Operational BI versus the present-day woes of the Big Banks?

This blog entry - Mortage Mess: Where Was the Business Intelligence? by Joe McKendrick - made an interesting read. Joe implies that all the BI reports in the world are useless if no-one reads them or takes action on them. Thence the need for BI systems that respond to events and event trends and take action on those trends - akin to what has been termed “Operational BI”, and solved neatly in the real world by CEP, as well as being closely related to BAM. Clearly, deciding on the rules - what trends to look for and what action to take in advance - is a difficult thing to do. But then, these decision-making skills are why executives in large corporations get paid lots of $ by their shareholders. Presumably.

NAME
sbig5 - A character encoding system (codeset) for Traditional Chinese DESCRIPTION
The Shift Big-5 (sbig5) codeset is a variant of the Big-5 codeset (see big5(5)). The only difference between these codesets is that the second byte of some Big-5 characters are mapped to different values in the Shift Big-5 codeset. The remapping is done to avoid having some metacharacters like *, which has special meaning to UNIX commands, in the second byte of a 2-byte Big-5 character. The mappings of Big-5 characters to Shift Big-5 characters are as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Big-5 (2nd Character Symbol Shift Big-5 (2nd Character Symbol byte) byte) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 40 @ 30 0 5B [ 31 1 5C 32 2 5D ] 33 3 5E ^ 34 4 5F - 35 5 60 ` 36 6 7B { 37 7 7C | 38 8 7D } 39 9 7E ~ 9F nil ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The sbig5 codeset is not supported by a locale but only through codeset conversion. Codeset Conversion The following codeset converter pairs are available for converting Traditional Chinese characters between sbig5 and other encoding formats. Refer to iconv_intro(5) for an introduction to codeset conversion. For more information about the other codeset for which sbig5 is the input or output, see the reference page specified in the list item. big5_sbig5, sbig5_big5 Converting from and to the Big-5 codeset: big5(5). Note that Big-5 encoding is equivalent to the Microsoft code-page format used on PCs for Traditional Chinese. Therefore, you can use these converters to convert Traditional Chinese between PC code-page format and Shift Big-5 encoding. eucTW_sbig5, sbig5_eucTW Converting from and to Taiwanese Extended UNIX Code: eucTW(5).
