Before you commit anything to paper, you should find someone from the class, and run your idea by them. If you’re not able to convince them in a couple of minutes that it’s an interesting and important problem, then you might want to rethink things.We’re not going to ask you to solve this research problem as part of the class. This exercise is really just to get you some experience writing down the problem.Here’s a brief example of the sort of thing we have in mind. Suppose that I had surveyed localization techniques in mobile robots (correlating where the robot is on a map with what the sensors see). Then, the outline of the additional two pages could be:
A problem with all of the approaches described above is that the computational expense of ray-tracing in the map is high. For each laser measurement, we must walk along that beam in the map, determining where it intersects a wall so that we can calculate the expected measurement. [the problem]
If we can make this ray-tracing procedure more efficient, we can dramatically reduce the cost of localization. This will allow us to perform a localization calculation more frequently, or on robots with fewer computational resources. [motivation]
We hypothesize that many similar ray-traces are done, from similar locations on the map, over and over. Cacheing, or pre-computing, the results for these could potentially save a large amount of time. We will look into data structures that will allow us to store these results efficiently. In particular, we will look at data structures with a similar feel to the Hough transform, where we will parameterize the ray traces by angle and distance from the origin, and pre-calculate the […. more detail]
We will consider our approach to be successful if it saves time during the localization process. To do this, we will extract the ray-tracing implementation from the ROS localization package, and perform timing tests on a pre-recorded data set. We will then use our proposed technique on the same data set, and compare the times. To ensure that the two sets of results are comparable, we will also look a the differences (if any) in computed values [… more details]

The Monsters Body is a Cultural Body

Monsters give shape (or a body) to particular abstract cultural movements or ideas.
II: The Monster Always Escapes
The monster is not confined to one text or era, but is instead reimagined and re-envisioned for new
contexts, to be read against the context of that new era.
III: The Monster is a Harbinger of Category Change
The monster appears in a way that shows that traditional ways of thinking are breaking down
IV: The Monster Dwells at the Gates of Difference
The monster represents the other, or that which is different.
V: The Monster Polices the Borders of the Possible
The monster warns humanity (the audience) about when were going too far in terms of science,
geography, morality, and other disciplines.
VI: Fear of the Monster is Really a Kind of Desire
Monsters represent a temporary freedom from restraint; e.g. social, cultural, taboo, legal.
VII: The Monster Stands at the Threshold…of Becoming
Monsters reflect self-knowledge; they challenge human perceptions of the world, offering the possibility
that we are closer to the monstrous than we may wish to acknowledge.

2) A list of major characters

Many people never really try to take time to study the Bible because they believe it is much too hard. They leave such work to pastors and theologians. That is very unfortunate, since studying the Bible really is not a difficult task at all. Think about it, if the Bible is truly Gods way to reveal Himself to us, why would he make it so difficult?

Over the next couple of weeks we will be exploring some basic tools that you can use to engage your own journey of discovery in the Bible.This week we will focus on Observation. You can read a brief explanation by visiting the following site: http://www.walkwiththeword.org/Aids/HowTo/Inductive_2-Observation.html.We will use a small passage in John. If you have a Bible, find John 1:1-14. If you do not have Bible, you can look up the passage at http://www.blueletterbible.com. In a separate document, complete a basic observation of the passage. Your response should include:1. Ask the 5 Ws and an H. You may not be able to answer every question. That is okay, just do what you can.
2. There at least two key words used in this passage (though they really are synonymous with each other). Choose a term or two and record as many observations as you can. Do not try and go too deep with this assignment. Simply write down what you observe. Be sure to include pronouns associated with the term.Format Requirements

