...------------------------------------------------- Unit 2 Assignment 2: New Technology in My Field-Research and Essay The field I am going into or simply getting my degree in Associate’s of Applied Science in Network Systems Administration. One of the new technology is the mysterious cloud. The cloud storage is a storage network not device, because it is over the network. It is software in the network that allows a person to access the data anywhere by smartphone, laptop, desktop, Apple Iphone, or any other mobile device or tablet. That data is saved online rather than saving it on an expensive external device, or having to delete the old file to make new room for new data having to be saved. The physical storage for the cloud spans across multiple servers and many locations as well as several hosting companies. The cloud storage has four models, they are public, which is available to the public over the internet, private, which is for corporations and businesses only, community, for non-profit organizations and so forth, and lastly the hybrid version which is the combination of all three. In 2006 Amazon came out with their version of the online cloud storage called the AWS S3. Then later on Microsoft and Apple came out of their version as well. Other companies have created their version but, they have not succeeded in keeping their business afloat, causing them to go bankrupt. It is hard to stay with a small company that offers cloud storage because when they go bankrupt...

...Radio frequency identification (RFID) chips are used in many aspects of the world today. The article that I will be summarizing, discusses certain applications used today. It also briefly points out the ethical and privacy dilemma that society may face today and in the future. This article was written as a reference for Capella University. The tracking uses for Radio frequency identification (RFID) chips are boundless, and there are many possibilities for them to expand in the very near future. They are used for everything from tracking a person’s medical history to finding someone’s lost dog, to tracking shipments and supplies. “Their purpose is to make our world more efficient, to help businesses better track their inventories, to make sure pertinent personal information is quickly available to those who need it.” (Brown, 2005) With the amount of information that is readily available thanks to RFID technology, the issue of people’s private data comes into question. “According to Brown, a balance can be found between the security that RFID chips offer and the privacy they threaten.” (Brown, 2005) This would assist in limiting the amount of information that is retrievable, essentially making the information available on a need to know basis. At the same time, the necessary security can be maintained. This balance has to be established because “anyone can go online and purchase a relatively inexpensive chip reader and start harvesting information from RFID chips...

...GS 1145 Strategies Unit 11 Assignment 1 Reflection Kelly S Draney This class has been an eye opener for me in respect that I was a real procrastinator. It has helped to open my eyes to the fact that I need to get my homework done and in on time. With the assignment on scheduling I found that I wasted a lot of time during the day, when I could be getting things done. Breaking down my schedule into blocks showed me that I had a lot of wasted time watching TV when I could be more productive. Having to juggle time for work and school was something I was not accustomed to. I have a greater respect for my students now seeing what they have to go through. The other thing this class helped me with, was learning how to use the Microsoft Office Suites programs better. I had no idea how to use Power Point before this class. Gratefully we were put into small groups to work on these projects. The good thing about these projects was it gave me a chance to learn about Power Point. I was surprised how easy it really is to use. It also helped to learn the different rules about completing a Power Point Presentation. I enjoyed being in your class. I heard a lot of good comments from students who felt you were tough, but fair. You created a fun learning environment in class. I look forward to having you again for an instructor later on in my studies....

...Christopher Hernandez GS 1145 Introduction: Mobile Technology has evolved rapidly over the past few years. A standard mobile device has gone from mobile phone to a hand held gaming system, web browser and GPS navigation device. Not to mention the ever so popular tablet computers. Summary of key findings: Mobile Technology has led to anyone being reachable at anytime, day or night. It has literally shrunken the world to the palm of your hand. Although convenient I believe it has led to a people becoming Anti- social. Due to the lack of personality it has become common for people not to know how to react to real world problems. The environmental impacts of mobile technology are overwhelming. It is estimated that 61 percent of the world population owns some type of mobile device. It leaves us with 140 million phones being dumped in landfills. Not to mention the cardboard packaging and foam going to waste increasing the amount of trash. Keeping a mobile device on person makes it easier than ever to contact 911 in case of an emergency immediately. With no need to waste time trying to locate a phone to use. It is estimated that 70 percent of 911 calls are made from a mobile device. Even in non emergencies, for example a car emergency mobile devices make requesting help much easier. Conclusion: We are already seeing a slow down in the advancement of mobile technology. Not because a lack of technology, But a lack...

...“Where I Was’ Reflection Colby Gordillo ITT Tech GS 1145 Bart Demeter July 5, 2014 “Where I Was” Reflection . A few years ago I graduated from high school, and started working in the factory industry one month after. A few months later I attended college at Grand Rapids Community College. At that time, I did not know I was going to fail and drop out three times at that same college. And, then attend two other colleges. All of this had happened in the past 4 years. The reason as to why I had failed so many times was that I was not ready for school. I felt that I was ready because of just finishing high school, and that I would have that same mentality. Apparently I was wrong about that and it took me a few years to realize that. The first time I attended GRCC; I completed the first four weeks and then I dropped out. The second time I attended GRCC; I had to get off suspension and then I completed about two months, until I dropped out again. After that, I took a year off from school. When a year had passed I tried to return but I was on suspension once again. This time I was suspended from school and financial aid. By that time, I realized that I had dug a hole after my first fall out and it just got bigger. This hole had gotten so big, that I saw no point in attending GRCC anymore. I tried out the University of Phoenix and completed the first quarter with an A and B. I decided I didn’t like the online experience. Less than a month after, I signed up for ITT Tech. I...

