Case Study

Due: Sunday, End of Module by 11:55 p.m. EST

Case Study 14.3 The Navy Scraps Development of Its Showpiece Warship—Until the Next Bad Idea, Page 500.

Questions:

1. The U.S. Department of Defense has a long history of sponsoring projects that have questionable usefulness. If you were assigned as a member of a project review team for a defense project, what criteria would you insist such a project has in order to be supported? In other words, what are the bare essentials needed to support such a project?
2. Why, in your opinion, is there such a long history of defense projects overshooting their budgets or failing some critical performance metrics? (Consider other project cases in this text, including the Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle discussed in Chapter 5.)
3. “The mystery is not that the Zumwalt was canceled. The mystery is why it took so long for it to be canceled.” Do you agree with this assessment? Why or why not?
4. Google “criticisms of the Littoral Combat Ship” and identify some of the problems that critics have listed. In light of these problems, why do you think the Navy has pressed ahead with the development of the LCS?

Writing Requirements

• 5-7 pages in length  (excluding cover page, abstract, and reference list)
• APA format, Use the APA template located in the Student Resource Center to complete the assignment.
• Please use the Case Study Guide as a reference point for writing your case study.

Need 250 to 300 words with references. No APA format required and the textbook is attached.

Now that you have explained and classified the threats and vulnerabilities, you will prioritize them using a reasonable approach as explained in the project plan. As you prioritize the identified threats and vulnerabilities, you will need to:

• include both internal and external sources of threats
• consider assessment of exposure to outages
• consider information resource valuation
• indicate which approach you are using and justify your choice

Use this information, along with the threat and vulnerability explanations and risk classifications from the previous steps, to develop the threats and vulnerabilities report.

Compose a two- to three-page report regarding specific threats and vulnerabilities of the technical aspects of the environment. This report will be used in the final vulnerability and threat assessment report.

 As an IT analyst for Dominion Online a company providing voting solutions to a global client base, you are working to convince the organization to move its infrastructure to a public cloud. With the growth the company is experiencing, and the internal data centers maxed out, you want to get the executives on board with moving to a public cloud rather than trying to expand the current infrastructure.Use the information below from Dominion IT Budget and infrastructure summary to answer the following questions1: Compare the cost of on-premises and cloud options for over five years using AWS OR AZURE free calculator to determine savings and how you arrive at them.2. Use graphical representation of your results to compare the cost of on-premises and cloud options.3. Analyze the economic implications and show savings and how you arrive at them. Each year, the executive leadership team of Dominion Online establishes an IT budget for the organization, which is based on revenue projections. Consider that Dominion Online’s current year revenue is about $100.8 million, and the IT budget is 10 percent of that revenue ($10.8 million). The company’s executive leadership has given IT management a directive that the IT budget must shrink over time as a percentage of revenue, and within five years it must comprise no more than 5 percent of revenue.IT management has given you a directive to make recommendations that will enable a 1 percent reduction in the IT budget as a percentage of revenue annually as illustrated in the table below.

A simple computer science project in Java

It is a lab exercise related with graph theory. I need this to be solved in JAVA. Here’s a small excerpt from the file:

“Cargo gets introduced to the system at any one of the nodes or sites in the system and from there will need to be carried from its source to destination. This will require the theoretical companies that own the sites to dispatch vehicles to collect the cargo. Cargo whose destination is a site that is beyond the current company’s network will have to work together with the other companies to get the cargo to its destination.”

Please check the attached doc. My budget is 15$.
