...government to develop and deploy advanced network applications and technologies, accelerating the creation of tomorrow's Internet.” (https://www.wpi.edu/.../Internet2/about.html) Over the years and as the Internet gained popularity, universities were the first organizations to recognize the limitations of bandwidth as it relates to data transfer rates and the need to share information and collaborate with other research institutes, universities, and colleagues. The need to support high performance applications and share information lead to the creation of the vBNS or very-high-performance Backbone Network Service in 1995 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet2). With a consortium of various investors and partnerships including the National Science Foundation, MCI, Qwest, Level3, and 30+ universities, Internet2 was formed. Through this consortium “Internet2 provides the U.S. research and education community with a network that satisfies their bandwidth-intensive requirements. The network itself is a dynamic, robust and cost-effective hybrid optical and packet network. It furnishes a 100 Gbit/s network backbone to more than 210 U.S. educational institutions, 70 corporations and 45 non-profit and government agencies.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet2) Their goals include creating and maintaining a leading-edge network, exploiting broadband capabilities through new-generation applications, and new network services for all levels of educational use, with hopes to expand...

ES3 states that senior positions have collaborated with audit engagement for a continuous period should be rotating.

...[pic] Jacobs Division 2003 Richard Soderberg, financial analyst for the Jacobs Division of MacFadden Chemical Company, was reviewing several complex issues relating to possible investment in a new product for the following year, 2004. The product was a specialty coating material, which qualified for investment according to company guidelines. Mr. Reynolds, however, the Jacobs Division manager, was fearful that it might be too risky. While regarding the project as an attractive opportunity, Mr. Soderberg believed that the only practical way to sell the product in the short run would place it in a weak competitive position over the long run. He was also concerned that the estimates used in the probability analysis were little better than educated guesses. Company Background MacFadden Chemical Company was one of the larger chemical firms in the world, with sales in excess of $10 billion. Its volume had grown steadily at the rate of 10 percent per year throughout the 1980s until 1993; sales and earnings had grown more rapidly. Beginning in 1993, the chemical industry began to experience overcapacity, particularly in basic materials, which led to price cutting. Also, more funds had to be spent in marketing and research for firms to remain competitive. As a consequence of the industry problems, MacFadden achieved only a modest growth of 4 percent in sales in the 1990’s and experienced an overall decline in profits. Certain shortages began developing...

...under highly stressed and unpredictable conditions because of not only the market-oriented reform of power systems but also the integration of various renewable energy sources. The uncertain factors resulting from the market constraints and the inherent randomness of renewable energy set higher requirements on the reliability of electric networks. This paper presents the reliability assessment of Bangladesh Power System (BPS). Reliability index, loss of load probability (LOLP) of BPS is evaluated using cumulant method. The rationale for using the cumulant method is to take advantage of its computational efficiency. BPS has sixty one generators and a total installed capacity of 5275 MW. The maximum demand of BPS is about 5000 MW. The relevant data of the generators and hourly load profiles are collected from the National Load Dispatch Center (NLDC) of Bangladesh and reliability index ‘LOLP’ is assessed. The simulation results show that the LOLP of BPS is 2.06%. Keywords—cumulant method, convolution, LOLP, forced outage rate, Gram-Charlier series Introduction An electric utility’s main concern is to plan, design, operate and maintain its power supply to provide an acceptable level of reliability to its users. This clearly requires that standards of reliability be specified and used in all three sectors of the power system, i.e., generation, transmission and distribution....
