This week we will discuss copyright. In your post, explain these topics: What is copyright. What does it protect? When does an author or creator gain copyright privileges? If you want to use a copyrighted work for commercial purposes, what do you need to do or have? (Think about permissions and citations.) Reply to two of your classmates’ posts.  Cite your research references, including the reference for the photo.

Assignment Question :   Design and write an algorithm to find all the common elements in two sorted lists of numbers. For example, for the lists 2, 5, 5, 5 and 2, 2, 3, 5, 5, 7, the output should be 2, 5, 5. What is the maximum number of comparisons your algorithm makes if the lengths of the two given lists are m and n, respectively?

 After completing the reading this week, we reflect on a few key concepts this week:

1. Organizational performance is the fifth aspect of the model, reflect on the question, do certain leadership behaviors improve and sustain performance at the individual, group, and organizational level?  Please explain your response.
2. There were two types of innovation addressed this week (product and process innovation), please note your own personal definition of these concepts and offer an example of both.

Assignment Interpersonal Communication

assignment in the attached picture please check the picture

You are a digital forensics intern at Azorian Computer Forensics, a privately owned forensics investigations and data recovery firm in the Denver, Colorado area.

Your company creates a quarterly newsletter for its clients, many of which are law enforcement agencies, law firms, corporations, and insurance companies. It’s a Tuesday morning and you are sitting in a meeting with the team that produces the newsletter. While everyone is discussing which new section could be added to the newsletter, the senior editor turns to you and asks for your opinion. This is your chance to come up with a brilliant idea! You suggest that the company includes an insert containing contact information for and brief descriptions of government agencies to which computer crimes should be reported. The information would be very helpful to clients and could increase readership. She likes your idea and asks you to create the document. The document should include contact information for:

The local police department

The county sheriff’s office

The state police agency

Because the upcoming newsletter issue has several articles on cybercrime in particular, your document should also include the federal investigative law enforcement agencies that handle the following types of Internet-based crime:

Internet fraud and spam

Internet harassment

Create the document, presenting the local, county, and state contact information in one table and the Internet-based crime federal agency information in a second table.

Assignment Details

Part 1

For many thousands of years, the primary method of communication was for people to physically gather together to share ideas and discuss concerns. In today’s technology driven world, huge numbers of people gather together without ever directly seeing each other. This is done through social media. Social media is known to produce great changes on how individuals and communities communicate and perceive each other.

Complete the following in a minimum 1-page response:

1. Briefly, define social media such as Google+®, Twitter®, Pinterest®, LinkedIn®, and Facebook® and how it differs from traditional media. In addition, how has social media impacted the workplace?
2. Given the increased prevalence of social media, how has your personal perspective of multiculturalism and diversity been impacted?
3. Select an organization you belong to. How do you think your perspective has impacted that organization? How do you feel that others in the organization have been impacted?

Part 2

As an information technology professional, you are faced with opposing perspectives on ethical issues in your daily work. Research opposing perspectives on ethical issues faced in the Information Technology field as it pertains to networking.

• Assignment Requirements: Integration: One Piece of a Large Puzzle. 

Refer back to the Marseille Urban Planning Project article you read in the Week 1 Content folder within your course Documents and Resources. In this article, you can visually see how multiple departments came together using Esri’s CityEngine tool to create and implement an urban plan to restructure a city within a matter of months.

To complete this assignment, choose a large public works project, such as the construction of a new high school. For the public works project you can select any project – this could be a local project or a hypothetical situation (adding a city park, expanding a freeway, creating more housing, building a new commercial complex, adding a neighborhood school, building out a train system, etc.). 

Write a two page paper, using the newest APA formatting edition within a Microsoft Word Document, that identifies two phases that can be independent projects. Discuss each phase and discuss how each phase is an independent project and what makes them independent projects.  Specifically, state how each project meets the definition of a project, and describe the product, service, or result of each project, and why it is temporary.

What’s simple random sampling? Is it possible to sample data instances using a distribution different from the uniform distribution? If so, give an example of a probability distribution of the data instances that is different from uniform (i.e., equal probability).

All discussions should contain at least one reference (and matching in-text citation in APA format).

Specification

Introduction

A suitable system to implement. This system must be a data processing system that concerns the creation, storage, management, processing and visualising of a set of data with which you are currently involved. 

