This project requires you to write at 3-5 page APA formatted research paper.  The focus is on an organization that you choose which has leveraged Cloud Computing technologies in an attempt to improve profitability or to give them a competitive advantage.  Research the organization to understand the challenges that they faced and how they intended to use Cloud Computing to overcome their challenges.  The paper will be submitted during the last week of the course.    

Need in 3 hours

 Encryption:

 1. Read keys from user input. Prompt the user to enter a character for each key. 2. Read the plain text (“data”) from the input file. The name of the input file is one of the command line argument. 3. Implement your encryption algorithm. 4. Encrypt “data” and write to a file. (The name of the file is chosen by the programmer.)

 Decryption: 1. Read keys from user input. Prompt the user to enter a character for each key. 5. Read the file that encrypted data was saved and extract the encrypted “data”. The name of the encrypted file is one of the command line argument. 2. Implement your decryption algorithm. 3. Decrypt the “data” and write to a file.   

Assignment: 
Provide a reflection of at least 500 words (or 2 pages double spaced) of how the knowledge, skills, or theories of this course have been applied, or could be applied, in a practical manner to your current work environment. If you are not currently working, share times when you have or could observe these theories and knowledge could be applied to an employment opportunity in your field of study. 

Requirements:

• Provide a 500 word (or 2 pages double spaced) minimum reflection.
• Use of proper APA formatting and citations. If supporting evidence from outside resources is used those must be properly cited.
• Share a personal connection that identifies specific knowledge and theories from this course.
• Demonstrate a connection to your current work environment. If you are not employed, demonstrate a connection to your desired work environment. 
• You should not, provide an overview of the assignments assigned in the course. The assignment asks that you reflect how the knowledge and skills obtained through meeting course objectives were applied or could be applied in the workplace. 
• Any use of outside sources, including your own prior work, will result in a zero on the activity and a report being filed with Academic Affairs regarding plagiarism (even if self-plagiarism). 

The Building is 1400 feet by 1200 feet. Explain your lighting strategy. There will be 20 or so 5-10 trees surrounding the building.

About 400 words

In this individual assignment, you will perform an exploratory analysis with What-If Tool, to better understand the structure of datasets, investigate initial questions, and develop preliminary insights and hypotheses. Your final submission will take the form of a report consisting of key insights gained during your analysis.

Step 1: Dataset Selection and Initial Questions

Pick two datasets. These can be ones that are available for demo at https://pair-code.github.io/what-if-tool/explore/ (Links to an external site.). But we’ll give you additional points if you choose to use datasets that are not available there.  

After selecting datasets – but prior to analysis – write down an initial set of three questions you’d like to investigate about the datasets and prediction results from ML models.

Part 2: Exploratory Visual Analysis

Next, you will perform an exploratory analysis of your dataset and results from ML models using What-If Tool. You can either use their web demo if you use their provided datasets. You can also use notebooks and revise them with your datasets and models.

You should consider two different phases of exploration.

In the first phase, you should seek to gain an overview of the structure of your datasets and results from their models. What is the structure of datasets? Which features are used? Are there any notable issues with the distributions of datasets? What is the model performance? What features contributed the most? Are there any surprising relationships among subsets of data and model results? Are there any fairness issues?

In the second phase, you should investigate your initial questions, as well as any new questions that arise during your exploration. For each question, playing with the visualizations in What-If Tool, that might provide a useful answer. Interact with their functionalities (e.g., datapoint editors, dropdown menus, fairness analysis) to develop better perspectives, explore unexpected observations, or sanity check your assumptions. You should repeat this process for each of your questions, and also feel free to revise your questions or branch off to explore new questions.

What to submit?

You’ll submit a single PDF as a form of a report. For each dataset, you will provide 10 most interesting or surprising findings (or “insights”) with details and screenshots. Your “insights” can include important surprises or issues (such as skewed data distributions, critical fairness issues) as well as responses to your analysis questions. Each finding will consist of a title and 2-4 sentence descriptions, and screenshots. Provide sufficient detail so that anyone could read through your report and understand what you’ve learned. You are free, but not required, to annotate your images to draw attention to specific features of the data. 

Do not submit a report cluttered with everything little thing you tried. Submit a clean, succinct report that highlights the most interesting, insightful observations. You don’t need to tell us how the tool works — we already know that. Think of this like a report to your manager who wants to know what the datasets look like and how the model worked. 

The structure of the report will be:

• Dataset 1
  • Which dataset?
  • Three initial questions
  • 10 most interesting findings
• Dataset 2
  • Which dataset?
  • Three initial questions
  • 10 most interesting findings

Grading

• Clear questions applicable to the chosen datasets
• Clearly written, understandable descriptions that communicate primary insights
• Sufficient breadth of analysis, exploring multiple questions
• Sufficient depth of analysis, with appropriate follow-up questions
• Interesting insights that are worth reporting

Describe how a strategic plan for information technology can differ across organizations. 

Provide a real-world example. 

1. In your first paragraph describe how a strategic plan for information technology can differ across organizations. Use examples in your description.
2. In your second paragraph, use the example in the posting and discuss how an information technology strategic plan for a global company may differ than for a national (US) company.
3. In the third paragraph, provide a real-world example, based upon the examples used in the first post.

1 page in APA 6th Format on BlockChain on the below points.

1. In chapter 2, the author describes Hyperledger Fabric and its components. Create a new thread, choose one of the Hyperledger design principles described in chapter 2, and explain why your chosen design principle is important to a successful enterprise blockchain implementation. I’m interested to read what YOU learned from this week’s reading. Do NOT submit a research paper. Tell me what you think.

2. Then think of three questions you’d like to ask other students and add these to the end of your thread. 

Overview:

In your position as the IT manager at your local hospital, and during the last executive

meeting, your CIO asked you to check the compliance of your security framework with

HIPPA. He asked you to write a 2-3-page white paper, in which you will elaborate on the

main types of risks to information systems.

Instructions:

As you are not familiar with HIPPA, you have decided to search the web for a full text of

HIPPA to cover the following points from the HIPPA perspective:

• Describe the types of controls required to ensure the integrity of data entry and

processing and uninterrupted eCommerce.

• Outline the principles of developing a recovery plan.

Requirements:

• This assignment is a paper consisting of 2-3 pages, using APA formatting and

citations.

• Include two references.
