The owner at the Office Supply Start-up company is concerned about losing critical files in the structure you built for them. She wants you to create a script that will automate a periodic file backup to a directory called backup on the local drive.

To do this, you should create a script that meets the following parameters:

• User’s home directory is backed up on Tuesday and Thursday nights at midnight EST.

• Company files are backed up on Monday, Wednesday, Friday nights at midnight EST.

• Payroll backups occur on the 1st and 15th of each month.

Question 1-A) in a horizontal terrain, the width is about 100 m., length 300 m. a rectangular "hospital building" is planned to be constructed urgently. Considering the floor and floor of the hospital building which will be constructed of reinforced concrete or steel construction and designed to be single storey, write down all the work required to be done in the ground survey of this area and its surroundings in order and in complete terms of geotechnical.

b) in this geotechnical evaluation, interpret your thoughts about whether 1 basement should be added or not to the "hospital building", which is intended to be built on a single storey, together with the reasons.

Exam question 9: Noise

You are responsible for running an experimental project in the hospital, which is about studying the nurse's motor function while doing some typical work. You have therefore built a wireless system for measuring EMG signals. The laboratory is located next to the hospital laundry room

9.a): Which external sources of noise might be in this place? (mention at least 5)

9.b): How do these noise sources connect to your system?

9.c): Explain your strategy to reduce the noise described in (9a).

Day of week

Write a program that asks the user for a date (year, then month, then day, each entered as a number on a separate line), then calculates the day of the week that date falls on (according to the Gregorian calendar) and displays the day name.

You may not use any date functions built into Python or its standard library, or any other functions that do this work for you.

Hint: Reverend Zeller may be useful, but his years start in a weird spot.

Create a Java method findLongestPalindrome that takes a Scanner scn as its parameter and returns a String. It returns the longest token from scn that is a palindrome (if one exists) or the empty string (otherwise). (Implementation note: Use the built in isPalindrome method. This method calls for an optimization loop.)

Where the isPalindrome Method takes a String s as a parameter and returns a boolean. It returns true if s reads the same forwards and backwards, i.e., is a Palindrome, and returns false otherwise.

I only need help creating the findLongestPalindrome method, I already have the isPalindrome method.

Run the following R commends.
set.seed(2019) x = rnorm(100,mean=0, sd=2) y = rnorm(100,mean=0, sd=20)
[NOTE: Do NOT use built-in functions which can directly solve the problems.]
(1) Compute the means of values in the vectors x and y, respectively. Which one is more close to zero? Explain the reason.
(2) Compute the sample standard deviations of values in the vector x and y, respectively.
(3) Find the index positions in x and y of the values between -5 and 5, respectively

1. Ace Steel Mill estimates the Demand for steel in millions of tons per year as follows

1. If capacity is set at 18 Million tons what is the capacity cushion
2. What is the probability of Idle capacity
3. What is the average utilization of the plant at 18 million ton capacity
4. If it costs $8 million per ton of lost business and $80 million to build a million ton of capacity how much capacity should be built to minimize the total cost

Tombro Industries is in the process of automating one of its plants and developing a flexible manufacturing system. The company is finding it necessary to make many changes in operating procedures. Progress has been slow, particularly in trying to develop new performance measures for the factory.

In an effort to evaluate performance and determine where improvements can be made, management has gathered the following data relating to activities over the last four months:

The president has read in industry journals that throughput time, MCE, and delivery cycle time are important measures of performance, but no one is sure how they are computed. You have been asked to assist the company, and you have gathered the following data relating to these measures:

Required:

1-a. Compute the throughput time for each month.

1-b. Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for each month.

1-c. Compute the delivery cycle time for each month.

3-a. Refer to the inspection time, process time, and so forth, given for month 4. Assume that in month 5 the inspection time, process time, and so forth, are the same as for month 4, except that the company is able to completely eliminate the queue time during production using Lean Production. Compute the new throughput time and MCE.

3-b. Refer to the inspection time, process time, and so forth, given for month 4. Assume that in month 6 the inspection time, process time, and so forth, are the same as in month 4, except that the company is able to eliminate both the queue time during production and the inspection time using Lean Production. Compute the new throughput time and MCE.

Case study: Deciding what is effective from different perspectives

The aim of this case study is to illustrate the sometimes competing demands of effectiveness, efficiency and equity. In particular, it should help you to:

Explain what is meant by key terms such as ‘LYG’, ‘QALY’ and ‘ICER’

Use these terms and the information they represent in a decision-making scenario ?        Compare and contrast the demands of effectiveness from different perspectives

Scenario

You are a member of an area prescribing committee (APC) which is reviewing the treatment options for a cancer which is universally rapidly fatal (usually within months) if not treated. For the purposes of this cases study, please assume the following:

There is good evidence supporting the effectiveness of three medicines (A, B and C) in improving health outcomes.

The treatments are mutually exclusive: there is no evidence that patients are better off switching from one to another.

Effectiveness does not depend on patient or disease characteristics.

All costs fall within the first year of treatment.

Costs vary only according to the drug selected, since staff time, etc. are fixed and are the same requirements for each treatment.

The annual budget available for commissioning treatment is US$500,000. ?        The incidence of this cancer in the area covered by your APC is 1,000 new cases each year.

The health economic data are summarized below:

Question 1: Given the available budget of $500,000 per year, how many people could be treated with each option? Please show your calculation and explain briefly about why the current practice is Treatment A. (20%)

Question 2: Measuring the cost-effectiveness by the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), compared with the current practice, which treatment (B or C) is more cost-effective for a hospital use? Please show your calculation and explain briefly. (20%)

Question 3: From a patient perspective, which treatment is the most effective by considering the quality of life? Please show your calculation and explain briefly. (20%)

Question 4: From a society perspective, which treatment generates the greatest health gains given the funds available? Please show your calculation and explain briefly. (20%)

Question 5: Which treatment would you recommend to the area prescribing committee (APC): A, B or C? Please discuss your choice from perspectives of equity, efficiency and effectiveness. (20%)
