...hand can modify protocols based on the environment and have a very high degree of flexibility. They can also use unconventional methods to obtain results. * Enthusiasm to work: All said and done, in the end for any rural venture to be successful, what is required is a very high degree of enthusiasm, and an urge to excel. Social work is usually characterized by long working hours, unclear goals, sensitivity towards culture, commitment to the goals. Most private ventures enter this field out of passion and hence have this in plenty. Government officials may or may not be passionate about this project, but have to work on it. This clearly translates into the results. * Need for micro-level approach: Most rural ventures are extremely people oriented and need a lot of work to be done on a micro level and at a small scale. To be able to reach such a small demographic is usually...

...Storage). Network-attached storage (NAS) is a dedicated hard disk storage device that is set up with its own network address and provides file-based data storage services to other devices on the network. 2. NAS devices come in many varieties depending on if you build it yourself or purchase a vendor product. The speed is typically one gigabit Ethernet connection but this can be changed to multiple gigabit, 10 gigabit, fiber optic by adding a pci-e network card(s). Older parts can be used which may be limited to 10/100 megabit. If you need an exact answer for speed, simply look at the wiki on gigabit. The capacity range again varies; people have built 40 TB machines and other just have 2TB. With port replication and add-on hard drive controller cards there is hardly a limit on size. A board with 6 sata ports can be replicated (1 to 5 port) allowing for 30 drives to be attached, if 3TB drives were used in raid 50 that would be 72TB of storage. As far as fault tolerance, raid 50 is fairly stable if set up correctly, raid 10 has been touted as one of the best setups since more drives can fail at one time without data loss. All of those features can be used on typical NAS devices....

...In: Computers and Technology Unit 6 Research Paper 1: Network Attached Storage UNIT 6 RESEARCH PAPER 1: NETWORK ATTACHED STORAGE NT 1110 WAYNE HOVIS PART 1 What is a NAS device? A network-attached storage (NAS) device is a server that is dedicated to nothing more than file sharing. NAS does not provide any of the activities that a server in a server-centric system typically provides, such as email, authentication or file management. NAS allows more hard disk storage space to be added to a network that already utilizes servers without shutting them down for maintenance and upgrades. With a NAS device, storage is not an integral part of the server. Instead, in this storage-centric design, the server still handles all of the processing of data but a NAS device delivers the data to the user. A NAS device does not need to be located within the server but can exist anywhere in a LAN and can be made up of multiple networked NAS devices. What is the speed of the network adapter available on a NAS device? The speed is usually 1GB Ethernet connection but it can be changed to multiple Gb, 10Gb, fiber optic by adding a PCIe network card(s). It depends on the NAS device. Most newer ones will have Gigabit ethernet, very cheap or old ones may only be 100Mbit and high end ones may have 2 separate gigabit ethernet connections. What is the capacity range? Depending on the type and volume of content you plan to store, there's a choice of capacities...

...Cameron White Unit 6 Research Paper 1 What is a NAS device? A NAS (Network-Attached Storage) is a server that is dedicated to nothing more than file sharing. It’s usually a network providing data access to a heterogeneous group of clients. NAS usually has a speed of 1GB Ethernet connection but it can be changed to Gb, 10Gb, fiber optic by adding a PCIe network card. They usually have a capacity range from 0-Unlimitied. The capacity varies because you can always add on hardware drive controller cards. You can have a board that has six SATA ports that can allow 30 drives to be attached and 3TB drives are used in RAID 50, then there would be 72TB of storage. When using RAID there aren’t really any fault tolerance. Older models of RAID have been known to lose all storage if one or more drives fail. When using a NAS device there are management features available like using SSL to protect the web management interface to bare minimum, also support of protocols such as SSH for encryption of RSYNC data transfers. SMB’s with more than two dozen users will appreciate a proper management console from which users and permissions can be managed. SMB’s that have deployed Active Directory will be looking for a NAS that supports it as well. Some models can switch off when not in use to save power and you can always play with the settings. NAS can be really helpful and can defiantly be helpful with a family that all has there own computer. With NAS you can have photos and videos and share them/access...

