Discuss the differences as well as the advantages and disadvantages of IaaS, SaaS, and PaaS. Otherwise, you may include an implementation of each such as Salesforce or AWS with details on their services. 
You must post at least twice during the week on at least  two different days to get full credit. Your posts should add to the conversation with relevant information. Just agreeing with you classmates or similar responses will not receive any credit. 
I am not looking for long posts. Eight or so sentences for each post of  ORIGNAL writing will suffice. I do not want see paragraph after paragraph of copied material. Your post will be checked by SafAssign for similarity. 
If you use references they  MUST include in text citations where the information is used. If the information is a direct quote from a source it  MUST be in parentheses. Otherwise you are at risk of plagiarism. However, you do not have to use the APA Edition 6 format (template with fonts, heading, etc.) in the discussions.
Ignorance of APA Edition 6 citing and referencing is not acceptable in graduate level work. If you do not use it you may be accused of plagiarism. If you have not done so please familiarize yourself with it now. There are numerous sources under the “Start Here” tab.
Please DO NOT submit your posts as attachments in the discussion area. All writing need to be in the discussion area.

The beginning of chapter 4 has two pictures of galaxies. The study of the universe has been on-going for decades. One organization involved with this is the SETI Institute. You may remember this from the movie Contact. One area of their research is with exoplanets. Until 1995, other solar system with planets like ours was a simple conjecture. Now, this is a very exciting field of study. To do this, the scientists gather immense amounts of data from the telescopes. For their research, the goal is to find a planet which could, in theory, support human life. In this endeavor, the scientists would not be as interested in a gas giant, e.g. Saturn or Jupiter.

If you were creating a decision tree based on the telescope observations, please describe what the root node would be, possible internal nodes, and leaf terminal nodes.

Answer the following question:

SQL is a pervasive querying language. While there is one primary SQL dialect that all SQL RDBMS implementations must support, and that’s ANSI SQL, each database platform comes out with its own context. Each of these dialects has its own  DDL (Data Definition Language). DML (Data Manipulation Language). and DQL (Data Query Language). Other than for marketing purposes (to sell the product as unique), what is the value of creating a new variation of a SQL dialect. 

Provide an example of one SQL dialect as part of your write-up.

Contingency Planning

Contingency planning is a risk mitigation process for developing back-up plans in anticipation of events (scenarios) that might disrupt ‘business as usual’. Business continuity planning is an expanded version of contingency planning that typically encompasses a more comprehensive and extended response plan for getting back to ‘business as usual’. In a well-formatted, highly-detailed research paper, address the need to contingency planning, ensuring to address the following items:

(1) Benefits of scenario events/planning.
(2) Questions to consider when implementing scenario planning.
(3) The common types of scenario planning.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately five to six pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page. (Remember, APA is double spaced)
• Follow APA 7 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. The UC Library is a great place to find resources.
• 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.
• Plagiarism is not tolerated and may result to take the course again 

Prepare a memo for the CEO outlining your initial response plan and including the following: 
(1) define the problem at PARTS: 50% of the solution is defining the problem   (2) formulate an Initial Response Plan: What needs to happen, when, by whom, & why?
(3) what more information do you require to define the problem or to formulate your plan? Prepare questions and request to ask the Professor for additional PARTS or related information. 

 The collection of data is not the onset of data analysis projects. A data analysis project begins with a purpose, problem, and research questions.

Find one scholarly research paper with an excellent example of:

• Problem statement
• Research questions

The example shall relate to a practical, real-world work environment in the information technology field. After finding the research, discuss the following:

• What makes this example excellent in the topics that initiate a data analysis project?
• What relates this example to a practical, real-world work environment in the information technology field?
• Do the research questions meet the criteria defined in the lecture in week one?
• What is the generalizability of this research?

For this lab you will implement a Java program that uses several different data types and operators.

1. Start Apache NetBeans.
2. Create a new project called Lab 3.
3. Add a java main class called yourlastnameLab3.java with your last name to the project and csci1011.lab3 as the package name
4. Your program must have the following comments at the top of it

//
// Sample program to calculate the value of a deposit
// after a year of earning interest.
// CSCI 1011 Lab 3

1. It then should show a welcome message
2. It then prompts the user to enter an initial deposit amount
3. It reads the initial deposit value and assigns it into a double variable.
4. Program then updates the new value of balance by using the following formula:

balance = balance + (balance * 0.049);

1. Then the program will show a message like:

With a 4.9% APR your deposit will be worth $Y in one year.”

1. Instead of Y you must show the value of balance variable.
2. Run the program and test it with sample input. Do this several times.
3. Modify the program so it uses a named constant in place of 0.049.
4. Run the program and test it to see if it gives the same values.
5. Modify the interest rate to 0.059.
6. Run the program again and test it to see the values it gives have changed.
7. Did you change the output so it now says 5.9%? If not make that change and run the program again.
8. Since it would be easier not to have to change the program in two places, declare a new double variable called percent and set its value to 100 times the interest rate.
9. Modify your output statement so it uses the percent variable instead of 5.9.
10. Run the program again and test it to make sure it still works properly.
11. Add some additional statements to compute what the balance will be after a second year of earning interest and display this result along with the original result.
12. Run the program again and test it to make sure that the new code works.
13. Here is an output of the program:

Welcome to (your name)’s interest calculator

Please enter your initial deposit amount:

10

With a 5.8999999999999995% APR your deposit will be worth $10.59 in one year.

With a 5.8999999999999995% APR your deposit will be worth $11.21481 in two years.

1. Upload the file yourlastnameLab3.java to the drop box folder labeled Lab 3.

PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS

In this assignment you will implement three basic graph algorithms: breadth-first search, depth-

first traversal, and topological sort. We are not providing any code template, but you must follow 

the input and output formats specified below. Read carefully what you are required to do to 

receive full credit and attempt the extra credit tasks only after you are done with the 

requirements. 

First, implement a graph data structure using adjacency lists. Your code must read graphs of 

arbitrary size from a file (as long as there is enough memory available, your code must work: do 

not assume a maximum number of vertices). The input format is as follows: one line per vertex, 

the first element is the vertex id and the following numbers are the adjacent vertices. The input 

file will always be a bunch of integers and white space. For example,

1 3 4 

2 

3 1 4 

4 1 3

is a graph with four vertices, and three undirected edges: (1, 3), (1,4) and (3,4). 

Then, implement three algorithms: 

• Breadth-first search. Calculate the distance from vertex 1 to all other vertices using BFS. 

Then, print all the vertices sorted by distance from vertex 1. Note that if the graph is 

unconnected, some nodes may have distance ∞.

• Depth-first traversal. Calculate discovery and finish times using DFT. Then, print all the vertices sorted by discovery time.

Topological sort. Print the topological sort of the graph. 

A few comments:

• Look carefully at the sample input and output files and follow the same format. 

• When you look through vertices, visit them in increasing order.

Extra credit: 

• Use BFS to determine whether a graph is connected. The input is a graph, and the output 

is yes or no.

• Implement an algorithm to detect whether a graph has a cycle. The input is a graph, and 

the output is yes or no.

• Design and implement an algorithm that takes as its input a graph ???? = (????, ????) and a 

permutation of ????, and outputs whether the permutation of ???? is a topological sort of ????.

Your algorithm must run in Θ(|????| + |????|).
