...Using the Association of Information Technology Professionals to support my education and beyond November 29, 2010 Using the Association of Information Technology Professionals to support my education and beyond Pursuing an education with the goal of achieving more rewarding employment opportunities can seem daunting, especially when the avenues after achieving the degree can be vast without a map to help guide someone along the industry waters. Professional organizations routinely establish chapters for certain fields that guide individuals to greater opportunities. In the information technology field, the Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP) operates to assist students or employed professionals who want to continue, enhance and expand their knowledge. For my part, I plan to join and use the AITP to facilitate and maintain my success in the information technology (IT) industry. The AITP emerged in 1996 as a direct evolution from the Data Processing Management Association (DPMA). The DPMA had operated since 1962 and had focused primarily on the continued education of information processing techniques with the increase of computers in professions worldwide. The DPMA also continually strove to recognize the contributions of professionals in the IT industry. In 1996, the DPMA changed their name to The Association of Information Technology Professionals to align with the adopted terminology that was emerging from the field but also to expand evolve...

...Improving Byzantine Fault Tolerance Using Concurrent Information by FNGenius Abstract Many futurists would agree that, had it not been for the deployment of the lookaside buffer, the understanding of Scheme might never have occurred. In this position paper, we verify the study of the Turing machine. WABBLE, our new solution for extensible epistemologies, is the solution to all of these obstacles. Table of Contents 1) Introduction 2) Related Work 3) Design 4) Implementation 5) Performance Results 5.1) Hardware and Software Configuration 5.2) Experiments and Results 6) Conclusion 1 Introduction Many computational biologists would agree that, had it not been for stable theory, the exploration of symmetric encryption might never have occurred. Given the current status of signed symmetries, systems engineers daringly desire the analysis of gigabit switches, which embodies the significant principles of networking. Further, compellingly enough, indeed, compilers and reinforcement learning have a long history of agreeing in this manner. Contrarily, suffix trees alone can fulfill the need for the producer-consumer problem. Cyberneticists largely study telephony in the place of the deployment of architecture. The usual methods for the visualization of virtual machines do not apply in this area. Nevertheless, this solution is continuously well-received. This is a direct result of the analysis of compilers. Thusly, we see no reason not to use the partition...

...Quantitative Association Rule Mining Using Information-Theoretic Approach Mary Minge University of Computer Studies, Lashio dimennyaung@gmail.com Abstract Quantitative Association Rule (QAR) mining has been recognized an influential research problem due to the popularity of quantitative databases and the usefulness of association rules in real life. Unlike Boolean Association Rules (BARs), which only consider boolean attributes, QARs consist of quantitative attributes which contain much richer information than the boolean attributes. To develop a data mining system for huge database composed of numerical and categorical attributes, there exists necessary process to decide valid quantization of the numerical attributes. One of the main problems is to obtain interesting rules from continuous numeric attributes. In this paper, the Mutual Information between the attributes in a quantitative database is described and normalization on the Mutual Information to make it applicable in the context of QAR mining is devised. It deals with the problem of discretizing continuous data in order to discover a number of high confident association rules, which cover a high percentage of examples in the data set. Then a Mutual Information graph (MI graph), whose edges are attribute pairs that have normalized Mutual Information no less than a predefined information threshold is constructed. The cliques in the MI graph represent a majority of the frequent itemsets. Keywords: Quantitative...

...Unit 3 Assessment: Using HR Information Part 1 In a synopsis of no more than 500 words explain: • Why an organization needs to collect and record HR data. You should give at least two reasons. (AC1.1) • Legal requirements relating to the recording, storage and accessibility of HR data. (AC2.2) Previously, organizations tend to depend on the cultural cliché that Human Resources is merely a department or subdivision. Although it does acknowledge that it deals with people; this dealing tends to be difficult. During these times, this is no longer the attitude. Most companies have established HR solutions and systems that help in meeting the organizational goals and aide in making informed decisions. First of all, part of the whole HR plan is being able to identify the ultimate goal of the organization. From the perspective of Human Resources, the most essential factor to be considered in this regard is the organization’s work force; hence, the collection and recording of employee personal data, leaves and absences, salary information and the likes. HR data collection is imperative to be able to establish a point of reference for the company to be able to measure against it (i.e. employee salary details, salary bell curve he falls in to assess salary review and increments); monitor progress and development (history of performance appraisals and assessment; SMART objectives to be able to consistently conduct accurate performance review periodically); develop...

