Research paper

 

short research paper will be a detailed summary from the research. Find an article/peer-reviewed research paper. If you have a difficult time, Google Scholar is a wonderful location to find these types of articles:

https://scholar.google.com/

Once you find the article, you read and then write a review of it.  Think of it as an article review where you write a short overview of the article.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately 2-3 pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.

• Follow APA6 guidelines. Paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.

• Support answers with the readings from the documents attached and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations. 

• 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.

5Th Discussion And Assignment

 Discussion:
This week we discuss the overall process of developing new software.  Please also note the differences between software development and methods (200 to 300 words) references

Exercise

  1. How is the IT function organized in your school or place of employment? Create an organization chart showing how the IT organization fits into your overall organization. Comment on how centralized or decentralized the IT function is.
  2. Which software-development methodology would be best if an organization needed to develop a software tool for a small group of users in the marketing department? Why? Which implementation methodology should they use? Why?
  3. Chapter 7 – Review the section on dealing with multiple locations and outsourcing.  Review figure 7.2 and note how virtual team communications further reiterates the importance of this model. 
  4. Chapter 8 – Review the Siemens AG case study.  Note the importance of understanding the interrelationships amongst all the senior leaders at every location.  Pay special attention to Figure 8.1 and Figure 8.2. Note how the corporate CIO should engage with each of the regional leaders.  Why is this important?

If you have you been involved with a company doing a redesign of business processes, discuss what went right during the redesign and what went wrong from your perspective. Additionally, provide a discussion on what could have been done better to minimize the risk of failure. If you have not yet been involved with a business process redesign, research a company that has recently completed one and discuss what went wrong, what went right, and how the company could have done a better job minimizing the risk of failure.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately 4 pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.

• Follow APA7 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.

• 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.

Java Programming

Design a Java application that will read a file containing data related to the US. Crime statistics from 1994-2013.

Here are the codes I have so far:

public class USCrimeClass {

// Crime data fields for each data to retrieve

private int year;

private double populationGrowth;

private int maxMurderYear;

private int minMurderYear;

private int maxRobberyYear;

private int minRobberyYear;

/**

* Crime data constructor to set variables

*/

public USCrimeClass(int year, int populationGrowth, int maxMurderYear, int minMurderYear, int maxRobberyYear, int minRobberyYear){

this.year = year;

this.populationGrowth = populationGrowth;

this.maxMurderYear = maxMurderYear;

this.minMurderYear = minMurderYear;

this.maxRobberyYear = maxRobberyYear;

this.minRobberyYear = minRobberyYear;

}

// Constructor defaults

public USCrimeClass(int count){

this.year = 0;

this.populationGrowth = 0.0;

this.maxMurderYear = 0;

this.minMurderYear = 0;

this.maxRobberyYear = 0;

this.minRobberyYear = 0;

}

/**

* Getter methods for each field

* @return percentage growth and years for murder and robbery

*/

public int getYear() {return this.year; }

public double getPopulationGrowth() {return this.populationGrowth; }

public int getMaxMurderYear() {return this.maxMurderYear; }

public int getMinMurderYear() {return this.minMurderYear; }

// Setter method for each field
