IT Software for Business

1st question

Contextual Information:

· There are two wide used methodologies to manage a software development life cycle: Agile and Scrum. Create a Word Document briefly describing their differences. (word count 500 words).

2nd question

The table below shows the historical data of the Average Closing Price (2005-2020.) Estimate the annual variation of crude oil prices (in %). Use the equation be-low. Draw a line chart showing the evolution of the annual variation and add a trend line and describe its type (positive, negative, neutral). There are 2 historical minimum values reached in 2008 and 2020; relate those minimum values to socio-economic events and include them as labels in the chart.

1. Iris Data Set

24 Ultimate Data Science (Machine Learning) Projects to Boost Your Knowledge and Skills (& Can be Accessed Freely)

Run the code several times and show the intended output…you also need to EXPLAIN the output…

You will also need to provide output for the following:

Python file containing your code…

Dimensions of the data…

Sample of the data…

Statistical summary of the data…

Class distribution…

One univariate and one multivariate diagram…

Decision Tree…explain the best depth and why?…

Results of training and new data, 80%-20% split…

Accuracy report…what is it telling us?…

Confusion matrix…what is it telling us?…

Classification report…what is it telling us?…

Results of training and new data, 50%-50% split…

Accuracy report…what is it telling us?…

Confusion matrix…what is it telling us?…

Classification report…what is it telling us?…

Part 2 – Updated Code…

Now that you have a working base of code, let’s apply it to a “real world” scenario…

Find an article or video that shows a potentially SIMILAR usage of the application you created in Part 1…

Update the original application so that it “works” for the NEW application…

In this “Movie Recommendation” project, you might find an article on “book recommendations” …you would then update the original program to handle the new scenario…

YOU MUST UPDATE THE ORIGINAL CODE…do not provide entirely new code base.

Run the code several times and show the intended output…you also need to EXPLAIN the output…

You will also need to provide the same output for THIS application, as you did for the ORIGINAL application…specifically:

Python file containing your code…

Dimensions of the data…

Sample of the data…

Statistical summary of the data…

Class distribution…

One univariate and one multivariate diagram…

Decision Tree…explain the best depth and why?…

Results of training and new data, 80%-20% split…

Accuracy report…what is it telling us?…

Confusion matrix…what is it telling us?…

Classification report…what is it telling us?…

Results of training and new data, 50%-50% split…

 APA format is required. References should be listed immediately after the question that is being answered. Each question lists a minimum number of unique scholarly references; the textbook is considered one unique reference (per question) regardless of how many times it is used. All references should be from the years 2010 to present day.

1. Give two examples of technologies that have had a big effect on globalization. Use at least three unique references. Length: 4-5 paragraphs. 

2. What are some of the advantages of globalization? Use at least three unique references. Length: 4-5 paragraphs.

3. What is a code of ethics? What is one advantage and one disadvantage of a code of ethics? Use at least three unique references. Length: 4-5 paragraphs.

4. Give an example of how NORA could be used to identify an individual. Use at least three unique references. Length: 4-5 paragraphs.

 The vast majority of the population associates Blockchain with cryptocurrency Bitcoin; however, there are many other uses of blockchain; such as Litecoin, Ether, and other currencies. In this discussion, please describe at least two cryptocurrencies with applicable examples. Discuss some similarities and differences. Lastly, discuss if you have any experience using any cryptocurrencies. 

2-1 Discussion: Intellectual Property and Copyright

 After reading about intellectual property this week, create an original post in which you discuss the following: Why do we care about intellectual property? How successful have our attempts to protect intellectual property been? Have all countries defined and protected intellectual property the same way?

Finally, in responding to your peers’ posts, reflect on the impact that copyright infringement has had on information technology by referencing a recent story in the news that is an example of this impact.

for Dr Elahi

Oliver’s business is now growing. He built a company and has sales agents and sales supervisors working for him all over England. He realizes using google spreadsheets is not sustainable. 

He wants to invest in a scalable system and he is thinking to recruit a software engineer and a data engineer (you). 

The software engineer has to come up with a mobile app that allows the sales agents to report their sales from the app. 

The app should be connected with a data pipeline that would eventually make the data ready for analysis. 

– What would be your strategy to build a strong and reliable data pipeline and how will you structure it ? Explain the different steps for processing the data, what makes each step important? 

Mention which tools would you use for each of these steps. Feel free to argument as much as you feel it relevant You’re free to make assumptions about the mobile app e.g. The raw data is stored in a No-Sql database…