...Rendell hired its first controller in 1980 to address this exact problem. Rendell had seven divisions, with each division responsible for the manufacturing and marketing of their line of products. A controller was assigned to each of the seven divisions, and they reported to the general manager of their respective division. Frank Bevins, Rendell’s corporate controller, was concerned about the organizational status of his divisional controllers, as they do not report directly to him. Consequently, the company was experiencing difficulties in implementing its modern control techniques due to the strained relationship between the corporate controller and the divisional controllers. Problem Identification The primary problem faced by Frank Bevins was that he felt he was not obtaining adequate information from the divisional controllers regarding the divisions’ budget and performance reporting. He suspected that it was due to the fact that the divisional controllers reported to their respective division’s general manager. The controllers’ primary loyalty was therefore to their division’s general manager, hence a biased report to the corporate controller. Bevins was facing a dilemma of whether or not Rendell should restructure its organization in such a way that would rectify this issue. Case Analysis The divisional controller’s task was to assist the general manager in budgeting and providing performance report. Although the divisional controllers adhered to the accounting...

...I was sitting in a Portland Oregon hotel when four words forever changed my business. The keynote speaker at the meeting, a vice president of channel had just finished a surprisingly lack-luster presentation and opened up for questions. An associate from New York City immediately stood and asked, “Do you consider us competition or partners?” The VP answered without skipping a beat, “You are Apple’s competition.” I guess there shouldn’t have been a gasp and rumble throughout the room, but 100+ Authorized Resellers and VARs suddenly realized that they faced an uphill battle. Many would close their doors in the months to come. As an Authorized reseller I bought our Apple branded products from first tier distributors such as Ingram Micro and Tech Data with only small price variances based on the size of the Purchase Order. Smaller PO’s were often ignored or faced delays in shipping. A big reason for the gasp in the room was the increasing trend of Apple product scarcity for resellers. While Apple’s new retail stores had full shelves we had to fight over the leftovers. Often this meant we missed out on the initial surge of purchases made by early adopters. (Eventually Apple would release game-changing products like the iPhone and not allow Apple resellers to sell them.) When Apple opened their new store 5 minutes from one of mine I was forced to pivot or close my doors. We changed from being an Apple Reseller who sold some accessories to more of a system integrator and service...

...size of the Blackberry Playbook tablet, which is seven inches. It has a screen, keyboard, and up to four USB controllers that are the size of an iPod. The controllers can be wireless, and then there are some with cords, so it just depends on the user’s choice. The controllers of the Genius 3D is fully touch screen, so there is no major risk of buttons popping of the controller. Instead of constantly rolling up the controller when the user is done playing, the controller has a button that retracts the cord itself, so there is a less chance of shortage within the cord. Genius 3D comes with a carrying case that can hold the game system itself along with the controllers. Genius 3D has 3D glasses that does not require the user to have 3D glasses. The 3D graphics has high definition. The graphics makes the game seem as if it can reach out and touch you. First-person shooter games are great to play on the Genius 3D because it brings the graphics out even more to the user, and it makes them feel like they are actually in the game. Genius 3D has the ability to also multitask. While the user is playing their game, they can also talk with their friends through the built-in microphone, or they can type messages to their friends using the instant messenger. The game is never interrupted, and the ability to communicate is just one shortcut button away on the user’s controller or the...

...handle the stress that air controllers face every day on the job. I wouldn’t be able to face it right now of course, but if I was trained, why not? They wouldn’t allow just anyone to be able to be an air controller without the proper knowledge and education/training. If you are properly trained for this particular job then you know what you are up against and should have no problem in doing the job. Although I am sure that this job isn’t for everybody and I am not sure it would be for me. It is a lot of pressure and you have a lot of lives that you are responsible for. 2. I think the overall stress that air controllers are faced with everyday is the fact that they have so many people’s lives in their control. One minor setback or something so little, or any decision or mistake can cost a major tragedy. That would be my biggest worry if I were an air controller. 3. I don’t understand what Pete Rogers means by “almost like a mini convention of type A personalities” but I am guessing he means that it is a reunion where they can come together and share ideas. They all perform the same job so they understand each other as opposed to someone who is not an air controller. To me this is a good thing because they can all come together and share their stresses and experiences and give each other support. 4. Yes, there are times I am faced with circumstances that most people would call stressful, although not as stressful as being an air controller. I am an insurance verifier...
