1. On a clear day, a group of your friends in the Astronomy club gets together to plan out
the astronomical events theyre going to try observing that night. Well make the
following assumptions about the events.
– There are n events, which for simplicity well assume occur in sequence separated by
exactly one minute each. Thus event j occurs at minute j; if they dont observe this
event at exactly minute j, then they miss out on it.
– The sky is mapped according to a one-dimensional coordinate system (measured in
degrees from some central baseline); event j will be taking place at coordinate dj , for
some integer value dj. The telescope starts at coordinate 0 at minute 0.
– The last event, n, is much more important than the others; so it is required that they
observe event n.
The Astronomy club operates a large telescope that can be used for viewing these events.
Because it is such a complex instrument, it can only move at a rate of one degree per
minute. Thus they do not expect to be able to observe all n events; they just want to
observe as many as possible, limited by the operation of the telescope and the
requirement that event n must be observed. We say that a subset S of the events is
viewable if it is possible to observe each event j S at its appointed time j, and the
telescope has adequate time (moving at its maximum of one degree per minute) to move
between consecutive events in S.
The problem: Given the coordinates of each of the n events, find a viewable subset of
maximum size, subject to the requirement that it should contain event n. Such a solution
will be called optimal.
Example. Suppose the one-dimensional coordinates of the events are as shown here.
Event 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Coordinate 1 -4 -1 4 5 -4 6 7 -2
Then the optimal solution is to observe events 1, 3, 6, 9. Note that the telescope has time
to move from one event in this set to the next, even moving at one degree per minute.
Give a dynamic programming algorithm that takes values for the coordinates d1, d2,, dn of the events and returns the size of an optimal solution. Note that you need to:
(1) write the iterative version of the algorithm to find the maximal size.
(2) show the algorithm for tracing the events selected.
(3) give a brief argument of correctness, and
(4) analyze the running time.
2. A complex linear structure is to be assembled out of n smaller pieces. We will think of
each piece as an interval [a; b]. The joining operation takes [a; b] and [b; c] and produces
[a; c]. After joining, each subpart must be tested. Assume that the cost to test [u; v] is
given by f(u; v) > 0.
Different assembly orders potentially have different total testing cost. For example,
suppose that we have three pieces corresponding to intervals [1; 2]; [2; 3]; and [3; 4], and
the cost of testing is given by: f(1; 3) = 3, f(2; 4) = 1, and f(1; 4) = 5. Then assembling the first and second pieces first and then joining them with the third has a total testing cost of f(1; 3) + f(1; 4) = 8, whereas assembling the second and third pieces first and then joining them with the first has a total testing cost of f(2; 4) + f(1; 4) = 6. Therefore, the second assembly order is preferable.
Design an O(n3) algorithm using dynamic programming methodology to find an optimal
(least total testing cost) assembly order. Note that you should:
(1) use iterative implementation for the algorithm to find the optimal cost, and
(2) Show the algorithm for finding the optimal order.
(3) give a brief argument of correctness, and
(4) analyze the running time.
Prompt:
Please define feminist theory in your own words. Do you believe there are intrinsic gender differences, or do you believe that gender differences are socialized? Does a person have to identify as female to practice feminist therapy or to be the client of a feminist-oriented therapist? Please explain the rationale for your response. Do you feel that one can be a Christian feminist, and if so, how would you describe a Christian feminist?

Case Study Analysis
Your assignment for the first case study is to carefully read the article titled “The Case for Reparations”Preview the document. This article takes a very poignant view of the history of segregation in America, and suggests policy changes to address harm done to certain populations during America’s history. It is in no way intended to convince you that the author is right or wrong. Instead, the purpose of the assignment is to demonstrate that public administration can impact the lives of people in both positive and negative ways.
You assignment is to use the article, the Case for Reparations, as well as your text book, and complete each of the sections below. The report must follow APA formatting and be at least 2 pages, double spaced, not including your Title and Reference page.
Introduction
Provide an overview of the situation
Identify key issues underlying the problems identified in the article that you read
Main body
Present and analyze the issues found in the article.
Consider and assess possible solutions to the issues presented in the article.
Include in your analysis material covered in the text book and material discussed by your fellow students on the discussion board.
Discuss which of the stories presented in the article you think best supports or detracts from the authors desire for reparations
Select and discuss a solution that you think has the best chance of improving the issues discussed in the article. Draw from both your article and your personal experience
Conclusion
Summarize main findings.
Identify and justify strategy proposed
References
A list of sources consulted or referred to in alphabetical order

Prepare a 3 page paper on the implications for voting, lotteries, certificate issuance, security auditing and enterprise. Discuss the impact on blockchain finance and how these functions will accelerate basic functions.
Your paper should be a minimum of 3 pages long (excluding the title and reference pages) and formatted according to APA.
I need a paper of 10 pages for my Nudging Class. The title should be ” How to Nudge investors to make better choices”.
The paper should be : While flexible if you prefer a different structure, I strongly recommend you keep in mind the BASIC framework from OECD that we have discussed in class. Accordingly, your paper could have a structure similar to the following:
I. Behavioral problem (identify a behavioral problem, and explain its importance; eg: there are not enough organ donors, this is relevant because)
II. Behavioral analysis (analyze the problem from the behavioral point of view: is it a problem of attention? Belief formation? Choice? Determination? What are the biases or behavioral regularities involved in the undesirable behavior? Eg: for organ donation there could be several explanantion, a possible one: determination as in I want to be an organ donor, but I dont wanna think about it now)
III. Behavioral solution (identify the kind of intervention that in your opinion would be useful to correct the undesirable behavior; eg. For organ donation, use the Default effect)
IV. Behavioral intervention (this comprises an experimental step, in which you test your hypothesized solution, and a deployed solution; eg, for organ donation, change the forms when renewing driving license of course you are not required to carry out neither of these steps, but you would need to think about possible experimental design.)
Think of your organization through the lens of Complexity. Describe two issues that are constrained by the complexity within your organization.
For example: You are a part of a family owned business where an inexperienced family member has been given a position of authority. While you are aware of the mistakes this family member is making that are having an adverse impact on the culture, you opt to not bring the issue to the attention of the Senior Leadership because you fear you will be viewed as a whistle-blower.
1. Describe two issues you are observing in your organization. Describe as if you are a consultant/advisor; write your paper as if the CEO will read your work.
1. In a short introduction, describe the overall problem, and two specific issues that need to be addressed.
2. In the body, complete an analysis of each issue; what is the issue and why is it important (if unresolved how might it harm the company)?
3. In the conclusion, provide at least one recommendation that will address each issue, and explain how this will resolve the problem.
2. Integrate with related readings and coursework; supporting examples are good ways to reinforce your recommendations.
each point made should either build on or logically transition to the next point. You may choose to include or not include a counterargument in your essayit is up to you. With the exception of the concluding paragraph, points made should not be repeated or restated. Remember that your paper must include research from at least 3 sources, and one must be an academic journal! For this essay, Id like you to practice writing an essay that is highly formal in nature. As such, please avoid using I pronouns. Work to make sure your arguments and the facts supporting them take center stage, not your own personal opinions! The essay’s main points are allowing low-income students receive an education, get rid of student debt allowing economical stimulus and allows students follow their true passion. I’ve attached some sources that can be used. If theres a source you use that’s not I didn’t send just add it to the work cited
My group has created a product called LowesLeader which is a application based service from Lowes Home Improvement that enables people to video chat live with specialists that guide them through DIY projects and home repairs as well as picking out the correct product/parts they will need, I need a paper detailing the points of difference this product has versus others already on the market number 5.2 and number 2 in the files attached