...to be bothered to read an article anymore shows how the world is progressing. Now on to a more pressing matter in today’s times; the usefulness of technology in a crisis situation. I feel as though people are beginning to rely more and more on technology for things each day. I wonder if people are truly aware of all that technology has to offer. For the longest time I always looked at technology as a rather unnecessary addition to someone’s household. I always figured that you could get the same information from reading the newspaper or watching the news, when in all reality, there is no quicker more efficient way to get information that technology and the internet. It’s amazing the amount of information that can be stored on technology and the fact that things can be linked. It is now easier for doctors to access one’s records because there is a doctor portal that has it all documented on that if they have permission each doctor can access and get the most up to date information about their patient. I know many people feel that nothing will be better than good old fashion pen and paper. Pen and paper is great at certain times but it can also cause some issues. Have you ever tried reading someones handwriting and you were unable to decipher what is said? I’m sure you’re all thinking of course that has happened. Now try and remember the last time that you couldn’t read something that was typed up on a computer, or a phone, or even a tablet? It’s highly unlikely that you’ve...

...company information? To make a research we can collect different kind of sources, based on primary and secondary data. The difference between them is that the primary sources are often original data collected through "instruments" such as surveys, interviews, questionnaires, "focus groups," etc. Secondary sources on the other hand, provide an overview of existing published knowledge on a specific topic, they are very useful in providing contextual backgrounds. Secondary sources can be articles in newspapers or popular magazines, books or academic journals. In fact there are different type of secondary sources: academic, professional, industry and company information. Academic: is very useful to add authoritativeness to a research because it is a source which has passed through “peer review” process, this means that the source has been read by experts prior the approval for the publication. Academic Journals, textbooks, and research papers are all example of academic information. Professional Bodies: are organisations formed by professionals in a specific field. Besides providing support for professional development, they also publish professional journals and therefore provide a variety of information on best practice and guidelines. CIPD for example, is a professional body that publish different kind of research and makes available to its members information such as reports or surveys. The difference with the other sources is that to get the information you have...

...Case Study: Getting and Using Compensation Information Week Four Case Study Assignment Case Study: Getting and Using Compensation Information Which jobs are paid more or less? Is this what you would have expected? Why of why not? What factors could explain the differences in the salaries? I selected the job title of an Engineer and depending on the career level and the amount of experience, education and added responsibilities of the position the job offered a higher salary. The entry-level job positions in engineering works under close supervision and reports directly to a supervisor or manager position. As the career levels increase the Engineers start relying more and more on their own judgment to plan and accomplish their goals. With increased years of experience in the field, the Engineers start performing a variety of more complicated tasks and are mentoring and coaching others that are less experienced. Some of the other job positions that I performed searches on were found to be relatively less in terms of compensation than the Engineering positions, some of the contributing factors were that these jobs were classified in more of a support role than professional and required far less education. According to the website, salaries of jobs depend on the complexity of the job, skills required, and the education and experience required to perform the job tasks. The single most important factor influencing an employee’s rate of pay is the kind of...

...Recording, analysing and using HR information. Amanda Dingli Student number: 284483 Unit number 3RAI Recording, analysing and using HR information Lecturer - Amanda Williams 2nd February 2015 Activity 1. The aim of this briefing note is to review the organisation’s approach to collecting, storing and using HR data. Two reasons why Outlook Expeditions needs to collect HR data are: * To ensure compliance with legal requirements by keeping employees personal and employment details recorded and kept up to date and stored for a specified number of years. * To ensure that decisions relating to redundancies, training and recruitment of staff can be made based upon the information that is held on file. Two types of data that are collected within Outlook Expeditions are: * Information relating to absences which helps managers to monitor the number and type of absences each employee takes using the Bradford Factor guidelines and implements any action that is necessary. * Employment details, contract terms, pay and hours. This ensures that all employees have the minimum legal requirements in line with the National Minimum Wage Act 1998. Two methods of storing information are: Electronic files Each employee has an individual electronic file which is saved on a network drive and backed up each evening. The backup is essential as it reduces the potential for permanent loss of data files. The benefit of storing the data this way is that there is instant access...

