BACKGROUND
There is a strong need and business case for standardization of technologies and requirements used to design, build, and implement solutions for the 24 Presidential Priority E-Gov initiatives. Without standardization and the recommendation of technologies, agencies risk building and deploying solutions that use proprietary technologies, are not aligned to the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) and isolate themselves from other initiatives and cross-agency business functions. To mitigate these risks, the FEAProgram
Management Office (PMO) created a Component-Based Architecture that defines a set of recommendations that should be considered when selecting the tools, technologies, and industrystandards that will be used to

Establishes linkages between relevant governmentwide entities (i.e., CIO Council, XML Working
Group) to ensure that standards, best practices, and lessons learned are leveraged across the entire government.
Selects, recommends, and assists in the deployment of technologies that are proven, stable, interoperable, portable, secure, and scalable.
Facilitates the migration and transition of E-Gov initiatives from legacy and “inward-driven” architectures, to architectures that embrace component-driven methodologies and technology reuse. FEDERAL ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE

Identifies and quickly capitalizes on opportunities to leverage, share, and reuse technologies to support common business requirements, activities, and operations across the Federal
Government.
Champions the creation and propagation of intellectual capital (IC) that can assist in EGovernment transformation. KEY OBJECTIVES
The SAWG has defined several key objectives to help agencies leverage the skills and capabilities of the working group. These include (but are not limited to):
1. Generation and Distribution of IC. Generate IC on an on-going basis and maintain it within a
The provision and use of personal protective equipment could include using gloves, glasses, earmuffs, aprons, safety footwear, dust masks.
People feed off of other people. The Ohio State Business Honors Learning Community is a fantastic opportunity to surround myself with other excelling business majors. First of all, I will be able to provide a broad set of interests from theatre, to music, to sports, and to discussion. My diverse background will allow me to reach out to many members of the community both on the business level and the personal level. Along with my broad set of interests, I can bring an up and coming major, (Information Systems,) into the community. With Big Data on the rise, Information Systems has become one of the fastest growing majors in the world. Students with these majors are often the connecting points between management level and IT level. Understanding
How do you define application architecture and process design? Wise Geek defines application architecture as “the organizational design of an entire software application, including all sub-components and external applications interchanges. There are several design patterns that are used to define an application architecture” (wiseGEEK, 2013). The design patterns are created to meet the objectives described in the system requirements. “The activity of determining the workflow, equipment needs, and implementation requirements for a particular process,” is the definition of process design. “Process design typically uses a number of

Main Building – will require 7 computer stations with the most recent version of Operating System to ensure compatibility and networking capabilities between each stations and the ability to communicate between the two locations. They will require three servers, one for web hosting, one for database management and one for emergency failure of any one server. These stations should be networked to communicate with one another for proper data connection especially in the event of any one computer station crashing. Each work station will need to be linked to each server for web hosting and data backup. The cabling used for inside the main building should be 100Base TX cat 5 UTP, for Wi-Fi and WLAN with guest access that is highly secure and reliable, we recommend a device that is capable of supporting up to 15 different users with 450 Mbps.

Todd (2012) has interviewed employer association representatives and examined their public statements and submissions. From her research, she questions whether the changes to the industrial relations system that employer associations advocate would enhance productivity. With regard to issues such as penalty rates and job security, there is evidence that these relate to cost cutting and enhanced managerial prerogative rather than productivity. Discuss
In every business there is going to have a competitive edge that establishes standardized steps to achieve consistency.
Big business is movie in the small town there are two sets of identical twins are born in the same hospital on the same night. One set to a poor local family and the other to a rich family just passing through. during the childbirth the nurse accidentally switched the twins unbeknown to the parents. In this story flashes forward to the 1980s where the mismatched sets of twins are about to cross paths following a big business deal to closedown the factory. In this paper, an analysis of the four characters of the movie “ Big Business” will be given based on their straggle to designing interventions which are the human process intervention, technostructural intervention, human resources management intervention and strategic change intervention.
1. Given our studies of EA frameworks you are to identify five different criteria by which you can assess the strengths and weaknesses of the: TOGAF, FEA, LightWeight and Zachman framework. (50 points)
* Centralization of the core processes and standardizing of the IT infrastructure would leverage technology expertise across the organization and the affiliates. It would also enable cost effective contracts from the software suppliers and would facilitate global business processes.
1. What factors contribute to the rapid pace of change in business? Is the pace likely to accelerate or decrease over the next decade? Why?
“In Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) minor changes do not have any impact and the original contract does not get canceled. The quantity is the main focus of the term in UCC. Offers made by a firm are irrevocable if the deal is made in writing in UCC” (UCC vs Common Law, 2014). “Uniform Commercial Code is a statutory law for certain types of commercial transactions, including sales of goods, which has been adopted by all 50 states. Many of its rules are similar to Common Law, but it
The strategic management process is sometimes improperly perceived as a unidirectional flow of objectives, strategies and decision parameters from management to the employees. In fact, the process should be highly interactive since it is designed to stimulate input from creative, skilled and knowledgeable people working at every level of the business.
There are a number of definitions that exist of Enterprise Architecture. An enterprise is a collaborative collection of sub-organizations with a shared objective. Architecture is a description of the structure and behaviour of a system. Therefore enterprise architecture is a documentation describing the structure and behaviour of an enterprise including its information systems. There is need for flexibility and resilience in Enterprise Architecture. A lot depends on what sort of a framework you can use. Some popular frameworks include TOGAF of The Open Group and smaller ones like Zackman. Within the framework there is the content which includes structure and metamodel.
The impact of information technology has been tremendous within the public sector. Over the years, the growth and development of technology has caused the public sector to change. One of the most significant changes in technology has been the evolution of the information systems and how their development has reshaped the way the world uses technology. “It has been just over fifty years since the worlds first programmable computer became operational. It cost millions of dollars to build and processed an unprecedented 5,000 instructions per second. By 1971, Intel was able to pack 25 times that power into a single, two hundred-dollar chip. Today’s personal computers process
