I need help in completing an Assignment for my term.
My topic is –IT Governance Planning.
I have to select a specific governance plan that exits at a company or a plan framework from an Organization. I have to write a two page paper on three or four of the most important suggestions from the plan you select.
I will highly appreciate if you can provide a reference page of the site where you have found the governance plan.
Thank you.
what have you learned about scope creep and how to avoid it? Do you think there are cases where scope creep might actually be a good thing or could be useful? Share your thoughts with your classmates. Even if you have scope creep under control, customers might push the boundaries as the project progresses. How would you deal with a client in a diplomatic way so as to avoid damaging your companys relationship with the client?
What do you think could lead to project failure besides scope creep?
There are no right or wrong answers
Week 3 Discussion
Evaluating Techniques to Ensure Atomicity and Concurrency Control
Your resources for this week introduce the synchronization concepts used to manage atomicity and concurrency, and demonstrate the importance of ensuring actions are atomic and data integrity is maintained during concurrent user access.
For this Discussion, you will more deeply investigate a synchronization technique for ensuring atomicity or managing concurrency, and analyze the efficacy of that technique.
To prepare:
Research techniques for ensuring atomicity or techniques for managing concurrency control. Select one technique that is not detailed in the textbook for your Discussion post.
By Day 3, post a 3- to 4-paragraph evaluation of the technique you selected. Include the following in your post:
A brief summary of the technique.
A description of the concurrency issue that is resolved by the technique, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of the technique.
An explanation of whether the technique is best suited for an all-or-nothing atomicity design strategy or a before-or-after atomicity design strategy.
Week 3 Assignment
Application: Data Integrity and Concurrency Control in Threaded Applications
You have had the opportunity to evaluate the performance of a threaded version of a sort algorithm and a non-threaded version of a sort algorithm.
For this Assignment, you will extend your evaluation by examining the implementation with respect to concurrency control issues.
To prepare:
Evaluate the threaded implementation of the sort algorithm relative to data integrity and concurrency control.
By Day 7, write a 2- to 3-page paper evaluating the implementation of the sort algorithm. Answer the following questions:
Is the threaded implementation correct, or are there data integrity concerns due to concurrency control?
If your implementation is correct, what protections are in place to ensure atomicity and consistency? Could a more effective method of ensuring data integrity be implemented in your solution?
If you ran into trouble with your implementation, provide specifics about the data integrity problems you encountered and explain the modifications that will be necessary to correct the data integrity and concurrency issues.
Include in your analysis an explanation of the operation of the threaded implementation, and if there are data integrity issues, suggest one or more modifications to the implementation to resolve these concerns.
Freedom (justice, rights, equality, autonomy, happiness)
Security (health, safety)
Connection (trust, empathy, family, friends, social relationships)
Progress (belief in being better or the best or an emphasis on continual achievement and exploration)
Opportunity (a chance to become all things listed above!)
For our final project, each member of the class will research a technology they find related to one of the values we named, represented in the list above. What impact is the technology having on this value, or on this aspect of life?
The paper should be organized in the following way:
1. Title page:
a. Center in the middle of the page (horizontally and vertically) the title (subject) of the paper and below that your name.
2. Body of the paper:
a. Use 12-point Arial font
b. Set the margins at 1
c. The entire paper should be double-spaced
d. Length 3-5 full pages, not counting the title page or the References page.
e. Include a minimum of 3 APA-formatted citations and related References page. Every reference must be cited at least once, and every citation has an entry in the References list. If you are not familiar with APA format, it is recommended that you use the References feature in Word for your citations and Reference List or refer to the “Citing and Writing” option under the Resources/Library/Get Help area in the LEO classroom. It is important to review the final format for APA-style correctness even if generated by Word.
f. Include at least two (2) informational footnotes. Footnotes are not used to list a reference! Footnotes contain information about the topic to which the footnote has been attached.
g. Place the references on a separate page following the body of the paper. Note: Use a hard return (CTRL Enter) after the end of your paper body and the start of the References page.
