Weak 8-513

Written Assignment Instruction:

For this assignment you will need to access the file titled “Car Rental”. You can find this file in Week 8 assignment link. 

Suppose that a car rental agency offers insurance for a week that will cost $10 per day. A minor fender bender will cost $1,500, while a major accident might cost $15,000 in repairs. Without the insurance, you would be personally liable for any damages. What should

you do? Clearly, there are two decision alternatives: take the insurance or do not take the insurance. The uncertain consequences, or events that might occur, are that you would not be involved in an accident, that you would be involved in a fender bender, or that you would be involved in a major accident. Assume that you researched insurance industry statistics and found out that the probability of major accident is 0.05%, and that the probability of a fender bender is 0.16%.

Analyze the calculations and answer the following questions:

1. Based on the calculation in      both scenarios, what is the best value decision for either scenario? What      would you do in either scenario? Explain!
2. How would you evaluate the risk      involved in either scenario? Explain?

Please write your answers in essay form using MS Word, doc or docx files. Please make sure you adhere to APA guidelines. Submit your assignment in the designated area in Week 8. Please be mindful of the deadline.

People are using their mobile phone browsers more and more every day to find information about businesses, make product decisions and purchases, and even determine the quality of a business based on what they can find online.  Write a seven page paper in which you: 

• How to Choose a Mobile Web Development Option.
• Research and discuss effective use of screen real estate.
• Compare and contrast different mobile platforms (i.e. Android, iOS).
• The tools of mobile interface design.
• Discuss mobile information design.
• Choosing mobile web options.

Write a program that transfers the contents of one file to a second file. The first file will contain an arbitrary (unknown) number of data groups. A data group will normallyconsist of a person’s name (a string containing spaces), the person’s student ID (a large integer), the person’s GPA (a floating point number), and the person’s gender (a character).

The data in each group should be in a labeled data format. Be sure to use some kind of string library to help you with the label/value processing (as we discussed in class). (The library provided here is good but not everything you’ll need. You still need functions to convert strings into integers and into floating point numbers. string to bool, string to string, and string to character conversions should be fairly easy.)

You can choose the actual values to use for the people’s data, but you should be able to handle:

invalid labels

comments (at least whole-line)

unknown labels

missing labels

unordered (but properly blocked) labels

Remember that your program cannot know how many data groups are in the file ahead of time!

You’ll have to read the files’ names from the user. Protect your program against any errors that may occur during the opening of the files. (Try to use a class/functions to break up the program into more manageable pieces.)

As an example, you might have the input data file contain:

# format is 'label = value' -- one per line

# known labels are: name, ID, GPA, and gender

# spacing around '=' is okay

name = Jason James

ID= 123456

GPA =9.2

gender=M

# mixed items

name = Tammy James

GPA = 11.2

gender = f

ID = 123457

# mixed, missing, and extra fields

name = Henry Ramirez

GPA = 12.3

ID = 111888

major = ChE

class = soph

ID = 788531

# missing fields

name=Suzie Shah

geNDEr=t

(The highlighting is provided as a visual aid — it is not really gonna be part of your input files. *grin*)

The program should produce from this a ‘clean copy’ such as:

# format is 'label = value' -- one per line

# known labels are: name, ID, GPA, and gender

# spacing around '=' is okay

name = Jason James

ID = 123456

GPA = 9.2

gender = M

name = Tammy James

ID = 123457

GPA = 11.2

gender = F

name = Henry Ramirez

ID = 111888

GPA = 12.3

name = Suzie Shah

ID = 788531

gender = T

Note how the user’s commentary is gone and only the program’s reminder commentary is replicated. Also all labels (and gender values) are now in standard capitalization/format and order of data in each group as well as spacing of each data line is uniform. Labels that had their defaulted values (and therefore were not assigned) are not stored. (Although you could output a comment noting that the value was missing: # no GPA specified.)

The readings this week discusses broad context of risk and investigative forensics. Part of risk management is to understand when things go wrong, we need to be able to investigate and report our findings to management. Using this research, or other research you have uncovered discuss in detail how risk and investigate techniques could work to help the organization. ERM helps to protect an organization before an attack, where as forensics investigate technique will help us after an attack – so lets discus both this week.

Please make your initial post and two response posts substantive. A substantive post will do at least TWO of the following:

• Ask an interesting, thoughtful question pertaining to the topic
• Answer a question (in detail) posted by another student or the instructor
• Provide extensive additional information on the topic
• Explain, define, or analyze the topic in detail
• Share an applicable personal experience
• Provide an outside source (for example, an article from the UC Library) that applies to the topic, along with additional information about the topic or the source (please cite properly in APA 7)
• Make an argument concerning the topic.

For this discussion: 

1. Select two of your research sources to be used in your annotated bibliography assignment. 
2. Provide a brief summary of each and how they apply to your project. 
3. Identify the challenges you see in determining the best solution for your project.

Server programs are rarely implemented as non-threaded applications, even though that is how you implemented your previous server application. Servers would not be able to provide the necessary throughput unless they used threading to allow for I/O to occur concurrently with servicing client requests. For this Assignment, you will modify your finger server program from Week 6 to use threads. 

Modify your finger server program to use threads. The server should activate a new thread to process each incoming client request, thus allowing client requests to be processed concurrently.

FingerServer.java:

import java.io.*;

import java.net.ServerSocket;

import java.net.Socket;

public class FingerServer {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

ServerSocket serverSocket = new ServerSocket(79);

System.out.println(“The Finger Server is now ready!”);

while (true) { Socket socket = serverSocket.accept();

System.out.println(“Accepted an echo request”);

System.out.println(“… local socket address ” + socket.getLocalSocketAddress());

System.out.println(“… remote socket address ” + socket.getRemoteSocketAddress());

BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));

PrintWriter output = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream());

String line; while (true) { line = input.readLine(); if (line == null) break;

System.out.println(“Client said: ” + line);

output.write(“Message from server: ” + line);

output.flush(); }

socket.close();

}

}

}

FingerClient.java:

import java.io.IOException;

import java.io.InputStream;

import java.io.OutputStream;

import java.net.Socket;

public class FingerClient {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

int b;

if(args.length < 2) {

System.out.println(“Provide ip address and message through command line”);

return;

} Socket socket = new Socket(args[0], 79);

InputStream input = socket.getInputStream();

OutputStream output = socket.getOutputStream();

System.out.println(“The socket is connected the server.”);

System.out.println(“… local socket address is ” + socket.getLocalSocketAddress());

System.out.println(“… remote socket address is ” + socket.getRemoteSocketAddress());

output.write(args[1].getBytes());

socket.shutdownOutput();

while (true) { b = input.read();

if (b == -1) { break; } System.out.print((char) b);

}

System.out.println();

socket.close();

}

}
