...Personalized Optimization for Android Smartphones WOOK SONG, YESEONG KIM, HAKBONG KIM, JEHUN LIM, and JIHONG KIM, Seoul National University As a highly personalized computing device, smartphones present a unique new opportunity for system optimization. For example, it is widely observed that a smartphone user exhibits very regular application usage patterns (although different users are quite different in their usage patterns). User-specific high-level app usage information, when properly managed, can provide valuable hints for optimizing various system design requirements. In this article, we describe the design and implementation of a personalized optimization framework for the Android platform that takes advantage of user’s application usage patterns in optimizing the performance of the Android platform. Our optimization framework consists of two main components, the application usage modeling module and the usage model-based optimization module. We have developed two novel application usage models that correctly capture typical smartphone user’s application usage patterns. Based on the application usage models, we have implemented an app-launching experience optimization technique which tries to minimize user-perceived delays, extra energy consumption, and state loss when a user launches apps. Our experimental results on the Nexus S Android reference phones show that our proposed optimization technique can avoid unnecessary application restarts by up to 78.4% over the default...

...PREFACE Projects are an indispensable part of any kind of formal education. They help us to have a practical exposure as well as better outlook of the subject, which we are studying. In a professional course like PGDBM, the students are equipped with strong theoretical knowledge about the business operations and the time-tested methods of running a successful business. To make this theoretical knowledge stronger, the students are assigned certain projects in various organizations to get an idea of the practical working styles. I was assigned to work in Eveready Industries India Limited, Guwahati. The topic of study was “A study of market policies and Distribution Channels of Mosquito coil in Nalbari District ”. I worked with the Ashish Agency, Distributor (Van Operator) of Eveready situated in Nalbari Town. The Project commenced from the 1st May of 2006 to 30th June 2006. In order to make the data and findings easily understandable, efforts have been made to present the information in a simplified, lucid and organized manner. Wherever possible, tables and figures have been incorporated. Suggestions have been made on the basis of findings herein. It gives me immense practical exposure to the practical working patterns and the environment. I will be satisfied if the organization gets benefit from the study and the findings. 4. LIMITATION: 1.

...COMPUTER EDUCATION YEAR 11 2014 Technology and Employment Skills Training Ministry of Education, Fiji. 28th November 2013 Year 11 Computer Education 1 Preface This text book has been written to cater for the new Year 11 Computer Education syllabus trialed in Fiji secondary school for the year 2014. It is a new text book and the first of its kind to be written locally. It is hoped that this book will be useful in implementing the syllabus but it should be understood that it is not the syllabus. The syllabus is the framework for the teacher to follow while this text book is a resource for the student. Therefore departure to other resource materials for more information will be acceptable. The text book is not the perfect piece of work as it has been prepared in a very short time, therefore suggestions for amendments will be welcomed. It is anticipated that this book will minimize the amount of time for teachers in lesson preparation and more time will be devoted to actual classroom teaching and learning. There may be a variety of opinion about the content of the topics, but for the beginner it is the best which gives the time and opportunity to become familiar with the basics before pursuing further into the field of study in greater detail at the upper secondary level Ministry of Education, Suva.

Recognize that information security breaches are on the rise. 2. Understand the potentially damaging impact of security breaches. 3. Recognize that information security must be made a top organizational priority. Sitting in the parking lot of a Minneapolis Marshalls, a hacker armed with a laptop and a telescope‐shaped antenna infiltrated the store’s network via an insecure Wi‐Fi base station. The attack launched what would become a billion‐dollar plus nightmare scenario for TJX, the parent of retail chains that include Marshalls, Home Goods, and T.J. Maxx. Over a period of several months, the hacker and his gang stole at least 45.7 million credit and debit card numbers, and pilfered driver’s license and other private information from an additional ...

...Q1. Based on research of the company, identify the range of decisions made by the company. Evaluate the effectiveness of the decisions (Criteria 1.1, Grading Criteria M1). Strategic Planning Decisions: Strategic planning decisions are those decisions in which the decision-maker develops objectives and allocates resources to achieve these objectives. Such decisions are taken by strategic planning level (top level) managers. Example: pizza hut might have the objective of increasing sales and decide to implement a strategy of offering lower prices on certain products during off hours to attract more customers. After a month of pursuing the new strategy, managers can look at sales data for the month and evaluate whether the strategy resulted in increasing sales and then choose to keep the new price scheme or alter their strategy. Management Control Decisions: Management control decisions are taken by management control level (middle level) managers and deal with the use of resources in the organization. Example : The system installed at each Pizza Hut delivery outlet, restaurant and area managers office includes password‐controlled access to an enterprise information portal, mymicros.net. This content‐rich and secure Internet portal enables area and store managers and staff costs, with real‐timer reports obtained via a Web browser at any time. This enables ,managers to react immediately to any emerging issues and run their...
