...Ayman Abdeldayem CMIS 320 A piano manufacturer wants to track all pianos it makes. Each piano has a unique serial number and a manufacturing completion date. Each instrument represents exactly one piano model, all of which have an identification number and model. The company produces thousands of pianos of a certain model, and the design is specified before any single piano exists. 1. Identify the degree and cardinalities of the relationship. The degree is the number of attributes in a relation. For this company, the attributes to distinguish between the products would be serial number, completion date, piano model, and identification number. This company makes thousands of pianos per model, and makes many different models. “Cardinality is the number of tuples in a relation,” in this case, a tuple would be a single piano model. So depending on the number of different piano models they produce will be the cardinality. 2. Express the relationships graphically with an E-R diagram. A vendor builds multiple types of tablet computers. Each has a type, identification number, and a name. The key specifications for each type include amount of storage and display type. The company uses multiple processor types, exactly one of which is used for a specific tablet type. The same processor can be used in multiple types of tablets. Each processor has a manufacturer and a manufacturer's unique code that identifies it. 1. Identify the degree and cardinalities of the relationship...

...Homework Assignment #2 Analysis Input: The input of this program will consist of the base price (BasePrice), the operating system choice (OSChoice), the monitor choice (MonitorChoice), and the case choice (CaseChoice). After the user has made all of the required choices, the program will determine the appropriate cost of that option: OSCost, MonitorCost, and CaseCost. Output: The required output for the program will be the total cost (TotalCost) of the state of the art gaming computer. The program will then determine the total cost of the state of the art gaming computer by using the following computation: TotalCost = BasePrice+OSCost+MonitorCost+CaseCost. Variables: BasePrice // The cost of the computer prior to the user deciding on the three options OSChoice // The operating system selected by the user Win7 // Windows 7 Home Premium Win8 // Windows 8.1 RedHat // Red Hat Linux 9.0 Personal MonitorChoice // The monitor selected by the user Asus // Asus 23.6” LED ViewSonic // ViewSonic 20” LED Acer // Acer 23” LCD CaseChoice // The case selected by the user Thermal // Thermaltake Gaming Case Rosewill // Rosewill Black Gaming Case NZXT // NZXT Guardian Gaming Case OSCost // The cost of the selected operating system MonitorCost // The cost of the selected monitor CaseCost // The cost of the selected case TotalCost // The total cost of the gaming system Design Input the base price of the computer Calculate user selected options to add the additional...

...Week 3 Homework for CMIS 102. * Program description: This program will calculate the total price of a laptop computer system. The program will ask the user to enter the desired CPU speed, RAM amount, Hard Drive and Monitor Size. The program use these values to calculate and then print the price of a computer system. The design step will include both pseudocode and flow chart visualization. * Analysis: I will use sequential and selection programming statements. I will define 1 float number for CPU and 4 integers for the RAM(random access memory), Hard Drive, Display and Price : CPU, RAM, HD, Monitor, Price. I will be using selection statements (If- then) to find out CPU, RAM, HD and Monitor variable option and price. For example if we have: Two HD Options: 250GB ($50) and 500GB($ 100) Two RAM Options: 4GB($ 100) and 8GB( $150) Two Display Options: 13 Inch Retna($150) and 15 inch ($250) Two CPU options: 2.7GHz ($900) and 2.9GHz ($1000) The selection statement will be of this form: //Input CPU if (CPU == 2.7) then * set price = 900 * if (CPU == 2.9) then set price = 1000 We will repeat this process for every each of our variables, since we have only a few options it should not take much time. Otherwise we will have to group some of our options. The next step will be to find out the total Price of our selected laptop computer system by simple adding all variable and Print our computer Price. Price = CPU+ RAM+HD+ Display; printf...

Assume that the house has a maximum of four rooms, and that each room is rectangular. A. Problem Analysis – Following the directions in the assignment, clearly write up your problem analysis in this section. In this program the overall goal is to obtain the usable area in square feet in a house. The results or overall goal would be considered the required output. To obtain the required output we would need the necessary input. The necessary information regarding the house is that it contains a maximum of four rooms that are rectangular in shape. I will obtain the required output from the given input by multiplying length x width to find the number of square feet in each rectangular room. Once the combined square footage of each room is determined this will give me the amount of usable living space. We would need to know each room length and width, then calculate each rooms area and then find the sum of all four rooms. Area of Room 1= Length1 x Width1 Area of Room 2= Length2 x Width2 Area of Room 3= Length3 x Width3 Area of Room 4= Length4 x Width4 Area of Room 1 + Room 2 + Room 3 =Room 4 = Total Square footage B.

...Leadership Development Seminars and ECQ-based Readings The success or failure of any endeavor depends on leadership. Now, more than ever before, we need leaders in our organizations and in our world. Great leaders create and communicate a vision and move people into action to achieve it. They ignite our passion and inspire us to do our best. Government leaders in the 21st century are experiencing change at a more rapid pace than previous generations. Rapid advances in technology have expanded the quantity of work we are capable of accomplishing, and also where it’s accomplished. We have a more highly educated workforce, yet face diminishing resources with an increased demand for productivity, and the essential services we provide to the American public. To be successful at navigating these challenges leaders must develop the essential skills to motivate their employees, effectively communicate with others, fine-tune critical thinking skills, and build and leverage partnerships. Future leaders must also be visionary; i.e., possess the ability to identify trends and the courage to be innovative. Being technically adept in your field will no longer be enough. In response to these demands on senior executives, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management identified five Executive Core Qualifications (ECQs) that all aspiring government leaders and executives must possess. These ECQs and Fundamental Competencies were developed by OPM after extensive research on the attributes...
