Managerial Challenge

US Airways (American Airlines) owns a piece of land near the Pittsburgh International Airport. The land originally cost US Airways $375,000. The airline is considering building a new training center on this land. US Airways determined that the proposal to build the new training center is acceptable if the original cost of the land is used in the analysis, but the proposal does not meet the airline’s project acceptance criteria if the land cost is above $850,000. Assume the labor and raw materials total $1,720,000. A developer recently offered US Airways $2.5 million for the land. What is the economic profit, opportunity cost, and should US Airways (American Airlines) build the training center at this location? (Chapter 8 Economic Cost)

Check the video and answer the questions.

#1 John Cage Sonatas and “Interludes for Prepared Piano, Sonata II” (1946-48)
This piece is written for piano, but certainly doesn’t sound like the traditional tone color of the piano.  Describe the tone colors that are generated by this “prepared piano.”  What is a prepared piano? How are some of the particular tone colors that you hear produced by this acoustic instrument?  What influenced Cage to invent “the prepared piano”?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oL_UdQf704A You can watch a short video on how to prepare a piano here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myXAUEuECqQ

#2  Edgard Varese “Poème électronique” (Electronic Poem: 1958)
The first stage of music produced electronically in the twentieth-century was called “musique concrete.”  Composers recorded sounds onto audio tape, and then manipulated them in the studio to produce a fixed performance of the piece.  Varese’s Poem electronique is perhaps one of the most famous of these works.  read about it in your textbook before you listen.  Try to put yourself back in 1958 and think about the technology that was available at that time.  Listen carefully to try to discern some of the raw sound material.  How do you think this piece was received in 1958? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTMSllIv2lw

#3  John Adams “Short Ride on a Fast Machine” (1986)
John Adams is most often referred to a “postminimalist” composer.  Listen to his “Short Ride in a Fast Machine” and discuss why this piece could be described as “minimalist.”  Does this piece aptly portray its title?  What specific types of musical techniques does he use in this piece to create the perpetual motion? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LoUm_r7It8

#4  Kaija Saariaho “L’amour de loin” (Love from Afar: 2000)
Saariaho’s career has produced music that has used techniques of live electronics, mixed media (music, text, tape, electronics, dance, video). What is the impact of the mix of traditional instruments and electronic sounds?   How does this opera compare with the others we have studied in class, i.e. Mozart, Verdi, Wagner? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKBm9mKWJVU

#5 Tania Leon “Inura” (2009)
Using the vocabulary you have learned so far in the course, describe the basic characteristics of this piece.  Explain how Leòn utilizes call and response during this movement. Discuss the role of the percussion during this movement. Be specific. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WCsr4qeij4

CSS/562: Programming Concepts – NetBeans JAVA Programming

I have  2 Assignments to be completed and I require for both of the assignments the use of only NetBeans. No other JAVA programming tool accepted. Therefore, programming only with NetBeans.

Assignment 1:  Wk 2 Assignment: GUI and Input, Output, and Variable

 

Assignment Content

  1. In your position as the leader of a programming team, sometimes you need to take on tasks when the team is overloaded with work. Your team is currently busy, so you are taking on a customer request to create a business application that allows the user to determine an approximate cost for a business trip. The customer will add functionality and features to the application throughout the development process. You will continue to modify this application throughout the remainder of the course.

    Create a Java™ travel authorization request graphical user interface (GUI) application via NetBeans to calculate the cost of a business trip.

    Include the following functionality:

    • Traveler name (text field)
    • Airfare cost (text field)
    • Food cost (text field)
    • Hotel cost (text field)
    • Car cost (text field)
    • Shuttle cost (text field)
    • Summary: Display request total in label (must use a variable to store each item and calculate totals)
    • Button
    • The user will enter the name of the traveler and the cost of each item for a trip request. When the user clicks the calculate button, 10% of the total amount will be added to the trip total and be displayed in the Summary field. The use of variables are required to store the costs of the individual items.

      Submit your assignment as follows the Netbeans project file (export/zip file), cut/paste the source to a MS Word document and a screen shoot of the output. Also, let me know if you are using a Mac or a PC platform.

Assignment 2:  Wk 3 Assignment: Condition/Objects

 

Assignment Content

  1. The customer is pleased with the first set of functionality and features added to the business application in Week 2. This week the customer wants you to add functionality and features to the application you created last week.

    • Include a combo box for the locations with five cities of your choice.
    • Modify the food field to make it automatically place a value in that field based on the location selected.
    • The values for the food field will be 70 when the first location is selected and 80 when the second location is selected.
    • The food values will then increase by 5 for the remaining locations when selected.
    • Add to the car field to allow for three rental car companies to select from using a radio button.
