...Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary Analysis Paper 1 Submitted to Dr. Rod Dempsey In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Course Small Group Ministries DSMN 630-D01 By Erica Shelton March 30, 2014 Small groups are the proper environment to develop and grow disciples of Jesus. The purpose of a small group is to develop sacrificial, relational, transformed people who can continue the cycle of disciple development. Small groups must be intentional, individual and missional. There are five primary passages that can be used to form a small group ministry philosophy. Each of these passages have accompanying principles that we can apply to our small group ministries. Primary passages that form a small group ministry and the principles that are derived 1. The Great Commandment In Matthew 22:36-40, Jesus was challenged by one of the Pharisees: “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” We show our love for God through worship, giving, putting him first. We show our love for others by caring and giving to the ‘neighbors’ in our spheres of influence. A small group is the best place to pull people into a circle where they can love God and others together...

...Analysis Paper 1 Jennifer Lincoln COUN 620 Liberty University March 29, 2015 In regards to key developmental aspects of human growth in my life and as I integrate Erickson’s eight stages of development into my 48 years of life, I found that many of my transitional tasks were delayed, or not developed according to Erickson’s time frame. This might be due to the dysfunctional lifestyle, neglected childhood and promiscuous teenage years I had and it has taken me many years to develop my sense of identity, my sense of intimacy, and to change my behavior (Feldman, 2011). In the argument of Piaget he says that children at the age of three to five years think abstractly and this affects their motor development (Boyd, 2006). The first ten years of my childhood was confused, isolated, and fearful. I lived with my grandparents and I never could understand why I wasn’t with my parents who were able to take care of my two oldest brothers. I was so tormented in my mind. The devil came in to steal, kill, and destroy me at an early age. I always felt as an outcast and I remembered other children making fun of me calling me names to where I isolated myself from them. My grandmother was a Christian and we went to church in which I loved church. We lived in the country on a farm and I did not like to go out in the open because of the children in the community making fun of me but we had to walk to church. I was afraid and always crying, hiding under beds...

...Key Words and Phrases: Data Outsourcing, Private Information Retrieval, Access Privacy, Oblivious RAM. Fast and Secure Laptop Backups with Encrypted De-duplication Many people now store large quantities of personal and corporate data on laptops or home computers. These often have poor or intermittent connectivity, and are vulnerable to theft or hardware failure. Conventional backup solutions are not well suited to this environment, and backup regimes are frequently inadequate. This paper describes an algorithm which takes advantage of the data which is common between users to increase the speed of backups, and reduce the storage requirements. This algorithm supports client-end per-user encryption which is necessary for confidential personal data. It also supports a unique feature which allows immediate detection of common subtrees, avoiding the need to query the backup system for every file. We describe a prototype implementation of this algorithm for Apple OS X, and present an analysis of the potential effectiveness, using real data obtained...

...1) Searching the network: The low average path length will make searches very fast, while the small diameter of the graph will make flooding requests with a small TTL(Time To Live) an effective search technique. Also resource names not being uniform can be managed by intermediate nodes which know both names. But care has to be taken that all nodes in the boundary between the two regions with different names have to remember both names. Then, before forwarding, old names are replaced with new names. The nodes can have a small list of such names which can be analyzed every time a request is received. 2) Relative resource values: Each resource is given a default value initially, which is incremented every time it is requested and decremented every...

...In the early days of networking development, networks was chaotic. The protocols that were used to transfer the data from one computer to another computer were developed by hardware manufactures. Each vendor developed different proprietary protocols to support their own products. Some manufacturers even had multiple protocols, because protocols were developed independently for different computer platforms. The main problem with the protocols was, the protocols that were developed by one vendor were not compatible with other vendor networks. In this case, users had to buy all the devices of same to company to run a network. As the usage of computers increased all over the world, there was a need to use a common protocol to communicate across the world. If many different protocols for data communication exist, it is difficult to link computers into common networks. Thus, to resolve this chaos of multiple networks, ISO developed communication standards called OSI model. In this chapter, we will learn the basic concepts of OSI model and its characteristics. We will also see how the data is transmitted through layers of OSI model. 1.2.1 Seven layers of OSI model The Open System Interconnection (OSI) consists of a set of protocols that define and standardise the data communication process as shown in figure 1.2.1. The OSI model was defined and developed by the International Standard Organisation (ISO). ISO is an international body that provides international standards which...

