...INREODUCTION ATM, stand for Automated Transaction Machine. Other names for this system are called automated banking machine cash-point (in Britain), money machine, bank machine, cash machine, and hole-in-the-wall. From the name we can observe that different countries have their own culture. There are two primary types of ATM. The most basic is allowing customer to withdraw money, and check the bank account balance. To access these features, you usually need to be a member of the bank that operates the machine. The history of ATM was started with at the year 1960, with the growth of the PC and a telecommunications industry, the 1st Atm was installed at a branch of Barclays Bank in London. Automated transaction machine is a terminal that bank customers access their bank accounts in order to make cash, use to perform withdrawals, check their account balances and other transactions with their bank account. Besides, ATM is a computerized telecommunication device that provide bank customer convenient. Customer can access the financial transaction at anytime anywhere without the need for a cashier, clerk or bank teller.

...CIS 210 - Use Case for ATM Services 4/29/12 Kevin Hagan Dr. Yohannes Abate Making a withdrawal via an Automated Teller Machine Making a withdrawal of funds from your bank account via an automated teller machine (ATM) is easy (Richardson). There are only a few steps involved, and there is no need for the customer to have to go to the bank itself anymore. While there are no restrictions, you can make withdrawals from any ATM on the street, the only exception over using the bank’s ATM is that they may charge you a fee for using another banks/companies ATM. For illustration, we will be using an ATM at the bank itself, so that if there is a problem then the customer can go inside and discuss this problem with a representative of the bank. The assumption is that you are at the ATM and currently have an account with the bank. Step 1: Insert your ATM card or credit card. Step 2: Enter your personal identification number (PIN). Step 3: Select “Withdrawal” from the transaction menu. Step 4: Select “cash” from the next transaction menu. Step 5: Select the amount of cash you wish to withdraw. At this step, either you can withdraw a preselected amount, or you can enter any other amount. Step 6: When prompted, select confirm on the amount that you wish to withdraw. Step 6: Take your detailed receipt with a summary of your withdrawals. Step 7: Remove your ATM card from the machine. The alternate of using the ATM is to go inside the bank, wait for the next teller, and...

New Orleans began rebuilding a justice system that is indeed both effective and just. New Orleans’ justice system would implement innovations that would allow the city to allocate more resources toward protecting public safety, improving public trust and confidence, and rebuilding the city (The Vera Institute of Justice, 2007). Around the nation other advances are being made that benefit all of the public. One of the technological techniques used is IAFIS. IAFIS stands for Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System. IAFIS is a national fingerprint and criminal history system that responds to requests 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to help our local, state, and federal partners—and our own investigators—solve and prevent crime and catch criminals and terrorists (U.S. Federal Government, n.d.). The fingerprints and criminal history information are submitted voluntarily by state,...

...Week 4 Assignment 2: Use Cases CIS 210: Systems Analysis and Development November 3, 2013 A use case with typical and alternate courses that documents the event of a bank customer withdrawing money from an ATM. In this particular use-case scenario a system analysis will be identified when a bank customer interacts with an ATM to withdraw money. Typical and alternate courses will be identified. A use-case diagram will be used as a tool to provide clarification of the necessary components or processes including hardware, system software, process and human interaction to layout or plan and identify the various components necessary to produce the desired session outcome. Rouse (2007) describes the use-case methodology; “A use case is a methodology used in system analysis to identify, clarify, and organize system requirements. The use case is made up of a set of possible sequences of interactions between systems and users in a particular environment and related to a particular goal. It consists of a group of elements (for example, classes and interfaces) that can be used together in a way that will have an effect larger than the sum of the separate elements combined. The use case should contain all system activities that have significance to the users. A use case can be thought of as a collection of possible scenarios related to a particular goal, indeed, the use case and goal are sometimes considered to be synonymous.” In this...

Even business that has automated or computerized processes such as scheduling, time cards sheets to collect time and attendance data. NOVA time a group system developer, on last May 2007, the system that will give management the power to not only utilize the tools we have available to us today, but will continue to grow and evolve, giving it the capability to incorporate and utilize the tools the new millennium promises to bring us. NOVA time has brought a system designed for growth while maintaining the maximum in flexibility. Where the sophistication lies within the programmed mechanism of the system, allowing for a quick and simple implementation and employee training cycle, after all the true test of a system is not only in the production and wealth of reporting, but in the simplicity and ease of its operation in conjunction with a simple and accommodating implementation program.

