The first section discusses digital-to-digital conversion. Line
coding is used to convert digital data to a digital signal. Several
common schemes are discussed. The section also describes
block coding, which is used to create redundancy in the digital
data before they are encoded as a digital signal. Redundancy is
used as an inherent error detecting tool. The last topic in this
section discusses scrambling, a technique used for digital-to-
digital conversion in long-distance transmission.The second
section discusses analog-to-digital conversion. Pulse code
modulation is described as the main method used to sample an
analog signal. Delta modulation is used to improve the
efficiency of the pulse code modulation.

The increasing data rates in digital television networks increase the demands on data capacity of the current transmission channels. Through new standards, the capacity of existing channels is increased with new methods of error correction coding and modulation. In this work, Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes are implemented for their error correcting capability. LDPC is a linear error correcting code. These linear error correcting codes are used for transmitting a message over a noisy transmission channel. LDPC codes are finding increasing use in applications requiring reliable and highly efficient information transfer over noisy channels. These codes are capable of performing near to Shannon limit performance and have low decoding complexity. LDPC uses parity check matrix for its encoding and decoding purpose. The main advantage of the parity check matrix is that it helps in detecting and correcting errors which is a very important advantage against noisy channels. This work presents the design and implementation of a LDPC encoder for transmission of digital terrestrial television according to the Chinese DTMB standard. The system is written in Verilog and is implemented on FPGA. The whole work is then verified with the help of Matlab modelling.

In the world of technology is already integrated into the network must have a data transmission process. Sending and receiving data communications systems do not avoid mistakes. Packets of data sent from the server to the client computer always have an error in transmission. These shipments have leaks that occur due to changes in voltage, frequency or impact. One of the methods used to detect and correct errors in data transmission is the Hamming method. This method will check bit errors in delivery. Hamming is to do the process at fault detection, and then the error will be corrected so that the arrangement of the bits will go back to the bit sequence before the data is sent. With the application of this method, the data transmission process will avoid mistakes. Data will be saved to the destination.

The need for copyright protection, ownership verification, and other issues for digital data are getting more and more interest nowadays. Among the solutions for these issues, digital watermarking techniques are used. A range of watermarking methods has been projected. Compression plays a foremost role in the design of watermarking algorithms. For a digital watermarking method to be effective, it is vital that an embedded watermark should be robust against compression. JPEG2000 is a new standard for image compression and transmission. JPEG2000 offers both lossy and lossless compression. The projected approach is used to execute a robust watermarking algorithm to watermark JPEG2000 compressed and encrypted images. For encryption it uses RC6 block cipher. The method embeds watermark in the compressed- encrypted domain and extraction is done in the decrypted domain. The proposal also preserves the confidentiality of substance as the embedding is done on encrypted data. On the whole 3 watermarking schemes are used: Spread Spectrum, Scalar Costa Scheme Quantization Index Modulation, and Rational Dither Modulation.

ENG315 Professional Scenarios 1. Saban is a top performing industrial equipment salesperson for D2D. After three years of working with his best client, he receives a text message from Pat (his direct manager) assigning him to a completely different account. Pat has received complaints that Saban gets all of the good clients and is not a “team player.” Saban responds to the message and asks for a meeting with Pat to discuss this change. Pat responds with another text message that reads: “Decision final. Everyone needs to get a chance to work with the best accounts so it is fair. Come by the office and pick up your new files.” Moments later, Saban sends a text message to Karen, his regional manager and Pat’s boss. It simply reads, “We need to talk.” 2. Amber, Savannah, and Stephen work for Knowledge, Inc. (a consulting company). While on a conference call with Tim Rice Photography (an established client), the group discusses potential problems with a marketing campaign. Tim Rice, lead photographer and owner of Tim Rice Photography, is insistent the marketing is working and changes are not needed. Amber reaches over to put Tim on “Mute” but accidently pushes a different button. She immediately says to Savannah and Stephen that the marketing campaign is not working and that “…Tim should stick to taking pretty pictures.” Tim responds, “You know I can hear you, right?” 3. James shows up to work approximately five minutes late this morning, walks silently (but quickly) down the hallway and begins to punch in at the time clock located by the front desk. Sarah, the front desk manager, says, "Good morning, James," but James ignores her, punches in, and heads into the shop to his workplace. Sarah rolls her eyes, picks up the phone, and dials the on-duty manager to alert her that James just arrived and should be reaching his desk any moment. 4. Paul works for the website division of SuperMega retail company. He receives an email late Friday afternoon that explains a new computer will launch at the end of next June and it will be in high demand with limited stock. Also contained in the three-page-message is that customers will be able to preorder the item 30 days before launch according to the production company. Paul is asked to create a landing page for consumers who are interested in learning more about the product. By mistake, Paul sets up a preorder page for the product that afternoon (well in advance of the company authorized period) and late Friday evening consumers begin to preorder the product. Sharon, Vice President of Product Sales at SuperMega, learns of the error Saturday morning and calls Paul to arrange a meeting first thing Monday morning. Sharon explains to Paul on the phone that the company intends on canceling all of the preorders and Paul responds that the company should honor the preorders because it was not a consumer error. After a heated exchange, Paul hangs up on Sharon when she in.

