...In the future, I see tablets taking over the computer in the home, office/work place and in our schools. We can already see some of this taking place now. Testing for the work place and schools is taking place all over our country. In the home, the tablet is becoming more and more dominate. On society as a whole, tablets are saving us time, money and overall making our lives easier. Schools are implementing tablets in students’ lives, making learning easier, saving tax dollars. Students are able to access the internet from where they sit in the class room, instead of wanting on their turn at the computer or going to the library, both are at the touch of their fingers. In the work place, it is saving us time, money and energy. Employees are accessing information/documentation from the office everywhere they go. In the home, the tablets are easing our minds and making our lives easier by the touch of finger. Apps on these tablets are the can help keep our homes and families safer by turning on and off our lights, setting the “forgotten” security system, closing the garage door, turning on security cameras so we can see who is home, (such as our children), if they are supposed to be there or not, and list can go on and on. On economy, it is constantly changing. For the publishing world, it seems the tablets are causing decreases in actual published material and increasing the digital published material. People are changing to digital for several reasons; the biggest...

...Research Paper Number 2 Have you watched Family Guy where the character “stewie” is able to travel back in time and/or the future revisit or relive events? The next amazing technology that will be available is the new time machine. This device is compact and looks just like a watch but instead of telling the current date and time, this device is going to be able to allow you select the date and time where you would like to travel. Picture this, want to know what the answers are going to be on your next quiz in Professor Frierson’s Problem Solving class? Well guess what you can time travel into the future to get the correct answers and make an “A” Don’t feel like coming to class? You can miss class get counted absent and travel back in time to be marked present. Of course there are so many other reasons that you can travel in time and accomplish such as saving someone’s life, modifying different events such as preventing wars, changing your wealth and education, changing laws and preferences. In the future you can view all of the changes that you have made in the present and past. The great thing about the time travel is that you can travel to in the future and scope out what has been affected and if it is something that you don’t like, then you can always travel back in the past and make changes to what you see fit. Another great reason to have a time travel device would be if there is a part of you past that you wish that you can just relive, you can always go back and relive...

...Future Statement For this report I am to write of a technology that I could see evolving in the near future and so the technology I could possibly see becoming widespread is micro chip implantation , able to store, transmit, and capture data in real time with other chips or servers like using your identification or even a debit card to even a hand held gps unit and compacting it all into a chip the size of a eraser and implanting it into a humans limb now this by its self is amazing but then the limitations grow exponentially. The first impact this could have would be with Society. Now Society as a whole might clash with this concept at first due to some fundamental human traits such as invasion of privacy, This chip if left unchecked could function the same as a gps unit and give someone the ability to track individuals making such things as missing person’s would be much easier to find. The second impact would be Economy. This could change everything we know about current banking practices by allowing your banking information to implanted on this micro chip and injected in to yourself so that instead of swiping a card your data is automatically registered and updated with your actual bank to route funds and make payments and deposits. The third and final impact I could foresee is Politics. Now imagine a world where your personal and life data is stored on your body and can be accessed there would surely be very little information that could not be accessed either by...

...Future Statement Genetic Engineering is in its infancy stage today. We have grasped the concept of it, but implementing all but the most simple of changes is still beyond us. I see many options in this field. From modifying our cells to resist diseases and cancer, to merging our DNA with the DNA of animals. The way I see things unfolding, keeping in mind how society is like today, only the people who make a decent amount of money can afford to get their DNA modified the way they want. Diseases will never go away due to new unforeseen possibilities. Athletes will have modified their DNA to add the strength ratio of a chimp or gorilla to be better at sports. With the rate at how long it takes the majority of the people to accept a new way of life (look at gay rights for example), buy the time the masses can change their DNA, they would have many rules and regulations up and running to make sure people can’t abuse the new found power. In fact by that time there will be failsafe’s added so a criminal can’t go on a warpath and kill thousands of innocent people. Businesses will use it to their advantage as well. If you need a security guard for the night shift, why not give him night vision on top of anything else that would be needed. We could finally explore the planet in its entirety due to being able to adapt to any place on it. Even with all the possible good, the down side to this is possible mutations. We could be no longer considered human. We could even go as far as losing...

