For the Cable Technician the computer I chose for that profession would be the Panasonic Toughbook 53. This computer is tough enough to be put in the field. With having to take it into customer’s homes if it were to be dropped it could withstand the impact. With the size of hard drive, RAM, and speed it could run programs to access customer info and company records. For the Accountant I chose the Acer Aspire TC Series. With RAM, and speed of this computer an accountant could run programs to calculate figures for his or her clients. The hard drive is sufficient to be able to store a lot of spreadsheets and graphs. For the Graphic Designer I chose the Asus G20AJ-B09. With the amount of information, size of programs, and the data used for this profession this computer...

...CSE 6421 Research Assignment Explain how each architecture handles instruction fetch. ALPHA 21264: The instruction fetch is the stage 0 in Alpha 21264 instruction pipeline. It can fetch four instructions each cycle. It includes a branch predictor, two Mux for decode and validity check, a line/set prediction and an instruction cache. The branch prediction and the line/set prediction are used to increase fetch efficiency. The line and set prediction, associated with each instruction block, guides the professor to find the next instruction to fetch. The instruction cache is 64-Kbytes and two-way. Compared with Alpha 21164(8-Kbytes and direct-mapped), the hit rates increase significantly. Itanium 2: The instructions are fetched by the front-end structures. The instruction pointer is chosen from next linear IP, branch prediction resteer pointers or branch misprediction and instruction exception steer pointers by the front end and then presents to the instruction cache and translation look-aside buffer. The processor then uses prevalidated tags to decide to deliver instructions to which caches. In prevalidated tags design, the cache tags store the virtual address and compare with the identifier entry to find match line. It is faster to find out the cache hit address. MIPS R10000: The R10000 processor fetches...

...Give two differences between EEPROM and Flash memory. EEPROM is a read only memory, which can re erased and reprogrammed. Flash memory is a memory that holds data even when the power is not on. 2. Indicate the use of each memory in the microcontroller. In other words, state which one is used for code, program variables, and variables that must remain when the power is turned off. • Code is stored in flash ( non-volatile memory, where the code will be saved even when there is no power) • Program variables are stored in registers and RAM ( volatile memory, where the contents are lost once the power is turned off) • Variables that have to remain once the power is turned off is stored in EEPROM ( non- volatile memory, where data will be saved even when the power is turned off) 3. State the number of address and data pins for 32Kx8 SRAM. 2^n=32000 2^15=32768, where there will be 15 address line Address line => 0000000000000000 to 111110100000000 Since the date is 8 bit in size, the data lines would be 8 (D0-D7) 4. State the number of address and data pins for 8Kx8 SRAM memory. The given SRAM has 8000 memory locations, so we will need 13 address lines.

...it Unit 2 Research Paper 1: Experiment Tanya Hernandez GS1140 Mr. Sanchez 10/01/2015 ITT Technical Institute Unit 2 Research Paper 1: Experiment My sister Jourdan has hired her father-in-law Andy, to remodel her back yard for her new home. The previous owners landscaped part of the backyard, but she would like help in landscaping the rest of it. Andy has the potential to be a great landscaper, but isn’t very good at math and will need Jourdan’s help before he can get started. Jourdan’s yard is 200 feet long, and its width is 75% of its length. The portion of her yard that does not need to be landscaped is along the shortest part of the yard and is 10% of the width of that part of the yard. Jourdan would like to put in grass, but does not want it to take up more than 1/25 of the space in her yard (space is in ft2). What is the largest area the grass can take up? If Jourdan’s grass takes up that much space and each grass piece 4ft wide, how long are they? Jourdan would like to add some brick to her patio. If each of those bricks is 6 inches long 3 inches wide. She only needs to cover 15 square feet, how many bricks does she need? We have discovered that the length of her yard is 150 feet. She will not need to landscape 15 square feet. 120 square feet of yard space will be covered in grass. Each piece of that grass is 30 feet in length. The last part of her landscaping will include laying down some brick and we found out that she will need 10 bricks...

When it comes to video game developers, they need computers with lots of space and lots of power along with a high end video card. They will most likely have ordered a custom built computer with terabytes of space and the newest high end processor. CAD operators also need lots of space and power for the work they do. A computer with a terabyte of space and a high end processor along with six to eight gigabytes of RAM should be fine. References Newegg.com. Retrieved January...

