We all use applications on a daily basis.  Select an application (it has to be one that involves transactions like banking, shopping, booking, etc.) that you use frequently and describe it.  If you have not used one, select and research an application that interests you.  What are some pros and cons associated with the use of that application, from the end user’s and retailer’s perspectives?  
In response to your peers, expand on two of your peer’s responses. 

In Section 1, you will provide the specifications of your personal BYOD computing device. In Section 2, you will provide a brief description/explanation of the specifications of your device. You will learn about the specifications and capabilities of your machine in the process.

This task will require you to investigate your machine’s internals. How you locate your system information will vary by operating system.

Include a screenshot showing key system information.

How Will My Work Be Evaluated? 

For this assignment, you are asked to complete the Hudson Fisher Associates (HFA) Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Registration Form to ensure your device meets the organization’s minimum information technology (IT) baseline specifications and security requirements. The first part of the assignment requires you to access and document your machine’s specifications. In the second part, you will provide explanatory details on the specifications.

By documenting your specifications and explaining your results in an effective narrative format, you are showing how you use your technical knowledge to convey your ideas to others in a professional setting. Your ability to express your findings using the right mix of technical detail in a business context is an important workplace skill.

The following evaluation criteria aligned to the competencies will be used to grade your assignment:

• 1.4.2: Use vocabulary appropriate for the discipline, genre, and intended audience.
• 2.3.2: Incorporate relevant evidence to support the position.
• 3.1.1: Identify quantitative information that is relevant to a problem or situation.
• 10.1.2: Gather project requirements to meet stakeholder needs.
• 12.8.1: Recognize the process to obtain approval from the business process owner.

1. Find a peer-reviewed scholarly journal article discussing government planning and/or entrepreneurial innovation. Complete a review of the article by writing a 2-3 page overview of the article. This will be a detailed summary of the journal article, including concepts discussed and findings. Additionally, find one other source (it does not have to be a peer-reviewed journal article) that substantiates the findings in the article you are reviewing. 

   You should use the UC library (https://www.ucumberlands.edu/library) and/or Google Scholar to find these types of articles (https://scholar.google.com/ )
   Once you find the article, you will read it and write a review of it.  This is considered a research article review.
   Your paper should meet these requirements: 

   • Be approximately 3-4 pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.
   • Follow APA 7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
   • Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find resources.
   • Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

For this Discussion Board, please complete the following:

Almost all the programming languages provide a concept called loop, which helps in executing one or more statements up to a desired number of times to accomplish one or more tasks. Assume that you are the programmer hired by a bank to write a program for its automated teller machines (ATM). Give an example where you want to use a loop statement to accomplish a task in the program and answer the following questions:

• In that example, can you accomplish the same task without using a loop statement? Why or why not?
• What are the benefits of using a loop statement for that example?

ONE PAGE FOR EACH ONLY

The final paper of this course will be due during Module 9. The paper will be a 3-4page analysis of the literary work you selected during Module 4 of the course. You can use the following template for your paper, so you do not have to worry about document settings. mla_template (1).docxDownload mla_template (1).docx

Your analysis must be in your own words, and not a compilation of quotes from other sources. You should review the readings of this module before you complete this assignment. 

Then, start your paper by identifying your work and providing a brief summary in your own words. If you choses a longer work, you are certainly able to narrow it down by selecting a specific excerpt of the work. For example, reviewing the entire works of Chaucer would not be realistic for this course! This should only be one or two paragraphs.

End your introduction by identifying what concepts you will examine in this work.  You should choose just one or two concepts. These concepts can include any of the topics we discussed in the course: Theme, symbolism, literary elements, dialog, social criticism, historical context, etc. 

Next, you will complete your analysis of the concepts you identified at the end of the introduction. Each concept should be discussed using paragraphs, separating each concept into its own paragraph. This should be in your own words! A good analysis uses specific examples from the text. For example, if you are discussing Shakespeare’s use of metaphor in one of his sonnets, give an example of it. The analysis should be at least 4-5 paragraphs, covering 1-2 pages. 

End your paper by discussing what you learned through your analysis.

#Exp19_Excel_AppCapstone_IntroAssessment_Travel

You are considering several cities for a vacation. In particular, you  are interested in Washington DC, Philadelphia, and Boston. You will  format a list of memorials in DC, add Sparklines to compare the number  of visitors over a 15-year period, and create a bar chart to illustrate  annual visitors at each memorial. In addition, you will create a table  of sightseeing locations, sort and filter the data, apply conditional  formatting, and add a total row to display average time needed to spend  at each memorial. Finally, you will complete a worksheet by adding  formulas to compare estimated major expenses for each city.

Start   Excel. Download and open the file named Exp19_Excel_AppCapstone_IntroAssessment_   Travel.xlsx.   Grader has automatically added your last name to the beginning of the   filename.

On the DC sheet, check the   spelling and correct all misspelled words.

On the DC worksheet, select the   ranges A4:A10 and C4:F10 and create  a clustered bar chart. Apply the   Monochromatic Palette 12 chart  color. Apply the gradient fill to the chart   area. Do not change the  default gradient options.

#Cut the chart and paste it in   cell A13. Change the chart height to 6″ and the chart width to 7″.   Add Alt Text The bar chart shows the number of visitors to each   memorial for the years 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017.
 

Change the chart title to Annual   Visitors. Apply    Blue, Accent 5, Darker 25% font color to the chart title and category  axis   labels. Change the value axis display units to Millions. Add  Primary Minor   Vertical gridlines to the chart.
 

Apply data labels to the outside   end of the 2017 data series. Apply Number format with 1 decimal place to the data   labels.
 

On the Places sheet, find all   occurrences of BOS and replace them with Boston.

On the Places sheet tab, convert   the data to a table, assign the table name Tourist_Attractions, and apply Blue, Table Style   Medium 2.

On the Places sheet, freeze the   top row.

#On the Places worksheet, sort   the data by City in alphabetical  order and then within City, sort by   Sightseeing Locations in  alphabetical order.

On the Places worksheet, add a   total row to display the average of  the Time Needed column. Apply Number format   with zero decimal places  to the total.

#On the Places worksheet, select   the values in the Time Needed  column and apply conditional formatting to   highlight cells containing  values greater than 60 with Light Red Fill.

On the Places worksheet, apply a   filter to display only fees that are less than or equal to $10.

On the Cities worksheet, click   cell F4 and enter a formula that  will subtract the Departure Date (B1) from   the Return Date (B2) and  then multiply the result by the Rental Car per Day   value (F3).
 

#On the Cities worksheet, click   cell E13. Depending on the city,  you will either take a shuttle to/from the   airport or rent a car.  Insert an IF function that compares to see if Yes or   No is located in  the Rental Car? Column for a city. If the city contains No,   display  the value in cell F2. If the city contains Yes, display the value in    the Rental Car Total (F4). Copy the function from cell E13 and use the  Paste   Formulas option to copy the function to the range E14:E18  without removing   the border in cell E18.
 

#On the Cities worksheet, click   cell F13. The lodging is based on a  multiplier by City Type. Some cities are   more expensive than others.  Insert a VLOOKUP function that looks up the City   Type (B13), compares  it to the City/COL range (A7:B10), and returns the COL   percentage.  Then multiply the result of the lookup function by the Total Base    Lodging (B5) to get the estimated lodging for the first city. Copy the    function from cell F13 and use the Paste Formulas option to copy the  function   to the range F14:F18 without removing the border in cell F18.
