BELEVI, K.: Guitar Duos - Cyprian Rhapsodies Nos. 1-4 / Suite Chypre / Turkish Suite (Duo Tandem) (8.574081)

Kemal Belevi’s music is steeped in the colours and atmosphere of the eastern Mediterranean, and his aim is ‘to create beautiful music’ based on melodies and rhythms that have been absorbed from the folk music of Greece, Turkey and the Middle East. Belevi’s own arrangements of works such as the evocative Suite Chypre and the richly varied Cyprian Rhapsodies have significantly extended the repertoire for two guitars. The Duo Tandem are drawn towards this composer’s skilful modernity and his celebration of traditional heritage reimagined within the sound world of the classical guitar.

Resolving symbol information into meaningful function names in tprof

In scenerios where tprof utility fails to resolve the addresses of the symbols, instead reports the symbols in hexadecimal format. This makes perfomance analysis difficult, since the symbols would not have resolved into meaningful function names. This article explains the way in which users can translate the unresolved address in a tprof profile report to meaningful function address using gensyms and dbx commands.

Achieving high performance on IBM AIX using Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI)

This article describes the Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI) Flash support on IBM AIX. CAPI technology has been used on AIX to accelerate I/O operations to IBM Flash storage. AIX CAPI Flash driver stack has been optimized into a monolithic driver model which further reduced the I/O code path length. CAPI Flash technology provides a superior performance advantage in terms of IOPS per processor when compared to the traditional Fibre Channel I/O. We also describe at a high level how a user can use CAPI-based flash devices on AIX.

Overnight Spring Snowstorm Blankets Northern New Jersey

A spring snowstorm overnight on May 8 into May 9 blanketed northern New Jersey with cold and snow, weather reports said. Parts of New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware were also affected by the storm. The National Weather Service’s Mount Holly office recorded temperatures in the low 30s, some going below freezing into the mid-to-high 20s across the northeast. A local resident in Newton, New Jersey, filmed video of the storm blowing snow across their backyard. In the morning, the yard and garden were covered. “Snow on the ground with a pool open seems odd,” J&B Landscape wrote on one video. On another they wrote, “Nice winter morning in May.” Credit: J&B Landscape via Storyful
