Develop Project Schedule
Once you have an estimated duration for each activity in the network must determine (based on durations and sequence) whether the project can be realistically finished by the required completion time.
· In order to do this, the contractor should estimate the duration of each activity.
· He or she should establish an overall window of time for the project.
Develop a project schedule that provides a timetable for each activity and shows:
· The earliest times (or dates) at which each activity can start and finish, based on the project estimated start time (or date)
· The latest times (or dates) by which each activity must start and finish in order to complete the project by its required completion time (or date)
· Incorporate Changes into Schedule
· Throughout a project, changes may occur that impact the schedule.
· Changes might be initiated by the customer or the project team, or they might be the result of an unanticipated occurrence.
· Changes requested early in the project may have less of an impact on schedule and budget than those requested later in the project.
· When the customer requests a change, the contractor or project team should estimate the impact on the project schedule and budget and then obtain customer approval before proceeding.
· If the customer approves the proposed revisions to the project schedule and budget, then any additional activities, revised estimated durations, and revised estimated resources and associated costs should be incorporated into the project schedule and budget.

Introduction
The Introduction provides a high-level overview of the project and what is included in this Project Management Plan. This should include a high-level description of the project and describe the projects deliverables and benefits. Excessive detail is not necessary in this section as the other sections of the project plan will include this information. This section should provide a summarized framework of the project and its purpose. Look back at the Project Charter for information to include in this section.
Project Management Approach
This section is where you outline the overall management approach for the project. This section should describe, in general terms, the roles and authority of project team members. It should also include which organizations will provide resources for the project and any resource constraints or limitations. If there are any decisions which must be made by specific individuals—for example authorizing additional funding by the project sponsor—this should also be stated here. It should be written as an Executive Summary for the Project Management Plan.
Project Scope
State the scope of the project in this section. The scope statement from the project charter should be used as a starting point; however, the project plan needs to include a much more detailed scope than the charter. This detail should include what the project does and does not include. The more detail included in this section, the better the product. This will help to clarify what is included in the project and help to avoid any confusion from project team members and stakeholders.
Milestone List
Provide a summary list of milestones including dates for each milestone. Include an introductory paragraph in this section which provides some insight to the major milestones. This section should also mention or discuss actions taken if any changes to the milestones or delivery dates are required.
Schedule Baseline and Work Breakdown Structure
This section should discuss the WBS, WBS Dictionary, and Schedule baseline ...
A comprehensive project scope analysis has several key benefits: it transforms an idea into a working concept, maps out project details in a detailed manner, and ensures the final product aligns with original goals and objectives. By outlining each step, it increases the likelihood the project stays on budget, time, and meets requirements.
A work package is a specific step of a project that is more manageable than the whole project. Each work package has its own deadline, resource needs, and supervisor. Collectively, work packages lead the project from start to finish.
A responsibility assignment matrix outlines team members responsible for each task and supporting members. It increases communication and flow by identifying responsibilities. Creating it helps the project manager better coordinate

CompetencyAnalyze ethical and legal dilemmas that healthcare.docxbartholomeocoombs
Competency
Analyze ethical and legal dilemmas that healthcare workers may encounter in the medical field.
Instructions
You have recently been promoted to Health Services Manager at Three Mountains Regional Hospital, a small hospital located in a mid-size city in the Midwest. Three Mountains is a general medical and surgical facility with 400 beds. Last year there were approximately 62,000 emergency visits and 15,000 admissions. More than 6,000 outpatient and 10,000 inpatient surgeries were performed.
An important aspect of the provider/patient relationship pertains to open communication and trust. Patients want to know that their doctors and the support staff associated with their care understand their wishes and will abide by them. Ideally, these conversations happen well before an emergency or procedure takes place; however, often times this information is missing from a patient's file. As part of Three Mountains' initiative to build trust with their patients, an increased emphasis has been placed on obtaining living wills from the patient as part of the intake process to ensure that the healthcare team has written directives of the patient's wishes in case of incapacitation. You will be creating a living will for a patient and provide educational information as to why the patient should fill it out during the admission process before a procedure.
Introduction:
Explain the definition of a living will and its key components. This section will provide an educational overview of the document for the patient.
Living Will Template:
Create a living will that can serve as a template to the patients. This should cover the basic treatment issues such as resuscitation, feeding tubes, ventilation, organ and tissue donations, etc. Provide instructions in the template that can be easily altered, depending on each patient's wishes.
Summary:
In this section, you will discuss the importance of this document and encourage patients to complete it. Address how this document ensures that a patient's wishes are known and followed by the healthcare team.