...Eboni Clark Unit 2 Individual Project Metaphysics is defined as the study of the true nature of reality. When it comes to considering what is real when referring to metaphysics time has to be one of the biggest factors. This is including everything that we have already experienced, our emotions and ideas, all the way down to our dreams and hallucinations is what we consider to be reality. The physical world and the spiritual world are just as real as one is to the other. For one, they both are considers worlds but are just defined as two different types of world. I do believe that there is such thing as souls and souls surviving with and even without a human body. Life is predetermined already by faith from the time the person is conceived. Little do we realize it but everything is known by prior experiences. The basic knowledge is experience. Everything we know now is here and being taught because someone in the past had to go through the experiences and learn from it and then from there taught what they had learned. The lessons have simply just been passed down over the years. I do believe that with knowledge there is universal truth to it. The relationship between faith and reason go hand and hand. With those two things a person can truly find out the truth. Artificial intelligence can actually teach people a lot about knowledge from what they do know to what they don’t know. The...

...Antonio Wilson Unit 2 Assignment MT140: Introduction to Management Kaplan University In this paper and assignment the four contemporary approaches to management will be explained. And the definition of open systems and the outline of internal, competitive, and macro environments of an organization. The contemporary approaches to management are sociotechnical system theory, quantitative management, organizational behavior, and systems theory. Sociotechnical system theory is a theory of management that believes technology merely constrains human action instead of rigidly determining behavioral outcomes. This can build good human relations into the technology workflow. Quantitative management relies on solely technology. The quantitative management approach involves the use of math modeling to find the right solutions to problems. Applied to workplace challenges, going from making decisions during product development to fix employee conflicts. Organizational behavior is like sociotechnical system theory when the focus is on people rather than technology. Organizational behavior is the study and knowledge of how people act in organizations. The goal is to build better relationships by achieving human objectives, organizational objectives, and social objectives. Similar the system theory does not look at individuals but the flow of business as a whole. It focuses on subdivisions within the organization and how it ties in with the big picture, the business.

...Todd Unit 2 Sc300 I believe there is a common reason for the absences, this being that the two schools were together two times for band camp. Schools Jackson and Truman both have a band camp and according to the attendance data the two schools showed a spike of absent students on May 20 and the 21st. The students were together on the 15th for planning for the battle of the bands and then again on the 19th for the actual battle. After reviewing the interviews conducted by the heath worker it was brought to my attention that majority of the students were suffering from stomach related illnesses on the 20th and the 21st. The health worker also stated in one of the interviews that it generally takes 3-5 days for symptoms to show up after being exposed to the flu. Also that symptoms of food poisioning usually appears in the next day or two days after eating the contaminated food. So my questions would be: What did the students eat? Where did they eat together? What date did they attend the restaurant? What is the source of the stomach related illness? I would visit the various restaurants in question and take food samples. Also I would have the students examined by a doctor. I would also investigate the activities that took place (eating) during the planning and the battle of the bands. And lastly survey other people (not students) who ate at the restaurants in question to see whether they also became ill. As to the...

...Unit 3: Health, safety and security in health and social care. This assignment will look at incidents and emergencies that can happen in a health and social care setting. Within my assignment I will be explaining possible priorities and responses when dealing with two incidents or emergencies in a health and social care setting. I will be discussing health, safety or security concerns that may arise from the incident or emergency. Then I will be discussing how I would respond to them. An emergency is defined as “a serious, unexpected, and often dangerous situation requiring immediate action.” (Oxford University). An incident is defined as “a relatively insignificant event that might have serious consequences.” (Collins, 2014). Case study 2 Anna is 56 year old woman who lives in a residential care home because she developed early-onset Alzheimer’s a few years ago and her daughter can no longer care for her at home, as her arthritis has also become more severe and she struggles to do basic things by herself now as it can become very painful for her to move at all at a moment’s notice. I am a carer who works at the residential care home that she lives in. A fault with the electrics causes a fire to start in the downstairs of the home. I am upstairs with Anna helping her get changed as she spilt her drink on herself, when we were alerted to the fire. By the time we were alerted to the fire it had already spread throughout the entire downstairs of the home so it...
