...Running head: PROBLEM SOLUTION: M-CORE Problem Solution: M-Core Problem Solution: M-Core M-Core is at the head of their industry and has planned to move forward with developing their new facility in New Oxford, a green environment. In becoming a part of the New Oxford community, M-Core will have an opportunity to embrace and become involved with the community’s needs and the environment that has become protected, helping to secure the future of the people while working within the company’s estimated budgets and timeframes. Describe the Situation Issue and Opportunity Identification M-Core is having difficult y negotiating acceptable deals with the remaining homeowners causing delays towards the development of the new research and development facility. The opportunity M-Core has is to develop creative ideas to resolve the conflict with the resistant homeowners by creating an alliance with Nature’s Gift Society through the implementation of a green plan during planning, developing, and implementing phases of their new facility. By creating the alliance, Nature’s Gift may ease the negotiations with the homeowners, minimize the need for legal actions to take the properties from the remaining homeowners, and avoid need for the Mayor’s involvement. Stakeholder Perspectives/Ethical Dilemmas M-Core desires to gain additional acreage to develop their facility to create the “chip” and a better workplace, while developing on land that displays serenity to inspire...

...Running head: PROBLEM SOLUTION: M-CORE Problem Solution: M-Core University of Phoenix Problem Solution: M-Core Hoping to expand its operations to a new 90-acre facility, M-Core finds itself in conflict with local landowners who are unwilling to sell the homes necessary for the full expansion. According to Wilmot & Hocker (2007), “Conflict is an expressed struggle between at least two interdependent parties who perceive incompatible goals, scarce resources, and interference from others in achieving their goals” (Chapter 1). M-Core and the homeowners are in conflict because they are interdependent. According to Wilmot & Hocker (2007), “Conflict parties engage in an expressed struggle and interfere with one another because they are interdependent. Each person’s choices affect the other because conflict is a mutual activity” (Chapter 1). M-Core has the opportunity to build strong community ties if this conflict can be resolved peacefully. The mayor of the small town hopes to see his community grow and feels that the M-Core expansion provides a great opportunity to do just that. Describe the Situation Issue and Opportunity Identification M-Core is having troubles resolving the conflict with the landowners that are holding out. This is having a significant impact on the progress of the expansion process. Amidst all of the negotiations and the surrounding tensions, M-Core has many opportunities at hand as well. First, M-Core can build community relations...

...Running head: PROBLEM SOLUTION: M-CORE Problem Solution: M-Core Turkessa Amoah University of Phoenix Problem Solution: M-Core M-Core is a subsidiary of Silatel Corporation. M-Core is a company that develops and multi-core processing chips for computers. M-Core prides itself on its revolutionary technology and is attempting to combine four or more processors on a single chip. “If successful the processors will provide 10 times the processing power of current high-speed processors that are available on the market, while at the same time eating up less energy.” (University of Phoenix, n.d.) In order to facilitate M-Core in the production of the new processor chips Silatel has purchased a research facility in New Oxford to use as a manufacturing plant. New Oxford is a small New England Town. The people of New Oxford are mainly hardworking, laid back people who are very proud of their homes and neighborhood. Many of the residents of New Oxford welcome the new facility, as a way to increase revenue for the area and create much needed new jobs. M-Core is attempting to build the new facility by purchasing the homes of the residents who currently occupy the land for a price above what the homes are worth. Most of the residents have been happy to take the company up on its offer but three residents have been unwilling to relocate and sell their homes. M-Core has asked the local politicians, including the mayor to help persuade the residents to sell their land. This paper will...

Van Dyke University of Phoenix Problem Solution: M-Core [Triple click anywhere in this paragraph to begin typing your introduction.] Describe the Situation Issue and Opportunity Identification M-Core cannot expand without first dealing with the nonemployment disputes that have arisen as a result of their expansion project. The three holdout residents are similar in that they are steadfast in their beliefs to stay in their homes, although their reasons why are much different. Not only does M-Core have a responsibility to their parent company, Silatel Corp., they also have significant ties to the community leaders within the New Oxford City Council. A third party constituent, The Nature’s Gift Society, has also pledged funds to come to the aid of the holdout residents if need be. Addressing the conflict and resolving the disputes must be handled in an efficient and timely manner. Concerns over broken friendships, animosity, and lack of trust with the company and the Council are all valid concerns the company and community leaders have. By resolving the issue with the holdout residents first, the conflict or interference from the society should go away.

