What aspects of today\'s information economy have influenced the importance of building partnerships? Solution A revolution in information and communications technology is transforming the way we live and work. Information Communication Technoloy is becoming the largest distribution platform of providing public and private services to millions of people in rural and poor areas. It is changing the way we deliver education and business services, design buildings and cities, and manufacture engines and cars. Market information, financial services, education and health services had largely been unavailable in those areas in the past due to lack of connectivity of any kind. Increases productivity and makes the market work more efficiently reaching population with low levels of income and literacy. A recognisable new dynamic force – the information economy – has emerged, and is transforming every other sector. The principles of business strategy are being transformed from focusing on physical assets and economies of scale to the drivers of success which reside in connectivity and intangibles. Businesses need to develop and manage complex ecologies or organizations around themselves so as to succeed. Barriers between companies, which used to be solid and absolute, are now permeable. Through virtual integration, the walls between enterprises crumble. Cyber security underpins the information economy. Without it businesses and consumers would not have the trust and confidence to use the internet and other digital technologies. People and businesses expect the right information to be available, all the time, and anywhere. Through trends such as cloud computing, software services and data are hosted away from users but are accessible on demand, any place or time.

Technology–specifically ICT–has played a central role in the 21st century’s revolution, especially in young people’s rise to prominence on a global scale. It has revolutionized the way we learn, play, work and transact businesses. ICT has helped young people to mobilize, collaborate and given them a voice where there was none before. It has brought them together in response to social concerns and has connected them across vast geo-political barriers, and this is a great opportunity that should be annexed for enterprise development. ICT, being a complimentary, facilitating and versatile technology has a potential for improved operational effectiveness and efficiency in all sectors; it also has the potential for enterprise development; and being an evolving technology, the future depends on ICT. Knowing this, then one must try to grasp what impact ICT will have on sustainable development (SD) and how we may formulate sustainability in ICT solutions.

Social networks and digital devices are being used to engage government, businesses and civil society, as well as friends and family. People are using mobile, interactive tools to determine who to trust, here to go and what to buy. At the same time, businesses are undertaking their own digital transformations, rethinking what customers value most and creating operating models that take advantage of what’s newly possible for competitive differentiation. The challenge for business is how fast and how far to go down the road to the eBusiness evolution.

The promise of 5G has captured the attention of business leaders, policy makers, and the media. But how much of that promise is likely to be realized anytime soon? With the first true high-band 5G networks already live, we set out to take a realistic view of how and where connectivity could be deployed and what it can enable over the next 10 years. But 5G is not appearing in isolation. This research takes a more expansive view of connectivity to include other technologies, ranging from fiber and satellites to Wi-Fi and short-range technologies. Despite the hype about remote surgery and Star Trek–style holodecks in everyone’s living rooms, the future is not solely happening on the frontier. Existing connectivity technologies are expanding and evolving, with new standards that boost network performance—and they are much less capital-intensive. We have identified an enormous array of use cases that can run on this type of upgraded backbone. Companies do not have to wait for high-band 5G to implement new systems and go after the resulting productivity gains. To illustrate what is possible, this research looks at how connectivity could be deployed in mobility, healthcare, manufacturing, and retail. The use cases we identified in these four commercial domains alone could boost global GDP by $1.2 trillion to $2 trillion by 2030. This implies that the value at stake will ultimately run trillions of dollars higher across the entire global economy.

