Deb lives in a jurisdiction where all residential swimming pools are required by law to be enclosed by a fence that is at least six feet tall in order to prevent accidental drowning. Deb built a pool in her backyard a couple of months ago, but she hasn't had the extra money with which to build the fence. Unfortunately, one of the neighborhood children goes swimming in the pool and drowns. The parents of the child sue Deb. Discuss how the parents would likely go about proving their case and the elements that would be required.

What are some key things to consider when preparing to conduct a topographic survey?
With the understanding that a higher resolution of data is going to generally cost more money, what is one suggestion you have to reduce the amount of time required to perform your proposed survey?
How many data points are necessary to provide an acceptable topographic survey? How might this vary based on the phase of the project (e.g., preliminary planning, construction drawings, final as-built drawings)?
What is one possible use of a topographic survey?

The distinguishing feature of international business is that international firms operate in environments that are highly uncertain and where the rules of the game are often ambiguous, contradictory, and subject to rapid change, as compared to the domestic environment. It is crucial for businesses to understand these differences and find ways to hurdle the barriers these differences present in a socially responsible manner. TASK: Select any organization of your choice. Carry out a research on the following aspects and present it in the form of a Report in Word.
Examine how the ethical and socially responsible behavior is built in the management practices and business operations

Consider the natural join of the relation R(A,B) and S(A,C) on attribute A. Neither relations have any indexes built on them. Assume that R and S have 80,000 and 20,000 blocks, respectively. The cost of a join is the number of its block I/Os accesses. If the algorithms need to sort the relations, they must use two-pass multi-way merge sort.
QUESTION:
Assume that there are 10 blocks available in the main memory. What is the fastest join algorithm for computing the join of R and S? What is the cost of this algorithm?

GLOBAL MACROTRENDS AND THEIR IMPACT ON SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
You have just taken a job as a consultant for a custom-built motorcycle company. The plant manager says he had read that a synchronized push supply chain strategy was associated with stable demand, and one of the goals for his company was to remove as much demand variability as possible. He recommends using a synchronized push strategy for their customized product. How would you reply to him?
