1. Backbone.js is a lightweight JavaScript framework that brings structure to client-side code through an MVC pattern.
2. It separates presentation logic from business logic by defining Models, Collections, and Views. Models represent data, Collections hold lists of Models, and Views render the UI and handle events.
3. While Backbone.js allows building single page applications quickly, code can become disorganized without its structure. The framework encourages maintainable, loosely coupled code through its MVC implementation.

Our early attempts at doing client side rendering in tuenti.com brought us many performance problems, not only for the usual offenders (IE6 and IE7) but also for fast browsers like Chrome. We tried to solve most of those using a technology to render client side that ended up being faster on IE7 than Chrome, but still, things were not working. We had to scrape most of our homegrown framework and start from the beginning. We realized that the first thing we needed to do to use Javascript successfully in our thick client was to have a Javascript dependency management system. YUI came to our rescue. We also learned that in our case we would not be able to work only with client-side rendering, having server-side rendering was a must. That brings the problem of what template engine to use and whether to render server side with PHP or rather use Javascript and node so you can truly share templates between server and client. We will talk about the mistakes we made early on so you can learn from those, but also about technologies and methodologies that have (and have not) worked for us.

Build Secure Cloud-Hosted Apps for SharePoint 2013Danny Jessee
Apps for SharePoint were introduced in SharePoint 2013 to maximize the level of capability and flexibility that developers can deliver without risking compromise to the farm. In this demo-intensive session, we will delve into apps that leverage resources running outside the SharePoint farm—whether in another on-premises web server or in the cloud. We will use server-side and client-side code to demonstrate how cloud-hosted apps can securely access data stored in SharePoint using the client object model (CSOM/JSOM) and REST APIs, along with the pros and cons associated with each approach. We will discuss the various permissions models associated with apps for SharePoint including types of app permissions, permission request scopes, and how app developers can manage permissions.
The Future of Responsive Design StandardsBrian Fegan
The document discusses future standards for responsive design that will better adapt to users' needs and environments. It proposes evolving HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to utilize new browser APIs that detect things like connection speed, location, ambient light, and other environmental factors to optimize content delivery and layout. This would allow sites to serve high resolution video only to fast connections, increase text size for distant users, and adapt layouts and fonts based on a user's detected region, among other things.
MVC Design Pattern in JavaScript by ADMEC Multimedia InstituteRavi Bhadauria
This presentation is one of the best presentations from our study material for our JavaScript Object Oriented workshops which ADMEC conducts every week at the
center.
The document discusses various design patterns and best practices for building multipage applications with Backbone.js, including scoping selectors with views, using a file structure with folders for models, views etc., templates, template sharing between client and server, view injection, view helpers, bootstrapping data, mixins, parent-child views, two-way data binding with stickit, and an overview of Marionette.js which provides additional structure to Backbone apps.
This document discusses techniques for improving frontend performance. It recommends making fewer HTTP requests, using a content delivery network, adding expiration headers, gzipping components, optimizing stylesheet and script placement, avoiding redirects and duplicate scripts, and more. It also covers techniques for loading scripts asynchronously without blocking page rendering, such as using script elements, XHR, and iframes. Faster page loads can improve user experience and increase revenue.
This document discusses best practices for mobile web development. It begins by noting limitations of mobile devices like less CPU/memory and smaller screens. It then provides tips for configuring the viewport, using media queries to separate styles, and detecting device properties in JavaScript. The document also covers HTML5 features like geolocation, media capture, and input types. It gives recommendations for images, gestures, and performance optimizations like minimizing redirects, requests, files sizes and using Gzip compression.
ESRI Dev Meetup: Building Distributed JavaScript Map WidgetsAllan Glen
This document discusses building distributed JavaScript map widgets. It describes embedding maps as widgets that can be copied and pasted to deploy on different sites and allow interaction between maps and web pages. Typical code is shown for embedding a map. The steps involved are bootstrapping external resources, building out the DOM structure, and enabling communication, often through JSONP to avoid cross-domain issues. Examples are provided of different map widgets embedded on pages.
Last year, AOL adopted a new content strategy and has positioned itself as a premier destination for original content.