why is the idea of a standard network protocol such as the OSI reference model important ? what are the advantages and disadvantages of developing a single standard protocol ? Solution The idea of standard network protocol such as the OSI reference model is important as OSI reference model and TCP/IP are the backbone for today\'s computer systems and architecture. It allows communication between local area networks. Network protocols such as TCP/IP enable client server computing and assists in information sharing across the world. It has made the world a global village by providing an information super highway and is as important for business and commerce as roads, railways and airlines. Standard protocol allows different departments in the companies to share information and resources. Advantages of OSI reference model: Advantages of single standard protocol: Open standards are industry-wide protocol definitions that are not tied with a specific manufacturer company. With open standard protocols, we can use equipment from any vendor to build our network. As long as the equipment implements the standard protocols, it should be able to coexist on the same network. With open standard protocols, networks can consist of many different computing platforms running entirely different software. Protocols are implemented on a network in several ways. Some are integrated into the operating system. Others are device drivers, such as the driver for a particular network interface adapter supplied by its manufacturer. Disadvantages of developing a single standard protocol: 1. If there are problems in standard protocols, all the systems implementing them will be affected. 2. All companies and manufactures will need to follow the standards and it will get harder to innovate and create new standards which is orthogonal to the current standard..

Which of the following potential problems need not be considered when eliminating cases with missing values on one or more variables: a. Many cases may be lost b. The correlation between the predictor and the criterion variables may be inflated. c. The eliminated cases may be systematically different from the retained cases. d. none of the above--all need to be considered. Solution Answer option D Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) is a general linear model which blends ANOVA and regression. ANCOVA evaluates whether population means of a dependent variable (DV) are equal across levels of a categorical independent variable (IV) often called a treatment, while statistically controlling for the effects of other continuous variables that are not of primary interest, known as covariates (CV) or nuisance variables. Mathematically, ANCOVA decomposes the variance in the DV into variance explained by the CV(s), variance explained by the categorical IV, and residual variance. Intuitively, ANCOVA can be thought of as \'adjusting\' the DV by the group means of the CV(s).

What is the purpose of database administration? 2. What is the purpose of concurrency control? 3. Give an different example of the lost update problem in Lecture slide (Chapter 6-15) 4. Explain two-phase locking. 5. Explain the meaning of the expression of ACID transaction. Solution 1. What is the purpose of database administration? Data administration is the concept of managing people and their rights on how to access the data and to which level of granularity is the different people/designations are allowed to access the data base. Its just authorizing and de-authorizing people on how to access the data. 2. Purpose of concurrency control? Concurrency control is allowing more than one transaction to access the object in a safe and secure way such that the database is consistent at the end of multiple transactions. If concurrency control not applied properly, either the transactions should be performed serially, or the concurrent transactions may make the database inconsistent. 3. Give an different example of the lost update problem in Lecture slide (Chapter 6-15) Lost update is the concept of one update done by a transaction is lost, just because the data is read by other transaction before the update, and is written after the update. Consider a scenario: T1: Read A (Assume A = 50) T2: Read A (Assume A = 50) T2: Update A (Assume A is increased by 10) T2: Write A (Now A = 60) T1: Update A (Assume A is decreased by 10 ) T1: Write A (Now A = 40) Here the update done by Transaction T2 is lost..

What factors do you think make them excellent project reports? write in your own words Solution 1) Structure - A good report has a proper style and structure. Most businesses prefer the top- down approach that entails stating the main point or the gist of the point first and then reinforcing or substantiating the point made. 2) Substance - The report needs to cover the details of the project comprehensively, including all the big risks and issues that affect the project and solutions for the same. 3) Table of Contents - Large reports, usually more than four pages\' length or containing many subsections, need to include a table of contents. Incorporation of a table of contents provides a “top down” gist of the report, allowing the reader to orient himself or read selectively from the report. 4) Content Heavy Table - Content heavy titles support the “top-down” approach with the title being the main point and the text that follows the explanation of the point. The best headings makes the text that follows superfluous. 5) Language and Style - A critical aspect of good project report writing is the use of simple and easy-to-understand language free from spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes. Even minor spelling and punctuation mistakes can change the entire meaning of sentences and highlight the project promoters in poor light. 6) Lists, Tables, Figures, and Graphs - Such items highlight key points of emphasis, remove clutter, and make the report structure easy to read and visually appealing. Bulleted lists find use to highlight to-do items or specific actions. Figures, graphs, and tables make for powerful tools to present ideas, make comparisons, or summarize points in a way that captures and retains interest. Including all such information in descriptive sentences make the project report too lengthy and cumbersome 7) Appendices - Lengthy project reports require an appendix to place technical details, background material such as experts from previous studies, lists of supporting programs, raw data, derivative and analytical expressions, and similar material. Inclusion of such items along with the main text interrupts the flow nd makes it difficult for the reader who wants to make a quick initial reading and go into the details at a later stage. 8) References and Citations A references section becomes mandatory if the report contains results from books or articles. The best practice is to cite sources in the main text, such as (Harvey, 1999), and provide the full citation in the references section. Adherence to standard style guidelines such as the APA Style, MLA Style, Chicago Style, or Harvard Style lends additional credibility to the project report. 9) Proofreading - Pople ignore is proofreading the project report before submission. This is a mistake! Proofreading can capture inadvertent errors that are simple to correct but costly if not caught. 10) Appearance - Another factor that many people ignore is ensuring the tidiness and appearan.

