...A Summary of “Strategic alignment: Analysis of perspectives” by Tiago Reis de Almeida Preston Coleman and Raymon Papp’s paper hub on strategic alignment model. Furthermore, how it has been operationalized to enable assessment of an organization’s business and technology strategies into one of twelve defined alignment perspectives using a web-based model. The authors emphasise that the first concept of strategic alignment remains actual and usable to corporate executives looking to achieve alignment of their business and technology strategies. This model is presented as a combination between four quadrants, which one constituted by three components and it’s divided into two distinct areas: business and information technology (IT). Each area has two quadrants that define that part of the business. Focusing on the business area, the two quadrants are business strategy and organization infrastructure. Business strategy has three different components: business scope, distinctive competencies and business governance component. The first component links everything that might effect the business environment, such as markets, products, services). Distinctive competencies cover all items responsible to create market’s success, like brand, research, value chain. The last component is Business governance that relates to the existent relationships between stockholders and the directors board, governmental regulations and relations with other strategic partners. The other quadrant...

We started the project by identifying aims and goals such as understanding what database is.We calculated in detail and understood and researched on database understood database used by ORACLE. INTRODUCTION The definition of a database is a structured collection of records or data that is stored in a computer system. In order for a database to be truly functional, it must not only store large amounts of records well, but be accessed easily. In addition, new information and changes should also be fairly easy to input. In order to have a highly efficient database system, you need to incorporate a program that manages the queries and information stored on the system. This is usually referred to as DBMS or a Database Management System. Besides these features, all databases that are created should be built with high data integrity and the ability to recover data if hardware fails. (What is a Database?, 2010) AIM The aim of the study is many folded such as, understanding database, go in detail and understand and research on database, understand the technology used by ORACLE, derive conclusions on the development in the field of database. LIMITATIONS This study is descriptive in nature and the research is done on published secondary materials. Logical...

It will describe the model’s development and outline its core clinical components. The practice of therapy will be described as well as recent developments within the model. Some key criticisms will be raised, followed by a case example which highlights the therapeutic focus of Bowen’s approach. This is the author’s version of the work. It is posted here by permission of Australian Academic Press for personal use, not for redistribution. The definitive version was published in Australian and New Zealand Journal of Family Therapy (ANZJFT) Vol.20 No.2 1999 pp 94-103). Introduction Murray Bowen's family systems theory (shortened to 'Bowen theory' from 1974) was one of the first comprehensive theories of family systems functioning (Bowen, 1966, 1978, Kerr and Bowen, 1988). While it has received sporadic attention in Australia and New Zealand, it continues to be a central influence in the practice of family therapy in North America. It is possible that some local family therapists have been influenced by many of Bowen's ideas without the connection being articulated. For example, the writing of Guerin (1976, 1987), Carter and...

...Today Paper Chelsea Berry Foundations of the Criminal Justice System June 2, 2013 Gary Lair Many police departments are facing budget problems, forcing them to cut their police force down. Many officers are being asked to do things they normally don't do such as patrolling. Police departments are also facing increasing crimes due to the poor economy. More people are engaging in criminal activities. Local and small agencies interact with the communities that they patrol on a daily basis. Sharing information between agencies are important not only for Home Land Security but for the public’s safety as well. Law enforcement agencies are using The Home Land Security Information Network which allows them to securely collaborate with partners across the country. Law enforcement professionals also use HSIN to share information including Be on the Lookouts (BOLOs), Requests for Information (RFIs), For Your Information (FYIs), Intelligence Reports, and other Law Enforcement Sensitive documents. HSIN allows users to create and distribute messages to large, mission-specific contact lists. This rapid, secure information exchange provides law enforcement professionals with critical intelligence as they conduct work in the field ("Homeland Security Information Network - Law Enforcement Mission", n.d.). The purpose of this State and Local Fusion Center...

