According to some sources there were about 13.4 billion connected devices back in 2015 and the projections show there might be up to 38.5 billion such devices in 2020 [2]. As the number of devices increases, the necessity for a proper security mechanism concerning those devices becomes a priority in order to safely adopt the evergrowing internet of things into every aspect of a persons daily life. Privacy One of the most discussed issues concerning the security of the internet of things is the issue of privacy. According to a study done by HP, 70 percent of the most frequently used IoT devices containt vulnerabilities. One of the most common security issue was privacy related. It appears that 90%
similar to the Observer pattern. Model Is the domain-specific representation of the information on which the application operates. Domain logic adds meaning to raw data (for example, calculating whether today is the user's birthday, or the totals, taxes, and shipping charges for shopping cart items). Many applications use a persistent storage mechanism (such as a database) to store data. MVC does not specifically mention the data access layer because it is understood to be underneath or encapsulated by the model. View Renders the model into a form suitable for interaction, typically a user interface element. Multiple views can exist for a single model for different purposes. Controller Processes and responds to events (typically user actions) and may indirectly invoke changes on the model. In computer programming, the proxy pattern is a software design pattern.
for updates to be carried out. In big data, the software packages provide a rich set of tools and options where an individual could map the entire data landscape across the company, thus allowing the individual to analyze the threats faced internally [18]. Making big data somewhat secure as in whole and also allowing different algorithms to function. In fact, nowadays, every bigger company, who has to deal with massive amounts of users, has its own big data database or at least access to one. List of some used based ones: YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Amazon, Google, Netflix. The ones mentioned above all share common features, such as: - Having enormous databases. - Collecting user data and classifying them in groups, where they share similar traits like age, what they like and how they see the world. - Selling and exchanging user information to reap personal benefit.
•Everything must be changeable, extensible, adaptable. •Quality is an important issue. Architectural consequences of these requirements: •Software should not be designed as monolithic unit but partitioned into composableservices that can be spontaneously connected and orchestrated by business/technical processes (component-based software). •„Software entropy“should be maximized: loosely coupling between peers,decentralized information access, reflective approaches (Just-in-Time Integration). •Software must be e-enabled. Application Partioning •Solutions consist of collections of components. •Components are divided into multiple packages. •Packages can work with each other across a network through ObjectRequestBroker(ORB). •This application partitioning is transparent to the component developer. 3. COM Principles: Rigorous Encapsulation: - no leakage of implementation details; – All object manipulation through strict
• Shop-drawing review is sped up; • Steel design takes place in a more concurrent fashion; • 3D illustrations help to explain erection sequencing; • Building models provide rigging information for erection crews. The results of this thesis illustrate the benefit that 3D and BIM offer for complex steel construction projects and demonstrate an overall trend in the construction industry. The primary purpose of 3D and BIM is to be able to build the structure in virtual space before actual construction starts, so that the majority of the potential challenges can be successfully identified and addressed during the preconstruction phase.

give the construction industry one of the worst public images among the industrial sectors (Egan 1998; Koskela 2000; Santos 1999). The Centre for Integrated Facility Engineering, headed by Paul Teicholz at Stanford University, conducted research on labour productivity in the construction industry. The productivity of the construction industry in the US was studied in comparison with all non-farm industries over a period of forty years, from 1964 to 2003, as shown in the following figure. Figure 1.1 Labour productivity index for US construction industry and all non-farm industries from 1964 through 2003, source Teicholz 2003. Figure 1.1 shows that the construction industrys productivity has declined over the last four decades, while the productivity of non-farm industries has more than doubled. This means that more work per one dollar needs to be carried out in 2004 than needed to be carried out in 1960 to achieve the same results
BARRIERS TO DISTRICT HEATING DEVELOPMENT IN SOME EUROPEAN COUNTRIES Abstract District heating (DH) offers low primary energy demand, high security of supply and small CO 2 emissions. Barriers to DH in the UK, Ireland, France, Romania and the Czech Republic have been compiled through publications and interviews. DH systems require large investments, have negative initial cash flow and long payback time, which obstructs financing. One actor should control DH from source to consumption. If the value chain is fragmented, contracts are required between the links. It increases risks and

