Under the old system it was considered to be a “thick client” model, which required all fully equipped machines. The output for the transaction process system in this case study is the customer information data, the number of pizza's sold along with toppings and costs of other food items sold. Also, the pizza tracker system, which allows customers to view a simulation of their pizza as it is being customized and created is part of their output. The management information system provides middle and upper management with reports on the company's current performance. According to the case study in our textbook, the Pulse system that was implemented in franchise stores also reported that they had improved customer service, reduced errors made at the store and had shorter training periods for new employees.

...Summary Paper for Super Tracker Due August 24, 2015 at 12:00 noon To wrap up your Super Tracker dietary analysis reports, please review your 3-day food and activity reports and lab. It’s time to pull all of this information together to decide if you want to make any changes to your diet or activity level. If you are making changes, what will they be? I’d like you to be specific. For example, don’t just say you will eat more vegetables, say what kind you will reasonably add to meet which nutritional need and how often you will need to do this and why (“I will add 2 cups of cooked broccoli and 1 cup of skim milk every day to add 420 mg. of calcium as I was 45% short of my requirements”). Your answer will reflect knowledge of the RDA or MyPlate recommendations for macro- and micronutrients, food sources, and your own diet. In addition, you should also reflect the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics/American Heart Association recommendations for omega-3’s, added sugars, and discretionary calories. In some cases, you may need to consider supplements. Please include your Nutrient, Food Group and Physical Activity (if applicable) reports. Please answer the following questions in your report. It should be no longer than one page, singlespaced. 1. How well does your 3-day food record compare to the My Plate model? If you are low in any category, suggest foods that you would add to meet the recommendations. a. Special note: remember that Dairy can include fortified soy, almond or rice milk...

...assignment involves five steps: 1) Keep two 24-hour logs of your food intake. For purposes of this assignment, do not include dietary supplements. 2) Keep two 24-hour logs of your activities. These should be the same two days on which you record your food intake! 3) Generate an eating plan and analyze your food intake and physical activity according to MyPlate online (www.myplate.gov). 4) Go to “My Reports,” provide the info requested, and print out your food intake and physical activity along with your personalized plan. 5) Using your results, evaluate the quality of your food intake and your activity level. Detailed directions: 1) On the diet logs attached, record everything you eat in two 24-hour periods, carefully noting amounts. Remember to keep track of beverages and condiments, too. The more accurate you are in recording amounts, the more accurate your analysis will be. For help in judging portion sizes, you can use the “Size Up Your Servings” handout available in the Oncourse Resources folder (i.e. 3 oz of meat is like a deck of cards…). 2) On the activity log attached, write down every activity you do beginning at 7 a.m. on one day and ending at 7 a.m. the following day. Remember to include all activities of daily living such as dressing, showering, driving a car, reading, etc. Include work and recreational activities, and include weekly activities that don't occur every day. The log gives you an example of how to convert weekly activities into hours/day. 3)...

...Tracking food intakes is essential to determine if a person is consuming adequate nutrients over periods. Tracking intakes helps to get on track and stay on track with healthy nutritional diets. Keeping track helps to determine if adjustments made to the diet are sufficient to achieve optimal nutrient amounts. After making the adjustments a food intake tracker will help to determine if more adjustments need made later or if I am on the right track. A food diary is an excellent way to track food intakes and calorie intakes. I input my food intakes from Monday to Wednesday and compared them with a previous intake analysis from six weeks ago. The new analysis was encouraging, my nutritional intakes improved drastically especially in the area of protein which was a previous struggle. My vegetable intake has increased to a good level; my whole grain intake has increased to a good level, and my protein intake increased. The new analysis did still show a need for improvement in dairy and fruit. My weekly intake of dairy and fruit has improved however, my daily intakes are still lacking. I need to work to find alternates methods of receiving adequate dairy intakes such as supplements, purchasing soymilk, or yogurts. I also need to continue to work at including fruit in my daily diet, I can grab an apple or banana with my breakfast bar I take to work with me. I purchased kiwi for a snack I can slice one up and include this as a snack option. Monday on the food diary entries...