Oracle White Paper—Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud Brief Introduction Introduction For most enterprise IT organizations, years of innovation, expansion, and acquisition have resulted in sprawling infrastructure that stretches the limits of manageability. While the individual IT systems and applications in service are often well considered and expertly implemented, the sheer scale of the ongoing IT investment itself has emerged as the dominant concern. Even when best-of-breed technologies, open standards, market-leading vendors, and modern architectural practices like SOA have been employed pervasively, most enterprises now find themselves with too many platforms, too many technologies, too many domains of expertise, and too many vendors to coordinate and manage. In response, a number of technologies...

...Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Physics Procedia 20 (2011) 404–419 Space, Propulsion & Energy Sciences International Forum - 2011 Conventional physics can explain cold fusion excess heat S. R. Chubb* Infinite Energy Magazine, 9822 Pebble Weigh Ct, Burke, VA 22015-3378 Abstract In 1989, when Fleischmann, Pons and Hawkins (FP), claimed they had created room temperature, nuclear fusion in a solid, a firestorm of controversy erupted. Beginning in 1991, the Office of Naval Research began a decade-long study of the FP excess heat effect. This effort documented the fact that the excess heat that FP observed is the result of a form of nuclear fusion that can occur in solids at reduced temperature, dynamically, through a deuteron (d)+d 4He reaction, without high-energy particles or rays. A key reason this fact has not been accepted is the lack of a cogent argument, based on fundamental physical ideas, justifying it. In the paper, this question is re-examined, based on a generalization of conventional energy band theory that applies to finite, periodic solids, in which d’s are allowed to occupy wave-like, ion band states, similar to the kinds of states that electrons occupy in ordinary metals. Prior to being experimentally observed, the Ion Band State Theory (IBST) of cold fusion predicted a potential d+d 4He reaction, without high energy particles, would explain the excess heat, the 4He would be found in an unexpected place (outside heat-producing electrodes), and...

Paper prepared for presentation at the EAAE-AAEA Joint Seminar ‘Consumer Behavior in a Changing World: Food, Culture, Society” March 25 to 27, 2015 Naples, Italy Consumers and food waste – a review of research approaches and findings on point of purchase and in-household consumer behaviour Introduction Around a third of the world´s food is wasted at various steps of the supply chain (FAO, 2011). In Europe, the largest and increasing share is wasted at the consumer level (EPRS, 2014). The issue has gained considerable public attention in the past years, with a large number of initiatives developed by different stakeholders such as policy makers, retailers (e.g. France, Intermarché, 2014) and NGOs (e.g. Denmark, Stop spild af mad, 2014), and research projects that have and are exploring the issue (CONANX; FUSIONS). Furthermore, the European Parliament has called for 2014 to be the ‘year against food waste’ (EP, 2014). It is known that consumers avoid deformed food (Loebnitz & Grunert, 2014) and foods close to the best before date (Tsiros, 2005) in the choice situation, while consumer food safety concerns (Watson & Meah, 2013), storage facilities (Terpstra et al., 2005), family practices around meals and leftovers (Cappellini & Parsons, 2012) and planning capabilities (Stefan et al., 2013)...

...Criminal Justice System Lessons Learned Post 9/11 The purpose of this paper is to discuss the importance of interagency collaboration in the criminal justice system, the changes that were made and lessons learned following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. In the wake of the events that followed the 9/11 attacks many problems were revealed within the criminal justice system, especially those affecting the law enforcement community. One of those problems was the lack of interaction between the police departments and other local/state law enforcement with the federal law enforcement agencies. Local law enforcement agencies are the primary responders to any incident of crime or terror, therefore developing a better interagency collaboration in order to share information is essential in order to prevent future attacks. Prior to the 9/11 attacks many of the agencies believed in keeping information within their own realm due to protocols and security clearances. These criminal justice agencies each had pieces to a puzzle, but because these agencies never worked together, those pieces would never be put together to reveal the bigger picture. The 9/11 events revealed the lack of interaction and set about a positive change that would impact the way the criminal justice system approached their problem solving. One of those changes was the reorganization of the federal law enforcement agencies, including the creation of the Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation...

