...As a company like Bead Bar grows and expands so too does the necessity for the company’s technology to have the ability to communicate with branches and headquarters increase. When developing the Bead Bar’s network plan there are multiple issues that need to be taken into consideration before a network topology and architecture can be established. Number of computers that need to be linked to the network, number of expected users on the network, cost effectiveness, ability to expand the network, these are just a few of the questions that need to be addressed. Even after these topics have been visited; it is important that the network plan not become stagnant. It should be revisited and modified, even as it is being implemented, to assure the most efficient network is being installed for the company’s current and future needs. We have previously established that the Bead Bar has about 35 full and part-time employees. There are six studios and five franchises scattered across multiple states that will need to be connected to the network. In addition there is Bead Bar on Board that will need the ability to remotely access the network. The hardware specifications have not yet been finalized, but we can anticipate connecting at least 14 computers, and around seven or eight printers to the network. The good news is all of the computers will be PCs running on Windows XP Pro; which is both a computer operating system (OS) as well as a network operating system (NOS), so no additional...

...Network solutions are continuously evolving in a changing economy. The five industries that were researched are banking, retail, judicial, law enforce, and military. The investigation included but not limited to be the history of the different networks, current network solutions, and than the future challenges of each varied business. The banking industry has evolved greatly due to the continuous improvement in technology and network solutions. The first bank in the United States of America was established by Congress in 1791 called the Bank of the United States. The first network innovation breakthrough that is a precursor to online banking was the invention of the telegraph. The telegraph was invented in 1844 by Samuel Morse which for the first time it allowed mankind the convenience and comfort of communication. For the first time it allowed banks to communicate across great distances in a qualified short period of time. The next great leap forward in network solutions in the banking industry occurred in the late 20th century. The wide distribution of automated teller machines (ATMs) by the mid-1980s gave customers 24-hour access to cash and account information. On-line banking through the Internet and banking through automated phone systems now allow for electronic payment of bills, money transfers, and loan applications without entering a bank branch. The current network of the banking industry has made it possible to deliver services throughout the branch...

...A REVIEW OF FLUIDIC SELF ASSEMBLY Towards the fulfillment of course requirement for EE5171 Under Prof. Stephen Campbell Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Minnesota, Twin Cities By: Manan M Dedhia ID # 4279398 M.S. Graduate student Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Minnesota, Twin Cities THE INTEGRATION of microelectromechanical systems(MEMS) sensors and actuators with other classes of microcomponents—electronic, optical, and fluidic—onto a single substrate has the potential to create powerful and complex microsystems. To increase device performance and thus realize the potential of microsystems, it is now accepted that the integration must occur at the micro scale. There are two possible routes: either the micro-components are fabricated at their desired locations in a single process, or they are fabricated separately and then positioned using micro assembly techniques. Since many classes of micro components cannot be co-fabricated effectively due to materials and process incompatibilities, several research groups are developing micro assembly approaches. In the micro assembly route, different classes of micro components are fabricated in separate processes, removed from their substrates, and assembled onto a target substrate of choice. For most applications, sub micrometer positioning and methods for establishing high-quality mechanical and electrical connections to the substrate are required. As in co fabrication, small-area electrical...

...Introduction Bahrain's economy diversity and openness continues to present a number of opportunities for starting a business or expanding a business. The Bahrainis have been systematically building up the sectors of tourism, metals, transport and finance, which, hopefully, will be able to take the economic weight once oil is no longer a viable source of income. With highly developed transport and communications facilities, Bahrain is a fast-growing market at the heart of the Gulf. Bahrain has a stable government with progressive attitudes which has helped to mould the country into a well-developed economy. There are numerous development projects underway around the country which makes the prospect of starting a business in Bahrain very appealing. Bahrain offers a variety of incentives to the prospect of starting a business and investing in Bahrain including its tax free economy and no VAT (Value Added Tax). The Bahrain lifestyle is cosmopolitan and liberal, and there is a relaxed social environment which makes it a popular area with tourists from the region. It's an essentially Arab culture, adopting many of the traditions and cuisines from across the region. Its central location in the Middle East enables good accessibility to the world's business market. Their trade routes to worldwide markets through fast and efficient access by air, sea and road are a big attraction for businesses. Bahrain is also seen as a gateway to the Gulf which has a market of over 100 million people...

...CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY 1.1 Introduction Modern civilization has become so complicated and sophisticated that to survive one has to be competitive. This compels people to keep themselves informed of all types of happening in the society. And this in turn entails the need for an infrastructure of information. This is the point where information technology or IT becomes most important, as it is the infrastructure that allows us to get information accurately and in time. Before we define information technology, it is important to understand the notion of Data, Information, Technology, and Knowledge. In everyday conversation, people use the terms data and information interchangeably. However, some computer professional make a distinction between the two terms. Data It is the words, numbers, letters, symbol, sound, video and graphics that describe people, events, things and ideas. It is raw facts about people, objects, and events that have little or no meaning. It is the raw material used to create useful information. It becomes information when you use it as the basis for initiating some action or for making a decision. Information It is defined as the words, numbers, letters, symbol, sound, video and graphics used as the basis for human action or decisions. It is data that have been processed and presented in a form suitable for human interpretation, often with the purpose of revealing trends or patterns that can be used in decision-making. It is data...

Given that they operate in over 200 countries, they are faced with a clear choice of whether to standardise their product offerings globally and reap the potential benefits of economies of scale, adapt their offerings to a particular market (which may facilitate increased market specific penetration), or adopt an integrated approach utilising both approaches simultaneously (Vrontis’ AdaptStand approach). There has been much literature written regarding the external and often uncontrollable factors which may impact upon a firms positioning strategy; this paper looks at these externalities and the internal controllables in order to derive a ‘best fit’ strategic and tactical approach. Moreover, this paper looks at the strategic international positioning of Coca-Cola by utilising a number of models.

...SIMPLE SCIENCE EXPERIMENTS HANS JURGEN PRESS 1. Astronomy Image of the Sun Place a pair of binoculars in an open window in the direct path of the sun’s rays. Stand a mirror in front of one eyepiece so that it throws an image of the sun on to the opposite wall of the room. Adjust the mirror until the image is sharp, and darken the room. You would risk damaging your eyes if you looked directly at the sun through binoculars, but you can view the bright disc on the wall as large and clear as in the movies. Clouds and birds passing over can also be distinguished and. if the binoculars are good even sunspots. These are a few hot areas on the glowing sphere, some so big that many terrestrial globes could fit into them. Because of the earth’s rotation, the sun’s image moves quite quickly across the wall. Do not forget to re-align the binoculars from time to time onto the sun. The moon and stars cannot be observed in this way because the light coming from them is too weak. 2. Sun clock Place a flowerpot with a long stick fixed into the hole at the bottom in a spot, which is sunny, all day. The stick’s shadow moves along the rim of the pot as the sun moves. Each hour by the clock mark the position of the shadow on the pot. If the sun is shining, you can read off the time. Because of the rotation of the earth the sun apparently passes over us in a semi-circle. In the morning and evening its shadow strikes the pot superficially, while; it midday, around 12 o’clock...
