Well, I just got out of a meeting to discuss the reorganization. And... basically upper management has barely made a dent their decisions, and we won't know for "a while". However, my boss' boss (who led the meeting for our team of 30) said that she's hopeful and reassured that we should be okay throughout this whole process because not a lot of people can do the job we do. So that made me feel better. But, it was a bit of a let down to not have a decision made either way. I've been a big stress ball this whole week, and then nothing was resolved. So I guess I'll just hang in there and do my job the best that I can, which is all I can do at this point. I just want to thank all of you for your sweet calls, texts, comments, thoughts and prayers for me this week. It's hard when you're fairly new to the corporate world and you don't know what to expect in a situation like this... But I have been carried by your prayers this week, and I appreciate all of you. [update: Steve (my boss) just bought us all ice cream... morale boost = 2 points.]
My sweet husband is taking me out on date tonight, which is something we haven't done in a while! We're going to go out to eat and then seeing "Nights in Rodanthe". I read the book and I've been wanting to see this for months!
Have a fabulous weekend, friends.
MATLAB available (with purchase)
On Wednesday of this week, Agilent Technologies and The MathWorks announced the availability of MATLAB with the purchase of Agilent's EXA, MXA, or PSA signal analyzers.
Hmmmmm.... what does this mean? Are they giving away a seat of MATLAB with the purchase of one of these high-performance analyzers? Well, no. One has to read this press release very closely to figure out what is being offered.
Agilent and The MathWorks are making MATLAB available as a purchase option when buying one of these signal analyzers. I don't know how difficult it was to purchase MATLAB in the past, but I suppose this has the benefit of reducing the number of purchase requests you need to submit to your evil purchasing department. In that sense it is good news.
It's also good news to see two big companies we rely on for our product development collaborating at any level. So while our wishful thinking was for a free copy of MATLAB, we will still be grateful that Agilent and The MathWorks see the benefits of working together for the sake of their customers.
Citing that ,"The combination of Agilent signal analyzers and MATLAB data analysis software enables engineers to confidently analyze, visualize, demodulate, and filter signals that would otherwise be very difficult or impossible to do. ", the two companies felt the agreement would provide high-quality instrumentation and data analysis software from a single source.
Here are the details:
* The MATLAB Basic Signal Analysis Package provides an introductory software package for configuring and controlling Agilent instruments and performing basic signal and visualization tasks from the MATLAB environment.
* The MATLAB Standard Signal Analysis Package adds functionality for filtering signals and analyzing modulation schemes.
* The MATLAB Advanced Signal Analysis Package adds functionality for advanced filter design methods and radio frequency (RF) component analysis.
