1. When discussing data quality issues, why is it important to get the entire group together?

2. By preparing a report that includes the data quality issues, Barbara can provide the details to the team. Why is it important to have the specific issues typed out for all to view?

3. Barbara mentions that truncated fields are causing information to be cut off. What review process can help the team understand which fields are impacted by this?

4. In the video, another data quality issue involves the Male/Female or M/F usage. How can various ways to display data impact facility operations?

Data Quality Nightmare

[ Music ]

>> Maybe we should get started. I have to meet with a vendor in less than an hour. If Richard doesn't show up I can just catch him up on what we talk about.

>> Well, and that's a shame because the reason I wanted us all here at the same time is because I have a number of complaints here from various departments regarding data quality issues.

>> Well, I'm sorry. I'm sorry; I apologize. Yell at me later it was an emergency. How much did I miss?

>> That's okay emergencies are our middle name. I was just saying that the reason I wanted us all here together in the same room is because I have some complaints here from various departments regarding data quality issues that show that we have some problems.

>> Yeah, and you've probably got complaints from people in my department.

>> Oh, I do, here's some samples. I think these samples cover the problem areas that I've identified. For example, here's one with data fields that are too short on some forms; it's the last name, street names being truncated, and then the truncated information gets forwarded on to other departments that need the full information.

>> So if the field sizes aren't consistent from form to form, then just changing one form's field size can have consequences down the line?

>> Exactly. Here's another where consistency is the problem. We're using different terms for the same information and counter number on one form is referred to on another form as the case number.

>> How could that be confusing?

>> You're kidding?

>> Yeah.

>> Oh, all right. Well, here's another where data is being entered in different ways. For instance, m slash f on one form, and male slash female on another form. Now here we have a complaint where patients have multiple record numbers and they're not being linked, so we're not collecting required data, we're putting out inaccurate reports and complete medical records aren't being generated, which can certainly have a major impact on patient care.

>> Oye.

>> Oye is right, so now we have an idea of the breath of the problem; any ideas on how to address them?

[ Silence ]

We ended up looking at a number of options to dig ourselves out of this hole we'd put ourselves in. We decided to create a data dictionary for the development of forms; this dictionary would specify the wording for the basic choice, and the number of characters in the field for that choice wherever appropriate. For instance, the form would say that you have to choose between male, female, and unknown for gender, not just m, f, and u. Richard said that we can get algorithm software that can identify potential duplicate records; it can also perform data modeling to determine our data needs, and that can even include what we need in terms of compliance with UHDDS and/or other data set requirements. We also discussed forming a team to manage communications so that, for instance, data fields would not be cut off or changed without making sure everybody who needs to know would be properly notified. Whatever solutions we end up choosing it's clear that there's going to have to be some training involved, but I think that we all expected that. It's too complex to be solved just by pushing a button. The solution is going to require a certain amount of hands-on education.

Consider the following open positions at a local telecommunications company:

- Customer Service Representative

- Operations Manager

- VP of Marketing

Describe the applicable labor markets for each of these positions and how you would recruit for these positions, including specific sources that you would utilize.

EER diagram

Draw the EER diagram for the following systems.

Persons in an organization are employees or customers or visitors. Employees have computers.
The IT department of the company builds all its computers from components. Each computer
consists of several components like graphic cards, network cards, mother boards, memory
capsules, hard discs, etc. When a component is bought from a supplier it is given an ID number.
The finished computer is placed in a room, which may contain several computers.
Prepare an EER diagram using only the concepts listed above, that shows, as necessary,
entities, relationships, specializations and generalizations. Show the most likely cardinalities
(min, max) for all relationships.

You will create a GUI that solves the quadratic equation shown below.

• Part 1: Create the GUI 25%

1. Create a user interface that offers the user a space to enter values for A, B, and C. (Use a different text field for each.) Be sure to either set the text in these so that the user knows which is for A, which is for B, and which is for C or add labels so that it is clear.

2. Create a button that the user will press to generate the answers. (Or make sure it’s clear how the user should submit their values in another way.)

3. Create a node that will display both X values that result from the math. This can be 2 labels, a single label, a Text object… whatever.

4. Put these in a simple layout and make sure everything displays before moving on. Add enough styling so that things look neat.

• Part 2: Add EventHandler 75%

1. After your nodes are created but before your scene and stage commands, add

an event handler. I would like it to be an ActionEvent type.

2. Inside of the handle method, you will get the values from A, B, and C and solve for both X values. Make sure you store A, B, and C as doubles, not integers. Display the two answers that you get back to the GUI. There will be times where X will have no values. Handle this as addressed below.

3. Be sure to check first to see if A has a 0 in it. If it does, the math should not be performed and the user should be informed that A cannot be 0.  

4. Also check to see if the discriminant is negative. This is the part that occurs under the square root. We know that if it’s negative, then finding the square root of it will result in an imaginary number. Your program won’t crash if this happens but Java will display either ??? or NaN. Have the program check the discriminant before continuing with the math and display a custom message if the discriminant is negative.

5. The only acceptable printed outcomes are: a message saying A cannot be 0; a message saying that the inputted values will result in an imaginary number; or the two X values that result from the equation.  

6. One final task: Make sure both X answers are formatted to three decimal places. You can use String.format(), which was covered in Lab 1, the DecimalFormat class, or any other means for displaying 3 decimal places accurately.

Test values are below.

A: 3.0, B: 5.0, C: -2.0 → X = -2.000 and X = 0.333

A: -3.0, B: 10.0, C: 8.0 → X = 4.000 and X = -0.666

I am trying to create a program That works with two other programs in c++ and a makefile.

Only Shape.cpp can be modified. and it needs to work on a unix machine. It isn't running on my machine. And gives me an error message that it doesn't recomize cin and endl

The program will accept a character and an X and Y coordinate. Dependign on the Charactor, It will then tell you what Cells that shape occupies.

I almost have the program working, but I am getting several bugs. Can someone fix the Shape.cpp file, and tell me what they did to fix it?

Thanks.

what are the importance of setting policy priorities for budgeting purposes

Last week we observed a shopkeeper going about their daily routine and made some observations. This week we will collect some user requirements either through an interview or a questionnaire (Your choice although the interview is much faster).

Find out what the shopkeepers challenges are, how their work can be made easier (think stock keeping, accounting, sales, ordering the possibilities are endless). Concentrate on one area and using the information you collect extract the requirements for the system. Using this information, create a persona for the shopkeeper.

1. Proposed system per your understanding
2. Extracted Requirements
3. Shopkeeper Persona - Should have at a minimum: Photo, User Quote(If any), Bio, Personality, Challenges (Frustrations) and key goals