Martin Wolf MARCH 24 2020 The coronavirus seeks only t.docxtienboileau
Martin Wolf MARCH 24 2020
The coronavirus seeks only to replicate. We seek to halt that replication. Unlike the virus, humans make
choices. This pandemic will pass into history. But the way in which it passes will shape the world it leaves
behind. It is the first such pandemic for a century. And it comes to a world that — unlike in 1918, when
the Spanish flu hit — has been at peace and enjoys unprecedented wealth. We should be able to
manage it well. If we do not do so, this will be a turning point for the worse. Making the right decisions
requires that we understand the options and their moral implications. We now confront two
fundamental sets of choices: within our countries and across borders. In high-income countries, the
biggest choice is how aggressively to halt transmission of the virus. But we also need to decide who will
bear the costs of that choice and how. Some continue to argue that it is wrong to force the economy
into a depression to suppress transmission of the virus. This, they suggest, will cause unnecessary
disruption. If, instead, the virus is left to spread relatively freely, we can achieve “herd immunity”,
sustain the economy and still focus resources on the vulnerable. Yet it is not clear that the economy
would fare better under this relatively laissez faire “mitigation” policy than under one of determined
“suppression”. Long before government-imposed lockdowns, many people stopped travelling or going
to restaurants, cinemas or shops. Decisive action to suppress the virus and follow up with testing and
tracking of new infections could well end the inevitable economic slump even sooner than otherwise.
What seems quite certain is the global health system would fare much better under suppression than
mitigation. Under the latter, argues the Imperial College Covid-19 Response Team, the health systems of
the UK and US would be overwhelmed: large numbers of predominantly old people would be left to die
untreated. It was presumably to prevent this from happening across China that the government
suppressed the virus so fiercely in Hubei. Could a health calamity that is unacceptable in China be
acceptable in the UK or US? Yet the critics are also right: it will be impossible to close large parts of our
economies for very long. If suppression is to be tried, it must be successful quickly and resurgence of the
virus must be throttled. Meanwhile, central banks and governments must seek to keep as much of the
economy going as possible, preserve as much productive capacity intact as possible and ensure that the
people, above all the vulnerable, are generously protected in whatever way a country finds practical.
The solidarity between countries needs to be as strong as within them. The financial instability and
looming recession (probably depression) we see coming will inflict huge harm on emerging and
developing countries. The IMF states that investors have already removed $83.

MBA 665 Final Project Milestone Three Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: The final project for this course is the creation of an impact of governmental action on a business paper. For Milestone Three you will submit the
Analysis section of your final project, which is Section II of the critical elements. Your analysis should include answers to all the questions in the Analysis section
on business environment, sustainability, internal resources, communication, company image, response, impact, and external resources.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Analysis: After submitting your overview, your boss is having second thoughts about bringing Jack Harris and his firm, Crisis Consulting, on board. Before
he makes his final decision he has asked you to provide him with a thorough analysis of the situation faced by your business. He asks you to prepare a
memorandum to him (the CEO) analyzing the situation that your business faces as well as the resources that are available to it. Address the following:
A. Business Environment: Based on your analysis of the governmental action or political challenge, what will be the impact of the governmental
action or political challenge on the business’s financial situation and operations? Does the action represent an opportunity or a threat?
B. Sustainability: Based on your analysis of the governmental action or political challenge, how will the governmental action or political challenge
impact the sustainability of the business?
C. Internal Resources: Evaluate the internal resources of the company, including the business project teams that are available to respond to the
opportunity or threat. In other words, is the business adequately organized to address the opportunity or threat?
D. Communication: How has information about the situation been communicated to various stakeholders? For example, have any public hearings
been held? Have the radio, newspapers, or social media been used?
E. Company Image: Assess how the situation has affected the company’s public image. Has the impact been primarily positive or negative? If the
impact has been primarily negative, what are the positive aspects in addition to the negative aspects? If the impact has been primarily positive,
what are the negative aspects in addition to the positive aspects?
F. Response: What are the potential courses of action to respond to the situation in the current macroeconomic and business environment? In
other words, what is the range of options for the business in this situation?
G. Impact: How will these courses of action impact the business? Make sure to consider both short- and long-term impacts, including operational,
financial, and ethical implications.
H. External Resources: Evaluate the roles and functions of third parties or external resources in the situation. Consider questions such as these in
your response: How will lobbyists be involved in the situation? .