ENG 272-0 Objective: The purpose of this essay is to make an analytical argument about connections across texts, time periods and cultures, and to situate this argument within the context of the existing critical discourse. You will need to select 3 primary texts to actively analyze in order to develop an argument of your own; you should make an argument about, not simply summarize, the primary texts.For the primary texts, choose one (1) work from each of the three (3) columns below. Prompt:Based on Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize winning book of 1961, To Kill A Mockingbird is set in small-town Alabama, 1932. Atticus Finch (played by Gregory Peck) is a lawyer and a widower with two young children, Jem and Scout. Atticus Finch is currently defending Tom Robinson, a black man accused of raping a white woman. Meanwhile, Jem and Scout are intrigued by their neighbors, the Radley’s, and the mysterious, seldom-seen Boo Radley in particular. The story features a number of “mockingbirds”—those who are scorned by society unfairly, and makes timeless insights about the nature of humanity and what it means to be human. Option 1:Reflect on the film’s assertions, and then construct a thesis and write an essay that directly cites from a minimum of three (3) different texts considered in in this class, a minimum of one from each of the three columns below.

ENG 403/4A Hamlet Final Assessment DUE DATE: WEDNESDAY, 12/20, 11:30 PM At the end of the Hamlet unit, you will have two choices to earn 100 points. These choices replace the final essay test that was in the course originally. You can choose only ONE of the following options, and the due date remains the same. These activities will be graded just like the test would have been, meaning there is no chance to redo or revise the assignment. However, this will be taken into consideration when I grade them. No matter what option you choose, it must be completed in a Word document and labeled or titled so that it is clear to your teacher which option you chose. On your document, write it as a heading, like this: Your first and last name Date Name of the option you chose Models of each assignment can be found in class announcements. Option #1: RAFT A RAFT is a writing assignment that encourages you to uncover your own voice and formats for presenting your ideas about the content you are studying. In this design, you have a lot of freedom to choose what interests you. · R = Role of the writer: Who are you as the writer? · A = Audience: To whom are you writing? · F = Format: In what format are you writing? · T = Topic: What are you writing about? The process: 1. Use the chart below to choose two characters from the ROLE column. Your goal is to write in the voice (Role) of YOUR CHARACTER. 2. Using the knowledge and understanding that you have gained throughout the reading and viewing of Hamlet, choose a related Audience, Format, and Topic from the chart below. 3. As you craft your creative writing assignment, be sure the character’s personality and motivations are evident. For instance, you could choose Ophelia (role), Hamlet (audience), blog entry (format) and betrayal (theme). Then you will write a blog entry from Ophelia’s point of view with Hamlet as the intended audience focused on the theme of betrayal. 4. Next, repeat this process for a different role, audience, format and theme. 5. Please see the model below (pg. 8) to understand what to do. 6. If you are unsure of what a particular format is, the best thing to do is look up examples online. · YOU MUST CHOOSE TWO CHARACTERS FROM THE ROLE LIST AND COMPLETE TWO DIFFERENT RAFTS. THEY WILL BE WORTH 50 POINTS EACH AND MUST BE AT LEAST 200 WORDS EACH. · To clarify, this means two different roles, two different audiences, two different formats and two different themes. · You may use some words from the play, but if you do they MUST be exact and put in quotation marks. The goal, however, is to use your own words. No outside sources are to be used for this assignment. · You can choose to write about a particular scene or event, or the play as a whole. · You are in the voice of the character, so if you choose the role of Ophelia, then you will become her (first person POV) and reflect her personality and motivations in your writing.