...Discuss the Advantages & Perils of using information from the internet The Internet (or World Wide Web) can be known as a kind of global meeting place where people from all parts of the world can come together. The internet service is available through your internet friendly device, i.e. computer, laptop, tablet or mobile phone, where just about everything under the sun is now at the fingertips of anyone who has access. Information in abundance! Of course with anything there are advantages & disadvantages on information usage. Advantages: 1. Access - The internet is a virtual treasure trove of information, any kind of information on any topic is available. The powerful search engines available on the internet can help you to find data on any subject that you need. 2. Convenience – because of the nature of accessing the internet you can have the information or means to acquire the information quickly, and just about anywhere. For example, in a meeting, at a bus stop (for a timetable), in your own home, etc. If you want to read a book these days you can download it rather than trekking down to the library or book store. 3. Cost effective – It can be cheaper to say read your downloaded book, catch a bus or drive to the local shops to buy a paper to read the news, pay for bank statements when you can now download them for free, free mail via email (no more postage stamps). 4. Nature – the information can target specific levels of study or business. Everything...

...I. Bibliographic Entry Gross, Grant. “FCC to claim some broadband regulatory power” Computerworld. 5 May 2010. II. Summary of Article The U.S. Federal Communications Commission is trying to partially reclassify all broadband as a common carrier service; they are trying to add this to the net neutrality rules in their new national broadband plan. Right now broadband is classified as a largely unregulated information service. They are trying to change this to make broadband more easily regulated under Title II of the Communications Act. FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is going to make the announcement Thursday of the decision last month by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit where it was ruled that the FCC does not have the authority to try and impose net neutrality principles on Comcast Cable Company. Experts are saying that because of this ruling it is questionable whether or not the FCC will be able to enforce the new broadband plans that they have created. Genachowski is saying that the FCC does not necessarily want there to be heavy regulations under Title II but instead they wish to find a happy medium between the lax regulations now and those that would be perceived as too harsh. The chairman went on to say that the FCC was looking to assert jurisdiction over, "only the small handful of provisions that, prior to the Comcast decision, were widely believed to be within the Commission's purview," while creating, "meaningful boundaries...

...Visualizing Interrupts Using Self-Learning Information Jaqueline Bornay and Andrew F. Acher Abstract the other hand, this method is entirely satisfactory. Thus, we see no reason not to use pseudorandom archetypes to visualize the locationidentity split. This work presents two advances above related work. For starters, we better understand how symmetric encryption can be applied to the investigation of access points. Continuing with this rationale, we validate that the much-touted certifiable algorithm for the improvement of expert systems by Richard Hamming [9] is Turing complete. The roadmap of the paper is as follows. We motivate the need for Smalltalk. Similarly, we place our work in context with the previous work in this area. We place our work in context with the existing work in this area. Finally, we conclude. The implications of empathic configurations have been far-reaching and pervasive. In fact, few analysts would disagree with the study of Scheme. Our focus in this work is not on whether neural networks and IPv7 are often incompatible, but rather on exploring a novel heuristic for the deployment of thin clients (Caffila). 1 Introduction Futurists agree that mobile methodologies are an interesting new topic in the field of complexity theory, and security experts concur. The lack of influence on cyberinformatics of this discussion has been well-received. The notion that hackers worldwide interfere with IPv6 is largely considered confirmed...

...Compare and contrast the toolkit used by hunter-gatherers with that used by farmers. Throughout the ages, there have been tools used and created by man to simplify life as a hunter-gatherer. The earliest tool kits found from the 120,000-35,000 B.C.E. are great examples of simple tools made out of stones. Rough pieces of the stone chipped away to create somewhat of a point on the tip of the rock that could later be used as weaponry such as on a spear or as an everyday tool used for cutting. Through progression of practice and time tools became more evolved. Shapes became more defined and new tools developed. Different materials were used such as bone from animals and natural fibers such as sticks that were used to makes harpoons for hunting and needles for clothes making. As hunting and gathering became insufficient due to growing populations humans began to settle down and domesticate their own crops and animals to feed themselves. Tools of the hunter-gatherer became more sophisticated as they settled into becoming farmers. Farmers used materials of stone, bone, antlers and natural fibers like the hunter-gatherers of the later years. They became more skilled at working the stones and materials polishing them into pieces of functional art. Tool use was not only for food but for other jobs such as clothes making and house building. The difference between hunter-gatherer’s and farmer’s tool kits are the details. The hunter-gatherers did not put as much emphasis on decorating...
