A software RAID can also be affected if the host computer is heavily loaded. Heavy processing can cause some pieces of data to be delayed by a small amount of time. These delays can add up, and negate the benefits of the RAID array to some degree. NOTE: A good website to use for RAID illustration is – Http://www.lascon.co.uk/d008005.html References Knowledgebase. (n.d.).
Technology or Business Practice used to augment the solution A business practice that may be used to solve the problems of downsizing due to new software systems being introduced as well as competition from other retailers is enterprise software. Enterprise software is built around thousands of predefined business processes that reflect best practices. Especially when it comes to securing the website, this process would be most beneficial. A good example of this is found in SC Magazine: For IT Security Professionals (15476693); Aug2013, Vol. 24 Issue 8, p47-47, 1p, 1 Color Photograph.
In this journal, Drew discuss the goals of IT security to protect the use of mobile devices in CPA firms and other businesses. His article outlines cybersecurity threats on the mobile and cloud fronts and lists steps that accounting firms, individuals CPAs, and other can take to reduce their risk of suffering a devastating data breach. Drew discusses how the rate of smartphones and tablets sales increase and how it reached 144.4 million units in the first quarter. With the growth of smartphones and tablet increasing, the risk of malicious software have increased. “One of the biggest risks involves employees or executives downloading personally identifying or confidential client information to their personal smartphones or tablets”.
Because many information is stored in few places on the network machines, and many individuals has access to it, important is for organization to build the right architecture of needed database system and have the security policy in place before any of this will be used on a daily basis. The multilevel data distribution should be considered and have a few levels of security that allows not every individual access it to every data but only certain level of information. Architectural design plays important role in this step. Legal Issues Thinking about the legal issues can bring up many questions about what consequences may occur if the organization is not protected by the law in case of stolen data or attack to the database. One of the main issue that companies, individuals or database administrators can face or deal with when it comes to the database system is the copyright laws of the United States.
4.4 Give four general examples of the use of threads in a single-user multiprocessing system. Foreground and background work: For example, in a spreadsheet program, one thread could display menus and read user input, while another thread executes user commands and updates the spreadsheet. This arrangement often increases the perceived speed of the application by allowing the program to prompt for the next command before the previous command is complete. Asynchronous processing: Asynchronous elements in the program can be implemented as threads. For example, as a protection against power failure, one can design a word processor to write its random access memory (RAM) buffer to disk once every minute.
2. Determine if the CMOS still utilizes RAM, requiring a battery on the motherboard, or has evolved into using EEPROM. There are still CMOS that use a battery on the mother board but EEPROM is more popular today. CMOS has since evolved from using a RAM to using EEPROM. It's a long name for a small chip that holds bits of data code that can be rewritten and erased by an electrical charge, one byte at a time.
Labor Supply and Demand of the Technology Boom of the 1990’s The technology boom of the 90’s was a very important time in American history. During this time new technologies were being developed and causing a frenzy in the everyday life of many people, companies, and investors. As new technology, like computers and other electronic, devices became available the demand for these devices became in such demand that it encouraged other manufacturers to produce more technologies to compete with the demand. For instance, AOL was the primary internet provider during the internet craze, which had a modem speed of 56K. Other phone companies and cable companies got in on the market and providing the internet to customers using new fiber optic cables that provided internet speed 100 times faster than the 56K speed previously provided.
Because mobile devices are subjected to hacking at a higher rate than non-mobile devices, the issue becomes more prevalent as the adoption rate of smartphones and other various mobile devices increases. In both the public and private sectors, workers are increasingly creating and sharing information with mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets. It is not uncommon to see employees using these devices to accomplish work for their employers. While this is increasing productivity, without the right protections in place, it can also introduce cyber security threats (Robb, 2011). When you have deployed an application to mobile devices, device users have access to data in the application database.
We are living in a world in which we are increasing relying on computers, and information technology to make our lives better and more efficient. For example, in the past we use to shop in stores, however now-a-days we can do our shopping on sites such as Amazon and eBay, and pay through PayPal. But how secure are these websites, applications, or severs? To answer this question, there are organizations that do nothing but try to hack these, and other, applications. Another example, in the early 2000s there were numerous reports of companies engaging in fraudulent activities.
The business and economic characteristics of the console segment in the video game industry The console segment of the video game industry is characterized by fierce competition among 3 big companies; Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo. These continuously fight to gain more costumers through the focus on the gaming experience of the console achieved through the implemented technology, but also the degree of innovation in this new technology. This has to be implemented in the company’s gaming device and sold at an attractive price to the customers, whilst still achieving the biggest possible profit margin. Therefore the industry is characterized by a focus on economies of scale in order to achieve the lowest