...Tyrel Cain 10/232014 GS1140 Future Statement The technology that I chose to write about is the computer on the go technology like tablets, computers on the wrist and also the best computer of them all the cellphone. This technology will be the corner stone of the future there will be no need to have one at home and even a physical one at all because everything will be implanted into your body with a chip at the back of your head and the keyboard implanted into your hand. I know this sounds a little weird getting implants but in the future they will be installed once you are born and changed out as you grow up so it will become a normal part of society. With this I think that peoples personal information would definitely be more secure because there would be no way that you would leave your cell phone because its implanted in you and no one can just pick it up and walk away or pick your pockets for your credit cards because everything is in an online system. It would greatly help education because all you have to do is set the subject that you want to study on a link to your brain and you would study as you sleep so when you wake up you know everything that you put to play while you were sleep it is more convenient and you won’t have to take away hours from regular daily tasks to study because you do that as you sleep. The best part of this technology is the security system it wouldn’t be a tradition password or code the locks to programs and bank accounts and anything personal...

...Unit 5: Future Statement Problem Solving Theory Mr. Hall By: Zachary Taylor April 13, 2015 What does the future hold? I believe that the future is going to hold much advancement in technology that will continue to change how we live everyday life. Just look at our civilization 100 years ago. At that time the automobile was just starting to become popular. At that time the computer did not exist, and when humanity finally invented it, it was the size of an entire room. Now we can basically carry small computers, called smartphones, right in our pockets. In this paper I will discuss a technology that I believe is going to take over the video gaming industry. There is a misconception on what the first videogame actually was. Most people would when asked would say Pong, Pac-Man, or Asteroids. These games came about in the 1970’s and 1980’s. The first actual videogame, however, was created in 1958 by William Higinbothan, who was a physicist in the employment of the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Since then, like all of the other technology we have, the video game industry has continued to be revolutionized, with new consoles coming out that can perform faster, and with higher graphics than its predecessor. We are at the point where current video games have such high graphics, that they literally look like real life. Now that we have hit that threshold, a big question for many gamers was what is next? Where do we go from here? I believe the answer is Virtual Reality Gaming...

...Future Statement Arcacia Godfrey 2/10/15 Ms.Phillip Imagine that the world had more energy. What if you could always wake-up refreshed? Imagine 15 years from now, on every street corner in America and around the world their where “Dream Stations”. A place where you could go in like your local coffee shop or internet café, step into a selected booth and capture a full 8 hours of rest in a matter of 15-20 min!!! Imagine a world filled with energetic and productive people, who only make for a better, more rested society. Enter your “Dream Station” and Rev-Up!! The booth would have a walk up space and an area for your head, to put on a specially designed helmet that puts you to sleep in an instant. The signals and frequency’s coming from the helmet, would send signals to the respected part of the brain for sleep and energy. It would bring you to a trance like state, to give you what feels like a full night’s sleep! It would also go to another phase, where a few minutes before your time is finished, it would go to an energy reboot stage, where it enhances your alertness, thinking, and awareness before you disconnect from your headset. This would be the most revolutionary thing that our society has seen. This could actually make for a better society. Imagine the productivity that would be accomplished if people could stop to rest literally! Our society would run smoother, and more efficiently. No more grumpiness because of tiredness or lack of sleep and energy. This would greatly...

...The future has many possibilities, positive and negative. There are endless amounts of studies and research being done to help bring forth tomorrow and a legacy we’re proud to leave to our children. One of the major problems we’re facing today is Oxygen consumption. We have no way of producing Oxygen efficiently, other than photosynthesis. Well, a student of the Royal College of Art by the name of Julian Melchiorri, along with help from the Tufts University Silk Lab, has helped us take a giant leap towards a real solution. They have created a synthetic leaf that breathes just like a real one. “The leaf is made up of chloroplasts from plant cells, the part where photosynthesis happens, suspended in a web of silk protein. The protein was extracted from natural silk fibers” (International Business Times, 2014). This means that, with a small amount of energy, water, and light, we can produce fresh Oxygen anywhere without the limitations of agriculture. “My idea was to use the efficiency of nature in a man-made environment” (Hobson, 2014). The first thought that comes to mind when those words were uttered: Deep-Sea and Space Travel. If we are able to produce Oxygen synthetically, then we no longer need Oxygen tanks for submarines or spacecraft. We can traverse all of these new reigns without worry of running out of breathable air. Who knows what we’ll find there? Most likely case, we’ll discover species we’ve never known to exist, and those that were only rumors for generations....

...successfulness and accurateness of their forecasting. For successful forecasting, the forecaster needs to have a clear understanding of the current business activities, past trends, and the company’s business strategy. Case 5 exhibits key principles on the way financial forecasting is done. Understanding the Financial Relationships of the Business Enterprise Forecasters use current information to predict the future business activities of the company. This information is found on the financial statements of the company. For example, the balance sheet provides a snapshot of the business’ assets, liabilities and equity at a specific point in time, whereas the incomes statement provides a view of the flow of costs during a specific time frame. Financial ratios measure the relationships between various items on the financial statements. By comparing various ratios with those of previous years, trends can be identified. Because many financial ratios tend to be preserved over time, these ratios are very valuable for the forecaster. The forecaster can estimate only one financial statement line item and, by applying this number to the various ratios, he can make a complete forecast. Grounding Business Forecasts in the Reality of the Industry and Macroenvironment An accurate forecast is made by recognizing not only internal data, but also external data. The environment a business operates in has a great impact on...

