...Task: Explain how and why groups of customers are targeted for selected products. In this assignment I will be explaining what market segmentation is; I will also explain the different types of market segmentations and also how Tesco use market segmentation when selling a particular product. Furthermore I will take account of what business to consumer and business to business marketing is and I will explain how Tesco use them. Market segmentation is a marketing strategy which consists of dividing and breaking down a broad target market into subsections of consumers, businesses, or countries that have, or are thought to have, common needs, interests, and priorities, and then applying strategies to target them. There are usually four types of segmentations businesses will use. These are: geographical segmentation, demographic segmentation, psychographic segmentation and behavioural segmentation. The geographical segmentation divides customers into segments based upon the geographical areas such as nations, regions, counties, cities or neighbourhoods. This could compare to spending levels, income levels, employment levels and buying habits for places around geographical areas. Tesco would use the geographical segmentation to find out where they should set up their stores. This could mean more affluent places to bring in more customers which can buy the top end products and in a place where there is barely a supermarket as this will attract all people around the geographical...

...Marcos Corpas 1/18/2016 NT1110 Unit 5 Analysis 1: Pentium Flaw The Pentium processor flaw was a flaw in the floating-point math subsection of the Pentium microprocessor. When certain conditions were met low order bits of the result of floating-point division operations would be incorrect, an error that can quickly compound in floating-point operations to much larger errors in subsequent calculations. Intel corrected the problem in a future revision, but they refused to disclose it. The mathematics professor at Lynchburg College who discovered the flaw was Dr. Thomas Nicely. Dr. Nicely then had an inquiry with Intel and upon not receiving any response from them he posted about the flaw on October 30th 1994 online. Word quickly spread of the flaw and Intel responded by saying that the bug was minor and “not even an erratum”. Since the bug was easy to replicate by the average user, Intel's response about the bug was not accepted by many computer users. When New York Times Journalist John Markoff ran a piece that spotlighted the error, Intel in response to the media coverage changed its position on the matter and offered to replace every faulty chip. Intel put in place a large end-user support organization. This resulted in a five hundred million dollar charge against Intel's 1994 revenue. Interestingly enough, the attention paid to the Intel Pentium Processor Flaw made Intel go from a seemingly unknown computer supplier to a regular household name. The incident is considered by...

...reported in 1994. The Intel P5 chip was found to have a floating point unit bug that made digital divide operation in algorithms flaw after the 4th decimal point. I will also be touching on the contributions of Professor Thomas R. Nicely and the time line on which he brought attention to the bug from the Intel P5. The Pentium FDIV bug The Pentium FDIV bug was first discovered by a professor named Thomas R. Nicely from Lynchburg College in Virginia. He discovered there were a few missing entries in the lookup table by the digital divide operation algorithm. Sadly Intel knew about the bug when they were testing the chip in June of 1994. Intel’s managers decided the error would not affect as many people as it would to issue a recall, and that they should not inform anyone outside the company. Later thet same month Dr. Nicely, a professor of mathematics noticed small differenced in two sets of numbers. Dr. Nicely spent months eliminating possible causes such ad PCI bus errors and compiler artifacts. October 19th after testing on several 486 and Pentium-based computers Dr. Nicely was certain that the error was caused by the Intel P5 processor. On the 24th of October he contacted Intel technical support and the support representative confirmed the error and said that it was not reported before. Then on October 30th after receiving no more information from Intel he sent an email message to a few people, announcing his discovery of a bug in the Intel P5 processor. From there...

