Unit 8 Assignment: Big Data Use Cases

 

Purpose

Big data is the term for a collection of data sets so large and complex that it becomes difficult to process using on-hand database management tools or traditional data processing applications. The challenges include capture, curation, storage, search, sharing, transfer, analysis, and visualization. The trend to larger data sets is due to the additional information derivable from analysis of a single large set of related data, as compared to separate smaller sets with the same total amount of data, allowing correlations to be found to delineate business trends, determine the quality of research, prevent diseases, link legal citations, combat crime, and determine real-time roadway traffic conditions.

Big data analytics is a topic fraught with both positive and negative potential. Big data is defined not just by the amount of information involved but also by its variety and complexity, as well as the speed with which it must be analyzed or delivered. The amount of data being produced is already incredibly great, and current developments suggest that this rate will only increase in the near future. Improved service should result as companies better understand their customers, but it is also possible that this data will create privacy problems. Thus, big data is important not only to students who hope to gain employment using these techniques and those who plan to use it for legitimate research, but also for everyone who will be living and working in the 21st century.

Journal Article Assignment

I need a 4to8 pages summary about the article uploaded in which there will be a link in which there will be an article, I will be attaching a screenshot about the requirements. The other pdf file is the article which u need to work on.

Search and Sort

Write a Java application that performs the following task:

  1. Create an int array (you can declare the values yourself, or use the Random feature in java to create this array)
  2. Sort the data.
  3. Prompt user to input an integer from the keyboard
  4. Search for the user input value in the array created in step 1 using a simple linear search.
  5. Display a message whether the user input has been found in the  array, at what position, and how many steps the program required to  search for the data value.
  6. Search for the user input value in the array created in step 1 using another (hopefully more efficient) search algorithm.
  7. Display a message whether the user input has been found in the  array, at what position, and how many steps the program required to  search for the data value.

After you are done with this program, submit the source code along with the screen shot of your program.

Understand and implement different search and sort algorithms.

Advance Database ER

1.Construct an E-R diagram for a hospital with a set of patients and a set of patients and a set of medical doctors. Associate with each patient a log of the various tests and examination conducted

Please use a ER diagram tool for this problem such as MySQL workbench design tool, creatly,LucidChart

3.1 Data Gathering Instrument

 

Data Gathering Instrument

Task: Create one (1) instrument that could be used to gather data for your mock dissertation topic. The instrument should be designed to be exactly how it would be deployed to collect data. Since instrumentation usually goes through several steps of field testing, for purposes of this assignment you can submit a deployment-ready draft of your instrument without field testing it. Be sure the instrument collects data appropriately to measure your research question.  If your study will not use an instrument to collect data because your data is archival and already exists, you will discuss your process for data retrieval.

See the examples linked here:

* Likert Scale Survey: (Attachment:  Teacher Burnout Survey_M – Google Forms.docx)  

 * Interview Protocol:  (Attachment:  Successful_Learning_Interview_Protocol_Final_Draft.docx)

*  Observation Protocol:  (Attachment:  Dissertation Classroom Observation Instrument.docx  )

Discussions

1) We learned that e-mail is a major area of focus for information governance (IG) efforts, and has become the most common business software application and the backbone of business communications today.  In addition, the authors provided details to support their position by providing 2013 survey results from 2,400 corporate e-mail users from a global perspective.  The results indicated that two-thirds of the respondents stated that e-mail was their favorite form of business communication which surpassed not only social media but also telephone and in-person contact. 

 With this detail in mind, briefly state why the e-Mail has become a critical component for IG implementation? Support with references and do your usual critical review of at least 2 other students’ posts.

Please make your initial post and two response posts substantive. A substantive post will do at least two of the following:

  • Ask an interesting, thoughtful question pertaining to the topic

2)Your readings in Chapter 9 this week, as well as the handout discussing the risk companies face over unstructured data raises concerns that need to be addressed when a company uses social media. 

With your industry in mind, identify and discuss these concerns and address how this can be effectively handled. Support with references and do your usual critical review of at least 2 other students’ posts.

Please make your initial post and two response posts substantive. A substantive post will do at least two of the following:

  • Ask an interesting, thoughtful question pertaining to the topic
  • Answer a question (in detail) posted by another student or the instructor

Part B: Cruisin Fusion Contest

Now that the Cruisin’ Fusion website is up and running, you and your team have decided to run a contest on the blog asking customers to name the latest fusion recipe. In order to participate, the customer will need to enter their first and last name, phone number, and an email address, as well as the suggested fusion name. The winner of the contest will receive a $20 gift card.

Kiran supports this idea but has concerns she wants the team to consider before moving forward. She has asked that you prepare a 6- to 10-slide presentation with speaker notes for the next web meeting to address the following:

  • Research and assess the ethical issues related to data customer collection and information management. How will customer information be protected?

  • Research and examine the need to protect the intellectual property of the customers who submit name suggestions. What protection will Cruisin’ Fusion need in order to use the name suggested by the winner? What protection or disclaimer does the customer require?

  • Include a 1/2-page disclaimer to add to the blog for customers outlining the contest rules, explaining how their personal information will be used and stored, and discussing the use of all intellectual property submitted as part of the contest.

Note: The title page and reference page do not count toward the assignment length requirement.