Hesiod claimed he was inspired by the Muses to become a poet after they appeared to him on Mount Helicon. His poetry was partly an account of heroes and divinities, such as the Muses themselves, and included praise of kings. Theogony “the generation (or birth) of the gods” The Theogony concerns the origins of the world (cosmogony) and of the gods (theogony), beginning with Chaos, Gaia, and Eros, and shows a special interest in genealogy. The creation myth in Hesiod has long been held to have Eastern influences, such as the Hittite Song of Kumarbi and the Babylonian Enuma Elis. This cultural crossover would have occurred in the eighth and ninth century Greek trading colonies such as Al Mina in North Syria. Chaos, Gaia, and Eros Chaos (Greek χάος khaos) refers to the formless or void state preceding the creation of the universe or cosmos in the Greek creation myths, more specifically the initial.

ENG 315: Professional Communication Week 4 Discussion: Delivering Bad News Messages Delivering Bad News Messages In the Chapter 7 reading, you learned about inductive and deductive methods of reasoning and communication. Share an example of a "bad news message" either from the text or from an online article you've seen (provide a link, please, if you choose the latter option). Explain whether you believe inductive OR deductive reasoning would be more effective to share that bad news with others and why. After you have responded to this starter thread, don't forget to reply to at least one classmate to meet the minimum posting frequency requirement. Student Response: Erica Collins RE: Week 4 Discussion: Delivering Bad News Messages "They never gave me a fair chance," That's unfair," "This just can't be." In this case I will have to go with inductive reasoning after reviewing in some ways they are so similar to one another. Inductive reasoning is more based on uncertainty and deductive reasoning is more factual. In this case the conversation is more of an assumption. I would think deductive would be more effective to share because deductive focus more on facts. Deductive Reasoning is the basic form of valid reasoning in my words accurate information that can be proven. Inductive reasoning is the premises in which the premises are viewed as supplying some evidence for truth. In my words this seems more of an opinion until proven. Tom me they are similar you have to really read to understand the difference of inductive and deductive reasoning.

ENG 202: Questions about Point of View in Ursula K. Le Guin’s “The Wife’s Story” (284-287), Alice Walker’s “Olive Oil” and Meron Hadero’s “The Suitcase” (both in folder) 7 questions: 50 points total Read everything carefully. This is designed to provide a learning experience. Writers often use one of these three types of narration: First-person narration uses “I” because “one character is telling the story from [his/her] point of view.” In other words, we step into the skin of this character and move through the story seeing everything through his/her eyes alone. To best illustrate first-person narration, choose parts of the story that show the character revealing intimate thoughts/feelings, something we can see only by having access to his/her heart & mind. This is a useful point of view to show a character’s change of heart, to trick a reader, and/or to make the reader realize that s/he understands more than the narrator does. Third-person omniscient narration: “The narrator sees into the minds of any or all of the characters, moving when necessary from one to another.” In other words, the narrator is god-like (all-knowing) with the ability to report on the thoughts of multiple characters. To best illustrate omniscient third-person narration, choose parts of the story that show characters’ private thoughts/feelings revealed only to us, not the others. This can be a very satisfying point of view because we know what is on many or all characters' minds and do not have to guess. This is a useful point of view to show how events impact characters in the story. Third-person limited narration “reduces the narrator’s scope to a single character.” In other words, the narrator does not know all but is rather limited to the inner thoughts of one character; however, this narrator can also objectively report on the environment surrounding this character. To best illustrate third-person limited, choose parts of the story that illustrate this character’s thoughts/feelings that are only revealed to us, not to the others; additionally, choose parts of the story that show objective reporting of events. This is a useful point of view for stories that highlight a dynamic between a character and the world. Each story this week uses a different type of narration. “The Wife’s Story” uses first-person narration: the story is told from the point of view of the wife. 1) Quote a part of the story that proves it is written in first-person narration. To earn full points, choose wisely. To best illustrate first-person narration, choose a part of the story that shows the wife revealing an intimate thought/feeling, something we can see only by having access to her heart/mind. To earn full points, achieve correct integration, punctuation, and citation by using the format below. (8 points) Highlighting is just for lesson clarity.