...The Pentium floating-point unit flaw only occurred on some models of the original Pentium microprocessor chip. Professor Nicely, a professor of mathematics at Lynchburg College, had written code to enumerate primes, twin primes, prime triplets, and prime quadruplets. Prof. Nicely noticed some inconsistencies in the calculations in June, 1994, shortly after adding a Pentium system to his group of computers, but was unable to eliminate other possible factors until October, 1994. On October 24th, 1994 he reported the flaw he encountered to Intel. The person that he contacted at Intel later admitted being aware of the flaw since May 1994. The flaw was discovered by Intel during testing of the FPU for its new P6 core, which was first used in the Pentium Pro. An example of the flaw was found where the division result returned by the Pentium microprocessor was off by about 61 parts per million. In November, 1994 the story first broke in an article published in Electronic Engineering Times. In the story, Intel says it has corrected the glitch in subsequent runs of the chip, and Intel dismisses the importance of the flaw saying, "This doesn't even qualify as errata." The story was later picked up by other national and international media. On November 30, 1994 Intel released an in-house study of the flaw, "Statistical Analysis of Floating Point Flaw in the Pentium Processor" H.P. Sharangpani and M.L. Barton, Intel Corporation. The study on the processor minimized the potential impact of...

...When dealing with technology and computers, you come to expect flaws and glitches seeing that these devices are manmade. One of the biggest computer flaws in computer history was the “Pentium Microprocessor flaw”; this was a bug in the Intel P5 Pentium floating point that caused the processor to return incorrect results for many calculations used in math and science. This bug was blamed on the fact that there were a few missing entries in the lookup table used by Intel. This flaw was exposed by Professor Thomas R. Nicely, who was a professor at Lynchburg College in Virginia. Nicely discovered this error June 13, 1994 when noticing some inconsistencies in his calculations. It took Nicely until October 19, 1994 to be sure that it was in fact the microprocessor causing his error. Once Nicely was sure that this was causing the error he reported it to Intel October 24, 1994. It was later discovered that Intel was aware of this flaw since May 1994 while they were conducting some testing for a newer model. News of this bug spread quickly, and Intel needed to respond publicly. They responded stating that there was a floating point flaw but that they didn’t feel it would affect many users and offered to replace processors for users who could prove that they were affected. The public was not satisfied with this response and Pentium was forced to offer a replacement to all users who requested a replacement. This dramatically affected the finances of Intel; the company announced...

...The Pentium bug was a bug in the Intel P5 Pentium floating point unit. Because of the bug, the processor would send the wrong results for many calculations used in math and science. Intel blamed the problem on a few missing entries in the lookup table used by the company. The error was discovered by Professor Thomas R. Nicely at Lynchburg College on October 24, 1994. The error was rarely encountered by users; however both the flaw and Intel's initial handling of the matter were heavily criticized. On December 20, 1994, Intel offered to replace all flawed Pentium processors on request, in response to mounting public pressure. Even though only a small fraction of Pentium owners bothered to get their chips replaced, the financial impact on the company was significant. How Intel handled this was important to keep their business going but at the same time they couldn’t shoot themselves in the foot. Offering to replace the chips that were affected was a big move but I feel like the majority of Intels costumers were grateful for the service. If they didn’t take responsibility for what they did and replace those messed up chips then they wouldn’t have the customer loyalty they have today. I think what they did was the right move and tough them a good lesson on paying attention to detail. If the same flaw happened today some of the effect could be drastic. We depend on computer now days way more than they did back in the 90’s. There response to a problem like this in today’s world really...

...In late 1994, Thomas Nicely, a mathematics professor at Lynchburg College discovered a flaw with the new Intel Pentium processor while he was trying to perform calculations. He had noticed that the answers to his calculations were coming back wrong. One example of the flaw was found where the division result returned by the Pentium was off by about 61 parts per million. He initially contacted Intel in which he would find out later that they were aware that there was a problem. At first Intel denied there being a problem but after several reports they said that there was a problem but it was so minor that most computer users wouldn’t notice it. Intel then told its customers that if they could prove that they received a defective chip then they would replace it for free. IBM, who used the Pentium in their computers, cancelled their sales of their computers that had the flawed chip. But finally after a lot of negative press and decreasing sales, Intel finally decided to replace all the flawed chips. It seems to me that at first Intel did a horrible job of addressing the issue. Ii seemed as if they wanted to hide the problem because they didn’t want it to affect their profit margins. It also seemed that they were worried about losing their customer base over the issue. But in the end they seemed to have admitted their fault and tried to do the right thing and replace the defective chips. I would hope and imagine that any company, including Intel, would try to be more proactive in...
