Although “it is impossible to prepare a response to something that has not been considered in advance”, still we work on resilient engineering as, a system is resilient to the degree to which it rapidly and effectively protects its critical capabilities from disruption caused by adverse events and conditions. RE can provide society and its critical infrastructure with means, methods and technologies to overcome unexampled events with as less harm as possible and to come out even stronger and better prepared afterwards. There are 4 R’s that are critical to the resilience engineering. Q1. There are 4 R’s that are critical to the resilience engineering. Explain them with some examples. Q2. There are 4 Strategies to increase system resilience given them in book. What strategy is most applicable to you as a software programmer and why? Q3. How do you think resilience will be different for technical systems vs sociotechnical systems? Q4. Out of three levels of security I.e. Infrastructure security, Application security and Operational security, we can only deal with application security. Although it is the area we work on, but overall security of even our application depends upon the organizational security policies. Do you agree? Comment using an example. Q5. There are 4 types of security threats namely, Interception, interruption, modification and fabrication. As a software programmer, what threat is the one you may work to avoid and how? Q6. There are 10 Design guidelines for security engineering given in the book. Which you think is the most important and should be used in your everyday software development practices.

Q.10
Women have been encouraged throughout the world to be entrepreneurs. Many reasons, some of them being to support themselves and their families; to attain the fulfillment of having started something on their own and to satisfy their desire for financial independence. Women not only create jobs for themselves and others, but also work toward growing their businesses, and constantly innovating new products and services. One such example was the partnership venture of Ms. Amna, Ms. Saeeda , Ms. Sana and Ms. Iba. This partnership firm was called as “The Beauty Salon”. Based in Qurum since inception in 2015, this SME concentrated on providing various cosmetic and beauty treatments to its clients. The company closed doors to all its clients in 2020 due to death of one of its partners, Ms. iba

Smith's Inc, Inc., produces widgets for the wind chime industry. The company sells all products on accounts with net 30 day terms. The company has been without someone to assess the financial condition for some time (using only a bookkeeper to post activity to the general ledger accounts) and, therefore, is asking you to help with a more current assessment of the company’s position.

Part B: Based on the financial statements that were prepared with this data, complete the following financial ratio calculations and provide a narrative discussion of these results as compared to industry averages (provided.)
Ratios required:
Ratio Industry Average
1. Profit margin 3.2%
2. Return on assets (use ending assets) 6.0%
3. Return on common equity (use ending common equity) 15.6%
4. Receivable turnover (use ending receivables) 8.5 x
5. Inventory turnover (use ending inventory) 12.0 x
6.Fixed asset turnover (use ending fixed asset balance) 5.75 x
7. Total asset turnover (use ending assets) 1.89 x
8. Current ratio 3.10
9. Quick ratio 1.40
10. Debt to total assets (use ending assets) 37.0%
Your solution should include the required ratios for each year and then provide a narrative discussion regarding the results as they compare to the industry averages. This analysis should discuss whether or not Smith's Inc. is better or worse than the industry average but it should not stop there. You should also include a discussion as to why or how the difference can be explained, i.e., the reason for the variance. The final solution is to be provided in the Word document, with the module and part clearly identified. The narrative discussion will reference the appropriate ratio and the comparison to the appropriate industry average.

As shown in the figure below, a bullet is fired at and passes through a piece of target paper suspended by a massless string. The bullet has a mass m, a speed v before the collision with the target, and a speed (0.496)v after passing through the target. The collision is inelastic and during the collision, the amount of kinetic energy lost by the bullet and paper is equal to [(0.263)Kb BC] , that is, 0.263 of the kinetic energy of the bullet before the collision. Determine the mass M of the target and the speed V of the target the instant after the collision in terms of the mass m of the bullet and speed v of the bullet before the collision. (Express your answers to at least 3 decimals.)
V = ? v
M = ? m

Leaving home in the morning, I back down my driveway. Before entering the road, I realize I forgot my lunch and so I pull back in to my parking spot.
What is my velocity just before I realized I forgot my lunch and stopped?
What is my velocity the instant after I realized I forgot my lunch and started moving back
towards my parking spot?
A change in velocity is an acceleration. Did I accelerate, from the moment just before I
stopped the car to the moment just after I started moving back towards my parking spot?

Ron is a topnotch programmer with over twenty years experience. He prides himself on his ability to solve any problem, and produce great code. He was appointed to a project team led by LaVerne, a young analyst, given her first chance at a lead role. She gave him some DFD diagrams (that she worked very hard to do), and he became very irritated. Ron told her that she had wasted her time and his. DFD diagrams don't show what the system has to do in detail, like physical model flowcharts. Furthermore Ron tells her he doesn't need (or want) diagrams of any kind because he writes "self-documenting code". At this company, Ron is considered a genius. How should LaVerne handle this?

When using random access files in Java, the programmer is permitted to create files which can be read from and written to random locations. Assume that a file called "integers.dat" contains the following values: 25 8 700 284 63 12 50 Fill in blanks: You are required to write the following Java code statements: (a) create a new stream called, blueray, which allows the program to read from and write to the file, "integers.dat." _____________________ (b) Write a statement which will move the file pointer to the number, 700. _____________________ (c) Write a statement to display the contents currently pointed to. _____________________ (d) Write a statement which will move the file pointer from its current position, directly to the end of the file. _____________________ (e) Append the value 999999 to the file. _____________________

The Unhappy Supervisor Miss Joan Santos, a computer programmer in Mannadel Corporation for more than six years now, was discussing her salary situation with Mr. Roderick Santiago, her manager. Miss Joan was unhappy because she did not receive any salary increase last salary evaluation, while some employees who were recently hired got an increase from ten to fifteen percent. Miss Joan's performance has been considered very satisfactory for the last five years and previous to this she got very substantial increases in salary due to the important programs that she made for the corporation related to accounting and personnel matters. She made a lot of improvements in the purchasing systems and systematized inventory records in materials management. The management had recently started a comprehensive job evaluation program and some positions are aligned within the salary grade approved by the management committee, where Mr. Roderick Santiago is also a member. Mr. Santiago explained to Joan has her salary was already way above the salary grade for the position evaluated and allocated in the salary plan; hence, she will not get any increase at the moment until the salary range can catch up to her level in the salary plan. Mr. Santiago also explained that she is the most senior among the programmers and that instead of cutting her salary back to the job range, they are considering her for an incentive bonus, which is not as substantial as that of her co-worker’s in the department who are new in the positions. Miss Joan is not satisfied with the program explained by Mr. Santiago. The whole night she planned to file a leave of absence despite the many rush programs assigned to her.