MBA 599 – Strategic Management Case Project This capsto.docxtienboileau
MBA 599 – Strategic Management Case Project
This capstone course requires each student to construct a detailed and well-thought-out analysis of a
business employing all the relevant strategic analysis tools studied in the course. This project will take the
full term to complete. It is our sincere hope that you will find this project to be the most rewarding effort in
your educational career.
Project Overview
This course is designed to help you develop strategic skills that can be used in management. The
process of strategic planning is an iterative cycle of research and analysis, ending with a series of choices
about what will be attempted and how it will be approached. The most tangible output is the strategic
planning document. The most important output is the increased understanding that the participants
acquire. Accordingly, the assessment of the final project will be heavily dependent on the quality of the
strategic thinking inside that polished report. Students that focus on the expeditious completion of the
steps may find that they have shortchanged the important and time-consuming exploration and thinking
that is necessary to create a quality strategic case. Since not all tools can tell the planner which factors
and alternatives are important to consider, the planner should pull in as much diverse information and
perspectives as possible. Additionally, you should put yourselves in the competitor’s shoes and consider
how the “game” will play out. Your homework and subsequent improvements are intended to become a
primary basis for the exploration and questioning that drives your strategic understanding and creative
ideas. In addition, it is important to test your strategic thinking and your use of analytical tools in
preparation for your final project.
Tips for Selecting an Organization
As you select an organization for your class project, it is important that you select one that is interesting,
possibly useful to you in your career, industry, or interests, and allows you to explore strategic challenges
in a meaningful way. If you select the industry in which you currently work, you must address two critical
issues: (1) integrating and clearly citing existing information. (You will need to delineate work you’ve
contributed as opposed to pre-existing information), and (2) succinctly presenting existing information
while adding new insight, analysis, and plans that substantially add to strategy development,
implementation, and/or assessment of the organization. An organization or industry you are interested in
should give you better access to information although you need to pay careful attention to the points
made above.
Do not underestimate the degree to which you will need to be an expert in the selected industry and
related areas. It is impossible to create a strategy without understanding the terms, technologies, market
changes, and so forth in great depth. A.
MBA 640 Final Project Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric .docxtienboileau
MBA 640 Final Project Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: The final project for this course is the creation of an external capital funding proposal.
Most businesses face a landscape of uncertainty and a never-ending stream of risks and opportunities. Managers must continually project the likely financial
impact of decisions, make recommendations, act on those decisions, determine how to pay for them, and evaluate the costs and effectiveness of what has been
done. Many decisions are short-term, routine, and operational. Others are longer-term investment decisions that require substantial new resources, such as
developing new services, expanding into new geographic markets, or undertaking business combinations or spin-offs. Each requires managers to forecast, plan,
and make decisions based on a thorough understanding of both internal and external factors that can affect a company’s financial success.
For the summative assessment in this course, you will bring your finance and economics knowledge to bear by preparing an external capital funding proposal for
a major international investment at a publicly traded corporation. In order to secure the support of potential financial backers, your proposal will need to lay out
what the proposed investment opportunity is, how it fits within the company’s broader mission and goals, its financial impact, and the amount being requested
and why (including alternative funding mechanisms considered). In addition, it will also need to include information on the organization’s context, risk factors,
and microeconomic assumptions that could affect the success of the investment.
Prompt: Submit a paper that addresses critical element IV, Risks, of the final project. Discuss any risks that might affect the success of the project and how you
have planned for those contingencies.
Note: The risks (and opportunities) you identify should demonstrate your understanding of the company you selected, the industry, the investment project you
are proposing, and your project’s country and timing. Your estimates of financial impacts will be only preliminary; you will most likely revise them in your final
submission at the end of Module Nine.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
Section IV Risks:
1. Internal. What are the company’s most significant internal risks and opportunities related to the project? How might they affect your financial estimates
and how will you address them? Support your response with specific examples.
2. External. How will you address significant qualitative risks outside the company that might affect project success? Give specific examples. For example,
how might culture or politics in the target country affect the proposed investment’s financial success? Natural disasters? How have you planned for
these risks?
3. Microeconomic. Assess the microeconomic factors that might affect decisions about the proposed investment. .