This week, we are going to work together as a class to assist the Lone Star Center for Disease Control. They have identified a closed population of 10, 000 individuals, where a particularly nasty strain of flu virus has started to spread. What we know about this particular virus: It spreads at a rate that is jointly proportional to both the number of infected individuals and then number of uninfected individuals. When 1, 000 individuals are infected, the rate at which individuals are becoming infected is 500 individuals per day. There are currently 200 individuals infected. The LSCDC has determined that it is critical for relief efforts that they know how long it will take, based upon available information, for 90% of the population to become infected with the virus. You are not required to solve this entire problem on your own. Post at least the equivalent of 50 words that contributes to us solving this together throughout the course of the week. Solution The performative installation \'Light, Sweet, Cold, Dark, Crude - LSCDC\' is a series of audio- visual microevents, process-oriented and informal in nature.

Take a position on this statement: The media represent realistic images of Arabs. Support your views with one or two reasons and / or examples. (Cite any sources you referenced.) take a position on this statement: The media represent realistic images of Arabs. Support your views with one or two reasons and / or examples. (Cite any sources you referenced.) Solution In my opinion, media does not represent realistic images of Arabs. Recently, the Arab American National Museum and the National Network for Arab American Communities partnered with the National Voices Project (NVP) to investigate, among other things, media bias against racial, ethnic, and religious groups. According to the survey, respondents agree that there is a “persistent negative media bias” against Muslims and Arabs/Arab Americans. Nearly 50% of adults believe there is a persistent negative media bias against Muslims and 44% believe the same of Arabs/Arab Americans. Media especially film media consistently commnicates negative image of Arabs and Muslims. In all terrorist based movies, it is shown that villain belongs to these communities and hero is either a Hindu or a Christian. Although survey respondents did feel that media bias against African Americans (40%) and Jewish people (23%) remains a problem, it is clear that Muslims and Arabs are currently in the (negative) spotlight. The history of stereotyping and media bias in the United States follows a clear trajectory: media bias increases when a specific ethnic, religious, or racial group is seen as a threat to national security (economic or otherwise). For example, Hispanics/Latinos have long been the focus of persistent negative media bias. Recent popular and political discourses on immigration portray “illegal” immigrants from Latino countries as a threat to the economy and safety of the nation..

Relate selected early morphological developments in the ancestors of mammals to the demands of endothermic homeothermy. Solution Endothermic organisms are those organisms that maintain constant body temperature irrespective of the environmental temperature. This constant regulation of temperature (Homeothermy) is due to well developed metabolism in Mammales. Mitochondria play a crucial role in maintain Homeothermy Mammals evolved from a group of reptiles called the synapsids. A branch of the synapsids called the therapsids appeared by the middle of the Permian Period (275 to 225 million years ago). Over millions of years some of thetherapsids would evolve many features that would later be associated with mammals. The hallmarks of today\'s mammals are presence of hair, warm blood and milk-producing glands. - Some dinosaurs, such as the Stegosaurus and Dimetrodon, supported large plates or sails of skin, developed to function as solar panels, absorbing the sun\'s heat for quick mobilization. However, during the period of dinosaurs, some of the sail-backed pelycosaurs (which includes the Dimetrodon) lost their sails. It would be improbable that such an effective heating mechanism would be lost through evolution unless a more efficient method of heat control had evolved to replace it. It is therefore reasonable to supposed that the pelycosaurs and their successors, the therapsids, were to some degree endothermic. The therapsids, being only three feet long, would need some form of body insulation if it was to be effective. Thus, it is reasonable to conclude that some of these creatures were covered in hair, or fur..