This implementation MUST be undertaken using the Python 3 programming language (as per the work you have done in your learning sessions).

Part 1 – System Build

Provide a concise written description of your selected data processing system (guideline word count 500 words). This can include diagrams or images if this is required to best support your description. Also, include the user stories that describe the functionality of the system. Whilst this will not directly accrue any marks, it is required to establish if your software implementation satisfies the requirements of the system.

Produce a Python 3 implementation of your chosen system. This must provide the data processing and visualisation relevant to your system and provide a graphical user interface (GUI) to this processing and visualisation.

You must utilise object-oriented programming where appropriate and structure your solution using the module and package approach adopted by good idiomatic Python 3 implementations (also referred to as being Pythonic). It is expected that the structure of your submitted Python project will also reflect this

structure, utilising a main project folder (with any necessary sub-folders) and appropriate Python 3 script files.

You are also expected to provide full documentation of the details of your implementation by including appropriate code comments within your Python 3 script files.

Part 2 – Automated Testing

Provide a set of automated unit tests (using a suitable Python 3 automated testing  framework  such  as  the  unittest module)  that  exercise  and demonstrate the correct functionality for 4 separate methods taken from a class (or classes) that is involved with part of the data processing in your system. You can choose methods related to any of the CRUD functions. Do not include any method which would require testing of the GUI (this is beyond what was included as part of your learning during the module). Ensure you fully document your test code using appropriate code commenting.

Your automated unit tests must be provided within the Python project in a way that properly separates these tests from the production version of your implementation. Also, the automated unit tests must be able to be run from within the PyCharm Community Edition IDE you have worked with in your learning sessions, using the automated unit testing integration offered by this IDE.

Part 3 – System Function Traceability Report

Produce a report that traces the functionality provided in your software implementation back to the specific requirement for that function in your system description. This must be done by mapping the user stories that represent your system requirements to the various classes and methods of those classes that you have implemented in your software solution.

You must also provide for each trace back a short explanation as to how the mapped class and /or method directly contributes to satisfying the “So that…” aspect of the user story involved.

A recommended approach here is to tabulate your mappings so they can be easily traced.

Part 4 – Reflective Report

You are to write a short reflective report (guideline word count 500 words) focussing on one future trend in computing and considering how new ideas and theories could be applied in the application domain you have developed for this assignment.

You should consider both the potential benefits of the new ideas as well as the inherent complexities and present your reasoned evaluation and conclusions regarding the application of those new ideas within your chosen domain.

If your application is work related, you could conclude your reflective evaluation with recommendations relevant to your employer regarding the adoption, or otherwise, of new advanced computing techniques.

For this reflective report you could consider any one of the following topics or chose any other current computing topic:

  Big Data / Data mining or analytics / Data visualisation

  Artificial Intelligence / Machine learning

  Robotics and Social Interaction

  Virtual or Augmented reality

  Security within Cloud computing

  The internet of things (IoT)

  Autonomous Transportation

  Wearable devices and sensors

You are not expected to reference research papers or present a very technical explanation of the topic – rather you are expected to focus on the advantages and complexities of applying the theory in your application area.

You should start your reflective report with a short description of your chosen topic (250 words or thereabouts would be appropriate for this) before presenting your evaluation of its application.

Citations of web sources for this is perfectly fine but your sources must be correctly cited and a reference list provided (as per the Harvard referencing scheme).

Quotations should be kept to a very minimum and 90% of the words should be your own.

Deliverables

A zipped archive of your main Python project folder which must include all relevant files need to both run your software implementation and run the automated unit tests. Also, include in this archive the word processed document that contains the concise description of the system and the associated user stories  (as  required in  Part  1).  Any details of  further  instructions  or  any additional Python 3 libraries (beyond those in the standard Python 3 installation) must also be provided in a  readme.txt file (to ensure your software implementation can be run). Provide this archive as a single zip file. This archive will be used when you provide your demonstration of your system.

A single word processed document that contains the traceability and reflective reports required for the Part 3 and Part 4 tasks. Make sure this document is

clearly organised into titled sections and that any diagrams and images are referenced with a figure number. Ensure it is evident which of these sections relates to which assessment task to avoid any ambiguity when your work is considered during marking. 

Also, ensure you provide any referenced work within this document (as per the normal Harvard referencing scheme).