...KUDLER FINE FOODS Problem Statement End Vision Statement Kudler Fine Foods: Problem Statement An essential component to the future growth of Kudler Fine Foods can be achieved by employing a larger workforce to effectively manage daily operations while meeting and exceeding customer needs. Kudler Fine Foods: End Vision Kathy Kudler has discovered a unique niche in the grocery business. By continuing to offer high quality, gourmet products with little to no competition, Kathy has this market cornered. Her opportunity for future success is high. However, a large part of her business depends on providing superior customer service, in addition to providing unique products. With her desire to expand and grow her company by adding additional store locations, Kathy will not realize her goal unless she increases the size of her workforce. In order to successfully grow her company, Kathy will need to hire more employees before she actually needs them. The process will consist of advertising available positions; filtering applications for qualified candidates; scheduling and conducting interviews; researching and verifying references and credentials; making offers; and last but not least, orienting and training new employees. Due to the number of staff she will need to hire, Kathy will have to complete this process many times over. Clearly the process is extremely time consuming and tedious. Kathy should first consider hiring a person well trained and experienced...

...Literature Review While completing the task statements and the KSA statements I realized that this type of job analysis could be very effective when creating a new position. There are many different strategies that have been used to determine what type of analysis should be used for what each individual company may need. I came across an article that did a study and review on what KSA’s would be required to do a job analysis that was based on groups, in order to determine what KSA’s are needed for teamwork. The study concentrated on three areas based on groups. The first one was KSA’s instead of personality traits. Second, team KSA’s as opposed to technical KSA’s and last team versus individual analysis. The article stated that focusing on KSA’ s characterize traits such as trust, helpfulness and supportiveness which are all excellent traits to have when working with a team. The study focused more on team instead of technical KSA’s because team was directed more towards social and interpersonal skills that are needed for teamwork. The team versus individual part of the study focused on each individual within the team specifically because each team member is an individual hired separately from the other team members and when they are evaluated that is also on an individual basis. So to focus on the team itself would not be fair to each individual. I read another article that talked about strategic job analysis and hoe the KSA’s are used to measure the effective performance...

...success in the predictions. Also, the predictions may only be short-term future predictions. The article, ‘Financial Ratios, Discriminant Analysis and the Prediction of Corporate Bankruptcy’ proved that ratios used as part of a model were extremely accurate in predicting bankruptcy up to two years prior to the actual event. The ‘discriminant-ratio model’ was developed to bridge the gap between traditional ratio analysis and other statistical techniques which had become popular, as at this time there seemed to be a move toward the elimination of traditional ratio analysis in assessing future firm performance. The model sampled thirty-six firms and placed them in one of two groups: bankrupt and non-bankrupt. From this point, balance sheet and income statement data was collected and five ratios calculated and placed in the model calculation. The model was found to be 94% accurate in predicting bankruptcy two years prior to the actual event. This article was important, as it showed that individual ratio measurements take on great significance when integrated with analytical discriminant analysis, but only in the short-term. The article ‘Are Financial Measures Leading Indicators of Firm Performance’ also indicated that no one ratio is superior in predicting future performance, but rather, if certain ratios are used in conjunction with market information, there may be increased accuracy in predicting short-term future performance. Financial ratios, as well as any other accounting information...

...Michael Maung NSCI 501 Jarvis Communication Corporation Case study Mission Statement "To become your daily-life communication devices' provider in the United States" In order to meet this mission statement I would like to propose following three strategies: Strategy One Jarvis Communication should come up with new ideas, talents and methodologies to manufacture new products to the market. In this case, this company needs to consider "time is the essence" factor. Many competitors will emerge from different parts of the world in not very distance future, as quoted in this case "Keeping a flow of new products will be necessary to survive". The company should set their two main goals for next year. The first goal is to introduce consumers with innovative products and second goal would be to market these products in specific targeted time frame. The objective of Jarvis Communication should be 30% increase of new products design and those developed as prototype as well. This objective will lead Jarvis Communication to become one of the leaders in product development. Jarvis Communication should give great effort to meet their objective as one of the leading industry in time to market, it should strive to meet 30% increase in manufacturing volume without any decrease in its quality of the products. Also, 20% in new prototype development is also needed to be in its consideration. Strategy Two This second strategy is about strategic alignment...
