...Web Architecture WEB3750 2011 SLA For Telecommunications Explanation of agreements Derek Helms Telecommunications is one aspect of needing a SLA. First off we need to understand what a SLA is. SLA is a Service Level Agreement. This is a contract between a service provider and a customer. When we say service provider most people think of internet or phone or cable, things of that nature. This is true they are service providers, they are parties outside a company that provide a service to the company or customer. The services provided may include dedicated leased lines, shared packet-oriented services, Web hosting services, off-site application management (i.e., ASPs), and off-site network management (i.e., MSPs). Also in the contract can be certain main points like The minimum bandwidth that will be provided The amount of burst bandwidth that the customer can use over the minimum and the charge that will be applied to that bandwidth. The amount of time the service provider guarantees the service will be up and running, usually a percentage such as 99.95 percent of the time (which translates to approximately 5 minutes per day off-time). If there is a mailbox that can be used then the percentage of time mailbox stores are mounted. Penalties for not meeting service requirements and equipment setup, on-site service assistance, and help desk support. (Spirovski, 2010) Also in the agreement the client agrees to accept specified exceptions to the general terms of the agreement...

...The Broadway Café Huey Dunomes Strayer University Information Systems for Decision Making CIS 500 The wireless technologies that underlie m-commerce may raise privacy issues. These include the increased ability to collect individualized and personal information, the ability to track visits to wireless websites, and the ability to collect locational information about consumers (ACCC, 2009). The café could benefit from collecting and tracking response rates of m-coupons seeing that it generates analysis information about the customer and the business. Analysis information that could be gathered would consist of cluster analysis, association detection, and statistical analysis (Baltzan & Phillips, 2009). The first analysis that is considered helpful is cluster analysis. A cluster analysis is a technique used to divide information set into mutually exclusive groups such that the members of each group are as close together as possible to one another and the different groups are as far apart as possible. Cluster analysis is used to segment customer information…to help identify customers with similar behavioral traits, such as clusters of best customer or one-time customers (Baltzan & Phillips, 2009). Custer analysis would be beneficial for m-coupons since it would market to regular customer’s items that they normally buy and one-time customer specials of the day. Second is association detection. Association detection reveals the degree to which variables are...

...History of Japan & Understanding the Communication System. Culture is “more often a source of conflict than of synergy. Cultural differences are a nuisance at best and often a disaster” (ITIM International, 2003). Communication across culture is not an easy assignment for an international manager to learn within a short period of time especially it is an ongoing learning process. Communication is “a process of shared meaning by transmitting messages through media such as word, behavior, or material artifacts” (Deresky, 2008). Language discrepancies are an obvious factor. Likewise important are people skill as well as understanding and adapting to the social and working etiquette’s of the foreign country. Japan is one of the most well known for its culture in the world. For an international manager to work there, it is important they will have to understand and identify the Japanese communication system because Japanese communication is ambiguous. This is to eliminate any communication noise. Past history is believed to shape the culture of the country and the people identity. Japan has evolved in many era from the early Jōmon period till to the current Heisei period, their culture had also evolved. However the “most important principle will be the wa, the peace and harmony” (Deresky, 2008). Japanese tend to work as a family unit similar to working in the organization. One clear example is the rice cultivating “which they highly need cooperation from their village and...

Storing data using a web-based content management system offers a limitless amount of off-site storage, allowing companies to save larger amounts of data longer. The United States government currently has the unwarranted authority to read emails or access cloud-based data that has been stored for six months or more. Both positive and negative aspects are realized with this controversy. On a positive perspective, many feel the government accessing the data could be beneficial. Probing may help the government prevent terrorism in the United States. It may also provide the information needed to better forecast the country’s economic future. A disparaging concern is that companies feel the government is violating privacy rights. In addition, possible data leaks may result in a company’s loss of product or services. Ultimately, it must be decided whether the...