It is likely that these figures are greater today since the capabilities of the J2SE have improved (e.g. the libraries are larger, tool speed is better). 2.2. Ways of Using Java in Games There are several approaches to writing games with Java: · Applets. Usually the applet is a client for a multiplayer game, and communicates back to its home host where the game server is located. A drawback of applets is their security features, which need to be adjusted by the user before an applet can save files or communicate with different hosts. · Pure Java applications. The meaning of `pure' is somewhat vague since seemingly pure libraries, such as Java 3D, utilise code outside of Java, hidden from the programmer. · Dirty Java applications. Dirty Java programs use a mix of Java and other languages (typically C or C++) by employing JNI, network links, or the Java
programmed the first successful automated essay scoring engine, "Project Essay Grade (PEG)" (1973). The technology was foretold some six years earlier in a landmark Phi Delta Kappan article entitled, "The Imminence of Grading Essays by Computer" (Page, 1966). At the time the article was provocative and a bit outrageous, though in hindsight, it can only be deemed prophetic. As a former high school English teacher , Page was convinced that students would benefit greatly by having access to technology that would provide quick feedback on their writing. He also realized that the greatest hindrance to having secondary students write more was the requirement that, ultimately, a teacher had to review stacks of papers. While PEG produced impressive results, the technology of the time was too primitive to make it a practical application. Text had to be typed on IBM 80-column punched cards and read into a mainframe computer before it could be evaluated
The review will discuss the viability of biofuels based on the current technologies. Second-generation biofuels are not yet commercially viable and therefore will not be discussed; although they could significantly improve the sustainability of biofuels when they break through to the industrial scale. 2. The scale of biofuels production 2.1. Drivers of biofuels production Lal (2010) stated that "three inter-connected challenges face humankind in the 21st century": food security, climate change, and energy security. The world population is projected to reach 9 billion in 2050, posing more demands on energy, food, and other natural resources. It has been estimated that the world food production needs to double and meat production increase by 85% by 2050 to fulfill projected demand by population (Karp, 2011). In the recent decades, the food consumption in the most populous counties has shifted from grain-based diets to meat and dairy diets

New Media Economy Social media information and data collection and security In this brief essay, i would like to focus on the social media platforms in our moren society. How people use them, what kind of information we give away, what companies will do with this. Information sharing and data protection has become very popular theme in the recent few years. People care more about their privacy and avoid „big brother“ foreshadowing. It is important to know what social media platforms promise and are they really going to keep it.

localize in one half brain basic mental processes like learning and memory. In the future, we can expect deeper insights into the mechanics of how the brain works. Using one or more examples, explain effects of neurotransmission on human behavior. Acetylcholine is believed to play a role in memory formation. Martinez and Kesner carried out and experiment with the aim of determining the role of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine on memory. Rats were trained to go through a maze. Once they were able to do this two different groups of rats were injected with chemicals that either increased or decreased the activity of acetylcholine in the brain. There was also a third group, who were not injected anything. The results showed that the rats with more acetylcholine in their brain were faster in finding the food in the maze and the rats with less acetylcholine were slower and took more wrong turns. The researchers concluded that acetylcholine played an important role in creating a

Marketing 5. Distribution 6. Customer service. Supply chain describes the flow of goods, services, and information from the initial sources of materials and services to the delivery of products to consumers, regardless of whether those activities occur in the same organization or in other organizations. Five step decision making process: 1. Identify the problem and uncertainties. 2. Obtain information. 3. Make predictions about the future. 4. Make decisions by choosing among alternatives. 5. Implement the decision, evaluate performance, and learn. Steps 1-4 are collectively referred to as planning. Planning comprises selecting organization goals, predicting results under various alternative ways of achieving those goals, deciding how to attain them. Most important planning tool is budget, quantitative expression of a proposed plan of action by management and is an aid to coordinating what needs to be done to implement that plan.
7 environmental, and social needs in a manner that does not compromise future needs. Defining sustainability in terms of three separate elements can sometimes lead to thinking about each element in isolation rather than an integrated manner. GRI is committed to continually improving the structure and content of the Guidelines in line with the evolving consensus on how to best measure performance against the goal of sustainable development. 4. PERFORMANCE INDICATORS The performance indicators are grouped under three sections covering the economic, environmental, and social dimensions of sustainability. This grouping is based on the conventional model of sustainable development and is intended to aid users of the Guidelines. However, limiting performance indicators to these three categories may not fully capture the performance of an organisation for a number of reasons
Microsoft's vision of cloud computing repeatedly changed both in name and conception but, by 2010, plans were increasingly firm. Windows Azure let developers run applications on Microsoft-hosted platforms, while Microsoft Office 2010 was slated to include an "Office Web" version accessible through a web browser. Whereas most cloud-based applications were run in public clouds, Microsoft promised to let companies install web apps on their own web servers, potentially improving privacy and security. Google's initiatives were a threat to eBay because of the first step in many e- commerce transactions. Customers shopping for a product could visit eBay's marketplace to find a qualified sellers, or they could find a vendor through Google. In fact many of Google's advertisers were also eBay sellers. eBay's PayPal services faced similar competition from Google Checkout. Both services should offer checkout services to third-party retailers. Yahoo
understand the design. While this document describes the general content and organization of a design report, some of the specifics (section headings, length, and format) may be determined by your project client. Before You Begin Some basics that you need to understand before starting to write the report. Definition: A design report documents the solution to a unique problem. Purpose: To communicate the solution to a problem. Audience: Anyone who has to implement your design, understand your design, or reference your design to solve their own problem. Typically, this is the project client. While the client may be familiar with the project, the report is still written as though the client is new to the project because that is the best way to tell the whole story. A design report is different than a lab report that you might be familiar with. A lab report describes an