Competences, Learning Theories and MOOCs:
Recent Developments in Lifelong Learning
Karl Steffens
Introduction
We think of our societies as ‘knowledge societies’ in which lifelong learning is
becoming increasingly important. Lifelong learning refers to the idea that people
not only learn in schools and universities, but also in non-formal and informal
ways during their lifespan.The concepts of lifelong learning and lifelong education
began to enter the discourse on educational policies in the late 1960s (Tuijnman
& Boström, 2002). However, these are related, but distinct concepts. As Lee (2014,
p. 472) notes ‘the terminological change (from lifelong education, continuing
education and adult education, to lifelong learning) reflects a conceptual departure
from the idea of organised educational provision to that of a more individualised
pursuit of learning’.
One of the first important documents on lifelong learning was the report of the
International Commission on the Development of Education to UNESCO in
1972, titled ‘Learning to be. The world of education today and tomorrow’. In his
introductory letter to the Director-General of UNESCO, the chairman of the
Commission, Edgar Faure, stated that the work of the Commission was based on
four assumptions (see Elfert pp. and Carneiro pp. in this issue). The first was
related to the idea that there was an international community which was united by
common aspirations and the second was the belief in democracy and in education
as its keystones. The third was ‘that the aim of development is the complete
fulfilment of man, in all the richness of his personality, the complexity of his forms
of expression and his various commitments — as individual, member of a family
and of a community, citizen and producer, inventor of techniques and creative
dreamer’. The last assumption was that ‘only an over-all, lifelong education can
produce the kind of complete man, the need for whom is increasing with the
continually more stringent constraints tearing the individual asunder’ (Faure,
1972, p. vi).
Following the Faure Report, the UNESCO Institute for Education, which
was founded in Germany in 1951, started to focus on lifelong learning and
subsequently became the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL, http://
uil.unesco.org/home/). It was under its leadership that a formal model of lifelong
education was developed and published in the book ‘Towards a System of Life-
long Education’ (Cropley, 1980). The concept of lifelong learning also became
manifest in the ‘Education for All’ (EFA) agenda that was launched at the World
Conference on Education for All which took place in Jomtien (Thailand) in

Compensation & Benefits Class 700 words with references
A strategic purpose for a well-blended compensation program, one that includes various types of direct compensation, is gaining employee commitment and productivity. One of the most effective tactics for this strategy is designing a process for linking individual achievement to organizational goals.
Prepare a report to senior leaders addressing the following:
·
Explain the concept of tying performance to organizational goals.
·
Describe the different types of individual and group-level performance measurements.
·
What are the advantages and disadvantages of individual versus group-level performance recognition?
·
Discuss the options an organization has to link individual or group monetary rewards to organizational success.

Compensation, Benefits, Reward & Recognition Plan for V.P. Operations
Introduction
Base Salary Range
For the position of VP of Operations, the National Average Salary is $122,624. In San Francisco, the average is higher and placed at $155,946. This amount is 16% higher than the National Average (Payscale, 2016). The reason for this increase is because of experience and geography. These are the two prime factors that impact the pay scale. Another major factor is the employer. Most employers base their decision to hire an individual on the experience they bring with them. Of course, with more experience, higher pay is required. With our company cutting cost a less experienced individual would be the best fit for the position.
Standard Employee Benefit
In many cases, your employee benefits could be the turning point for a prospective employee. This benefit is a vital portion of any employee packet. These valuable benefits are used as a blanket of security in the case of any sickness, injury, unemployment, old age, or death (Gomez-Mejia, Balkin & Cardy, 2015, p. 362). There is a significant difference between incentives and benefits: benefits are financial and nonfinancial compensations that are indirect to the employee. To have a competitive strategy Blossoms Up! must align their profits with the compensation package that has been already put in place. This action will help provide flexibility to the amount and the benefits available (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015).
There are also some benefits that most companies are legally obligated to provide. Three benefits are required regardless of the number of employees that the company has. These interests involve social security, workers compensation, and unemployment insurance (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). Other laws must be adhered to when dealing with a certain number of individuals. When a company has 50 or more employee they must have the Family and Medical Leave Act in place and since its induction in 2015 the Affordable Care Act for Health Insurance for companies with 20 or more employees. For the health insurance to be considered standard medical, vision and dental plans must be made available to the business. These programs that must be regarded as being under the Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) or a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015).
There are some voluntary benefits that we can include. We are already looking into adding a pension package using the Defined Contribution Plan as well as the 401(K) plan (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). Life insurance is another excellent benefit that could be added to the package as well as short-term and long-term disability insurance. Adding Vacation and PTO, and Holiday pay is .

