People can also use smart-phone as basic camera, video and music player which invisibly saved people’s money. In addition, the true value of smart-phones is more than these. There are two most popular operating system using in smart-phones which are Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android. Based on these two major operating system, customers could download and run thousands of applications on their smart-phones. Apple, for example, added software to its products as extra value to make profit from customers. “Users spent $10 billion last year in the App Store, with $1 billion coming in December alone.” (Brustein, J, 2014). Customers are willing to pay the applications on App Store; however, they have...

...the norm and suggests downgrading our smart phone to make them simply phones. In the video, he shows us a picture as an example of a bad result of multitasking while barbecuing; He did trying to cook, answering the phone, writing SMS, and uploading some pictures at the same time, and he burned everything. Additionally, he shows us some kinds of smart phone covers he designed in order to convey his idea of monotasking. He advocates doing only one thing at a time instead of focusing on several tasks simultaneously. This is because only two percent of people are super-taskers, and the others, most of us, will possibly make mistakes if they do not concentrate on one job. Therefore, Paolo wants us to find our monotask spot within the multitasking world. This is a useful talk, and I totally agree with him for some reasons. It is true that most people cannot deal with much information at one time and sometimes multitasking can cause dangerous situations due to our carelessness when we try to control a multitasking environment. There is a great example supporting this idea; driving and texting is illegal in many countries. Needless to say, texting while driving a vehicle, which is a common multitasking, is very dangerous because it causes over 3,000 deaths and 330,000 injuries per year according to the Harvard Center for Risk Analysis study. Even though multitasking has come to the forefront, I suggest people to turn the machines off for a time and have time to enjoy one...

...Having a cell phone in today’s society has become a regular part of life. Even I have a cell phone and I’m really not a big talker. What’s astonishing to me is kids seem to all have cell phones by the time they get into middle school. We rely on these communication devices for every aspect of our daily lives, whether for personal use or for work. To me we rely so heavily on the cell phone that it is becoming dangerous. Think to a time when you were driving down the road and came up on a slower vehicle. They were swerving within their lane, couldn’t keep a constant speed and just seemed like they were completely distracted and not paying attention to the road and the seemingly easy task of driving. You want to get by the person but every time an opportunity to do so came into view it would quickly disappear because the other driver would speed up or do something to avert your opportunity. Finally you get your chance and go around the person. You look over in an attempt to quench your curiosity and see the person is talking on their cell phone. It all makes sense now; they are paying more attention to the conversation they have going on than to their driving. Driving is a dangerous activity in itself, but when you add other distractions like talking and or texting on a cell phone, the outcomes can be anything but pleasant and lead to extensive consequences. Drivers are far more distracted while talking on a cell phone than just talking to a passenger in the car...

...Conditions Competitive Analysis Principles of Microeconomics / Eco 365 John Bayer May 12, 2014 In today’s society everything we do is pretty much wrapped up in evolving technology as it constantly changes with time. This paper will discuss how Apple’s I Phone affects the demand, supply, and the equilibrium prices within a market. The analysis of its competitors as well as potential buyers along with customer base will be discussed. The cell phone industry is one line of business that will forever stay busy. According to Gartner in 2013 Apple sold 150,785.9 trailing right behind Samsung with 299,794.9. Most individuals have done away with the use of home phone or in other terms land line phones and starting to use cell phones. This has a lot to do with technology advancing. Cell phones are now equipped to be able to do things that you were once only able to do on a computer. They are used more now for business purposes, social networking, gaming and paying bills online. Thirty years ago Apple introduced Macintosh with a promise to put the creative power of technology in everyone’s hands (Apple, 2014) needless to say they have firmly stood behind their word. Apple’s supply and demand is factored by a number of things. When manufacturers introduce items to their customers or target customers it’s based off the demand of the customer which determines the supply that is later produced. When you have a demand in a product like you do with the I Phone, you will see a shift...

