Discussion( Information Governance and Information Technology)

 Question:

“The Path to Information Value” that 70% (seventy percent) of managers and executives say data are “extremely important” for creating competitive advantage.

In addition, it is implied by the authors that, “The key, of course, is knowing which data matter, who within a company needs them, and finding ways to get that data into users’ hands.”

Based on the company you have identified for your Final Paper, discuss

S1/1 Assignment

The Bible contains truths regarding everything that happens in our lives. This is also true of laws and regulations that impact our actions, including our interaction with others in cyberspace.

The Bible has much to say related to following appropriate laws and regulations. Romans 13:1–2 tells us:

Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. (New International Version)

Compare the Romans passage to Acts 5:29: “Peter and the other apostles replied: ‘We must obey God rather than human beings!’” The context of the passage in Acts took place at a time when Peter and others were brought before the religious leaders of Jerusalem for preaching the Gospel of Christ.

  1. Review the material in the “Getting Started” section above, and read Romans 13:1–2 and Acts 5:29.
  2. Be sure to address the following prompts in your paper:
    1. Compare the two passages (Romans 13:1–2 and Acts 5:29). What are the similarities and differences between the two?
    2. How would the passage in Romans apply to issues related to cybercrime and other technology concerns? Feel free to share your personal view based on your cultural and religious background.
    3. How would this passage apply to your own life? Feel free to share your personal view based on your cultural and religious background.
  3. Your paper should be at least 250 words in length.

Explain the role of intuition in decision making

Explain the role of intuition in decision making

This posting should be at least 250 words. Your primary posting can end with a “tag-line” or a related question of your own. 

Attached student posting either answer student’s question, or comment on their answering my question. Secondary responses should be substantial and well-meaning, between 100-125 words. Initial postings should comply with APA format. For secondary responses, APA is optional (but good practice).

Discussion 4- Project HR & Stakeholder Mngt

Assigned Readings:

Chapter 5 – Executive Stakeholders

Initial Postings: Read and reflect on the assigned readings for the week. Then post what you thought was the most important concept(s), method(s), term(s), and/or any other thing that you felt was worthy of your understanding in each assigned textbook chapter.Your initial post should be based upon the assigned reading for the week, so the textbook should be a source listed in your reference section and cited within the body of the text. Other sources are not required but feel free to use them if they aid in your discussion.Also, provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:

  1. Describe what a phantom stakeholder may be? Throughout a project, do random, new, people, want to become a stakeholder? If so, how should a project manager handle this?

Develop a Shipping Calculator Java application, which contains the concepts of a Java object and class.

 

Develop a Shipping Calculator Java application, which contains the concepts of a Java object and class.

1.    This Java Program must include the declaration and definition of object and class.

The steps for the program are outlined below:

1.    Create a Java class named Package that contains the following:

a.    Package should have three private instance variables of type double named length, width, and height

b.    Package should have one private instance variable of the type Scanner named input, initialized to System.in

c.     No-args (explicit default) public constructor, which initializes all three double instance variables to 1.0.  

d.    Initial (parameterized) public constructor,  which defines three parameters of type double, named length, width,  and height, which are used to initialize the instance variables of same  name. 

e.    Public copy constructor, with a parameter of type Package, used to duplicate an existing Package object. 

f.     Three public void methods named inputLength, inputWidth, and inputHeight. Each method will prompt the user for the appropriate property, and input a double value using the Scanner object input to initialize the instance variables 

g.    A public void method named displayDimensions which prints the dimensions as length X width X height (each value separated by a ” X “). 

h.    A public method of type double named calcVolume that calculates the volume and returns the result as a double value. 

2.    Create a class named Shipment

a.    The program must ask for two separate packages to ship

b.    The program must calculate the cost difference using the difference in volume:

i.e. The base price for a package with volume <=1 is $3, for every unit increase in volume, the cost increases by $1

e.g. 1: a parcel with volume 4, the cost is $3+ $1 +$1 +$1 = $6

e.g. 2: a parcel with volume 2.5, the cost is $3 + $1.5 = $4.5

c.    Give the following (in order of priority):  

                                              i.If there is no difference, display the costs as the same  

                                             ii.If  the cost of one is less than twice the other, display that it is  “slightly more than”  

                                            iii.If  the cost of one is less than three times the other, display that it is  “twice”  

                                            iv.If  the cost of one is less than four times the other, display that it is  “triple”  

                                             v.If  the cost of one is less than five times the other, display that it is  “quadruple”  

                                            vi.Otherwise, display that as a calculated multiple (eg 5x, 6x etc)

c.     The program must indicate the more costly package (if not same cost) and by how much  

d.    The program must calculate and display the appropriate message (including proper dimension and cost format)  

f.     Your  code also does NOT need to worry if the user inputs an invalid value  for the input (example: invalid length). The output of your code must match the samples.  

g.    You must change the title i.e. Welcome to shipping calculator!

NOTE: Use the module content/videos, to help guide you in your development.
