Describe data and process modeling, and name the main data and process modeling techniques. Data and process modelling uses a variety of techniques to represent an information system and processes and data flow contained within the information system. Methods of data and process modelling can include DFD's (Data Flow Diagrams), object modelling and entity-relationship diagrams. (https://ict108businessinformatics.wikispaces.com/Questions+Week+5) 2. Describe the Gane and Sarson symbols used for processes, data flows, data stores, and entities. Give four examples of typical names for processes, data flows, data stores, and entities. http://www.softtester.org/portfolio/cis244/assignment8.html 3.

...Static Electricity; Electric Charge and Its conservation Static Electricity – amber effect, Electric charge Unlike charges attract, like charges repel. Two types of electric charge: positive and negative (amber). (By Benjamin Franklin) Whenever a certain amount of charge is produced on one object, an equal amount of the opposite type of charge is produced on another object. Net change in the amount of charge produced is zero. Charges are separated, but the sum of the two is zero. Law of conservation of electric charge – the amount of electric charge produced in any process is zero: no net electric charge can be created or destroyed. If one object acquires a positive charge, then an equal amount of negative charge will be found in neighboring areas or objects. Electric Charge in the Atom Atom – tiny but heavy, positively charged nucleus surrounded by one or more negatively charged electrons. Nucleus – contains protons, neutrons. Protons – positive Electrons – negative Neutrons – no net electric charge. All protons and all electrons have exactly the same magnitude of electric charge; but are opposite. Neutral atoms contain equal numbers of protons and electrons. Atom may lose one or more of its electrons or may gain extra electrons, in which case it will have a net positive or negative charged called ion. When an object is neutral, it contains equal amounts of positive and negative charge. Object by rubbing can be explained by the transfer of electrons...

...Film Viewer Opinion Billy Green University of Phoenix Introduction to Film Studies HUM/159 Wendy Hamilton February 19, 2011 Film Viewer Opinion In today’s society, there are many different film types to watch. The different films range from the Disney movies that you may show your preschoolers and elementary kids to PG-13 movies that may be appropriate for the middle school age and high school age to the rated R movies that may be appropriate for adults only. Within all these rated films you can find action, suspense, drama, Sci-Fi, horror, comedy, musical, and many more types. Even though there are many different films for different types of viewers: drama, action, suspense are my favorite films because they can be very eye-catching and these films keep my attention. I decide on most of the films that I watch based on the type of film produced by the filmmaker and others. For example, being as though I personally know I am not a supporter of Sci-Fi movies, I wouldn’t entertain the fact of showing interest in viewing that type of films. I usually tend to stick to the movie type that I am interested within and looking at the previews can play a huge decision maker whether or not I would view the film. Ninety percent of the films that I have viewed were introduced to me by watching to preview first. I usually can determine whether or not the film would be of my interest after viewing the previews. I am mostly interested by drama, action, and suspense films...
