Assume that you are hired in a marketing manager position at a hotel. You are supposed to develop a marketing positioning statement and communicate it with all employees so that they can understand organizational marketing directions. There is no precedented work about a marketing strategy, and sooner or later, you need to start with the work. How can you lead to develop the positioning statement? Explain the process of developing the statement from the beginning (NOT about just making the statement).

2a. The two space curves

and

r1(t) = <?1 + 5t, 3 − t^2, 2 + t − t^3> and? r2(s)=< ?3s−2s^2,s+s^3 +s^4,s−s^2 +2s^3>?

both pass through the point P(1,3,2). Find the values of t and s at which the curves pass through this point.

2b. Find the tangent vectors to each curve at the point P (1, 3, 2).

2c. Suppose S is a surface which contains the point P (1, 3, 2), and both r1(t) and r2(s) lie in S. We don’t have an equation for S, but we can still find the equation of the tangent plane to surface S at the point P (1, 3, 2). Use your answers to 2b. to do so:

Find the equation of the tangent plane to S at point P. (Hint: the vectors from 2b. lie in the tangent plane.)

3. The above contour map shows the island of Hawai’i. Suppose that the height above sea level of the island is given by a function z = f(x,y) where (0,0) is at the peak of Mauna Loa and x, y, and z are measured in feet.

3a. If (a, b) is at the point P , determine if each of the following is positive, negative or zero (approximately). Briefly explain your answers. (i) fx (a, b) (ii) fy (a, b) (iii) fxy (a, b) (iv) fxx (a, b)

3b. If Mauna Loa is at a height of 13, 678 feet above sea level, write down the equation of the tangent plane at the point (0, 0).

3c. Approximate the equation of the tangent plane at the point P . Be sure to convert kilometers to feet in your computations!

Develop a test strategy for testing the entire application chosen in unit 3 for analysis and design. Keep in mind that testing that involves users should minimize their time commitment while obtaining essential information from their involvement. Specifically define roles, responsibilities, timing, and test strategy for each level of testing.

• Consider a simple application-level protocol built on top of UDP that allows a client to retrieve a file from a remote server residing at a well-known address. The client first sends a request with a file name, and the server responds with a sequence of data packets containing different parts of the requested file. To ensure reliability and sequenced delivery, client and server use a stop-and-wait protocol. Ignoring the obvious performance issue, do you see a problem with this protocol? Think carefully about the possibility of processes crashing.

Oscar Clemente is the manager of Forbes Division of Pitt, Inc., a manufacturer of biotech products. Forbes Division, which has $4 million in assets, manufactures a special testing device. At the beginning of the current year, Forbes invested $5 million in automated equipment for test machine assembly. The division’s expected income statement at the beginning of the year was as follows:

A sales representative from LSI Machine Company approached Oscar in October. LSI has for $6.5 million a new assembly machine that offers significant improvements over the equipment Oscar bought at the beginning of the year. The new equipment would expand division output by 10 percent while reducing cash fixed costs by 5 percent. It would be depreciated for accounting purposes over a three-year life. Depreciation would be net of the $500,000 salvage value of the new machine. The new equipment meets Pitt’s 12 percent cost of capital criterion. If Oscar purchases the new machine, it must be installed prior to the end of the year. For practical purposes, though, Oscar can ignore depreciation on the new machine because it will not go into operation until the start of the next year.

The old machine, which has no salvage value, must be disposed of to make room for the new machine.

Pitt has a performance evaluation and bonus plan based on residual income. Pitt uses a cost of capital of 12 percent in computing residual income. Income includes any losses on disposal of equipment. Investment is computed based on the end-of-year balance of assets, net book value. Ignore taxes.

Required:

a. What is Forbes Division’s residual income if Oscar does not acquire the new machine? (Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)

b. What is Forbes Division’s residual income this year if Oscar acquires the new machine? (Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)

c. If Oscar acquires the new machine and operates it according to specifications, what residual income is expected for next year? (Enter your answer in thousands of dollars. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)

Java programming extra credit.

The following program will be used to test your knowledge on Implementing with tester classes. Included is the Details class. Your assignment is to create a class named DetailsTester using info from the two classes(Procedure class is only included to know the details of the procedure, which includes desc, date, and cost) Patient class is included as well.That will properly implement the class.

1. Assuming standard 1500 byte Ethernet max payloads: how many IPv4 fragments will be needed to transfer 2000 bytes of user data with a single UDP send? And, how do the 2000 bytes get split over the frags?
2. Despite its conceptual elegance, RPC (Remote Procedure Call) has a few problems. Discuss any 3 of those in brief.
3. Why is timestamping needed in real-time applications? This is in the context of Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP).
4. Why does UDP exist? Would it not have been enough to just let user processes send raw IP packets?
5. Explain how QUIC eliminates a couple of RTTs usually needed at the start of a secure web connection.
