...SE571 Course Project Phase I Professor Wagner November 13, 2011 Security Assessment: Course Project Phase I Introduction This report focuses on a security assessment of Aircraft Solutions (AS), which is a well-known leader in the design and fabrication of component products and services for companies in the electronics, commercial, defense, and aerospace industry. Headquartered in Southern California, AS depends heavily on its highly trained workforce, with a large skill base, that is beneficial for the company’s production. The goal of this report is to identify potential vulnerabilities or threats within the operations at AS while identifying their risks and consequences to the firm. Security Weaknesses Given the three areas if investigation for potential weaknesses to the security of AS, hardware, software and policy, In terms of AS assets and how they will be affected if a security threat is placed, I have concluded that one of its major assets is its Business Process Management Hardware (BPM), which handles end-to-end processes that deal with multiple systems and organizations. AS’s operations rely on this system to connect customers, vendors, and suppliers. If affected by a security threat, AS would not be able to function as usual and information could be potentially harmed. Therefore, I have decided to focus this assessment on the areas of hardware and policy. For instance, in the area of hardware it is noticeable in the network infrastructure that there...

E-mail: mjricca@liberty.edu Questions and Answers This segment will encompass six numerical and sequential questions, with the question, being first, with its derived answer directly below it. 1. “If someone wanted to know where to find the official criteria for proper APA style, what source would be used?” If one wanted to find or obtain the official source representing proper APA style, one could elicit the internet and find the exacting website, and or obtain the official manual itself, by utilizing the proper discovery and identification reference, which is: Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 6th ed. Washington, DC: American Psychological Association, 2010. 2. “How many levels of headings are identified in APA style? What would be the proper style for each of those headings?”(Describe how each of those headings would be formatted.) What is the purpose for using different levels of headings?” The APA recommends five workable formatting constructs concurrent with the regulating levels, which are considered subordinate. The specific heading levels are numbered one through five, irrespective of the amount of stages and the subheadings within in its division and the headings construct. For all of the divisions ensue the same or similar development. The segments initiate a protocol from the uppermost rank of heading...

...Is competition necessarily beneficial for consumers? Niall Douglas Firstly, I shall summarise the Neo-Classical Economic interpretation of the maximisation of social welfare through the concept of perfect competition versus monopolies. Secondly, I shall state a range of empirical evidence drawn from various sources negating the Neo-Classical interpretation, from which it shall become clear in what situations the Neo-Classical model fails. Lastly, I shall outline a game theory explanation of the typical case where monopoly invariably outperforms competition. The Neo-Classical Economic Interpretation According to this interpretation, social welfare (in the sense of maximising allocative efficiency1) is maximised only under perfect competition where infinitely tiny (relative to all other competing) firms are price takers2. In contrast, monopolies, whom are price setters through their ability to affect their market, create a deadweight loss to society as output is lower than is socially optimal3. This model is summarised by the top graph in Figure 1 below where Pm and Qm are aggregate equilibrium price & quantity for monopolies and Ppc and Qpc are for perfectly competitive firms. The graph on the bottom is that for a single perfectly competitive firm, with its straight line fixed price. 1 By ‘allocative efficiency’ I mean reaching a Pareto Efficient Optimum whereby any further change would make the aggregate of consumers and firms (ie; society) worse off according...

...Cognitive Neuropsychology (psy2010s) | Visual Perception and the Pop-out Effect | Tutorial 1 Assignment | | Zondi Londiwe (ZNDLON002) | 8/30/2013 | | INTRODUCTION Visual information is constantly presented to humans by the environment, and at times this can be far more than can be processed or needed. It is visual attention that allows the most relevant information for behaviour adjustment to be selected. Searching for particular objects that determine our actions whilst ignoring other competing objects can take long, especially if the objects all share common features. A number of theories that explain the process of visual search have been presented throughout the years. However the most common is the Feature Integration Theory developed by Treisman & Gelade (1980). According to The feature integration theory, visual search happens in a two-stage process, the pre-attentive stage and the attentive stage. The pre-attentive stage is the basic stage of visual search where only basic features, such as the size, colour and orientation, of an object are processed (Treisman, 1988; Treisman & Galade, 1980). At this stage no focused attention is required because all the objects in the visual stimulus are processed in parallel. The second stage requires more attention as the search becomes serial i.e. each object is processed independently ((Treisman & Gelade, 1980). Also, parallel searching takes less time than serial searching. Parallel and serial processing...

Previous publications on the Work System Method and also on Design Science concepts and their relevance for Systems Analysis and Design are reviewed. We suggest some directions for further work on the diffusion of work system method ideas in systems analysis and design organized along the conceptual framework for IS research by Hevner, March, Park and Ram. Keywords: systems development, work system method, systems analysis and design. 1. INTRODUCTION Hevner et al (2004) presented seminal directions for work in design science within the Information Systems field. These lead subsequently to an increased interest in research in Systems Analysis and Design (SA&D) (see Bajaj et al., 2005; Iivari et al., 2005 and Harris et al., 2006). The importance of Systems Analysis and Design for any program of study in information systems and, we may add, to the field of IS development is well summarized...

...the lean enterprise paradigm (Womack and Jones 1996). While I am more optimistic about the future of the discipline, relevant dimensions of change promise to significantly alter the nature and scope of marketing strategy and its implementation. Business strategy has entered a new market and competitive environment, appropriately designated as the market-driven era because of its central focus on the market as the basis for strategy design and implementation (Cravens, Greenley, Piercy, and Slater 1998; Day 1994). A pervasive dimension of this era is the pivotal role of the market in guiding strategic change. While the paradigms based on the market-driven era continue to evolve, it is apparent that markets provide the focus of strategic thought and practice. This focus offers an array of challenges and opportunities to the marketing discipline. Many academics and executives are examining the fundamental assumptions and guidelines underlying strategy formulation. An extensive array of strategy paradigms is proposed to assist executives in strategy design. While no paradigm dominates strategic thought and practice, there are several key characteristics shared by the various views of strategy. The characteristics of market-driven strategies include (1) developing a shared vision about the market and how it is expected to change in the future; Journal...
