Speculate what technology might be able to do in 15 years to improve the contracting process.
Hypothesize whether contracting with the government will be easier or more difficult in the future. Provide a rationale for your answer.
The financial crisis of 2008 caused macroeconomists to rethink monetary and fiscal policies. Economists, financial experts, and government policy makers are victims of what former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan called a “once in a century credit tsunami”—in other words, nobody saw it coming.
Based on the analysis of the data, share your thoughts on what caused the financial crisis and whether the United States is going in the right or wrong direction with its current policies.
Focus specifically on the following:
Monetary policy
What monetary policies do you think caused the crisis?
What were the effects of the policies implemented in reaction to the crisis?
Do you think the solutions worked in the short term? In the long term?
Fiscal policies
What fiscal policies do you think caused the crisis?
What were the effects of the fiscal policies implemented in reaction to the crisis?
Do you think the solutions worked in the short term? In the long term?
Use the Internet, or other resources, to find an article that defines the learning organization. ( Article already included )
Prepare a 950-word Article Review that includes the following:
Summarize the article.
Summarize the author’s conclusion and/or recommendation.
Summarize your conclusion and/or recommendation.
Summarize how the concept in the article applies to your organization.
Using the code from the project chapter21\MicrosoftMonitorSample\MicrosoftMonitorSample.csproj, create a C# program that more realistically simulates the consumer/producer situation:
Add a synchronized method to the class Cell to check if the cellContents field reached the maximum capacity (interpretation – the warehouse is full)Invokethis method in the WriteToCell methodto stop producing new products and to wait until the cellContents field has been decremented by the consumerthread below this maximum capacity.
Add another synchronized method to the class Cell to check if the cellContents field reached the minimum capacity (interpretation – the warehouse is empty). Invokethis method in the ReadFromCell methodto stop consuming new products and to wait until the cellContents field has been incremented by the producer thread above the minimum capacity.
Add an int parameter to the WriteToCell method to represent the number of items manufactured by the producer (interpretation – the producer may produce more than one item) and adjust the loop in the ThreadProdRunmethod to call the WriteToCell method passinga different int parameter valueeach time (e.g. use random selection) in the range from the minimum cell capacity defined in the requirement 2 above to the maximum cell capacity defined in the requirement 1 above. Select the number of the loop’s iterations so that your testing produces meaningful results. Adjust the WriteToCell method so, that every time the method is called, the cellContents field is incremented by the int value (representing the number of items manufactured by the producer) passed as an argument to this method. Make sure that the maximum capacity is not exceeded.
Add an int parameter to the ReadFromCell method to represent the number of items consumed by the consumer (interpretation – the consumer may consume more than one item) and adjust the loop in the ThreadConsRun method to call the ReadFromCell method passinga different int parameter valueeach time (e.g. use random selection) in the range from the minimum cell capacity defined in the requirement 2 above to maximum cell capacity defined in the requirement 1 above. Select the number of the loop’s iterations so that your testing produces meaningful results. Adjust the ReadFromCell method so, that every time the method is called, the cellContents field is decremented by the int value (representing the number of items consumed by the consumer) passed as an argument to this method. Make sure that the cellContents field does not fall below minimum capacity.
Modify the Main() method to allow to start the consumer and producer threads in any order.
Test your code to make sure that the synchronization works and that both the consumer and producer threads don’t violate minimum/maximum capacity requirements irrespectively of the order these threads start.
Justify and include into the report the selection of the synchronization techniques for the methods created to satisfy requirements 1 – 4 above.
Critique the article in terms of how the information within the article supports or disproves Fire Safety.
Assignment 1: Stolen Credit Card
Lori received a credit card in the mail from a company that had taken her name and address from a white pages directory without her knowledge. Upset about the unauthorized use of her name, Lori planned to contact the company to lodge a complaint. Before she could do that, her roommate stole the card and charged thousands of dollars’ worth of merchandise to it without Lori’s knowledge.
The card issuer claimed that Lori was fully responsible for the purchases, while Lori claimed that she should have no liability whatsoever for the purchases.
Research government agencies that provide consumer credit protection or that regulate credit card companies, using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet. Based on the facts of the case and research, respond to the following questions:
If the card issuer sues Lori, who might the court rule in favor of and why?
Does the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) offer any protection to Lori?
What ethical issues are raised by the card issuer’s conduct?
What can you do to protect yourself from something like this happening to you?