3. Organization of the content of the paper:
Include the following sections in the paper (include, in bold, the headings identified here):
a. Introduction – Identify the issue or idea. Explain why the topic was selected and what you are trying to achieve (what is your end goal). The introduction should not be more than half a page; details will be discussed in the follow-on areas.
b. Areas of interest, activity or issue Define the issue or idea in greater detail. Define the specific problem or problems or new ideas. Identify other underlying or related issues as well as dependencies. Explain what impacts will result if not addressed.
c. Research Findings Summarize your research findings and what they contribute to the study of the issue or idea. You must identify (cite) the sources of the research or class material related to your topic that you include in the findings.
d. Proposed solution(s), idea(s), courses of action(s). List solutions, ideas or courses of action with an analysis of its effectiveness (how will your suggestions affect or change the current situation). If more than one idea is suggested, provide an analysis that covers all proposed suggestions.
e. Conclusion Summarize the conclusions of your paper
My offer
We have to create an article around 3000words including (abstract, introduction, previous work, Ours, results and conclusion)
So based on this article, I have to finish and write abstract, introduction and previous work for taking over next septs for our final part around 1000 words. If you required to use any references for explaining this article, plz use it. Coz it is better than non-articles. But what my main job is basically explaining this article as a pathway of our final project.
I will send you what we do at the moment.
The purpose of this discussion it to help you learn to discern credible and not credible sources of information on the Internet and elsewhere.
Go to a search engine and find one credible and one not credible source on the Internet. You can use Yahoo or Bing. You can also use UMUC library. Once you find both sites then evaluate each per the UMUC criteria, which are at the web sites below. Post your evaluations.
Once you have post you Week 1 Initial Discussion posting then go and investigate the web sites that your classmates have found. What are your thought on their web sites? You need to reply to two of your classmates.
Prior to starting this discussion topic, read the information below.
Locating Reliable Nutrition Information on the Internet *
The purpose of the discussion is not teaching Internet searching skills, but to show the mind-boggling amount of information that is out there, also to see if you can find some reliable sources of nutrition information on the Internet and to help you learn to evaluate the information that is out there. Upon completion of this assignment you will be to evaluate and identify a reliable nutrition web sites on the Internet.
Before you go any further, go the UMUC site on Evaluating Web sites at: http://sites.umuc.edu/library/libhow/websiteevaluation_tutorial.cfm

Read this and print it out to use when you evaluate the web site that you find.
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. We will discuss when we discuss proteins and amino acids. Unless you must follow a very specialized diet you can obtain them from food. You do not need to buy amino acid supplements. In fact it is not recommended to buy and/or consume amino acid supplements.
Now go a search engine Yahoo.com http://yahoo.com “amino acids” or Bing https://www.bing.com/ . What sites do you find? Please list the URL so that your classmate and I can go to the web site. Are any of these web sites not reliable Evaluate it according to the five UMUC evaluate criteria.
To see reliable source of information go to the University of Maryland University Colleges Library Resources page. https://sites.umuc.edu/library/libresources/
Once you get to the Library Resources page click on click on Research Guides ( it is under Articles). This will take you to the Research Guides page.
On the Research Guides page click on Heath and Medicine.
Once you get to the Research Guide for Health and Medicine: Resources page
Under Recommended Databases for Health and Medicine, click on Health Source : Consumer Edition.
Once you get there do a search on amino acids. Do not include the quotation marks.
What site did you find? Please provide the URL so that your classmates and I can go to the site. Evaluate the site according to the UMUC evaluation criteria.
Now compare your two sites according to the UMUC criteria. Please post your evaluation to the conference room
Note: Do not be alarmed at the depth of the articles that you will find at places like PubMed. You may just be starting your University career therefore may not have taken many or any biology and chemistry classes. Having a background will help you to understand these articles.
Note: This topic has its own set of rubrics.
You may also want to check out the following link https://sites.umuc.edu/library/libhow/articles.cfmAt that link you will find a link to “Finding Articles: Finding and Evaluating Scholarly Articles”.
During Week 1, the Nutrition Navigating Discussion will be available. Please post your two evaluation there. You will also need to reply to the initial post of two of your classmates.
You must start a thread before you can read and reply to other threads
During this course you will complete a series of projects that will help you understand the components of a research study. You will do this by writing a proposal that supports the extension of a previously published research project. (You will not actually conduct the research; you will be developing a short proposal that explains the need to extend the research.) Using the ACM database in the Library Portal, find a study related to an area of Information Security that you are interested in to be the basis for your projects for this term. The study can be quantitative or qualitative, but needs to address a problem that you are familiar with. In the conclusions of the study, it should indicate areas for further research. In Part 1 of the project, you will write a short introduction to the research proposal (2-4 pages) which includes the following:
A description of the problem that was addressed in the selected studyA description of the study population and the sampleA summary of the previous findingsA description of an area of research suggested by the author for further research.An explanation of why this extension of research could be important or how it might yield more insight into the problem.
