Disasters such as crippling power surges that shut down a system or ones that completely corrupts the database or issues that arise from Hardware or software failures or possibly from upgrading a system to a newer “better version”. To help combat these threats there are two basic types of controls; General controls, and Application controls. These controls help to control how the database is used, monitored and protected, as well as set in place firm documentation that outlines how the system is used and methods to ensure the proper use and maintenance of the system. General & Application controls: General controls: Monitors and secures the use of the system throughout the organization, protects data through consistent backups as well as ensuring procedures and standards are followed. Application controls: Risk - Data Input: Are Input controls in place help to ensure that all data that is being entered into...

...End User Computing (EUC) refers to systems in which non-programmers can create working applications. EUC is a group of approaches to computing that aim at better integrating end users into the computing environment. These approaches attempt to realize the potential for high-end computing to perform in a trustworthy manner in problem solving of the highest order. Partly as a result of the development of high powered desktop computer and user friendly languages, there is a trend to assign both program development and actual computing to user. Instead of centralized group completing development of appropriate application, user will develop the program. The role of the experts is to provide users with the tools that enable them to develop their own reports and application and also to serve as a technical consultant. The EUC Ranges section describes two types of approaches that are at different ends of a spectrum. 1. The first approach would have canned queries and reports that for the most part would be invoked with buttons and/or simple commands. 2. For the second approach, SQL administration would allow for end-user involvement at several levels including administration itself. Between these two extremes view of EUC there are many combinations. Some of the factors contributing to the need for further EUC research are knowledge processing, pervasive computing, issues of ontology, interactive visualization EUC might work by one type of approach that attempts to integrate...

...Cloud Computing Research ITT Tech University Bobby L Lemon Cloud Computing Research The purpose of this paper is to provide a comparative study of cloud computing within the three major companies, Amazon, Google and Rackspace. In the process we also take a close look at the generalized characteristics of cloud computing technology. According to the NIST, there are five basic characteristics of cloud computing, and are defined as follows. There is an on demand self-service, broad network access, resource pooling, rapid elasticity, and measured service. The on demand self-service is a service provided by cloud computing venders, which enables the cloud resources to be accessed by the user at any time. A broad network access is a private network used within a company’s firewall, which is available for access from a wide range of locations that’s only requirement is internet accessibility. Resource pooling is defined as a situation where cloud providers serve multiple clients with provisional and often graduated services. The services in question may be adjusted seamlessly to the individual needs of the client. Rapid elasticity is the ability to provide those scalable, provisional services. Measured service are the aspects of cloud service that are directly controlled by the cloud provider Amazon Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides a sliding scale compute capacity within the cloud. It is the most widely used cloud computing provider...

...standards. The document set is designed to support software development activities. It provides a framework for use in undergraduate software engineering projects, both individual and team-based, that helps students to learn best practice. A supplementary report describes the content of each document in more detail. 1. Background. Projects form an important part of the education of software engineers. They form an active method of teaching, as defined by Piaget, leading to a "training in self-discipline and voluntary effort" [1], which is important to software engineering professionals. Two purposes served by these projects are: education in professional practice, and outcomes-based assessment, as identified in the ACM/IEEE Computing Curricula 2001 [2]. An infrastructure must be provided whereby the students are well guided in their learning, yet have an opportunity to display their individual achievements for the purposes of assessment. This corresponds to the ‘ integrational’ and ‘ differential’ modes of education as described by Cook in “Educational Measurement” [11]. Software engineering projects, as defined by the IEEE/EIA, consist of a number of development activities [10]. Each activity is characterised by a set of deliverables, normally in the form of code or documentation. Providing a structured template for software documentation assists both the educational and the assessment aspects of a software engineering...

A computerized grading system is a highly desirable addition to the educational tool-kit, particularly when it can provide less effort and a more effective and timely outcome. Grading systems are designed to provide incentives for achievement and assist in identifying problem areas of a student. It is the most commonly used means of analyzing student performance, talents and skills. Students’ grades are vital information needed in advancing to the next grade/year level and its accuracy is very important. Many teachers feel that the time they take in recording and computing for the grades of their students is time that could be better spent elsewhere, like preparing lessons, researching or meeting with their students. With the advent of computer technology, more and more schools are taking advantage of a variety of grading...

...The Amoeba Distributed Operating System 1. INTRODUCTION Roughly speaking, we can divide the history of modern computing into the following eras: 1970s: Timesharing (1 computer with many users) 1980s: Personal computing (1 computer per user) 1990s: Parallel computing (many computers per user) Until about 1980, computers were huge, expensive, and located in computer centers. Most organizations had a single large machine. In the 1980s, prices came down to the point where each user could have his or her own personal computer or workstation. These machines were often networked together, so that users could do remote logins on other people’s computers or share files in various (often ad hoc) ways. Nowadays some systems have many processors per user, either in the form of a parallel computer or a large collection of CPUs shared by a small user community. Such systems are usually called parallel or distributed computer systems. This development raises the question of what kind of software will be needed for these new systems. To answer this question, a group under the direction of Prof. Andrew S. Tanenbaum at the Vrije Universiteit (VU) in Amsterdam (The Netherlands) has been doing research since 1980 in the area of distributed computer systems. This research, partly done in cooperation with the Centrum voor Wiskunde en Informatica (CWI), has resulted in the development of a new distributed operating system, called Amoeba, designed for an environment consisting...
