Company XYZ owns a social network web site dedicated for wind surfers. They plan to launch a new online ad delivery and management service web site that will be coupled with their existing social network platform. The online ad management service will enable them to accept online orders for online ads from advertisers. The system will also deliver the ads to the main social network site. The ads will be displayed on the social network site but the content of the ads (the images and/or text objects containing the ad message) will be served by the new web site server. The company forecasts that the web site will receive an average of 10,000 visits from potential or current advertisers and 600 online ad purchase orders per week. They expect to have 30,000 registered online advertisers during the first month of the launch of the web site. Company XYZ dedicate a separate server and database for the new online service. The users of the ad management site and the users of the social network will be managed separately. The data of the two groups will be stored on separate databases. Similarly, web ad management site content and the social network site content will be hosted on separate servers. Company XYZ prefers to manage those two sites separately. The social network site will pull online ads from the database of the online ad management system. The users will experience a seamless presentation of ads within the social network pages without noticing the ads are fed from a different server.

Company XYZ awarded a contract to your company (Company ABC) to develop the web site, web service, and the database that will provide the capability of the online ad delivery and management service. You are the project manager of this project. Your task is to manage a team of three (one graphic designer, one database developer, and one software developer). As the project manager you are required to answer the following questions that provide insight about the project plan. Please respond to each question. There may be missing information. This is intentional. If you feel that there is missing information in any question, you are expected to make assumptions. Please state your assumptions clearly. You can use library and/or online information resources to address the questions. List all the information sources you use (use APA format for listing the references).

Using the drawing feature of Word or other software, create a site map of the online ad delivery service and management web site and the ad delivery web service. Show the hierarchy of pages and relationships between them. Include the database infrastructure in your depiction of your website. Explain each element. You can make any assumption about the specifics of the web site. Show the links between the social network site and the online ad management site that you will develop.

Conclusion:

During the finale of the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show, entertainers Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson performed a song and dance routine to Timberlake’s song “Rock Your Body.” As Timberlake ended the duet by sing- ing “gonna have you naked by the end of this song,” he tore away a portion of Jackson’s bustier, momentarily re- vealing her breast. The performers subsequently strained the credulity of the public by terming the episode a “ward- robe malfunction.”

The Federal Communications Commission issued an or- der fining CBS $550,000 for broadcasting the nudity. The agency explained that the incident violated the FCC pol- icy against broadcasting indecent material, such as nu- dity and expletives, during the hours when children are most likely to watch television. The Third Circuit vacated the order, finding that it violated the Administrative Procedure Act as “arbitrary and capricious” agency action. The court held that the FCC’s order represented an unex- plained departure from the agency’s longstanding policy of excusing the broadcast of fleeting moments of indecency. 663 F. 3d 122 (2011).

I am not so sure. As we recently explained in FCC v. Fox Television Stations, Inc., the FCC’s general policy is to conduct a context-specific examination of each allegedly

2 FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION v. CBS CORPORATION

ROBERTS, C. J., concurring

indecent broadcast in order to determine whether it should be censured. 556 U. S. 502, 508 (2009). Until 2004, the FCC made a limited exception to this general policy for fleeting expletives. Ibid. But the agency never stated that the exception applied to fleeting images as well, and there was good reason to believe that it did not. As every schoolchild knows, a picture is worth a thousand words, and CBS broadcast this particular picture to mil- lions of impressionable children.

I nonetheless concur in the Court’s denial of certiorari. Even if the Third Circuit is wrong that sanctioning the Super Bowl broadcast constituted an unexplained depar- ture from the FCC’s prior indecency policy, that error has been rendered moot going forward. The FCC has made clear that it has abandoned its exception for fleeting exple- tives. Id., at 509–510. Looking ahead, it makes no dif- ference as a matter of administrative law whether the FCC’s fleeting expletive policy applies to allegedly fleeting images, because the FCC no longer adheres to the fleeting expletive policy. It is now clear that the brevity of an indecent broadcast—be it word or image—cannot immun- ize it from FCC censure. See, e.g., In re Young Broad- casting of San Francisco, Inc., 19 FCC Rcd. 1751 (2004) (censuring a broadcast despite the “fleeting” nature of the nudity involved). Any future “wardrobe malfunctions” will not be protected on the ground relied on by the court below.

Sam Forbes and Jenny Hewes are senior vice-presidents of the First Creek Investment Council . They are co-directors of the company's pension fund management division, with Sam having responsibility for fixed income securities (primarily bonds) and Jneey being responsible for equity investments. A major new client has requested that council present an investment seminar to Executive Committee, and Forbes and Hewes, who will make the actual presentation, have asked you, a recent UCW graduate to help them.                                                                                                       

to illustrate the common stock valuation process, Sam and Jenny have asked you to analyze the Temp Force Company, an employment agency that supplies word processor operators and computer programmers to businesses with temporarily heavy workloads. You are to answer the following questions.                                                                                                          

a. Describe briefly the legal rights and privileges of common stockholders.                                                                                                                                                                           

b. Assume that Temp Force is a constant growth company whose last dividend (Do, which was paid yesterday) was $2.00, and whose dividend is expected to grow indefinitely at a 5 percent rate.                                                                                   

   (1.) What is the firm’s expected dividend stream over the next 3 years?                                                                                                                  

   (2.) What is the firm’s current stock price?                                                                                                            

   (3.) What is the stock's expected value 1 year from now?                                                                                                              

