Martin Dawes Analytics Announces Lavastorm Desktop Product
Data Analytic Capabilities Enable Capital Constrained Companies to Improve Order-to-Cash and Strengthen Complex Business Processes
BOSTON, March 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Martin Dawes Analytics, a leading global data analytics software provider, today announced the formal launch of their Lavastorm Desktop product, extending the proven capabilities of its server product to enable individual information workers with a powerful, cost efficient tool to optimize revenue and cost performance, and improve transparency of complex businesses. Lavastorm Desktop provides a rich set of packaged data analytics capabilities and can process significant data volumes on a desktop machine. These capabilities are needed by those workers tasked with solving complex analytic challenges that are associated with order-to-cash and other data and logic-intensive processes.
The beta version of the Lavastorm Desktop has been successfully tested and is now being used by communication providers, media and utility companies in North America, EMEA, and Asia/Pacific. Lavastorm Desktop encapsulates all the necessary data acquisition and analytic components in a single desktop, enabling individual information workers to acquire and correlate disparate data from multiple sources; capture and codify complex and conditional business rules that govern vulnerable business processes; and execute a set of library-driven data analytics to de-risk processes and unearth the hidden value of the data. With Lavastorm Desktop, information workers can:
- Model and analyze the conditional logic in order-to-cash, independent of the data source, data architecture, data volumes, and level of business complexity;
- Apply an agile, visual discovery and analytic method to gain transparency to the data and logic at the atomic level, and to build and execute logical, traceable analytic steps;
- Extend the analytic reach across the entire order-to-cash process with a single tool.
"The Lavastorm Desktop changes today's data analytic paradigm, disrupting the notion that you have to spend heavily on hardware, software and people in order to undercover and resolve the data issues that are costing global businesses billions of dollars," said Drew Rockwell, CEO of Martin Dawes Analytics. "Complex ad-hoc analytic projects can now be executed in days, dramatically shortening time-to-value and providing facts and funds to help business and IT executives identify those processes that need automated, persistent controls. In this economic climate, we believe the marketplace is looking for suppliers to disrupt the traditional price performance curve -- and we believe the Lavastorm desktop is the first data analytic tool to deliver on that goal."
Leveraging the Lavastorm Desktop, customers and partners can apply the tool across the entire order-to-cash process; from focused revenue assurance analytics, to complaint analytics that reduce operational cost while enhancing customer experience and creating rapid value. The software is comprised of five core capabilities: ETL functionality to acquire virtually any data at volumes only limited by the desktop processor; library analytic assets that users can assemble to solve complex problems; core data analytics to create a rich analytic foundation from multiple data sources; advanced analytics to uncover, explain; and resolve errors or uncover hidden value; and visualization to provide a logical, intuitive canvas for technical and business users alike.
About Martin Dawes Analytics
Martin Dawes Analytics is a leading global data analytic software company focused on maximizing cash from and improving the performance of complex processes, such as order-to-cash. The Lavastorm Analytic Platform provides data and logic transparency at the atomic level, scales to any level of complexity, is extensible across order-to-cash, and delivers both ad hoc analytics and automated controls within one analytic environment. This capability delivers powerful solutions, such as revenue assurance, fraud management, cost validation, customer management, risk management, and core data analytics.

AutoVirt Launches AutoMap - Site Survey Tool
New Software Helps Customers Control IT Budget by Identifying Over and Under Utilized Windows File Server and Network-Attached Storage (NAS) Assets
AutoVirt Solutions Help IT Management Meet 'Green' Objectives
Nashua, N.H., March 2 /PRNewswire/ -- AutoVirt, Inc., the leading provider of Windows data migration solutions, today announced the release of its AutoMap(TM) site survey tool. The new software is intended to help customers discover under and over utilized Windows file server and network attached storage (NAS) resources, in physical, virtualized and mixed environments. Once identified, customers are able to fine-tune these assets and defer additional server and NAS purchases.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20081014/NETU030LOGO )
"The digital universe is exploding. In fact, it is expected to grow to well over 1,000 exabytes(1) within the next three-to-four years," said James Baker, research manager, storage software, IDC. "With the majority of this growth coming from unstructured file data, it should come as no surprise that we are seeing an epidemic of over-provisioning of resources as IT management executives struggle to maintain control -- resulting in huge capital and operational expenses to the organization. AutoVirt's AutoMap will help IT Managers alleviate this pain by identifying challenged resources, thus allowing them to reallocate their data across all available storage assets."
"Due to the relentless growth of unstructured file data it has become increasingly difficult, if not impossible, to effectively manage Windows file server and NAS resources. Many IT organizations have had little choice but to consistently over-provision in an attempt to keep their head above water. Consequently, today's IT organizations are experiencing server and storage utilization rates as low as just 20% and 30%, respectively," said Klavs Landberg, founder and CTO, AutoVirt. "AutoVirt AutoMap provides an ideal step in the right direction. Within minutes of deployment, a report will be generated detailing all hardware/software assets and associated utilization statistics, as well as a comprehensive networked shares map. With this information in hand, customers can fine tune assets, increase utilization and fully maximize infrastructure value."
Landberg added, "Accordingly, another key benefit of AutoVirt technology is its ability to help IT management meet their 'green' objectives, because by minimizing the purchase of additional hardware, energy consumption is likewise minimized."
The AutoMap site survey tool is available immediately; and for a limited time, a no-obligation free trial is obtainable at: http://www.autovirt.com/product/AutoMap.cfm. Key AutoMap functionality is also included standard, with all AutoVirt AutoMove(TM) automated data migration software purchases.
For additional information on AutoVirt AutoMove, please read the following IDC research report: "AutoVirt: A New Venture Bringing Windows-Based Data Migration to Market" (http://www.autovirt.com/resources/idc-report.cfm).
About AutoVirt
AutoVirt(TM), Inc. is the leading provider of fully-automated Windows data migration solutions. By leveraging advanced file storage virtualization technology, AutoVirt AutoMove(TM) software offers customers a continuous data migration (CDM) solution that is easy to acquire, deploy and manage - with no incremental work, downtime, configurations changes, or client software agents required - all at a highly affordable price. Moreover, AutoVirt software provides an out-of-band solution that eliminates the associated cost and added latency of an in-band approach. With AutoVirt, customers can finally transition from viewing data migration as a point-in-time event, to an automatic and continual load balancing capability.