Home And The American Dream

Read: Gaylean Levittown: The Imperfect Rise of the American Suburbs, Reft Segregation in the City of Angels: A 1939 Map of Housing Inequality in L.A. Screen City Rising documentary found embedded in the Reft article. ASSIGNMENT–DB #6: Home and the American Dream Part One: Home ownership is often considered to be part of the American Dream. However, the ability to purchase this piece of the American Dream does not come without much strife and turmoil. Reft’s Segregation in the City of Angels: A 1939 Map of Housing Inequality in L.A., Gaylean’s Levittown: The Imperfect Rise of the American Suburbs, and the documentary City Rising all complicate the way that home ownership can be viewed as part of the American Dream – after all, what does it mean if you’re renting and not able to buy — do you then not have access to the American Dream? For discussion board, write about how all three have added to your thoughts on home ownership as being part of the American Dream. What did you learn from all three? How does the concept of the American Dream work within each of the three? Make sure to bring in quotations to support the response, response should be at least 400 words (include word count at the end.)

Governance and Ethics: How to apply ethical theories to the real world business

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has emerged as a major aspect of business practices that need to be addressed by companies in an effective way. In Apples 2017 Progress Report Supplier Responsibility, it states: Our suppliers employ millions of people around the world. The decisions we make can have a big impact on their lives and their communities. We have a great responsibility to protect the rights of all the people in our supply chain, and to do everything we can to preserve our planet’s fragile environment. Thats why we obsess over every detail of how we build our products. And its why we invest in education and training to provide opportunities and tools to help our suppliers employees today and in the future. However, it is not so long ago that Apple had its fair share of social responsibility issues, especially labor law related violations in supplier factories in China. Apple made headlines in late January 2015 when it reported the largest quarterly profit ever in corporate history: $18 billion. A record-breaking $74.6 billion quarterly revenue generated this profit, thanks in large part to the sale of 74.5 million iPhones during the same period. But for many hundreds of thousands of young Chinese working on Apple assembly lines, 2014 was not such a good year. Reports from China Labor Watch (CLW) and Students and Scholars Against Corporate Misbehavior (SACOM), and evidence gathered by researchers Jenny Chan, Mark Selden and Pun Ngai detail a string of labor law violations at several factories across China. It is that troubling that this evidence shows that many of the same problems reported to Apple in 2013 continued unabated through 2014. Conditions have in fact worsened at several sites. THIS ASSIGNMENT IS A CONTINUATION OF THE GOVERNANCE AND ETHICS FEASIBILITY STUDY I ORDERED. Project Plan: Establishing the problem and a plan how to solve it. Generally, project plan precedes major development and project implementation. And it evaluates the projects potential for success and is an unbiased approach to provide information upon which decisions can be based. It should comprise the following elements: INSTRUCTIONS: THIS IS WHAT I WANT IN THE ASSIGNMENT ?? ??PROJECT OVERVIEW: 25 marks. – The project proposal begins with an overview, which is the summary of the project. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM: 30 marks. – This section of the proposal begins discussing the problem that is being solved through the project. You can either use a real life ethical problem Apple is facing, or invent a problem relating to Apples push towards greater corporate social responsibility (see for example: https://images.apple.com/environment/pdf/Apple_Environmental_R esponsibility_Report_2016.pdf). – Use this section to also prove that this project is definitely needed and therefore should be done. – Outline the scope of the project. PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: 25 marks. – Create goals that are attainable and objectives that are measurable. – This should include a timeline and milestones throughout the life of the project. METHODOLOGY: 20 marks. – In this section you should include the methods and ways in conducting the research for the final coursework, and explain and justify the method you choose.

Based on these readings, and on your own experiences, you will develop your personal theory which you feel best explains adulthood.

As a part of this class you read about and analyze many theories of adult development. Your theory may be a combination of the theories we study (find subjects in attached document) described in your own words, or it may be an original theory. Your theory should be based on observational or empirical evidence, which is cited in explaining the theory. You should discuss how your theory explains at least three (3) areas (e.g. health, family, cognitive) of adult development. You will use an adult that you find in film or literature to illustrate your theory. (Make sure to look at attached document for rubrics and more detailed information about paper)
