Week 7 research project: portfolio project

This week’s written activity is a three-part activity. You will respond to three separate prompts but prepare your paper as one research paper. Be sure to include at least one scholarly reference per prompt, in addition to your textbook (which means you’ll have at least 4 sources cited). Start your paper with an introductory paragraph.Prompt 1 “Data Warehouse Architecture” (2-3 pages): Explain the major components of a data warehouse architecture, including the various forms of data transformations needed to prepare data for a data warehouse. Also, describe in your own words current key trends in data warehousing. Prompt 2 “Big Data” (2-3 pages): Describe your understanding of big data and give an example of how you’ve seen big data used either personally or professionally. In your view, what demands is big data placing on organizations and data management technology? Prompt 3 “Green Computing” (2-3 pages):  One of our topics in Chapter 13 surrounds IT Green Computing. The need for green computing is becoming more obvious considering the amount of power needed to drive our computers, servers, routers, switches, and data centers. Discuss ways in which organizations can make their data centers “green”. In your discussion, find an example of an organization that has already implemented IT green computing strategies successfully. Discuss that organization and share your link. You can find examples in the UC Library.Conclude your paper with a detailed conclusion section. The paper needs to be approximately 7-10 pages long, including both a title page and a references page (for a total of 9-12 pages). Be sure to use proper APA formatting and citations to avoid plagiarism.Your paper should meet the following requirements:• Be approximately seven to ten pages in length, not including the abstract, required cover page or reference page.• Follow APA guidelines.

Bus 680 week 6 final paper

Focus of the Final PaperEach person must complete a research paper addressing one of the following topics or a mutually agreed upon topic between the student and instructor:§ Training Needs Analysis§ Training Strategies for Small and Medium Sized Businesses: One Size Doesn’t Fit All§ Management Development Techniques§ Training Evaluation: New Techniques and Strategies§ The Learning Organization: Three Companies That Have Made it a Reality§ Technical Training: A “How To” Guide to Enhancing Technical KSA’s§ Other topic approved by instructorThese papers are to reflect the current “state of the art” in the area and should reflect both academic and professional (practical) orientations. The paper should review the available research, discuss the implications of that research for the topic area, and provide conclusions. The paper should be organized into the following areas:
1. Introduction: The area of research should be described and the purpose of the research. That is, describe the topic area in terms of (1) its relationship to training and (2) what you want to be able to contribute to the training literature by writing this paper.
2. Review of the literature: Organize the literature into logical streams of thought related to your topic area. Within each of these areas summarize what the literature has to say. Be sure to indicate in your discussion whether the information is based on empirical data or just the opinion of the author.
3. Implications of the literature: Again, organize the implications of the literature in a manner that logically builds the case for your conclusions (which you will present in the next section). For each of your implications be sure to reference the literature related to that implication. Be sure to indicate whether the implication is one that has already been made in the literature or if this is one that is original to you. You should identify in this section important areas related to your topic that are missing from the literature.
4. Conclusions: This is where you tie all the pieces together. Make sure your conclusions are organized in a logical order that states what you have concluded relative to the purpose of your paper. Be sure that these conclusions are justified. For example, conclusions based upon empirical fact have more weight than those based upon opinion. Opinions shared by many in the literature have more weight than those of only one author.

JNU IT Cybersecurity Principles Cyberlaw Discussion

DiscussionOn the discussion forum, describe what every person should be able to expect when looking for government statutes, regulations and court cases on the internet from any region of the world. Why is it important to have a uniform method of citing government statutes, regulations and court cases related to cyberlaw issues?  Should not every country be allowed to develop its own method of legal citation?  Minimum 250 words. Reply 1:- Having lot of changes expected with internet can text but have a water management of multiple things which has been associated with existing architecture would be design only when multiple principles have been used in order to control the completely centralization process. Customer care that hand is also quite interested that the designing aspect for future would be associated and responsibility to make sure that the criminals which have been enabled into the communication process would help in disturbing the illegal management of material based on exchange in the copyrights (Ranbir, 2015).It will help in bringing a better anonymity with respect to the person that has its own Association duty waste management along with the service would be managing the traffic flow along with the aspect of computer that has been used.  be completely authenticated that there will be multiple forces which have been used to bring up a change in the overall process but the management which has also been giving the future tour ideas will help in leading 30 tuition. However commerce and industry along with specific space would be associated with as an ideal mechanism to the business to make sure that online commerce would be becoming a completely important aspect the increase in the pressure has been up indicated. This would help the vendors to bring up lot of things based on identification to make sure the signatures which have been already validated will help in reduction of contracts along with the legal authorities.Reply 2:-Having lot of advantages and internet due to this there are the multiple methods which has been associated with the communication process would be maintained by the commerce Insurance of anything is specialised access in much wider things. Properties which has been associated into this Patel distance along with National porter’s is also completely relevant when the creation of the internet business transactions has been conferred with the expression matter of purpose along with the same square horror scenes. A court  would generally does not have any power with respect to the internet Association in United States along with the management of deciding the case with respect to the determination of the percentage restriction that has been associated over multiple parties. The maintenance of State Power would be completely systematic along with the continuity due to which the contact which has been associated with the restriction would be associated by management of contacts with respect to the activities that has been taken place along the expression matters. The common allegations should be generally described with an American institute that has been associated with law restatement by which the construction of loss will be providing a better jurisdiction to the individual who has been causing the overall effect. It also help in providing a better parameter with respect to the constitutional power by which the citizens which has been associated to get the maximum extent would be allowed by bringing up the federal constitution.

