People always argue that we need to discover the “missing link” in the human evolutionary past. The non-scientific term “missing link,” typically refers to a species that is transitional. In our case, this argument is typically rooted in an idea that there must be on specimen/individual that is a perfect cross between humans and apes. Given what we have talked about so far this semester is there one species/human ancestor that could be the missing link? Or is there a missing link at all? Why or why not? Consider the different species we have been examining this semester. Discuss morphology or behavior among the hominins in your re

Analyze the factors that business managers must consider when determining if wireless and mobile devices are appropriate in their business environment.

Before supporting mobile and wireless devices, organizations need to ensure that they have analyzed the potential security and implementation issues associated with those devices. Additionally, they need to ensure that they have taken the proper precautions and implemented the proper security controls to mitigate vulnerabilities. Read the NIST Draft SP 800-164, Guidelines on Hardware-Rooted Security in Mobile Devices, located at http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/drafts/800-164/sp800_164_draft.pdf.

Architectural Computation and Design.

The thesis paper must be original research with a narrow focus (not a large book topic).The topic for this paper is Architectural Computation and Design.

I have a draft; please see attachment for my draft. The paper needs to rewrite since professor is not happy with my draft because the topic is too general. The paper needs to have a thesis statement – something arguable, that you’re going to “prove” (although research is a part of that). The more specific = the better.
Please read all the feedbacks on my outline and draft, and refine the thesis paper according to the comments.

Introduction: Thesis Position
Body: Arguments
The introduction needs to be specific: what is your thesis position that you are trying to address?
The body is to have ideas that support the thesis statement and is basically the arguments for the paper. I have already layout the structure for the body in my outline. Please follow the ideas in my outline.

Important Notes:
1. If your idea isn’t focused it’s easy to go well over this, writing in circles. Don’t do that. The thesis paper needs to be specific on one small area and persuade your thesis statement in the body paragraph.

2. Give credit where it is due and cite all direct quotes. But cobbling together properly cited quotes does not a paper make: at least 80-90% should be your original words. Use footnotes to accomplish this or to expand on any “sidebar” ideas.

3. You can list a few figures or charts to clarify your ideas (figure 1, figure 2, figure 3 and so on) at the end of the paper. When you are referring to a figure in the body paragraph, you can put (see figure 1), for example. The idea is very clear this way (use illustrations to add interest and make points). But, make sure you give source credit to all illustrations, even if you made things yourself.

4. Fourth, the body needs a stronger standpoint in order to persuade the reader that your thesis statement is valid (see my outline for ideas). The thesis statement need some work (please see my draft), as stated in the introduction: “If the computations and design is perfect to implement the construction of building according to requirement, the people belonging to that particular building will feel much relax and comfort to live in it and this combination of computations and design can provide the people of that building a soothing living environment.” The paper needs to argue why the thesis statement is valid in the body paragraph (stronger arguments but focus). Don’t go far beyond the topic.

The requirements for the paper are below. The thesis needs to refine and narrow down to only focus or explore on a specific idea in depth in order to have a concrete argument that someone could agree or disagree with. You can think this as a persuasive paper to argue that the thesis is valid, instead of research paper, although it requires some research. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks

In order to have some knowledge to write this paper, I have attached some course readings that are related to this paper (please see attachments).

Investigate and based on rotor momentum/ actuator disk theory, what is the theoretical velocity magnitude, w far downstream in the wake of the rotor.

This is an open-ended problem, as such there is no single proper way to devise a solution. The objective is to allow you to think critically and research ideas for a potential way to solve the problem. Credit will be given on your effort and reasoning behind your solution. Problem Statement Suppose you are asked to measure the wind velocity, w (in two components along the x and y directions; u and v respectively) far downstream in the wake of a hovering helicopter rotor where the wind changes minimal direction at a maximum frequency of 10 Hz. Suppose that the mean induced velocity (vi) remains nearly constant at 15 m/s at the plane of the rotor. Questions 1. Investigate and based on rotor momentum/ actuator disk theory, what is the theoretical velocity magnitude, w far downstream in the wake of the rotor? 2. Suppose you are asked to measure the velocity components u and v using inexpensive electronic components. How might you design/ build a simple wind sensor(s) that could measure the wind velocity and direction? Use sketches to present your ideas, you can assume that you can calibrate your chosen sensor/ actuator voltage output to a physical measured variable. 3. If your wind velocity is changing direction at a maximum frequency of 10 Hz, what is the minimum frequency that you should sample your wind measurement in order to properly capture/ reproduce the wind fluctuations?