ProCon.org and Over 175 Experts Compare Alternative Energies to Fossil Fuels in Major New Nonpartisan Website
SANTA MONICA, Calif., March 2 /PRNewswire/ -- ProCon.org, a nonpartisan 501c3 nonprofit research organization, created the new website alternativeenergyprocon.org to explore the core question, "Can alternative energy effectively replace fossil fuels?"
President Obama's budget has invested billions of dollars in alternative energy development, and ProCon.org investigates this topic and related issues including:
* whether alternative energy will revitalize the economy, increase energy independence, or should be subsidized, and
* pros and cons of peak oil theory, ethanol, biofuels, wind energy, solar energy, hydrogen vs. electricity, nuclear power, causes of global climate change, and more
Pro and con statements on over 30 energy-related questions were researched and solicited from more than 175 experts including: Samuel Bodman, former US Secretary of Energy; Helen Caldicott, President of the Nuclear Policy Research Institute; Al Gore, former Vice-President of the United States; representatives of Greenpeace, Heartland Institute, Institute for Energy Research, Cato Institute, World Wildlife Fund, the US Conference of Mayors, and dozens more.
The research has been made publicly available at no charge and with no advertising.
Some interesting facts presented on the new website include:
* The US has 1.6% of the world's oil supply, and it uses 24% of the world's oil production.
* The US used fossil fuels (oil, coal, and natural gas) for 85% of its energy needs from 2003-2007. Of the remainder, 7% came from alternative energies (wind, solar, hydroelectric, geothermal, and biomass), and 8% came from nuclear power.
* Illinois produces the most nuclear energy of any state with 982.4 trillion Btu's (about 25% of its total energy). 19 states and the District of Columbia do not produce any nuclear power.
* The resource-rich states of West Virginia, Wyoming, and North Dakota export a greater percentage of their energy than any other state with 69%, 65%, and 53%, respectively, of their energy going outside their borders.
About Us
ProCon.org has used its nonpartisan pro-con approach on many issues including the Big Three bailout, the 2008 presidential election, medical marijuana, the Iraq war, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, illegal immigration, and several others.

Frost & Sullivan: Mounting Waste and Crashing Prices of Recyclables in the EU
LONDON, March 2 /PRNewswire/ -- The current economic crisis has hit the EU Waste Management Market hard and the recycling sector has borne the brunt of the blow. Falling prices of recyclables has lead to vast volumes of unattended waste piling up in landfills and warehouses.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20081117/FSLOGO)
The extent to which each member state's waste management market has been affected by the economic downturn varies. Germany, France and the UK were impacted first and more significantly than their Southern European counterparts. Key players in the market such as Veolia Environmental Services have described the situation as increasingly grim with a decline in waste volumes collected and treated since the last quarter of 2008 and a significant drop in the recycling business.
Although the economic crisis affects the entire waste management market, the recycling sector suffered the most. This is a direct result of the sharp fall in prices of recyclables such as steel and paper, resulting in large volumes of waste remaining unattended. This has been an expensive proposition for waste management companies and there is widespread concern in the market that this will result in the price of recycling spiralling upwards, thus making it an economically unattractive proposition. Such a scenario is already present in the UK with the prices of collecting paper rising by 20 pounds Sterling more per ton.
While the economic crisis faces an uncertain future, experts warn that volumes of waste awaiting recycling in warehouses is expected to rise at least until the end of the first quarter of 2009. In addition, the crisis has assumed global proportions and linkages more than even before. For example, waste management firms were typically expected to sell waste paper and cardboard to paper mills that reuse these recyclables to make paper, envelopes and newsprint, but this market has declined significantly due to a sharp fall in demand from key export markets such as China.
Despite this difficult situation, new opportunities are arising for waste management companies and suppliers. "Governments across Europe have already responded to this slowdown by increasing spending to infuse money into the economy and as a result, there are a growing number of infrastructure projects in countries like the UK which are hard hit by the financial crisis," says Suchitra Padmanabhan, Programme Manager, Waste Management, Frost & Sullivan. "In an effort to manage the current situations, utilities and waste management companies are encouraged to undertake projects which will create opportunities in key segments such as waste minimization and sorting and separation."
Moreover, Europe is continuing to lead the way with respect to proactive legislation such as the Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment (WEEE) Directive as well as in its effective implementation. Coming in to 2009 the focus of the European Waste Management Industry is on growth opportunities in key markets such as Russia and the CEE, as well as key segments such as the medical waste management industry and waste to energy markets, all of which offer promising potential.
For more information about the Waste Management Market in Europe and our extensive research in the Green Energy Market in Europe and globally, please contact Chiara Carella, Corporate Communications Europe, at chiara.carella@frost.com. A complimentary brochure will be emailed to you.
