Chapter 10 – Policymakers are tasked with making decisions on issues characterized as wicked problems because of controversies, unknown relationships between causes and consequences, and uncertain futures. Moody and Gerrits (2015) think that it’s desirable to get decisions mapped ahead of the possible outcomes prior to the actual decision-making because that would generate certainty in ambiguous situations.  Looking closely at the Technological perceptions, technology is thought to revolve around humans.  It reflects on questions of who drives technology. 

Q1: Identify and name up to five (5) of those questions discussed in this debate and provide a brief narrative to support your response?

• identify and name up to five (5) of these questions discussed in the debate
• provide a short and clear narrative for each question to support your responses,
• provide substantive feedback to two other colleague’s response to the DF,
• DON’T COPY and PASTE responses into the DF from textbooks and any other digital Internet sources, its Verbatim!

131307WK6B: Chapter Discussion Forum.

Chapter 10  – Policymakers are tasked with making decisions on issues characterized as wicked problems because of controversies, unknown relationships between causes and consequences, and (consequently) uncertain futures. It would be desirable to map the decisions and their possible outcomes prior to the actual decision making because that would generate certainty in ambiguous situations. Broadly speaking, this provides the motive for using computational modeling for policymaking as expressed in, e.g., policy informatics

Q2:   From this revelation, why is it more common to work with models “mod-ded off-the-shelf” (MOTS)?

• identify and name the reasons for why it’s more common to work with MOTS as above
• provide a short and clear narrative for each reason to support your responses,
• provide substantive feedback to two other colleague’s response to the DF questions,
• DON’T COPY and PASTE responses into the DF from textbooks and any other digital Internet sources,
• 1.25 points will be earned for the correct responses

 Security Compliance Goals

 What are two future trends in information systems infrastructure and how do you think they will affect the way businesses use IT to gain an advantage over their competitors? Use at least two references to justify your thinking. 

Need Minimum 300 words excluding references

 
When asked if you “accept the terms” of downloaded software, describe how clicking “yes” indicates you have entered into a contract. Discuss whether you have ever read these terms of use before you clicked and what the terms say.

• Object-oriented programming is used in all types of development projects, such as mobile development, windows development, and cloud-based service development. Explain three benefits of object-oriented programming that you have identified as essential for creating web applications. What evidence can you present that discourages the use of object-oriented programming?
• Flesh out your thoughts and interact with your classmates. Post your initial response by Wednesday 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.

1. Conduct a Risk Assessment (Quantitative, Qualitative, or Semi Quantitative, Frame, Scope, Asset Valuation, Tier 1 thru 3, Vulnerability, Current State and security posture (i.e. controls or lack of), Maturity CMMI 0 thru 5 0 Non-existent, 1 Intimal adhoc, 2 Planned, 3, Well Defined, 4 Quantitively Managed, 5 Optimized)
2. Create a Risk Mitigation Plan (Reduce risk, by mitigation, transfer, avoid, or acceptance)
3. What laws, treaties or conditions apply? (Compliance)
4. Perform a BIA (Business Impact Analysis)
5. Create a BCP (Business Continuity Plan)
6. Create a DRP (Disaster Recovery Plan)
7. Create a CIRP (Cyber Incident Response Plan)

Scenario (CIO for a major online store): 

You are the CIO for a major online store.  It specializes in goods for the elderly  with things such as clothes, support items, orthopedic appliances, etc. Many medical supply chains rely upon your company to deliver goods their clients. Your company currently specializes in goods for the west coast. You have centers in Seattle, Los Angeles, and Sacramento. 

Each city has a data center which houses 10 physical servers, over 1000 virtual servers, and hosts their nearly 7,500 employees along with customers and vendors. 

 How do you feel blockchain will change the global economy or will it?  Explain your answer.

Create a new Java Project for this assignment.



        Copy the provided class CellPhone into your default package area.

1. Create a new class called SmartPhone that extends CellPhone. Add the following attributes:
   1. boolean – hasGPS. 
   2. boolean – hasWIFI. 
   3. String OSVersion.   Default to “Windows 10 Mobile”;
   4. long internalMemoryStorageCapacity – Default to 16_000_000_000L;
   5. Generate the setters and getters and toString() method.
2. Create a new class called TestPhone that includes a main() method.
3. Inside the main() method of TestPhone, do the following: 
   1. Create an instance of CellPhone. Set all the following attributes to values of your choosing: (Call all the setters with values) 
      1. cell provider
      2. isFlipPhone
      3. hasInternational
      4. batteryType
      5. Add 2 favorite phone numbers
   2. Display the CellPhone toString results.
   3. Create an instance of SmartPhone. Set the following attributes to values of your choosing: 
      1. hasGPS
      2. hasWIFI
      3. OSVersion 
      4. cell Provider
      5. isFlipPhone
      6. hasInternational
      7. batteryType
      8. Add 1 favorite phone number
   4. Display the SmartPhone toString results.

Deliverables include the SmartPhone.java and TestPhone.java files.

There is no defined constructors in the CellPhone class so the super() method does not need to be addressed.

Discussion on Cloud Computing 

Paper Section 1: Reflection and Literature Review

Using Microsoft Word and Professional APA format, prepare a professional written paper supported with three sources of research that details what you have learned from chapters 7, 8, 9, and 10.  This section of the paper should be a minimum of two pages. 

Paper Section 2:  Applied Learning Exercises

In this section of the professional paper, apply what you have learned from chapters 7, 8, 9, and 10 to descriptively address and answer the problems below.  Important Note:  Dot not type the actual written problems within the paper itself.

1. Survey and compare and possibly test some text mining tools and vendors. Start with clearforest.com and megaputer.com. Also consult with dmreview.com to further identify some text mining products to explore and even test?
2. Survey and compare and possibly test some Web mining tools and vendors. Identify some Web mining products and service providers that could potentially be useful in a work environment you may want to be part of.
3. Investigate via a Web search how models and their solutions are used by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in the “war against terrorism.” Also investigate how other governments or government agencies are using models in their missions.
4. Search online to find vendors of genetic algorithms and investigate the business applications of their products and even possibly test them where applicable. What kinds of applications are most prevalent and why?
5. Important Note:  With limited time for a college class, perfection is not expected but effort to be exposed to various tools with attempts to learn about them is critical when considering a career in information technology associated disciplines.

Important Note:  There is no specific page requirement for this section of the paper but make sure any content provided fully addresses each problem.

Paper Section 3:  Conclusions

After addressing the problems, conclude your paper with details on how you will use this knowledge and skills to support your professional and or academic goals. This section of the paper should be around one page including a custom and original process flow or flow diagram to visually represent how you will apply this knowledge going forward.  This customized and original flow process flow or flow diagram can be created using the “Smart Art” tools in Microsoft Word.

Paper Section 4:  APA Reference Page

The three or more sources of research used to support this overall paper should be included in proper APA format in the final section of the paper.