Critical Thinking: Corporate Strategy and Diversification (105 points)
Corporate diversification strategies raise a wide range of strategic management issues.
For this week’s critical thinking assignment, read the case study found in your textbook
(Case 19): Google Is Now Alphabet—But What’s the Corporate Strategy?
Remember, a case study is a puzzle to be solved, so before reading and answering the
specific case and study questions, develop your proposed solution by following these
five steps:
1. Read the case study to identify the key issues and underlying issues. These issues are the
principles and concepts of the course area which apply to the situation described in the case
study.
2. Record the facts from the case study which are relevant to the principles and concepts of the
course area issues. The case may have extraneous information not relevant to the current course
area. Your ability to differentiate between relevant and irrelevant information is an important
aspect of case analysis, as it will inform the focus of your answers.
3. Describe in some detail the actions that would address or correct the situation.
4. Consider how you would support your solution with examples from experience or current real-life
examples or cases from textbooks.
5. Complete this initial analysis and then read the discussion questions. Typically, you will already
have the answers to the questions but with a broader consideration. At this point, you can add the
details and/or analytical tools required to solve the case.
Case Study Questions:
1. What is Google’s corporate strategy? Does Google have a clear vision of what it wants to
become?
2. Use Porter’s Essentials Test (Chapter 12) to determine if this strategy creates competitive
advantage. If so, how? If not, why not?
3. Look beyond the conventional sources of synergy and consider complementarities, bargaining
power, and rivals. What threats does Google face?
4. Does Google need to refocus? How should Google delineate its corporate boundaries and which
businesses, or products would you recommend abandoning or divesting, if any?

Using g*power software (calculating power) biostats

  
USING G*POWER SOFTWARE (Calculating Power) BIOSTATS
DUE 3/10/19  10 P.M EST
BE ON TIME AND ORIGINAL WORK
Have SPSS SOFTWARE AND G POWER
DONT ASK IF YOU DON’T HAVE IT
READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
DATA ATTACHED AND HELPFUL STEP BY STEP GUIDE!!
G POWER ATTACHED AS WELL
In research, calculating power is essential. The larger a sample size, the more powerful a study may be. It can be helpful to calculate the minimum sample size needed for basic statistics—such as the t-test—without the aid of software. Sample size calculation is based on the statistical testing method used. Remember, sample size denotes the number of variables examined in data collection.
You use the software G*Power located to do your calculations. Calculating power based on sample size, rather than calculating sample size based on power, is useful when using secondary data where the sample size is already fixed.
For this Assignment, you practice manually calculating basic sample size. You also practice calculating power with the assistance of G*Power software located in the Learning Resources.
The Assignment
Using the  Dataset (SPSS document) ATTACHED
1. Calculate the minimum sample size you will need (using manual calculations) to conduct a t test to determine if the difference in age in people with and without hypertension is significant. Use the standard deviation for age calculated in week 1. Assume a 2-tailed test with alpha = .05 and Power = 80% and that the difference you expect to observe between the 2 groups is 5 years. 
2. Using two different effect sizes in addition to the one used in part 1, perform three power analyses of the sample size computed in step 1 using G*Power. (Assume a 2-tailed independent sample t test with alpha set at .05) 
3. Perform a power analysis using G*Power using the actual sample size presented in the dataset for week 1 (180) and an effect size of .30. What does this mean in terms of the study and the probability of experiencing a type 2 error?

Interview psych | Psychology homework help

 
Identify two people or a caregiver (as in the case of an infant), who represent two different stages of the life span—ideally, two who do not identify with your own current stage of life span development—and set up an brief 15–20  minute interview with them for this assignment. For example, select an  adolescent and a senior in late adulthood, or the parent of a newborn  and a child in late childhood. 
Conversationally interview these two people in order to compare what  you have learned here in class, through the textbook, lectures, and  videos, with their perception of what it is actually like to be in their  stage of life.
Interviews may be done via phone, Skype, email, etc. Take notes or record (with permission) your interview.  
Below  are some suggestions for your conversation. You do not need to cover  all of these topics in your paper, but they will help you shape your  discussion. Be sure to note which topics you discuss.
PSYC 290 Interview Questions – Interview question file is attached 
In your write up, tell us the gender, age, identified life stage of  development, and cultural identification(s) of the individuals you  interviewed. Be sure to maintain each individual’s privacy and  confidentiality when asked to do so. Summarize the topics you discussed  and share your interviewees’ responses (you may paraphrase and quote).
In your paper, after you have shared what the interviewees  discussed, share your thoughts on the process of talking with someone  about their place in the life span. Did you learn anything from your  conversations that you did not learn in the academic materials? How  accurate do you think psychologists have been in identifying and  classifying the different life stages? Explain.

Your paper should be 2–4 pages long not including the title and reference pages.
Be sure to include a brief introduction and a conclusion to your paper.
Use current APA Style throughout, include a title page, cite your  interviews parenthetically within the paper, and include a reference  page for any other resources you use, such as your text or course  materials.