...Summarizing a Video and Citing Sources GS 1145 Strategies for the Technical Professional October 13, 2014 The narrator Steven Johnson in the video “Where Good Ideas Come From” identifies several relevant situations (patterns) that he believes led to unusual levels of innovation or creativity. The introduction defines that Johnson looked for a shared/signature behavior or recurring patterns of innovations from the history of first cities to the biodiversity of coral reefs and rainforests. He said that these environments involved unusual levels of innovation. Through Johnson’s research and his quest for where good ideas are formulated, he mentioned certain moments of inspirations such as: a flash of insight, stroke of insight, epiphany, eureka, and lightbulb moments. However, he said that these moments share the basic assumption that an idea is a single thing. From here Johnson goes on to share situations (patterns) where he thinks good ideas are fostered: The Liquid Network: Johnson discussed that in early historical times that at a political dinner in a tavern provided a space or environment where a lot of ideas happened and it’s similar to coffeehouses of today. He also mentioned that the first coffeehouse in Oxford, England played a role in British culture for providing a space for not only consuming coffee but also a multi-space were people with different disciplines and backgrounds met to discuss anything from science to politics. Another example he used with regards...

Throughout my life there are things that I know I do well and things I know I am absolutely horrible in doing. This assessment confirms what I already know about myself. My lowest scores are my intelligence factors or skills that I absolutely dislike. Math and logical thinking has never been a strong skill for me. I have always struggled and have always had to get help in doing math. I have never been into nature. It does nothing for me. I don’t like animals and I don’t really like being outdoors. From an early age, I have never felt music which was very odd considering everyone in my family absolutely loves music. I have never been able to remember words to songs or feel the beat of music. It has always been just background noise to me. So all in all the assessment definitely highlighted my worst intelligences. My highest scoring assessments were in the areas of linguistic, interpersonal, and intra-personal. These are definitely some of my strongest skills. I have always been very good with language, words, and reading. I have always been an avid reader even as a young child. I can remember my teachers telling me to stop reading and go play with...

...Am I ready? Lamont Chivis ITT Technical Institute GS 1145 Strategies Mr. Demeter November 19, 2014 Being prepared for the career that you have trained and studied for so vigorously is not an easy task. You must have the greatest determination and concentration to set yourself up for accomplishing this task. I feel that I am not completely prepared at this time but I am most confident that by the time that I finish with my education I will have both the knowledge and the skill set for my dream career. The first thing that I needed to prepare myself for this change in my life was to first return to school to gain the education that I need to the tasks required for my career. This comes from the school I have chosen to give me these skills which is ITT Technical Institute. I strongly believe that this institute will provide me with the skills I will need like networking and system analysis. They will also provide me with business savvy skills to help me obtain the job in a professional way so I look like I have a sound head on my shoulders. It will be a long journey to make it to the end of this road but as long as I have strong support from my family, mainly my wife, I should be able to get by just fine. Having my wife in my corner is sometimes the main reason I keep putting up a fight in order to complete this task I have been trying to finish for most of adult life. She gives me the type of motivation and inspiration that anyone would need in times that require a...

...Mobile Technology and the Future GS 1145 ITT Technical Institute From the very first portable phone weighing more than 2 pounds and took 10 hours to charge for only a 35 minute conversation to today’s sleek, tiny and unbelievably expensive handheld devices weighing at a minimum of 35 grams, such as the BMW Key Fob Phone, It’s safe to say for the past 41 years cellular devices have changed the way the world communicates. Kirstin Fawcett would concur; author of the Smithsonian article “The Future Is Here: What’s Next for Mobile Phones?” This Young author reports on new research, collections, exhibitions and other things happening around the Smithsonian Institute and has provided information on a subject I am fascinated about and decided to do my research on. Mobile technology and the future is something even elementary school children dream about. This article explains how inexorable smart phones really are in our existence and how they shape our modern lives. 2013 studies show, “5 billion people currently own a mobile cellular phone and 1.1 billion of these are smart phones.” (Gardiner, 2013). The need for mobile intelligence will someday grow to be what you see in science fictional films. “In such a future, one has to ask where one’s self ends and begins,” (Bell, 2014), as the anthropologist staff notes, will be such questions asked as intelligent operating systems begin to surpass human intelligence. On a better outlook, with such sophisticated technology owners...

Decision analytical modelling can be used as a basis for economic evaluations in these situations. Stavros Petrou professor of health economics 1, Alastair Gray professor of health economics 2 1 Clinical Trials Unit, Warwick Medical School, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, UK; 2Health Economics Research Centre, Department of Public Health, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK Economic evaluations are increasingly conducted alongside randomised controlled trials, providing researchers with individual patient data to estimate cost effectiveness.1 However, randomised trials do not always provide a sufficient basis for economic evaluations used to inform regulatory and reimbursement decisions. For example, a single trial might not compare all the available options, provide evidence on all relevant inputs, or be conducted over a long enough time to capture differences in economic outcomes (or even measure those outcomes).2 In addition, reliance on a single trial may mean ignoring evidence from other trials, meta-analyses, and observational studies. Under these circumstances, decision analytical modelling provides an alternative framework for economic evaluation. Decision analytical...