Many people believe that the dramatic rise in college tuition is the main cause of inaccessibility to college. However, parental education backgrounds and their influence on children, admission selectivity categories in universities, unawareness of student aid opportunities, and coping with personal and social challenges are all having effects on a person’s option regarding their enrollment in colleges. Several negative consequences may occur if tertiary education is considered as a right such as negligence of studies and decrement in pass rate. While it is true that higher educational institutes admit students based on certain criteria, one could argue that it is unfair that universities prefer the wealthy, and those who are academically excellent. Summary sentences (2 to 3) Student Thesis: 2 focus points + opinion/position phrases (one positive, one negative) Firstly, this article overlooked the fact that financial aid is not available for everyone and student loans have to be paid back. The author suggested that if university fees are not affordable, students can apply for academic grants and loans. However, scholarships and academic awards are distributed on a highly competitive basis, and therefore, only students who meet the eligibility requirements can benefit from them. Student financial aid does not cover all fees as well, and students awarded grants have to find other sources of financial aid to cover university fees and living costs. Many universities have a limited number or do not offer merit-scholarships at all, making it difficult for low-income students to be enrolled in their institution. Moreover, student loans usually carry interests that will keep increasing until repaid, resulting in large numbers of fresh graduates getting into debts. Topic sentence: 1st focu.

ENG 130- Literature and Comp Literary Response for Setting as a Device Essay ENG 130: Literary Response for Setting Sources: Choose one of the stories that you read in Unit 2/Setting Unit  “To Build a Fire” by Jack London  “The Storm” by Kate Chopin  “This is What It Means to Say Phoenix, Arizona” by Alexie  “The Cask of Amontillado” by Edgar Allan Poe Prompt (What are you writing about?): How does Setting affect/contribute to the plot of your chosen story? Note: Remember that Setting is not only the place in which a story occurs. It is also mood, weather, time, and atmosphere. These things drive other parts of the story. How to get started:  Choose a story from this unit and discern all the elements of the Setting.  Decide in what three ways the setting contributes to the plot of your chosen story.  Formulate a thesis about setting and these three areas. Mini lesson on thesis statements:  If you were writing about Star Wars, a sample thesis might read: The setting in the Star Wars movies contributes to the desperateness of the Resistance forces, provides a vast space for action and conflicts to occur, focuses on how advances will affect society. Broken down, this thesis would read: The Setting in the Star Wars movies: a. contributes to the desperateness of the Resistance forces (write a supporting section with text examples) b. provides a vast space for action and conflicts to occur, focuses on how advances will affect society (write a supporting section with text examples) c. focuses on how advances will affect society (write a supporting section with text examples)  Ask yourself, what is the setting of my story and how does it affect the plot in the story? For example, it is apparent that in London’s “To Build a Fire,” you would devote a supporting section to how the weather conditions drive both the conflict and the character’s actions.  After you have made connections to the three areas that setting affects, then form your thesis. Here is a template for your thesis: The Setting in author’s name and title of the story, contributes to first way in which the setting affects the story, second way in which setting affects the story, third way in which setting affects the story. Instructions:  Read through all of the instructions of this assignment.  Read all of the unit resources.  Select one of the short stories to write about.  Your audience for this essay is people who have read the stories.  Your essay prompt is: How does Setting affect/contribute to the plot of your chosen story?  Your essay will have the following components: o A title page o An Introduction o A thesis at the end of the introduction that clearly states how setting affects the story o Supporting sections that defend your thesis/focus of the essay o Text support with properly cited in-text citations o A concluding paragraph o A re.
