I need help with a Computer Science question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.

Deliverable A: Create Enterprise Application Plan that look out 3-Years and aligns with the 3-year Business Strategic Plan you created earlier in Project 1 and specific attributes outlined in your Business Process/Application Matrix and BRODE strategies. Enterprise applications could include but not limited to ERP, SCM, CRM, KMS, DSS, etc.

  • Also in this section, define and integrate a mobile application strategy component into your 3-year technology plan and ensuring alignment with business ecosystem; and specifically how it will enable process automation and mobility capabilities in the various functional ares of the business.

attached the project 1 doc.

guideline:Deliverable A (30 Points) – Applications Plan ?Long Range Plan (20 Points): Now create the next 3 year view of BP and EAPs that takes into account the strategy developed earlier (i.e. align with your business strategic plan) Your initial number of BPs may stay the same, increase due to new business activities, or reduce due to house cleaning (your choice). Also, most EAPs are currently available as ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) packages. Evaluate and select some ERPs in terms of the BPs they automate. Your analysis should be shown as an Application Matrix (BPs as rows and ERPs as columns). This matrix, an expansion of the one developed in Project1, should show which ERP packages (indicate the actual commercial packages, e.g., Peoplesoft HR) cover what BPs. For ERP package, give one-two line description showing type of application (e.g., Transaction Processing, Decision Support, Executive Support Systems,,,), and how specifically it will help the company (cost reduction, increase in sale, efficient operation, other). Remember that not all BPs have to be automated. Automation increases cost (do a rough cost-benefit analysis of any 5 BPs to get an idea). ?Mobile App Strategy (10 Points): You attended a conference on Mobile Apps that claimed “ Mobile Apps Can Do Everything”. To prove this claim right or wrong, redraw your Long Range Planning Matrix but use Mobile Apps from Android, IPhone or other suppliers to determine if you can support your entirebusiness with Mobile Apps. Give your conclusions in two sentences (max).

Science and Explanations

Need help with my Science question – I’m studying for my class.

Find specific examples in the media or in life in which someone misunderstands someone else. This happens a lot with political and religious arguments, but it also happens in daily life, especially when we find ourselves in conflict with others. Have you interpreted others uncharitably?

Write: Present a case, either in the media or in your own life, in which someone interpreted another uncharitably. What specifically did the first person say? In what way did the other person understand it? What did the person really mean? Do you think that the misunderstanding was intentional? What were the consequences of the misunderstanding? How might the situation have been better if the person had practiced the principle of charity? Finally, are there areas in which you could do more to understand others favorably? How might you be a wiser person if you did so?

Using the same scenario as Week 1 of this Discussion, answer the question in bold below.

Organizational structure, norms, values, culture, etc., all have an impact on a leader’s success. Consider the new or advancing leader. Such a leader is expected to learn how to effectively perform all of the important administrative and professional/technical tasks. In addition, the leader needs to master the necessary social skills associated with early effectiveness in the new position. Below are 10 “sociopolitical” categories which may influence a transitioning leader’s early (and enduring) effectiveness. These include, in no particular order, the ability to:

  • enter into an established leader/employee “network”;
  • sense, as well as use, appropriate communication and influence behaviors;
  • sense and appropriately act on keen organizational norms;
  • become aware of, and sensitively interact with, organizational “blockers” and “enablers”;
  • build political bridges by identifying and relating to key formal/informal power sources;
  • become known as a “go-to/can-do” individual;
  • be perceived as a “team player”;
  • sense key organizational issues upon which to create early vision, initiatives, and value;
  • identify and appropriately respond to the requirements of superiors/peers/subordinates; and
  • be perceived as having organizationally appropriate ethics, values, and beliefs.

Please note that these are behavioral skill categories, not actual behaviors. You likely use many of the actual behaviors (such as “interpersonal communication”) within a category every day.

Week 1 Discussion Question:

Does this list of “sociopolitical” skill categories match your sense of what is most required to help ensure a leader’s early success in a new role/position? What might you add or subtract to help ensure the most effective transition into a new job?

Practicum Journal: Voluntary and Involuntary Commitment

I’m trying to study for my Nursing course and I need some help to understand this question.

Week 7: Learning and Motor Disorders in Childhood

“I had a substitute teacher today, so it was not a good day. She thought I was goofing off, but I could not help myself. As much as I tried to hold back, knowing she would freak out, I felt like a volcano. I erupted with a sound, kinda like a bullfrog that lasted for almost 10 minutes. She kept telling me to quiet down, but I could not help myself. Then the physical stretching and flexing of my neck started. She was really mad. Finally, my friend told her about me. It was embarrassing.”

