormous speed advantage by using digital electronics with no moving parts. • Called Project-PX as its code name. • Started in 1943, completed in 1946 costing $500,000 ( $6,000,000 in 2010 dollars). • Designed to calculate artillery firing tables for the Army. • First project was computations for the hydrogen bomb. • Decimal based. Programming the ENIAC Operating ENIACs main control panel EDVAC • Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer • Binary serial computer with automatic addition, subtraction, multiplication, programmed division and automatic checking with an ultrasonic serial memory. • Capacity of 1,000 44-bit words, later set to 1,024 words: 5.5KB • 6,000 vacuum tubes, 12,000 diodes, consumed 56kW of power, and covered 490 Sq.
