According to Kirk (2016), The essence of “Formulating Your Brief” is to “identify the context in which your work will be undertaken and then define its aims: it is the who, what, where, when and how.” It could be formal or informal as any project you think you must make it. This phase is where you create a vision for your work. Checkout Chapter 3 “Formulating Your Brief” from the attachment. 

Answer Needed in APA 7 format with in-text citations and References with 500 + Words.

Question to Answer is:
Why is it so important to formulate your brief for a data presentation? Discuss some ways you would implement to formulate an effective brief. What are some advantages to your methods? What are some disadvantages?

(4Q’s, NO PLAGIARISM, by Saturday(10/10) 

1/4 –  A digital forensics professional must know basic IT skills, understand computer architecture and networking, and have analytical and investigative skills, as well as strong attention to detail. Why do think all of these skills are necessary? Please explain. (Min 250 words)

2/4 –  Law enforcement professionals and investigators use digital forensic methods to solve crimes every day. Locate one current news article that explains how investigators may have used these techniques to solve a crime. Explain the crime that was solved and the methods used to determine how the crime was committed. Some examples of crimes solved may include locating missing children, finding criminals who have fled the scene of a crime, or unsolved crimes from the past that have been solved due to the use of new techniques (such as DNA testing).

Your written assignment should be 3-4 paragraphs in your own words and should include a reference citation for your source of information. (Min 250 words)

3/4 – Essay on Packet Sniffing and Wireshark (Min 250 words)

4/4 –  In this module, you learned that random numbers (or, at least, pseudorandom numbers) are essential in cryptography, but it is extremely difficult even for powerful hardware and software to generate them. Go online and conduct research on random number generators. What are the different uses of these tools besides cryptography? How do they work? Explain your answer using your own words in 2-3 paragraphs. (Min 250 words)

At UC, it is a priority that students are provided with strong educational programs and courses that allow them to be servant-leaders in their disciplines and communities, linking research with practice and knowledge with ethical decision-making. This assignment is a written assignment where you will demonstrate how this course research has connected and put into practice within your own career.

Assignment:   
Provide a reflection of at least 500 words (or 2 pages double spaced) of how the knowledge, skills, or theories of this course have been applied, or could be applied, in a practical manner to your current work environment. If you are not currently working, share times when you have or could observe these theories and knowledge could be applied to an employment opportunity in your field of study. 

Requirements:   
Provide a 500 word (or 2 pages double spaced) minimum reflection.   
Use of proper APA formatting and citations. If supporting evidence from outside resources is used those must be properly cited.   
Share a personal connection that identifies specific knowledge and theories from this course.

Answer the following questions. Please ensure to use correct APA7 references and citations with any content brought into the assignment.  

1. For sparse data, discuss why considering only the presence of non-zero values might give a more accurate view of the objects than considering the actual magnitudes of values. When would such an approach not be desirable?
2. Describe the change in the time complexity of K-means as the number of clusters to be found increases.
3. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of treating clustering as an optimization problem. Among other factors, consider efficiency, non-determinism, and whether an optimization-based approach captures all types of clusterings that are of interest.
4. What is the time and space complexity of fuzzy c-means? Of SOM? How do these complexities compare to those of K-means?
5. Explain the difference between likelihood and probability.
6. Give an example of a set of clusters in which merging based on the closeness of clusters leads to a more natural set of clusters than merging based on the strength of connection (interconnectedness) of clusters.

Answer the four questions noted below.  Please use at least one reference and ensure it’s in APA format (as well as the in-text citation).  Also, ensure to NOT COPY DIRECTLY from any source (student or online source), rather rephrase the author’s work and use in-text citations were necessary.

Managerial Challenge

US Airways (American Airlines) owns a piece of land near the Pittsburgh International Airport. The land originally cost US Airways $375,000. The airline is considering building a new training center on this land. US Airways determined that the proposal to build the new training center is acceptable if the original cost of the land is used in the analysis, but the proposal does not meet the airline’s project acceptance criteria if the land cost is above $850,000. Assume the labor and raw materials total $1,720,000. A developer recently offered US Airways $2.5 million for the land. What is the economic profit, opportunity cost, and should US Airways (American Airlines) build the training center at this location? (Chapter 8 Economic Cost)