TABLE OF CONTENTS 2 1 THE CORNERSTONES OF SURVEY RESEARCH 1.1 Introduction The idea of conducting a survey is deceptively simple. It involves identifying a specific group or category of people and collecting information from some of them in order to gain insight into what the entire group does or thinks; however, undertaking a survey inevitably raises questions that may be difficult to answer. How many people need to be surveyed in order to be able to describe fairly accurately the entire group? How should the people be selected? What questions should be asked and how should they be posed to respondents? In addition, what data collection methods should one consider using, and are some of those methods of collecting data better than others? And, once one has collected the information, how should it be analyzed and reported? Deciding to do a survey means committing oneself to work through a myriad of issues each of which is critical to the
tongue of the communicators. The message may be hidden in two basic ways. The methods of steganography conceal the very existence of the message. Among them are invisible inks and microdots and arrangements in which, for example, the first letter of each word in an apparently innocuous text spells out the real message. (When steganography is applied to electrical communications, such as a method that transmits a long radio message in a single short spurt, it is called transmission security.) The methods of cryptography, on the other hand, do not conceal the presence of a secret message but render it unintelligible to outsiders by various transformations of the plaintext. Two basic transformations exist. In transposition, the letters of the plaintext are jumbled; their normal order is disarranged. To shuffle secret into ETCRSE is a transposition. In substitution, the letters of the plaintext are replaced by other letters, or by numbers or symbols
and ongoing dilution, the centrality of this agenda remains undiminished. One may even say that since it was primarily the fears of the effects of Globalization (and the functional elite's disregard of those fears) which caused the crisis, the one strategy that addresses the causes and potential sources of those problems is more important than ever. And there is not much of an alternative anywhere as Ha-Joon Chang says, the "plain fact is that the Neo-Liberal `policy reforms' have not been able to deliver their central promise namely, economic growth," and that the "developing" countries grew better under the "bad" policies of 1960-1980. (2002: 128) Fashion and Rhetoric Why, then, the overwhelming dominance of NPM until a few years ago? Naturally, NPM is more than a fashion; as already stated, it is a genuine ideology, or based on one, the neo-liberal creed, in the sense that ideologies are reduced perspectives of
legislative initiative proposed a law draft prohibiting breeding, sale and import of pit bulls, Rottweilers, and close mixes of both. The parliament of Member State A ordered an additional scientific study, which largely confirmed the statistics. It also noticed, “Children are normally at greatest risk from dog bite because they play with dogs more often, have less experience in reading dog behavior, are more likely to engage in activity that alarms or stimulates a dog, and are less able to defend themselves when a dog becomes aggressive”. Scientific studies in dog psychology were not conclusive on direct causation between a dog breed and aggressiveness. They pointed out other influential factors such as individual character and disposition of an animal, resulted, among other things, from its training, living surroundings etc. In those circumstances and following the precautionary principle, the parliament adopted the
But in many scholars opinion pay-for performance has many negative aspects that may over weight the positive effects. To begin with, as mentioned above pay-for performance idea is to motivate civil servants to perform better through monetary rewards. The problem is that this may reduce intrinsic motivation, the connection with the organisation and with the task is now based on money, not on public interest. Some workers may be concerned about the level of job security (the fear that if they perform badly they will be dismissed). But the irony lies in traditional model of governmental jobs, that was meant to be long term and stable. If motivation lies on monetary incentives it may give base for corruption. Another negative side with pay-for performance is that it causes competition between employees. This in turn, reduces cooperation, unity and solidarity. It may affect other tasks and bigger projects where everyone has to work together for a same goal.
