A leaned-out IT organization capitalizing a significant proportion of its discretionary spend is highly susceptible to a perfect storm of (a) SG&A contraction, (b) IT project write-off, and (c) suspended IT investments. Our Lean IT organization faces a two-phase exposure similar to the credit crisis that struck Wall Street in 2007.

Most of this article represents an overview of the results published by retailers and researchers who built practical decision making and optimization systems combining abstract economic models with data mining methods. Moreover, gross margin is not the only performance metric that is important for retailers. Applications.

The tools use either the referenced or the idle page flags to measure a page-based WSS, and were developed out of necessity for another performance problem. ## Method 1: Referenced Page Flag This uses a kernel feature added in Linux 2.6.22: the ability to set and read the referenced page flag from user space, added for analyzing memory usage.
