Find a peer-reviewed scholarly journal article discussing electronic innovation and the government.  Complete a review of the article by writing a 4-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.  

 Week 3 Discussion

Assume that you must select a cloud-based data storage solution for your company. List the factors you would consider when selecting a vendor.

You must do the following:

1) Create a new thread. 

2) Select AT LEAST 3 other students’ threads and post substantive comments on those threads. Your comments should extend the conversation started with the thread. 

ALL original posts and comments must be substantive. (I’m looking for about a paragraph – not just “I agree.”)

For this project, select an organization that has leveraged Data Mining technologies in an attempt to improve profitability or to give them a competitive advantage.

Research the organization to understand the challenges that they faced and how they intended to use Data Mining to overcome their challenges. The paper should include the following sections each called out with a header.

• Company Overview: The section should include the company name, the industry they are in and a general overview of the organization.

• Challenges: Discuss the challenges that limited their profitability and/or competitiveness and how they planned to leverage Data Mining to overcome their challenges.

• Solution: Describe the organization’s Data Mining implementation and the benefits they realized from the implementation. What was the result of implementing Data Mining? Did they meet their objectives for fall short?

• Conclusion: Summarize the most important ideas from the paper and also make recommendations or how they might have achieved even greater success.

A minimum of four references are required for this project: 

• Two printed (book references) 

• Two electronic (on-line references) 

 Topic: Research the popular Types, Pros, Cons and your company’s use of Biometric Identification devices. Remember to get permission from security. If you are not currently employed discuss what types you would recommend.  

Instructions: Please download the Assignment 4 Biometrics Assessment template (MS Word), which is already in APA 7 format, using size 12 Times New Roman font, 1-inch margins, TOC, Headings and Reference page. If you insert images or tables in your report make sure you label them appropriately according to APA. Once completed name your file: YourName_Assignment_4_Biometrics_Assessment.docx and submit to the appropriate assignment folder. You must have at least 3 references and 1 must be from the text. The others may be from the text or web sites. I will NOT accept any references from any other sources including journals UNLESS you provide the written proof of the reference with your submission. 

This task relates to a sequence of assessments that will be repeated across Chapters 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. Select any example of a visualisation or infographic, maybe your own work or that of others. The task is to undertake a deep, detailed ‘forensic’ like assessment of the design choices made across each of the five layers of the chosen visualisation’s anatomy. In each case your assessment is only concerned with one design layer at a time.

For this task, take a close look at the interactivity choices:

1. Start by identifying all the interactive features deployed, listing them under the headers of either data or presentation adjustments
2. How suitable are the choices and deployment of these interactive features? If they are not, what do you think they should have been?
3. Go through the set of ‘Influencing factors’ from the latter section of the book’s chapter to help shape your assessment and to possibly inform how you might tackle this design layer differently
4. Also, considering the range of potential interactive features and functions, what would you do differently or additionally?

Gathering System Requirements Build vs Buy

Share your thoughts and opinions on gathering system requirements in this week’s discussion.

• Flesh out your thoughts and interact with your classmates. Post your initial response by the middle of each week and then return on a couple of other days to see what’s going on with the discussions. The more you interact, the more you learn from your peers, and the more you share with them about what you know. You will also be showing your instructor what you have picked up.