Five teams of three students each completed the seminar, resulting in creative, useful and sometimes also provoking use of fictitious open data. As open datain Austria is in its infancy (for more information visit open3.at orgov.opendata.at), teams had difficulties finding existing open (government) data sources. Some teams solved this problem by augmenting their application ideas with user-generated content as the main data source. The horizontal prototypes for the evaluation were implemented with various tools, includingTitanium Mobile, Sencha Touch and also native development on iOS and Android platforms. We proudly present the mobile application concepts of our five participating student teams. Note that most screens contain static data used only for the evaluation of the prototypes. The applications are (also if stated otherwise) not available on any store at the moment. ------------------------------------------------- Team AAA_Team: RegioBioFood Aleksandar Djordjevic, Alex Brandner, Andreas Hörmann RegioBioFood is an application which helps people to find bio products in an easier way, only by few clicks on their android smart phone.

...the C-level executives. They controll and oversee the entire organization. They make and develop strategic plans, company policies, and decisions on the direction of the business. The board of directors is typically primarily composed of non-executives which carry out duty to shareholders and are not closely involved in the day-to-day activities of the organization, although this varies depending on the type (e.g., public versus private), size and culture of the organization. The board sets corporate strategy, makes major decisions such as major acquisitions, and hires, evaluates, and fires the top-level manager (and the CEO typically hires other positions. The board may also have certain employees (e.g., internal auditors) report to them or directly hire independent contractors; for example, the board (through the audit committee) typically selects the auditor. Helpful skills of top management vary by the type of organization but typically include a broad understanding competition, world economies, and politics. In addition, the CEO is responsible for executing and determining (within the board's framework) the broad policies of the organization.

...Health Promotion Among Diverse Populations: Understanding the Challenges Faced by the Native Hawaiian Population Kristen L. Gallagher Grand Canyon University: NRS 429V March 7, 2015 There are many diverse cultural groups living in the world today. The United States is no exception, with the U.S. Census bureau reporting that as of 2010, more than 36% of the U.S. population identified themselves as members of a minority group (Hixson, Hepler & Kim, 2012). While many people face challenges in access to healthcare, members of minority populations face even greater barriers. In an effort to combat some of these difficulties, the Department of Health & Human Services established the Healthy People 2020 initiative. Healthy People 2020 is an evidence based plan designed to improve the health of our country’s people by reducing preventable health diseases (“About Healthy People”, 2010). The people native to the Hawaiian Islands face roadblocks to healthcare that are uncommon in the rest of the country, and the Healthy People 2020 action plan faces unusual considerations in Hawaii that are not concerns on the mainland (“Hawaii’s Healthy People”, 2012). Hawaii has long been thought of as paradise, with its temperate climate, beautiful beaches and the culture of its native people. While these visions of Hawaii may be true, Hawaii also suffers from exorbitant costs of living, geographically limited healthcare, and the dilution of a culture in which native Hawaiian people...

Saad, M. Shabri Abd. Majid, Salina Kassim, Zarinah Hamid and Rosylin Mohd. Yusof Department of Economics, Kulliyyah of Economics and Management Sciences, International Islamic University Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Abstract Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the efficiency of selected conventional and Islamic unit trust companies in Malaysia during the period 2002 to 2005. Design/methodology/approach – The paper adopts Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to investigate efficiency, as measured by the Malmquist index, which is decomposed into two components: efficiency change and technical change indexes. Findings – The study indicates that technical efficiency is the main contributor to enhancing the efficiency of the Malaysian unit trust industry. In addition, the larger the size of the unit trust companies, the more inefficient the performance. In comparing the efficiency of unit trust companies, the study finds that some of the Islamic unit trust companies perform better than their conventional counterparts. Research limitations/implications – The study is limited to five Islamic unit trust companies. Thus, the findings of this study are indicative, but inconclusive for the unit trust industry as a whole. Practical implications...

Faced with issues like chronic illnesses, fragmentation, and population of baby boomers that affect the challenges of cost, access, and quality of care; it can be argued that the use of health information devices has positive impact on the delivery of healthcare. Since “the future of healthcare technology is now” (Glandon, Smaltz, & Slovensky, 2014, p. 27), developments in the production of healthcare information devices have been on the increase, popular, and widely used by patients and providers. Some of these devices, which include smart phones, computers, smart glasses like Google glasses, activities trackers, and wearable devices, have impacted and transformed the delivery of healthcare in ways that include cost of healthcare, access to healthcare, and quality of the care delivered. Introduction It is a common knowledge that developments in technology is continually changing, is responsible for globalization, helps with effective evaluation of business and decision-making, and enables the growth of information technology. Similarly, the areas of information technology and healthcare delivery are also presently active, developing, and constantly changing. As a result, the management of health information technology is currently enabling versatility in the delivery of healthcare, helping with the process of making it precise...
