...definitions and discuss the benefits of a more organizational (Big-O) approach. Copyright ~ 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Introduction The purpose of this empirical essay is to be provocative. This paper is empirical in that it surveys leading organizational hehavior (GB) scholars to identify which topics they believed are currently important in the field and which should be important in an ‘ideal’ world and we compared their responses to an archival analysis of papers published in leading GB journals over a 10 year period. However, the paper is an essay because it is less like a traditional theory-building or theory-testing study, and more like an empirically grounded opinion piece. We use the empirical evidence as a springboard to raise questions about the boundaries and trajectory of research in GB, and to highlight areas of the field that may deserve more attention in the future. We explore three...

...personal level. The piece of literature kind of hits home with what I see and how I feel that the woman that was presented in the literature was treated by the other people. The key terms that are going to be use to describe this literature piece will be tone, symbol, and figurative language. The main reason that this literature work captured my interest is because I can place myself in her shoes. I have been in positions and also have been in places that people did not want me there, or that I did not feel welcome in their circle. There was one incident that I remember; I was trying to find a church that could feel comfortable going to, some place that I can look for answers if I had questions. I believe that is what the little old woman was doing in the literature work in The Welcoming Table. It seems like the woman wanted to do was pray and be able to speak to Jesus in his own house. The people of the church did not want her to be there because she was not wearing the right clothes, and she was not like them, that is what I got from the reading. The people that were in the church were not happy that she was there, even though she was sitting in the back of the church not disturbing anyone. This situation is just like high school for me, I know how she must have felt and how it was unfair. The three key terms that is going to be used to reflect on this literature is tone, symbol, and figurative language. The writers tone was more toward the old woman, as the reader the tone of...

...Cryptography Cryptography Some data is very sensitive and therefore it has to be hidden away from parties who are not supposed to view it. In this age of computers, their capacity for transfer and retrieval of information may be exploited by other parties to gain access to confidential and potentially dangerous data. Therefore, measures have been taken to ensure that data is not accessed by others which is done by using several methods which, besides physical security, includes the use of encryption algorithms which are programs that change the way information looks by rendering it illegible. Data encryption is an important part of computing and, if done properly, can provide the user with means through which data can be protected from other parties. Encryption is done in many areas including end point devices such as computer terminals and servers which store important information. As such, data encryption has been applied in the military, banking sector, in businesses and other areas which require secure storage and transfer of data. Data encryption is simply the change of raw data or ordinary information referred to as plaintext into indecipherable material called cipher text. The data can then be stored or transferred securely since it cannot be read by another party. If the data is to be accessed, a cipher, which is the pair of algorithms that encrypts and decrypts data, is used to decrypt the data. The data can then be read and it is therefore accessible only...