Question VI. In 1976, Hozumi and Tonegawa published an elegant paper (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 73, 3628-3632, 1976) showing that a V gene and a C gene are miles apart in germline DNA (from mouse embryos), but next to each other in antibody-coding DNA (from a myeloma tumor). Subsequent experiments have demonstrated unequivocally that the immune system generates the antibody diversity by shuffling a few hundred genes to create countless permutations, in a process called V(D)J recombination. In this process, RAG enzymes work as a multi-subunit complex to induce cleavage of a double-stranded DNA molecule between the antigen receptor coding segment and a flanking recombination signal sequence (RSS). They do this in two steps. They initially introduce a ‘nick’ in the 5\' (upstream) end of the RSS heptamer (a conserved region of 7 nucleotides) that is adjacent to the coding sequence, leaving behind a 3\'-hydroxyl group at the coding end and a 5\'-phosphate group at the RSS end. The next step couples these chemical groups, binding the OH-group (on the coding end) to the PO4group (that is sitting between the RSS and the gene segment on the opposite strand). [Assess each subsequent statement (64-71) as either factually correct (= “true”) or incorrect (= “false”)]: 64. This is an important enzymatic step in a process known as somatic recombination, which is limited to macrophages. 65. This is an event of the mechanism of genetic recombination in the early stages of Ig and TCRs production. 66. This produces a 3\'-phosphorylated double-stranded break at the RSS and a covalently closed hairpin at the coding end. 67. This produces a 3\'-phosphorylated double-stranded break at the RSS and a non-covalently closed hairpin at the coding end. 68. This produces a 5\'-phosphorylated double-stranded break at the RSS and a covalently-closed hairpin at the coding end. 69. This produces a 5\'-phosphorylated double-stranded break at the RSS and a non-covalently closed hairpin at the coding end. 70. This is an event of the mechanism of genetic recombination in the late stages of immunoglobulin (Ig) and T-cell receptors (TCRs) production. 71. The V(D)J recombination events are involved in somatic hypermutations of the TCR and the binding of the OH-group (on the coding DNA end) to the PO4-group (that is sitting between the RSS and the gene segment on the opposite DNA strand) plays an important role in these hypermutations, which contribute to generating TCR diversity. Solution 64. False This process is not limited to macrophages and occurs in the B cells and T cells. 65. True This occurs in early stages of production of T cell receptors as well as immunoglobulins. 66. False No 3\'-phosphorylated double-stranded break is produced 67. False No 3\'-phosphorylated double-stranded break is produced 68. True Yes, 5\'-phosphorylated break is produced at the RSS as well as on the coding end a covalently closed- hairpin is formed. 69. False Non- covalently closed hairpin is not .