...1. What did the customer server do well in this "scenario” The customer server asked his customer what kind of jackets his customer was trying to purchase. This is helpful because if the customer server knows about the specific jacket that his customer is trying to purchase then he can follow up with her and tell her if it’s in stock or not. Additionally the customer server asked if she recieved a reciept online. This question is resourceful because the receipt will be proof of her purchase. He also says to her that the reality is that she needs something and they don’t have it. This proves that the customer server is listening into her needs and that he gives her frequent feedback in this negotiation process. He then tells her to let him come up with a solution that will work for her and then he goes on to explain what he has. After that he offers her a discount which is great in the negotiation process because he’s unbundling his product so the customer doesn’t go...

...This assignment aimed to develop my understanding of the kinds of bizarre problems a system administrator will have to handle. I, as a Chief Information Officer (CIO) and System Administrator have been assigned to fix a broken computing environment. I have to outlining the problems with this computing environment, provide technical or procedural solutions to the problem and provide possible technological solution that may employ to solve a particular problem. One of the requirements of being a System Administrator is to make decisions about overall structures and procedures, and therefore, I have assigned to clean up the organization’s computing. There are few areas I should look into such as organization system and network, administration and management of system and network, service management, security, operating procedures, disaster recovery and organization requirement. Design of Systems and Network Based on the situation given, it is said that the organization’s servers and core network infrastructure are located in common workspace as other infrastructure and employee’s of the organization. This means everyone in the organization has the access to the servers. This can make them stealing data from the servers and when one access to the network, he or she can interrupt the boot process and gain access to multiple servers and systems. Hence, a physical security measurement has to be taken to restrict the access to the area besides providing the protection on core...

... 4. link layer encapsulates the datagram received from the network layer into a frame? In order for a datagram to be transferred from source host to destination host, it must be moved over each of the individual links in the end-to-end path. Over a given link, a transmitting node encapsulates the datagram in a link-layer frame and transmits the frame into the link; the receiving node then receives the frame and extracts the datagram. A link-layer protocol is used to move a datagram over an individual link. The link-layer protocol defines the format of the packets exchanged between the nodes at the ends of the link, as well as the actions taken by these nodes when the packets are sent and received. The units of data exchanged by a link-layer protocol are called frames, and that each link-layer frame typically encapsulates a network-layer datagram. The actions taken by a link-layer protocol when sending and receiving frames include error detection, retransmission, flow control, and random access. Examples of link-layer protocols: Ethernet, 802.11 wireless LANs also known as Wi-Fi, token ring, and PPP. 5. What operations does the link layer and physical Layer support? https://web.cs.wpi.edu/~cs4514/b98/week3-dll/week3-dll.html Operations of link layer and physical layer support Although the basic service of any link layer is to move a datagram from one node to an adjacent node over a single communication link, the details of the provided service can vary from one link-layer...

...WAN optimization tools are used mainly in application delivery networks which consist of WAN Optimization Controllers (WOCs) and Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs). On the data center end Application Delivery Controllers are present to distribute the traffic among servers based on application specific criteria. In the branch office portion of Application Delivery Controllers, WDC are present that uses its advanced compression and flow optimization capabilities to provide application availability, security, visibility, and acceleration. WAN Optimization mitigates the latency and bandwidth limitations of the WAN to provide remote users with access to applications in the data center. IT departments have been trying to take initiatives to meet their business objectives to reduce costs and consolidate resources. WAN optimization offers a solution to help them to reach their goals. Here are some of the initiatives where WAN optimization is critical. Data Center Consolidation To optimize infrastructure, secure physical assets, and reduce costs of operation, IT departments are coupling their IT infrastructure. Many organizations have consolidated to centralized data centers which often has a backup data center from regional data centers. These typically large data centers are deploying state-of-the-art servers that use virtualization in increase IT nimbleness. As a result, users who were close to a regional data center now find themselves distant and the users often experience poor...