Masuben
Private equity firm can be very helpful for a company’s growth as its money helps in various restructuring of the company as large amounts of funding are invested in the company . It could be very helpful in developing companies' growth from grass root level. As optimum money is invested the production of goods will be more and retailers will get the product on time. Also as money is invested in advancement of technology the cost of production can be low so the retailers could make some more profit and manufacturers can make the product much quicker. As private equity holders are more concerned about their money they are actively involved in business to maximise the value. As the funding is major the return on investment will be huge which can be very helpful for manufacturers and retailers.(Piloto Sincerre, B., Sampaio, J., Famá, R., & Flores, E. S. 2019)
As every coin has two sides, sometimes private equity has its own downside. The biggest threat is to manufacturers as it can lose its ownership. As with private equity, more money is involved in business which leads to loss of a larger share of the business as private equity firms always take the larger majority stake of the business. As a private equity holder becomes actively involved in business, sometimes they overpower the management decision like hiring, business strategy, business decisions and other valuable management responsibilities. The main mission of equity holders is to generate revenue on their investment which might lead to unethical activities as larger money is involved. Also as production is increased there might be more pressure on retailers to sell the item as supply of goods will be more and demand is low.(BACON, N., WRIGHT, M., MEULEMAN, M., & SCHOLES, L. 2012) As larger money is involved the business can grow rapidly across the countries so to conclude private equity can help in growing business more.
2. Maheshwari
Private equity refers to capital that is not traded publicly. The acquisition of public manufacturing and retail firms, therefore, refers to privatization. Part of the entire firm is purchased by a high net worth individual or firm that aims at controlling it. This mostly involves buying the shares of the firm. This is mostly done by institutional investors such as pension funds and equity private firms (Chen, et al., 2020). This kind of acquisition has several effects on the firm. Some of these effects are outlined below.
a)
Huge amounts of funding
The process of private equity acquisition provides firms with a lot of capital that can transform their operations if properly budgeted for and utilized.
b)
Investor Involvement
As a result of the huge amounts of money invested by the institutional investors into the firms, they are actively involved in the operations of the firm to ensure maximization of value as opposed to other options of funding which allow for limited involvement by the lenders.
c)

Topic – Causes of Death in 1980 and 2016
According to the 1980 Census, the United States population was approximately 226,540,000 in 1980. It grew to approximately 323,120,000 at the beginning of 2016. Using Census data for 1980 and estimates derived from mortality data for 2016, we arrive at the population estimates given in the table below:
Year
Total Population
Ages 15–24
Ages 25–44
Ages 45–64
1980
226,540,000
42,475,000
62,707,000
44,497,000
2016
323,120,000
43,500,000
85,150,000
84,300,000
The National Center for Health Statistics published a document entitled “Health, United States, 2015: With Special Feature on Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities” that includes a table listing the leading causes of death in 1980 by age bracket. The CDC further produced a National Vital Statistics Reports that provided similar information for the year 2016. Under the Project Instructions link in Blackboard, you’ll find Discussion Board Forum 2: Data, a spreadsheet showing the leading causes of death in both 1980 and 2016 for these 3 age categories. Each of the first 3 questions has both a computational part and a discussion part. To get full credit for each of the discussion parts, please cite a reference to support your claims. This should not be an excessively difficult task: you can easily find information online for most of the illnesses or other causes listed in the report. All you need to do is provide the website you used (though other resources are also permitted if you prefer to use one of those).
1. Assuming that the population numbers in the above table are relatively accurate, use the Discussion Board Forum 2: Data spreadsheet to compute the deaths per 1000 people for each age group in both 1980 and 2016. Deaths per 1000 people is computed using the formula Deaths per 1000 = (# of deaths) / (total population) Do not round your answer to the nearest whole number, provide at least 2 decimal places (but no more than 4). Give these 6 values (e.g. deaths per 1000 people for ages 15–24 in 1980) and then cite a reference to discuss what might account for the changes between the deaths per 1000 in 1 of these 3 age categories between 1980 and 2016. Your discussion should be at least 40 words.
2. Besides the changes in the overall death rate in the past 3 decades, the leading causes of death vary somewhat between 1980 and 2016. Choose 1 of the 3 age ranges and select 1 cause of death from the Discussion Board Forum 2: Data spreadsheet that strikes you as noteworthy and that appears in both the 1980 and 2016 lists. For the cause of death that you selected, compute the number of deaths per 1000 in both 1980 and 2016 for your chosen age group. Do not round your answer to the nearest whole number,.

Abstract
The authenticity of human resource
information has become an important factor that
affects the cost and efficiency of human resource
management. With the rapid development of
mobile devices and Internet technology, various
human resource risks caused by information
asymmetry constantly bring economic loss, and
even a fatal blow, to enterprises. Based on
Blockchain(BC), this paper aims to combine
traditional encryption technology with Internet-
distributed technology, to establish a human
resource information management model that
reduces the risk of authenticity of human resource
information. This model aims to solve the lack of
discrimination of the authenticity of human
resource information, and to provide authentic and
effective decision support information to the
human resource management of an organization.
The operation method, such as Bitcoin, is used to
certify the human resource documentations, as
well as to bind the information and the
documentation. Furthermore, human resource
information is recorded in an accounting book
based on BC technology; thus, modifying and
validating may be difficult in the entire net work.
Consensus mechanism, smart contract, accounting,
and payment functions of BC can provide the basic
support for human resource information
management. Moreover, decentralization of the
protection mechanism can be achieved to achieve
low cost and high efficiency of information transfer,
and to ensure a.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
