After a workforce has been recruited and developed, managers and human resource management (HRM) professionals must maintain an effective workforce. In a short essay, explain the significance of an effective reward system to maintaining a workforce. Suppose you are the manager of a company. What kind of optional and mandatory benefits would you offer as part of your rewards package? What type of employee compensation system would you use? Why?

Problem 1. One of the consequences of ethanol addiction is fatty liver disease, an illness in which liver cells accumulate large amounts of triacylglycerols, the esters derived from glycerol and fatty acids. Ethanol is oxidized in the cytoplasm of liver cells by alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase to yield acetate and 2 NADH. Acetate is then transported into the mitochondrion, where it is converted to acetyl-CoA and metabolized in the citric acid cycle.

Analyze competitors’ offerings
CASE STUDY SITUATION You are the vice president of development for BULLET, the second largest discount retailer in the nation. The senior VP has asked you to analyze a new sales venture and determine how to build a clientele foe the new venture and for traditional BULLET stores. There are close to 2000 BULLET stores across the country, most anchoring strip malls or outdoor shopping centers. BULLET stores feature typical grocery store items along with pharmacies, apparel, home décor, books, toys, electronics, seasonal items and health and beauty sections. BULLET’S biggest competitor is BOX MART, the leading discount retailer. BULLET does not come close to the number of store locations nor the revenue that BOX MART produces each year. Aside from similar store layouts and product offerings, there are notable differences between the two discount retailers. Although product offerings are similar, BULLET has a much different image than BOX MART. BULLET is perceived to be better organized, with a more streamlined store layout. They are also more in touch with fashion trends and home décor. BULLET also markets higher quality house brands in all departments, most notably in its food and beverage departments. BULLET offers a wide variety of fresh, ready-to-eat meals that beat BOX MART’S offerings in customer ratings each year. Executives at BULLET have decided to test market a concept for a BULLET branded convenience store. The BULLET convenience store will be located away form BULLET stores and will offer fuel and the loyal BULLET customer, and also new clientele who does not usually shop at BULLET stores. They are also hoping to attract the BOX MART customer. YOUR CHALLENGE The senior VP wants you to determine how a BULLET C-store can feel like a BULLET store, rather than a typical convenience store. You are to suggest techniques tha can expose BULLET C-store customers to BULLET retail store products, ideally resulting in a larger clientele for BULLET retail stores. In addition, you need to plan the product mix the BULLET C-stores; what typical convenience store products should be sold and what other products should be sold to keep up with BULLET’S well-regarded image? Are there store services that should be offered or not?

Then think about about gender: the biology of 'male' and 'female,' the performance of masculinity and femininity, the power structures in society, and the culturally constructed gender stereotypes
answer this question: to what extent is gender a product of society, and how does society create gendered individuals?

I want a unique c code for the following parts mentioned below: Please try to solve the following. I am not able to solve it.
I have already provideD the code for Part 1 and Part 2. You may only show their working output screenshots. You JUST need to *MODIFY PART 3* and upload the code for it
Please provide details too by highlighting what you modified,
PERFORM ALL THE PARTS SEPARATELY IN SHELL SERVER AND ATTACH CODE.
DO NOT SIMPLY PASTE THE CODE THAT I PROVIDED. PLEASE UPDATE THE PARTS THAT I MENTIONED BELOW
Details are provided to write code.
PART 1:
I have provided a file (threadhello.c that generates 10 threads, each of which simply prints out a "hello world" message before terminating. Examine this code carefully.
#include <pthread.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#define NUMBER_OF_THREADS 10
/* This is a structure that is used to pass parameters to the thread.
* Currently, the only param is the thread id */
typedef struct
{
int tid;
} paramListType;
/* *params should be pointing to a structure of paramListType */
void *print_hello_world(void *params)
{
paramListType *paramPtr = params;
printf("Hello World. Greetings from thread %d\n", paramPtr->tid) ;
pthread_exit(NULL);
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
pthread_t threads[NUMBER_OF_THREADS];
int status, i;
/* parms will be a pointer to a parmListType structure that will
* contain the thread id value */
paramListType *params;
for(i=0; itid = i;
status = pthread_create(&threads[i], NULL, print_hello_world, (void *) params);
if(status != 0)
{
printf("pthread_create returned error code %d\n", status);
exit(-1);
}
}
/* if the program doesn't wait for all the threads to finish,
* you may not see the print message from some of them */
for(i=0; i<NUMBER_OF_THREADS; i++)
{
status=pthread_join(threads[i], NULL);
}
exit(0);
}
Please also show how to Upload this file (you may use an ftp
client or, better yet, look up how to use the scp command (prefered))
Compile this code using the following command: clang threadhello.c -lpthread
Run this command several times. Submit at least 3 screenshots of different outputs that were all a result of running this code
DELIVERABLE #1: >=3 screenshots of this code correctly running
PART 2:
I have also provided a file threadarray.c Upload and run this program. Run the program several times where you have increased the size of the array.
#include <pthread.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h>
#define ARRAY_SIZE 15
/* This is a structure that is used to pass parameters to the thread.
* Currently, the only param is the thread id */
typedef struct
{
int* arr;
int tid;
} paramListType;
void* threadSum(void* p){
paramListType* ptr = (paramListType*)p;
int n = ptr->tid;
// Declare sum dynamically to return to join:
int* thread_sum = (int*) calloc(1, sizeof(int));
//NOTE: uncomment the printf commands below to see behind the scenes
if(n == 0){
for(int i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE/2; i++){
//printf("Working in thread %d, at position: %d\n", ptr->tid , i );
thread_sum[0] = thread_sum[0] + ptr->arr[i];
}
}
else{
for(int i = ARRAY_SIZE/2; i < ARRAY_SIZE; i++){
//printf("Working in thread %d, at position: %d\n", ptr->tid , i );
thread_sum[0] = thread_sum[0] + ptr->arr[i];
}
}
pthread_exit(thread_sum);
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
// Declare integer array [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]:
int* int_arr = (int*) calloc(ARRAY_SIZE, sizeof(int));
for(int i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE; i++)
int_arr[i] = i + 1;
// Declare arguments for both threads:
paramListType thread_params[2];
thread_params[0].tid = 0;
thread_params[0].arr = int_arr;
thread_params[1].tid = 1;
thread_params[1].arr = int_arr;
// Declare thread IDs:
pthread_t tids[2];
// create threads:
pthread_create(&tids[0], NULL, threadSum, &thread_params[0]);
pthread_create(&tids[1], NULL, threadSum, &thread_params[1]);
// declare sums:
int* sum0;
int* sum1;
// retrieve sum of threads:
pthread_join(tids[0], (void**)&sum0);
pthread_join(tids[1], (void**)&sum1);
printf("Sum of whole array = %i\n", *sum0 + *sum1);
return 0;
}

PART 3: (REALLY IMPORTANT PART)
Change this program so that it fills the array values with (truly) random numbers between 1 and 100. Then, change the program so that it makes use of five (5) threads to sum the values in the array.
Hint: you may want to check that your five thread version is correctly working on known totals before updating your code to run on random values.