...Before proceeding in problem determination, there are some initial questions to be answered. Have you changed anything recently? If you have changed, added, or removed software or hardware just before the problem occurred, back out the change and see if the problem persists. What else is running on the workstation? If you have other software, including a firewall, try switching it off to see if the problem persists. Is the problem reproducible on the same workstation? Knowing that this defect occurs every time the described steps are taken is helpful because it indicates a straightforward programming error. If the problem occurs at alternate times, or occasionally, thread interaction and timing problems in general are much more likely. Is the problem reproducible on another workstation? A problem that is not evident on another workstation might help you find the cause. A difference in hardware might make the problem disappear; for example, the number of processors. Also, differences in the operating system and application software installed might make a difference to the JVM. For example, the visibility of a race condition in the JVM or a user Java™ application might be influenced by the speed at which certain operations are performed by the system. Does the problem occur on multiple platforms? If the problem occurs only on one platform, it might be related to a platform-specific part of the JVM. Alternatively, it might be related to local code used inside a user application....

...Running head: CASE STUDY ANALYSIS PAPER 1: A TALE OF TWO COACHES Case Study Analysis Paper 1: A Tale of Two Coaches December 19, 2012 Bobby Knight is an American college basketball coach. He has the most coaching victories in NCAA men's basketball history. His 1975–76 Indiana University team had a perfect 32–0 record and went on to win the NCAA championship. He was the coach for the U.S. men's basketball team in 1984 and led them to Olympic gold. His temper was legendary and in 2000 he was fired from Indiana. (Bobby Knight Biography, 2012) Duke's Mike Krzyzewski is known as "Coach K”. He is known as “Coach K” to friends and admirers because "Krzyzewski" is hard to say and spell. He has the most notable record in college basketball. He has four national championships and has more wins than any other active men's basketball coach. Only Bobby Knight, who was his mentor from West Point, has more wins. (Zegers, n.d.) They are two of the most successful basketball in history. They share leadership styles, yet these styles are very different. Bobby Knight is an in your face type of coach. He uses fear and leads by using rewards and punishments. He uses tight supervision and control. Coach K believes in empowering his players and sets high goals and maintains standards. He leads with respect. He leads through personal power of being referent. Both coaches are passionate, disciplined, and competent in their jobs as a coach and care a lot for the players both on and off...

...Case Study Analysis Paper 1: A Tale of Two Coaches Coach Bobby Knight and Coach Mike Krzyzewski are perhaps two of the best effective college basketball instructors in the United Sates. Nonetheless, their management types may perhaps not be beyond diverse. The question asked is, if it is beneficial to be loved or to be feared. Both of these coaches contained within these leadership viewpoints and involved the next significant theories: • Effective leaders recognize their specific expectations about human character. • By what method you manage (leadership style) is subjective to who you are (self-awareness) and the requirements of the position (situational awareness). Increasing your self- perception, ability to adapt, and situational awareness your leadership type amplifies your general array of efficiency as a lead. Bobby Knight, otherwise recognized as "The General," is the person in charge to coach the basketball team from Texas Tech University. He is a heated, aggressive individual who leads throughout intimidation and discipline, which several commentators say goes too far with his discipline. Knight was dismissed after a lengthy profession for the Indiana University because he griped an apprentice, and before that, he was recorded holding one of his team members by the collar. Afterwards, the disreputable occurrence in a match happened when Coach Knight threw a foldaway chair crossway the courtyard to object an arbitrator's decision. Mike Krzyzewski, better identified...

...IV. Future trend The SDN network has been introduced a series of security checks, such as existing Intrusion Detection Systems and Intrusion Prevention Systems. As taking advantage of the decoupled data plane and control plane, the potential solution for the specific attack has been emerged and rapidly deployed. A.Virtual access point of edge For better security, we may want to transmit the cryptographic data through data plane. In order to separate the client device from encrypted data plane, one simple solution is to create a virtual access point that locates between the client device and the specific switch to encrypt and decrypt packets. The virtual access point, as an abstraction of software layer dynamically allocated by switches, can forward or drop the packet in both direction between the switch’s port and the client device. When the client tries to connect to the SDN network, the virtual access point will initially accept the data or request packets and forward them into the available port of switch. Then the switch will determine the action based on the flow table or forwarding the request to the controller. Once wanting to banned the client device or fail to find the client device, the controller only need to disable the related data path and terminate the virtual access point. If the client device want to send a vast of requests to perform DoS attack, the virtual access point will monitor the data rate and send exception status to the controller. Then, the controller...