...Running head: EDUCATION PREPARATION PAPER Education Preparation Paper Dimple Patel Grand Canyon University: NRS 430v August 19, 2012 Education Preparation Paper Teaching someone how to drive a car for the first time can be challenging because the driver has no knowledge about the rules of the roads and laws, but as the driver learns the rules and practices, then they become a safer driver (Hill, 2010). Similarly are the different levels of nursing. The new driver can be compared to the associate degree nurse (ADN) and as knowledge is mastered, the nurse continues to a baccalaureate degree (BSN) and then to an advanced practice degree (APN). The progression of academic experience promotes higher levels of patient care (Spencer, 2008). The purpose of this paper is to use scholarly research to discuss the difference in competencies between nurses prepared at the ADN level verses the BSN level, using a patient care situation to describe differences in approach to nursing care. First we will define the difference in competencies between an ADN, BSN, and APN. Differences in Competencies Educational levels in nursing hold different competencies. All nurses must pass a state board exam, regardless of their educational level, to enter the profession. There are four levels of nursing which include the ADN, BSN, APN, and clinical nurse leader (CNL). Although the CNL will not be discussed, the ADN, BSN, and APN will...

...That same year, David Brailer was appointed as the national health information technology coordinator. In this new role David was to provide “leadership for the development and nationwide implementation of an interoperable HIT infrastructure, with the goal of establishing electronic health records for all Americans within 10 years” (A Brief History of Electronic Health Records, 2012). In 2006, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) defined their role in the initiative, and in 2009 continued to move forward with new -found support from President Obama. (A Brief History of Electronic Health Records, 2012) Within the healthcare are arena there was a business requirement for an EHR due to continual redundancies and mistakes on paper records. Mistakes within healthcare can have an obvious impact on patient care as we all as patient safety. The adoption and use of an EHR gives healthcare providers instant access to patient records in one, secure system. This information can be updated real time so providers have all the information needed when making decisions on patient care, lending to a more safe and positive experience for a patient. Prior to the adoption of the EHR, pertinent information for patient...

...Multimorbidity is a clinical condition which is defined as a state where three or more chronic illness conditions prevail in a patient either centrally or dependant upon one or more central condition (Fortin et al., 2007). This clinical condition is characterised by overlapping pathophysiology, synergetic disease intensity and intersection of individual illnesses management (Boyd et al., 2010). Few examples of the composing illnesses include coronary heart diseases, dyspepsia, migraines, sleep disturbances, bowel imbalance and Sarcopenia ( Fortin et al., 2007) Prevalence of multi morbidity varies across different parts of the world depending upon variance of population sample, age group of the society, advancement of health care monitoring systems and ethnic conditions. In developing countries like most of the Asian countries, rates of life expectancy are reported to increase due to advances is environmental and working conditions of the population. With the increase in life expectancy rates, the prevalence of coexistence of these diseases also steeply increases and is directly proportional (Akker et al., 1998). Further more, the prevalence of this clinical condition is more in developing countries when compared to that of developed countries due to increased percentage of vulnerable groups like young children, diseased and unattended patients and poor economical conditions (Valderas et al., 2009). The government of UK launched a initiative in collaboration with the NHS...

...allows the use of RISC-style execution cores, and use of various micro-architectural techniques that can be easily implemented in RISC cores. This can easily allow CISC processors to approach RISC performance. However, CISC ISAs do have the additional burden of translating instructions to micro-operations. In a 1991 study between VAX and MIPS, Bhandarkar and Clark showed that after canceling out the code size advantage of CISC and the CPI advantage of RISC, the MIPS processor had an average 2.7x advantage over the studied CISC processor (VAX). A 1997 study on Alpha 21064 and the Intel Pentium Pro still showed 5% to 200% advantage for RISC for various SPEC CPU95 programs. A decade later and after introduction of interesting techniques such as fusion of micro-operations in the x86, we set off to compare a recent RISC and a recent CISC processor, the IBM POWER5+ and the Intel Woodcrest. We find that the SPEC CPU2006 programs are divided between those showing an advantage on POWER5+ or Woodcrest, narrowing down the 2.7x advantage to nearly 1.0. Our study points to the fact that if aggressive micro-architectural techniques for ILP and high performance can be carefully applied, a CISC ISA can be implemented to yield similar performance as RISC processors. Another interesting observation is that approximately 40% of all work done on the...