question - Jurassic Park (book and movie) proposed the concept of recreating dinosaurs based on knowing the sequence of dinosaur genomes. We now have the sequence of a Neanderthal (ancient hominid species that went extinct approximately 40,000 years ago) genome that is as accurate as the genome of a modern human. Therefore we may have the potential to recreate a Neanderthal – would you be interested in trying to recreate extinct species from genome sequences? question - Jurassic Park (book and movie) proposed the concept of recreating dinosaurs based on knowing the sequence of dinosaur genomes. We now have the sequence of a Neanderthal (ancient hominid species that went extinct approximately 40,000 years ago) genome that is as accurate as the genome of a modern human. Therefore we may have the potential to recreate a Neanderthal – would you be interested in trying to recreate extinct species from genome sequences? Solution The book and the movie Jurassic Park presented a masterpiece in sci-fi which ignited young minds with the spark of innovation and engineering in the field of genetic manipulation of organisms. The below are the points in response to the given question. (1) In my knowledge of science philosophy, creating and innovating in science is not (rather should not be) ONLY limited by theoretical or practical feasibilities but rather by ethics. Human is a social animal and is bound and institutionalized within its filial and geographical boundaries. Creating extinct races of humans, such as Neanderthals, will certainly pose complexities of maternal and paternal relations. Such an individual will face issues of emotional, psychological and cultural development. (2) Another aspect of looking at the given question would be related to the individual\'s acclimatization in the present earth environs. The Neanderthals used to inhabit the earth about 40000 ybp. Given the present time\'s phenomenon of global climate change and warming one might believe that the set of climatic parameters 40000 ybp were certainly and completely different that those of the present. Creating and bringing an individual of 40000 years before time would certainly be an act of pure science experiment without social and human perspectives kept in mind. Thirdly, the important aspect would be the place of the individual in the global food chain. The species in nature develop so as to fit in a crucial and defined role and place in energy transfer in ecological food web. In a nutshell, such created Neanderthals would be out of place and time in the current world scenarios. They will face climatic, cultural and ecological shock. Such individuals will be only a retrogressive science experiment with perhaps no contribution in research and development..

Prior to the development of anti-retroviral drugs, HIV infected patients with AIDS developed a high frequency of Kaposi’s sarcoma. Why? a. Compromised Immune surveillance promotes the spontaneous appearance of Kaposi’s sarcoma. b. High levels of HIV replication in AIDS patients cause Kaposi’s sarcoma. c. Latent EBV is reactivated and causes Kaposi’s sarcoma. d. Latent HHV-8 is reactivated and causes Kaposi’s sarcoma. Solution Kaposi\'s sarcoma (KS) is a tmors with tiny new blood vessels grow under the the skin and in membranes of your mouth, nostril, eyes, and anus. It can spread in lungs, liver, stomach, intestines, and lymph nodes, which are glands that help fight contamination. The failure of a tumor to develop as it does within the immunosuppressive host might be not due to a loss of tumor-cell killing within the suppressed host. Instead, the better degree of immune response , even to tumor-inhibitory ranges, probably offers less fine guide to tumor increase. Because humans with HIV have weakened immune systems, they may be much more likely to expand KS. Most severe instances happen when a person has AIDS, the HIV contamination, however skin lesions can also show up in advance. They\'re a signal for high immune system Both EBV and KSHV are latent residents in B lymphocytes and display sporadic reactivation in lymphoepithelial tissues including tonsils .Lytic reactivation of EBV or KSHV in epithelial cells of the nasopharynx is strongly inspired by the differentiation. In addition, XBP-1s, a made from the gene accountable for B cellular differentiation, turned into currently suggested to be one of the physiological stimuli that trigger the lytic switch of EBV and KSHV in latently infected B cells.With the aid of infection with human herpesvirus eight (HHV8), also known as Kaposi sarcoma-related herpesvirus (KSHV) or KS agent.

It is a non governmental organisation deals with human rights with 7 million members in the world. History: It was founded in London in July 1961 by English labour lawyer Peter Benenson. In 1967 Peter Benenson resigned after an independent inquiry did not support his claims that AI had been infiltrated by British agents. Later he claimed that the Central Intelligence Agency had become involved in Amnesty. In 1970 it was led by Seán MacBride and Martin Ennals. In 1980 Amnesty International was drawing more criticism from governments. The USSR alleged that Amnesty International conducted espionage, the Moroccan government denounced it as a defender of lawbreakers, and the Argentinian government banned Amnesty International\'s 1983 annual report. Throughout the 1990s, Amnesty International continued to grow, to a membership of over 7 million in over 150 countries and territories,[2]led by Senegalese Secretary General Pierre Sané. After 2000, Amnesty International\'s agenda turned to the challenges arising from globalisation and the re.