...An Analysis of Linux Scalability to Many Cores Silas Boyd-Wickizer, Austin T. Clements, Yandong Mao, Aleksey Pesterev, M. Frans Kaashoek, Robert Morris, and Nickolai Zeldovich MIT CSAIL A BSTRACT This paper analyzes the scalability of seven system applications (Exim, memcached, Apache, PostgreSQL, gmake, Psearchy, and MapReduce) running on Linux on a 48core computer. Except for gmake, all applications trigger scalability bottlenecks inside a recent Linux kernel. Using mostly standard parallel programming techniques— this paper introduces one new technique, sloppy counters—these bottlenecks can be removed from the kernel or avoided by changing the applications slightly. Modifying the kernel required in total 3002 lines of code changes. A speculative conclusion from this analysis is that there is no scalability reason to give up on traditional operating system organizations just yet. but the other applications scale poorly, performing much less work per core with 48 cores than with one core. We attempt to understand and fix the scalability problems, by modifying either the applications or the Linux kernel. We then iterate, since fixing one scalability problem usually exposes further ones. The end result for each application is either good scalability on 48 cores, or attribution of non-scalability to a hard-to-fix problem with the application, the Linux kernel, or the underlying hardware. The analysis of whether the kernel design is compatible with scaling rests on the extent to which...

...PROBLEM STATEMENT:- Develop a complete marketing strategy for Cialis identifying the target market and a way to position it against competition. SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS:- Cialis’s major competitor is Viagra, an established market leader. Not only had Viagra been generating over $ 1 billion in sales annually for 3 consecutive years but also it also enjoyed the highest brand recognition. Viagra has settled in its product life cycle and now doctors revealed a certain degree of contentment with Viagra. Also Pfizer is a big pharmaceutical player who can spend more on R&D, marketing and advertisements. So to compete with them on that front is not a good option. So, during marketing, company must focus on better values provided by Cialis. Levitra provides less threat as its segment is target to diabetic patients with ED and also it has tied up with GlaxoSmithKline for US market. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES OVER VIAGRA: The competitive edge that Cialis has is, it is a superior product than Viagra in following ways: * It is a safer method as it has very few side effects as compared to Viagra, i.e. no visual irregularities etc. * More efficient, lasts up to 36 hours, so the spouse doesn’t feel they have to have sex after the pill is taken. Hence a bigger window of opportunity * Faster onset time and absorption not affected by food intake. * Have already learned from Viagra’s mistakes, i.e. the knowledge that it cannot be used with nitrates without any fatalities could...

...Intravenous access is a problem in the facility I work. The nurses and doctors spend lots of time trying to start lines on patient who have compromise vascular system. The, nurses and doctors identified the problems concerning intravenous access, and did research, and they found other hospitals were using Intraosseous Infusion System and introduce this procedure to the CEO. Policy analysts use different methods to assess a problem and determine alternatives ways to resolve it (Mason, J.D., Leavitt, K. J., Chaffee, M. W. pg. 5). A policy was adopted from other hospitals, formulated, implemented. Evaluation of the policy is now in effect as of march two-thousand and thirteen. Policy analysts are individuals who with professional training and experience, analyze problems and weigh potential solutions (Mason, J.D., Leavitt, K. J., Chaffee, M. W. pg. 5). All staff was educated through the nurse educators on the intraosseous vascular access. Intraosseous vascular access is safe, costs effective and for patients in the hospital setting. Using the EZ- Intraosseous Infusion System is a complete solution for immediate vascular access — whether you’re facing difficult vascular access challenges or need immediate intraosseous access for critical situations and life-threatening emergencies.