   (4.) What are the expected dividend yield, the capital gains yield, and the total return during the first year?                                                                                                                

c. Now assume that the stock is currently selling at $43.75. What is the expected rate of return on the stock? (                                                                                        

f. What would the stock price be if its dividends were expected to have zero growth?                                                                                                        

g. Now assume that Temp Force is expected to experience supernormal growth of 30 percent for the next 3 years, then to return to its long-run constant growth rate of 5 percent. What is the stock's value under these conditions? What is its expected dividend yield and capital gains yield in Year 1? In Year 4? (                                                                                                           

h. Is the stock price based more on long-term or short-term expectations? Answer this by finding the percentage of Temp Force current stock price based on dividends expected more than 3 years in the future.                                                                                          

i. Suppose Temp Force is expected to experience zero growth during the first 3 years and then to resume its steady-state growth of 5% in the fourth year. What is the stock's value now? What is its expected dividend yield and its capital gains yield in Year 1? In Year 4?                                              

j. Finally, assume that Temp Force’s earnings and dividends are expected to decline by a constant 6 percent per year, that is, g = -5%. Why would anyone be willing to buy such a stock and at what price should it sell? What would be the dividend yield and capital gains yield in each year?                                

l. Temp Force recently issued preferred stock. It pays an annual dividend of $1.60, and the issue price was $25 per share. What is the expected return to an investor on this preferred stock?                                                                                           

Consider the design of a database for a web site of a web site of videos that teach people how to do things by yourself, such as house renovation. We will call videos as DIY videos. First, all registered users can post DIY questions, such as “how to paint a wall”. Each DIY question is identified by a question ID, the question itself, and a list of tags (each tag is a lower case word) to annotate the question, and the date the question is posted,. For example, for the question “how to paint a wall”, we can add the tags “wall, paint, roller, brush”. A registered user can also post a DIY video (from the existing video website) to an existing DIY question. Each video is identified by a unique URL (use the URL when you click the share button at the video website page, a title and a description of the video, the date on which the video is posted to your database system. A registered user can search for videos by typing a question (ideally, support fuzzy search since a user might not be able to type the exact phrase in a question), all relevant video links will be returned as a list so that a user can click any video link in the result list to play that video. Each registered user is identified by a unique username, which must be an email, a password, a first name, a last name, the gender, and his/her birthday. A registered user can give at most one review for each video, but on a particular day, the user can post at most three videos. The review given by a user has a score of {“Poor”, “Fair”, “Good”, “Excellent”} and then a short remark. A user can also modify an existing review as well as deleting an existing review. Each user has a private favorite list of DIY videos(called my favorite DIYs). Each user can insert or delete a DIY video from that favorite list. When each video is shown, the DIY question will also be shown beside the title of the video, so that a user can click it to see other videos for this DIY question. While a video is on display, there is a button under the video called “Add to my favorite DIYs” so that a user can easily add this video to his/her favorite DIYs. The system has a distinguished user called “root” whose username is root (this is the only username that is not an email).

- Draw an E-R diagram for the system, in particular, use arrows or thick lines to represent constraints appropriately. Write down your assumptions and justifications briefly and clearly.

- Translate the above E-R diagram into a relational model, i.e., write a set of CREATE TABLE statements. In particular, specify primary key, foreign key and other constraints whenever possible.

C Programming

The score table will be printed by reading the match information made between the teams.

It is not known how many teams. The team information will be kept in a dynamically changed memory area as the new team enters. The match list should also be kept in a dynamic area that is recorded as new match information is entered.

There should be 2 structs in the program.

Mac struct: Consists of 1st team name, 2nd team name, 1st team goal, 2nd team goal information.

Team struct: consists of team name (one word, 20), number of wins, number of draws, number of defeats, number of goals scored, number of goals eaten, point.

Example input: abc xyz 3 1 (Information will be entered completely and correctly.)

A single line of match information, with a space between them, 1 Team name, 2 Team name, 1.

The goal scored by the team will be entered as the goal scored by the 2nd team. In the case where the above example is the first match information entered for these teams, two teams will be identified in the abc and xyz names, and will be added to the team list, since there are no teams defined in these names yet. At the same time, a match struct will be defined, this match struct will be added to the match list, and all information of both teams in the team struct will be updated with this match information.

If the above example is not the first match information entered about the abc and xyz teams, since both teams will be defined before, these teams will be found in the teams list and their relevant information will be updated.

In summary, for the above entry, if the team has not yet been identified in these names, both teams will be identified and added to the team list. The number of victories of the ABC team will be increased by one, the number of goals scored will be increased by 3, the number of goals scored will be increased by 1, and the score will be increased by 3. The xyz team's number of defeats will be increased by 1, the goal scored will be increased by 1, the goal it has scored will be increased by 3, its score will be reduced by 1. (wins 3 points, draw 1 point, defeat -1 point). The match struct will be added to the match list.

After entering the match information, the scoreboard will be printed.

Scoreboard: The information in the team struct will be printed one after the other in the order given in the description. The scoreboard should be in descending order according to the score. In case of score equality, the team with a high average score (goals scored and goals scored) should be on the top. It can be assumed that the score and average will not be equal teams.

After the scoreboard is printed, the user will receive a sequence number from 1-teamnumber, and the matches of the team in the row entered will be listed. Unless -1 is entered, the sequence number will be read again after printing the information of a tool, and the program will end when -1 is entered. If a number between 1-teamnumber or an entry other than -1 has been made, an appropriate message will be given and the entry will be waited again.

In this assignment, you will use the method of comparing confidence intervals to test for a significant difference between the resting heart rate of males and females. You have observed that the mean rates are not exactly the same but are they significantly different?

Steps

1. Open your Unit 5 assignment and identify the means and confidence intervals you calculated for male-at-rest and female-at-rest.
2. Use the 95% confidence intervals to determine if the resting male heart is the same as the resting female heart.
3. Write the null hypothesis being tested and whether you reject the null hypothesis based on the comparison of confidence intervals. Refer to the RealizeIt lesson for information on using confidence intervals to test a hypothesis.
