...Current Marketing Situation The primary target market for UScoot is college students enrolled at Ole Miss. Parking on campus is getting worse and worse, and the situation is opening up a very large market for alternate transportation. Ole Miss is closing in on 20,000 students, and the university plans to continually increase enrollment, which will continually increase the size of UScoot’s target market. A secondary market for Uscoot will be campus employees. There are more than 2,500 Ole Miss employees, many of whom are searching for alternate transportation just as the students are, and as student enrollment rises, Ole Miss will have to employ even more people, and this will increase the size of the secondary market as well. Obviously, UScoot will available to anyone who wants to use the service, but the biggest portion of the business will definitely be centered around Ole Miss students. There are 38,000 residents in the city of Oxford, and these 38,000 residents represent the total market for UScoot. The size of the target market is between 15,000 and 20,000, which represents all students enrolled at the university. UScoot will only need to capture about 1% of this market to be profitable. It is not at all unreasonable to believe that UScoot can achieve this number of customers very quickly, and the potential for growth past that number is excellent as well. Enrollment will continue to rise, and the popularity of UScoot is bound to increase as more and more people learn...

...Coming back home after a long and exhausting day at school, the one thing I desire is peace and quiet. I lay there, still in my bed. The only movement is in my wrists from the swift flicking of pages of the book ‘Twenties Girl’ written by Sophie Kinsella. The amity is so divine, so serene, so heavenly and tranquil. If anything could be as close to heaven, this would be it…. BRING! BRING! BRING! BRING! Suddenly the dream I considered reality, was viciously awoken by the sound of the ear-splitting entry phone. OH GOD! What I was dreading the most has finally arrived at my doorstep! I know you are thinking “Who’s at the door? A crazy old women? A mental asylum patient? A serial killer?!” But no. None of those. Unfortunately, it’s worse! My infuriating little cousin. I guess dear listeners, that by now you’ve figured what my topic is. Yes. Annoying children. You may think that I am a stone hearted, droning, inconsiderate teenager rambling on about annoying children. But the fact of the matter is that if there is one thing that I absolutely cannot tolerate, it is my peace being destructed by these aggravating, bothersome, petty children, and especially then, when there is a multitude of them. It’s been about three weeks now, since these rebellious guests attacked the harmony from within my peaceful home, which has thankfully, now been restored after the departure of these insolent beings. I was in my room, trying to concentrate on reading my book in peace and it felt impossible...

...“You can resign and go to SBS,” the drivers were told by Vincent Wijeysingha on Sunday, 2 December 2012 at 21:52 · The government has acted in our name as is its duty. It purged an industrial action and returned the nation to business as usual. The bus drivers from SMRT recklessly involved themselves in an illegal strike after refusing to bring their grievances to management or their trade union or seek the assistance of the Manpower Ministry. Twenty-nine have been deported, one hundred and fifty more issued a police warning and the five ringleaders will be tried. Industrial harmony has been restored, the tripartite relationship upheld, and public disorder averted. As fortunate citizens of this prosperous and stable nation, we can heave a sigh of relief. Those refractory foreigners got what they deserved. How dare they come to our land - which our government built from a fishing village - and demand such indulgences as suitable accommodation and an equal wage. Nobody promised them any of that: if they aren’t happy here they can fuck off back home. There are too many damn foreigners here as it is. The come here to steal our jobs, marry our women, clog the trains, explode housing prices, beat up taxi drivers, and drive Ferraris too fast. They dance outside Wisma Atria and jam the staircases at Lucky Plaza. Oh, and they smell. And talk too loudly. In strange accents. In short, they are audacious and unpleasant. Oh, and they smell.

...Explain what a System Bus is and why it is needed ? By: Katina Howard Prof: CLIFTON-HOWELL Date: Jan.31, 2013 INTRO TO TECHNOLOGY A system bus is a single computer bus that connects the major components of a computer system. The technique was developed to reduce costs and improve modularity. It combines the functions of a data bus to carry information, an address bus to determine where it should be sent, and a control bus to determine its operation. Although popular in the 1970s and 1980s, modern computers use a variety of separate buses adapted to more specific needs. The System Bus provides even more modularity with reduced cost, memory and I/O buses (and the required control and power buses) were sometimes combined into a single unified system bus. The modularity and cost became important as computers became small enough to fit in a single cabinet (and customers expected similar price reductions). Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) further reduced cost for mass-produced minicomputers, and memory-mapped I/O into the memory bus, so that the devices appeared to be memory locations. This was implemented in the Unibus of the PDP-11 around 1969, eliminating the need for a separate I/O Even computers such as the PDP-8 without memory-mapped I/O were soon implemented with a system bus, which allowed modules to be plugged into any slot. Some authors called this a new streamlined "model" of computer architecture. Many early microcomputers (with a CPU generally on a single integrated...

...Given a flip-flop circuit, Determine how the circuit will behave for a sequence of inputs. Be able to use a flip-flop to store a single bit. Basic Circuit Here's a basic circuit that involves just two NAND gates. There are two inputs to this circuit, X and Y. Can you generate a truth table for this circuit? * Note that there is no connection where the two wires running from the output back to the input cross. Let's address that issue of the truth table. Here is a truth table for you to fill in. (Print this web page if you want to work on it.) X | Y | P | Q | 0 | 0 | | | 0 | 1 | | | 1 | 0 | | | 1 | 1 | | | Let's review what you know about this circuit. We can focus on what happens when X= 0, and Y = 0, the first entry in the truth table above. * If X = 0, then P = 1. We know that if either input to a NAND gate is 0, the output is 1. * Now. try to take advantage of the knowledge that P = 1. If P = 1 AND Y = 0, then Q = 1. It doesn't matter what P is, as long as Y = 0, Q will be 1. * That gives us the first entry in the truth table above. Here's the truth table with what we have figured out so far.

...AVR312: Using the USI module as a I2C slave Features • • • • C-code driver for TWI slave, with transmit and receive buffers Compatible with Philips' I2C protocol Interrupt driven, detection and transmission/reception Wake up from all sleep mode, including Power Down 8-bit Microcontrollers Application Note 1 Introduction The Two Wire serial Interface (TWI) is compatible with Philips' I2C protocol. The bus was developed to allow simple, robust and cost effective communication between integrated circuits in electronics. The strengths of the TWI bus includes the capability of addressing up to 128 devices on the same bus, arbitration, and the possibility to have multiple masters on the bus. The Universal Serial Interface (USI) module on devices such as ATmega169, ATtiny26 and ATtiny2313, has a dedicated Two-wire mode. The USI provides the basic hardware resources needed for synchronous serial communication. Combined with a minimum of control software, the USI allows higher transfer rates and uses less code space than solutions based on software only. Interrupts are included to minimize the processor load. This document describes how to use the USI for TWI slave communication. Source code for communication drivers for transmission and reception is provided. The code is complete with both data buffer handling and combined transmitter and receiver. Rev. 2560C-AVR-09/05 2 Theory This section gives a short description of the TWI and USI interfaces...
