  2. In your opinion was any of the information that you uncovered in your search interesting or surprising?

Corporate Ethics Portfolio

 

The corporate Board of Directors has asked you to provide a portfolio of your research into the expansion of the company into the country you presented on in Wk 4.

Include an overall corporate code of ethics based on your review of professional associations, such as IEEE, ACM, SANS, ISACA, ASIS, and ISC(2). Include the following in your portfolio:

  • Based on the ethical challenges identified in Week 4, choose and depict 2 risks to the corporation related to each challenge in a 1-page table using either Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, or Excel.
  • A 1- to 2-page corporate code of ethics using Microsoft Word based on your review of professional associations, such as IEEE, ACM, SANS, ISACA, ASIS, and ISC(2), and the ethical challenges identified
  • A 1- to 2-page concise synopsis of classical ethical theories
  • A 1- to 2-page process to logically evaluate ethical dilemmas as they arise with the expansion of the company into the country you have chosen. Ensure that the process reflects the code of ethics you provide; for example, your process could start with identifying which part of the code applies to a particular new dilemma and move through assessing the various choices you could make along with any resulting consequences. The end goal is to help your corporation manage complex ethical questions with a variety of stakeholders.

All references need to adhere to APA guidelines and images should not be copied unless you’ve obtained author permission or used copyright-free images.

Hillclimbing and simulated anealing algorithms

write a hillclimbing algorithm to find maximum value of function f=|13.value(v)-170| where v is the input binary variable of 40bits and one counts the number of 1’s in v. set Max at 100 and thus reset algorithm 100 times for the global maximum and print the found maximum value for each reset separated by a comma in the output.txt file.

Note:For this the output should be local maxima,global maxima and so on… example:350,170,350,170,350,170

write a Simulated Anealing algorithm to find maximum value of function f=|14.value(v)-190| where v is the input binary variable of 50bits and one counts the number of 1’s in v. set Max at 200 and thus reset algorithm 100 times for the global maximum and print the found maximum value for each reset separated by a comma in the output.txt file.

Describe how to run the code. Write the code in Python.