...Christopher de León Mizzou Online ID – 444531 crd3n3@mail.missouri.edu English 1000 Exposition and Argumentation The Resistance Toward ATMs It is widely believed that the Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) is a fusion of several different technological inventions throughout the early 1960s. Originating from Luther Simjian’s Bankograph, the ATM is intended to allow its users to complete basic transactions without the assistance of a bank teller (Automated Teller Machines, 2010). Today, many people actually resist the use of ATMs because of the cyber and physical risks associated with their use. This technology is widely opposed due to shortcomings on security, the increased cost of usage, and a non-existent human interface. Though the ATM was meant to provide and ensure users banking satisfaction, these limitations, through error and lack of immediate transparency, prevent the simplicity and efficiency that the machine was intended to provide. First and foremost, ATMs are a threat to the security of both the financial institutions and their account holders. There are three key vulnerabilities presented when using an ATM. There is a threat to physical security, a threat to virtual security, and the threat of fraud. Physical security is at stake given that a machine is somehow broken in to. If you take 5 minutes to scour the Internet, you will find a plethora of reports from various cities where ATMs were physically broken in to and robbed. In 2014 alone, over 619 explosive attacks...

...time and money by not having to stand in line to make a bank deposit. In addition, many banks give free checking if the paycheck is direct deposited. More and more employers are establishing direct deposit programs under which the net check is deposited directly into an employee's personal checking or savings ac- count. Some employer programs involve direct deposit only to employee accounts at the financial institution where the employer maintains its payroll account. This is known as an "Intra Bank" option. However, an increasing number of direct deposit programs make use of a nationwide network of automated clearing houses (ACHs) that enables the employer to make payroll deposits into accounts maintained by employees at almost any financial institution in the country. Advantages of Direct Deposit Benefits for the employer include: Cost Savings: According to the National Automated Clearing House Association, an employer may pay 10 to 23 cents less per payment using direct deposit compared to the cost of issuing paychecks Value as an employee benefit: Direct deposit may be perceived as an extra employee benefit, yet is inexpensive to the employer Security: Problems of lost or stolen checks are eliminated Streamlining of payroll...

...but focus instead on the main approaches. After reading the chapter the reader will be familiar with the terminology of the area, as well as with the most important concepts and techniques. Moreover the chapter will allow the reader to contextualise and put into perspective the topics that are covered in detail in the book. Why do we need an overview of formal methods? Why not just study one rigorous method for software development? This is a very pertinent and legitimate question. The behavioural essence of software is not captured by a unique unified mathematical theory. Such a general foundation is unlikely to exist. Think for instance about the diversity of programming language paradigms and theories, and the resulting jungle of existing computer programming languages. Is there a definite paradigm (or, even, language) that makes obsolete all the other ones? Clearly not. Different languages will be chosen by different people to solve the same problem, and someone may well use different languages to solve different problems. Similarly, depending on the goals of the software designers and of the verification process, one may prefer a theory over another one, and even use more than one theory (and related formal methods techniques and tools), in the context of the development of a single system. Even if the theory is fixed, several dialects and related tools may exist for it. Turning back to the programming language analogy, think for instance of the different existing C or Prolog dialects...

...Resent trends of banking system in India 1. Introduction The economy can be divided in the entire spectrum of economic activity into the real and monetary sectors. The real sector is where production takes place while the monetary sector supports this production and in a way is the means to the end. We know and we accept the financial system is critical to the working of the rest of the economy. In fact, the Asian crisis of the nineties, or for that matter what happened in Latin America and Russia subsequently and also Dubai Crisis have shown how a fragile financial sector can wreak havoc on the rest of the economy. Therefore the banking sector is crucial and we want to express our views to explore how this sector can work in harmony with the real sector to achieve the desired objectives. The Banking sector has been immensely benefited from the implementation of superior technology during the recent past, almost in every nation in the world. Productivity enhancement, innovative products, speedy transactions seamless transfer of funds, real time information system, and efficient risk management are some of the advantage derived through the technology. Information technology has also improved the efficiency and robustness of business processes across banking sector. India's banking sector has made rapid strides in reforming and aligning itself to the new competitive business environment. Indian banking industry is the midst of an IT revolution. Technological infrastructure has...
