by Alex Woodie
Here are some sobering statistics: On any given day, nearly one in 10 employees is unexpectedly absent from work, and over a year, this lost productivity costs employers $3,600 per hourly employee. Getting a better handle on the affects of unscheduled absenteeism was one of the hot topics at this year's KronosWorks, the annual user conference that OS/400 labor management software developer Kronos held last month in Las Vegas, a town that's no stranger to lost wages or unscheduled absenteeism.

AVR Provides a Better Alternative Than Screen Scraping, ASNA Says
by Alex Woodie
There are a plethora of options available to OS/400 shops looking to modernize or migrate their monolithic RPG applications using a service oriented architecture. One of the quickest and easiest ways is to implement a screen scraper that outputs the 5250 datastream as a Web service. ASNA says it has a better way with its ASNA Visual RPG (AVR) for .NET offering. Last week the company unveiled AVR for .NET version 7.2, which adds support for more RPG functions, as well as expanded printing capabilities. READ MORE >

CORRECTION
The story "Raz-Lee Developing Native iSeries Antivirus Software" in last week's issue contained an error. It was erroneously stated that malicious code written for Windows cannot hurt OS/400 applications or data. In fact, a worm- or virus-laden Windows PC connected to an iSeries inherits all of the capabilities within the scope and permissions of the infected user, which could enable a virus to erase files on the iSeries and cause critical application services to fail. IT Jungle regrets the error. READ MORE >