Identified a practical solution or recommendation exhibiting a measured—but acceptable—level of risk.

Chapter 5: Summary, Recommendations, and Conclusion Overview: You will summarize the research and present a series of recommendations based on the SWOT analysis findings. Section I: Summary offers a restatement of your research. You will remind the audience of the thesis developed in Chapter 2 and discuss the idea based on the research findings. Recall that one of our example thesis statements was, “While the XYZ Company has enjoyed some internal progress, continued weaknesses in its strategic planning function will limit its ability to meet competitive threats and lead to a significant loss of profit.” Based on this thesis, a summary at this point might look something like this: This paper researched the possibility that the XYZ Company was exhibiting a weakness in its strategic planning functions, making it vulnerable to threats in the industry’s competitive environment. This research has demonstrated that at least three competitors have entered the marketplace and are operating successfully in the environment while XYZ’s market share is falling. The research underscores the fact that XYZ Company lacks timely strategic planning, is failing to capture opportunities in the marketplace, and is ignoring threats in the competitive environment. Without a concerted effort to improve its strategic planning function to address these threats, the company will not achieve a competitive advantage in the future. Section II: Recommendations, you will offer your recommendation to resolve the company’s problems. Format the recommendations as an action plan with appropriate time schedule for each suggestion you will implement. As the Hill & Jones text suggests, they should extend logically from your overall discussions and remain consistent with the SWOT analysis. Remember to: • Recall any recommendations you began to uncover in earlier Chapters • Refer again to the organization’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats and build upon the summary statement to offer alternatives to the predictions • Specifically explore the company’s ability to address external threats without changes. If you decide it cannot, recommend how it should change business level strategies to succeed and achieve profitability goals. • In addition, investigate the company’s ability to address internal weaknesses without changes. If you decide it cannot, recommend the changes necessary to succeed and achieve profitability. As summarized in the Hill & Jones text, recommendations usually center on issues such as changing functional, business, or corporate strategies. They could also focus on changing organizational structure and control to improve performance. Other examples include recommendations that address questions such as: • Should the company increase R & D spending? If so, how will your company derive the funding? • Should the company divest business divisions? • Should the company change from unrelated to related diversification? • Should the company improve the integration between divisions? • Should the company change the organizational structure to adopt a new business strategy? How soon? In each of these considerations, be specific. For example, if you suggest that the company should change its business strategy, explain exactly which new strategy it should adopt, why it should adopt it, how it will help, and when the implementation occurs on the timeline. At this point, make sure you discuss funding for any of these changes. Remember, you are presenting to a CEO or the board so you must offer a convincing, practical argument for the changes. Simply stating, “we must increase R&D spending to retain a competitive advantage” is an obvious conclusion that the CEO already understands and likely would have implemented had the funding been available. Try to offer an innovative solution that also addresses internal funding (efficiency improvement, force reduction, etc.). This will convince your CEO that you have identified a practical solution or recommendation exhibiting a measured—but acceptable—level of risk. Section III: Conclusions in the last several paragraphs of the chapter. These final statements should briefly review the research methods, describe the results of the analysis, and offer a personal opinion regarding the company’s viability. In other words—based on your knowledge of the company’s leadership—do you believe the business is likely to adopt your recommendations for achieving future success? Support your claims and opinions here as well.

banks” using the approach described

Discuss “stress testing banks” using the approach.

Executive Summary

Your goal is to build a DSS that can be used for “stress testing banks” using the approach described in Case 7 of your textbook (see p. 134). After you build the DSS, you will subject a bank to 4 different macroeconomic scenarios. The results of this stress test have to be interpreted in order to decide whether a particular bank is ready for the 4 scenarios or not.

Deliverables

1. Please submit an Excel work sheet with the following tabs:
a. Tab 1 named “Stress Test DSS”. This tab should contain the DSS model described in Case 7 of your textbook (see p. 134). You can use the “skeleton file” uploaded with this assignment to get started.
b. Tab 2 named “Scenario Summary”. This tab should contain summaries of the 4 scenarios (see p. 14). This tab should also contain a short (a few sentences) interpretation of the results of the four scenarios together with your overall recommendation or conclusion given those results. You may use a chart to aid