Samuel, age 9

Learning disorders represent a diagnostic challenge in that many of the features of learning disorders overlap with ADHD. Appropriate diagnosis is essential to proper treatment. Motor disorders can be a source of considerable distress for both the child and their parents. Appropriate diagnosis is required in order to initiate the most appropriate treatment to minimize the impact of these conditions on the child.

This week, you work with your group again to develop a Parent Guide for an assigned learning or motor disorder. For your practicum, you examine the practice of voluntary and involuntary commitment of children and adolescents with mental health disorders.

Assignment 1: Practicum Journal: Voluntary and Involuntary Commitment

PMHNPs may find themselves working in a wide variety of settings—each having their own unique challenges and inherent legal issues. For instance, what do you do in your state of practice when you are providing a therapy/treatment session and a client reports active suicidal ideation? What do you do if you are covering inpatient psychiatric consults and are called to see a patient in the ICU who overdosed on prescription medication requiring intubation? What do you do if you are a PMHNP on an inpatient unit and a client who admitted themselves on a voluntary basis suddenly states that they have decided to sign themselves out of the hospital so that they can go home to kill themselves? These are just some of the legal questions that PMHNPs must know the answers to specific to their state of licensure/practice.

In this Assignment, you investigate your state’s laws concerning voluntary and involuntary commitment. You also analyze a case to determine if the client is eligible for involuntary commitment.

Scenario for Week 7 Case:

You are a PMHNP working in a large intercity hospital. You receive a call from the answering service informing you that a “stat” consult has been ordered by one of the hospitalists in the ICU. Upon arriving in the ICU, you learn that your consult is a 14 year old male who overdosed on approximately 50 Benadryl (diphenhydramine hydrochloride) tablets in an apparent suicide attempt. At the scene, a suicide note was found indicating that he wanted to die because his girlfriend’s parents felt that their daughter was too young to be “dating.” The client stated in the suicide note that he could not “live without her” and decided to take his own life. Although he has been medically stabilized and admitted to the ICU, he has been refusing to talk with the doctors or nurses. The hospital staff was finally able to get in touch with the clients parents (using contact information retrieved from the 14 year old’s cell phone). Unbeknown to the hospital staff, the parents are divorced, and both showed up at the hospital at approximately the same time, each offering their own perspectives on what ought to be done. The client’s father is demanding that the client be hospitalized because of the suicide, but his mother points out that he does not have “physical custody” of the child. The client’s mother demands that the client be discharged to home with her stating that her son’s actions were nothing more than a “stunt” and “an attempt at manipulating the situation that he didn’t like.” The client’s mother then becomes “nasty” and informs you that she works as a member of the clerical staff for the state board of nursing, and if you fail to discharge her child “right now” she will make you “sorry.” How would you proceed?

Learning Objectives

Students will:
  • Evaluate clients for voluntary commitment
  • Evaluate clients for involuntary commitment based on state laws
  • Recommend actions for supporting parents of clients not eligible for involuntary commitment
  • Recommend actions for treating clients not eligible for involuntary commitment

To Prepare for this Practicum:

  • Review the Learning Resources concerning voluntary and involuntary commitment.
  • Read the Week 7 Scenario in your Learning Resources.
  • Research your state’s laws concerning voluntary and involuntary commitment.

The Assignment (2pages):

  • Based on the scenario, would you recommend that the client be voluntarily committed? Why or why not?
  • Based on the laws in your state, would the client be eligible for involuntary commitment? Explain why or why not.
  • Did understanding the state laws confirm or challenge your initial recommendation regarding involuntarily committing the client? Explain.
  • If the client were not eligible for involuntary commitment, explain what actions you may be able to take to support the parents for or against voluntary commitment.
  • If the client were not eligible for involuntary commitment, explain what initial actions you may be able to take to begin treating the client.

Can you help me understand this Marketing question?

Social class and income can be important predictors of purchases. For this assignment, discuss what types of purchases that each (social class and income) is most likely associated with, and what types of purchases are associated with the combination of the two.

Next, find three advertisements, one each, targeting these:

  • A specific type of social class
  • A specific level of income
  • The combination of an income category and social class

For each ad, analyze the price of the item (e.g., high, medium, or low) being advertised and evaluate any symbolic aspects associated with the item. Identify specific visual cues in the advertisement tied to social class or income levels and describe who the marketer is targeting. Discuss whether you believe the ad is effective from a consumer behavior perspective.