...SWOT Viability Analysis SWOT Viability Analysis on News Corp Schmitt Management Consulting Abstract Buying the newspapers in Rupert Murdoch’s empire is not a viable action for profit today. With the on-going scandal and lawsuit claims, the reputation of the corporation has been damaged beyond repair and your takeover would be fruitless. The future potential regulatory restrictions and fines are unknown today and there-fore leave a large portion of the picture unclear. Being able to hire new staff reporters who have been unmarred by the current scandal will be difficult, and the current staff does need to be replaced to avoid any future problems these recent practices have brought about. The print media is rapidly being replaced by online avenues, so there are few opportunities for growth in the print media. Allowing Rupert Murdoch to accept his own consequences and outcomes of this highly publicized scandal is the best action for you and your future profits. SWOT Viability Analysis on News Corp This is a SWOT analysis on purchasing News Corp. After extensive research and analysis I am recommending that you do not purchase this conglomeration of newspapers. There are currently far too many unknowns in regard to the future outcomes for this to be a viable venture. Analysis This collection of opinions on strengths and weaknesses has been solely compiled from online research of articles posted on the internet. The articles are based on facts known to reporters...

...Information Management Analysis and Design – Assignment Name: Pratap badikinti 1. It has been said that a Smartphone is “a microcomputer in your hand.” Discuss the security implications of this statement. Most people are unaware that their cell phones are just as vulnerable to cyber attacks as their laptops or desktops. Today, Smartphones have become most popular target among hackers and malware producers. The most common threat to the security of our cell phones is simply for the device to fall into wrong hands. Data theft begins with lost or stolen phones in most cases. Thus, we have to be very careful and thoughtful as how we carry, where we place them while in public places for someone to easily grab or steal them. Due to increase in data theft through cell phones, Blackberry, iOS and Windows phones use a secure password feature to secure the data in our cell phones. And its our responsibility to use this feature and secure our passwords that they are not easily guessed or broken but are relatively complex. Similar to every computer or laptop, a strong password alone is not enough to protect our data/information, need an strong software to help us recover the lost or stolen data and to wipe it if one is unable to retrieve. In the same way our cell phones too need a line of software that will help to turn off the phone’s screen and disable it when the password input is incorrect, preventing an attacker from...

...Porter’s Five Forces Analysis To better understand what is exactly pressuring Kodak’s business, Michael Porter’s Five Forces analysis has been chosen. The impact of the different forces on the company is presented as follows: I. Rivalry among competitors - Numerous competitors active in all segments of the imaging industry (rolled films, traditional photography, digital photography, traditional printing, and digital printing). - Faster than expected consumer adoption of the new technology attracting new entrants. - Decrease in sales for traditional products forcing incumbents to quickly release new digital solutions. - Switching costs inexistent for consumers II. Threat of substitutes - The fast advent of digital technologies led to rapid switching and this new substitute is proving problematic to handle for Kodak. - Modern cell phones are now boasting high definition photography capabilities up to 16 megapixels (anselmobiasse.com)reducing the attractiveness of existing cameras. - High commoditization: digital image capturing devices are found in laptops, tablets, cell phones, televisions and cameras. This solution is hard to differentiate and thus consumers’ choices are driven by price. - Free, cloud-based solutions (picasa, photobucket, flickr, etc…) offered in the management of pictures undermine the attractiveness of branded, paid solutions offered by major players. III. Threat of new entrants - High entry barriers due to development costs, distribution costs...

...Mimi Garner Case Analysis 3 – Personal Navigation Devices (PNDs) NETW583 November 30, 2014 Case Analysis 3 – Personal Navigation Devices (PNDs) Personal navigation devices (PNDs) provide turn-by-turn directions, maps, geolocation, weather updates, and real-time traffic. They are one of the biggest consumer markets for global positioning devices (GPS) (WordPress, 2014). This case analysis will discuss why PNDs have become popular, the technologies required to facilitate their success, the leaders of PNDs, that factors that contribute to winning in the market place, their future, and how they apply to Technical Course Objectives (TCOs). Why Have Personal Navigation Devices Become Popular? What Technologies Are Required to Facilitate the Success of PNDs? One of the main reasons personal navigation devices became popular is because it has helped people out of unfamiliar places while driving. Drivers often get lost by making one wrong turn or thinking they have an idea of how to get to a destination. PNDs became popular because of it eliminated the use of using a road map while traveling. A PND can either be installed in the car or can be used portably. The advantages PNDs have through car installation are they are easy to use. Drivers are able to customize their preferences and download directions and specific maps. Another feature is that PNDs have big screens that a driver can glance at without taking their eyes off the road. Portable PNDs have been more popular...