The document discusses the importance of physical security for computer and network security. It notes that physical access negates all other security measures, as an attacker can directly access systems if they have physical proximity. It outlines several ways an attacker could exploit physical access, such as using bootable media like LiveCDs to access tools and directly image hard drives. The document emphasizes that physical security is foundational and must be carefully designed and implemented to protect against unauthorized access to systems and data.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

__MACOSX/._P3_MutexLocks.java
Operating System - Assignment II
Mutex locks and semaphores, as discussed in class, are different
techniques to solve the race condition and
to ensure an efficient synchronization between cooperating
threads and processes. In this assignment, you
will use locks and semaphores to solve several synchronization
problems between cooperating threads. You
can develop the required work either on your computer or on the
Ubuntu VM you installed, and you can
use any Java IDE you find appropriate (e.g., NetBeans, Eclipse,
IntelliJ). Follow the video posted on D2L;
in this video, you will create a new Java program and package
before you copy a number of .java files to
your project. This video shows how to use mutex lock and
semaphore between cooperating threads. As
discussed and shown in the video, it is important to note that:
49. • Mutex Lock, in literature, uses acquire() and release().
However, in the standard library of Java, these
functions are lock() and unlock(), respectively. The same
functionalities but with different names.
• Semaphore, in literature, uses wait() and signal(). However, in
the standard library of Java, these functions
are acquire() and release(), respectively. The same
functionalities but with different names.
Task description:
The files (named question1, question2, and question3) are for
three different synchronization problems,
with a full Java skeleton. The comments in the Java files
explain in detail the required functionalities and
guide you to where exactly you should place your
implementation, read them carefully before starting
coding. DO NOT CHANGE any already existing code (e.g.,
function name, variable name).
• In the first question, the deposit and withdraw functions share
a bank account to add a certain amount or
subtract a certain amount from the balance, respectively. Use
semaphore(s) to implement the
synchronization.
•
• In the second question, the producer and consumer functions
share an array of integer values to add items
or remove items from the buffer, respectively. Use mutex
lock(s) to implement the synchronization.
•
50. • In the third question, the Ascending and Descending functions
share an array of integer values to sort
them in ascending or descending order, respectively. Use either
mutex lock(s) or semaphore(s) to
implement the synchronization. Implement the sorting method
you find appropriate (e.g., selection sort,
bubble sort, insertion sort), but don’t use collection
methods/APIs (e.g., Arrays.sort).
Note: the threads running the above questions are implemented
to run in an infinite loop, so at some
point, you may need to force-stop the program.
Submission:
1. This is an individual assignment -- Cheating/plagiarism will
be checked and will receive zero.
2. Your submission to the folder titled Assignment 2 under the
D2L Assignments tab contains the following:
a. The three java files you worked on
b. One Runtime.pdf: - For each of the three java files, copy the
full java code and add a
clear screenshot of the output after running the code.
* these are separate files within your submission, don’t submit a
zip file
3. The assignment is due October 21st – 11:59pm. You can
submit your assignment within 24 hours
after this due date to be graded out of 50% of the assignment’s
51. grade. After this grace period, your
late submission will not be accepted.
· Identify a personal project of your choosing. This could be a
family vacation, plans to clean or organize a part of your living
space, etc.
· For the discussion, you will use the tools provided in Chapter
4 of your textbook to provide a brief summary of your project
that includes the scope of the project and at least three goals or
objectives of the project.
