Software licensing security is a two-pronged approach – to firstly, ensuring
that users remain in compliance with developer license agreements and
secondly, to implementing anti-piracy measures. The common goal, is to
maximize profits and minimize losses from the sale of developed
application/s.
Draw a UML class diagram that models the aspects of software licensing
security solutions which are described below:
_________________________________________________________
1http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator
(a) Every development using software licensing security begins with the
purchase of a licensing development kit.
(b) With each purchase, the developer is handed over a unique Qual Code
(Batch Qualification Code) and a corresponding hashed vendor key.
(c) The Qual code is used to authenticate with different protection keys (of
different applications from the same developer) and differentiate vendor
keys from those of other software developers.
(d) The Qual Code contains five alphanumeric characters that represent the
developer’s unique vendor code.
(e) A feature is an identifiable functionality of a developed application.
(f) Features can offer implicit (e.g. identify .exe files, software modules,
extension and plug-ins, etc.) or explicit (e.g. file format conversion, print,
save, etc.) functionalities.
(g) Individual features can be locked and / or unlocked using generated
protection keys from both Qual code and vendor key.
(h) Each protected software product has some features and is associated
with a Qual Code.
(i) The protection key is generated from a unique feature id and name
combination.
(j) Each software product can be further categorized according to the level
of entitlement/s it gives to its user through a specific locking type
mechanism (using a combination of protection keys).
(k) For example, a software base product can contain all the product
attributes such as features, licensing data and memory, and can be used
as a product offered for sale.
(l) A provisional product can be packaged as a distributed trialware where
key essential features remain locked or that its use is limited to a specific
timeframe.

Write
a 2- to 3-page paper that addresses the following:
· Explain how the factor you selected might influence the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes in the patient from the case study you were assigned.
· Describe how changes in the processes might impact the patient’s recommended drug therapy. Be specific and provide examples.
· Explain how you might improve the patient’s drug therapy plan and explain why you would make these recommended improvements.

Show all necessary Stata output and commands used in answering the questions. ? Answer the question asked and justify your answer. This will usually require reference to and interpretation of relevant parts of the Stata output you have provided. ? Occasional manual calculations may be required but only show these if specifically asked. ? Use Stata to create any graphs. Resize your graphs appropriately so that more than one will fit to a page. ? You need to effectively communicate the results of your analyses. Thus the presentation of your assignment, such as the formatting and how you express yourself, may affect your mark
Questiona. [2 marks] Using the mixed command with an unstructured residual covariance matrix, fit a linear model to model the change in the measured bmd with the visit number where visit is treated as a categorical variable. Your model should include group and a group x visit interaction term. Provide appropriate graphs (or graph) that show(s) the variation in individuals as well as the predicted means based on this model. (Hint: Although you are using the mixed command, none of your models should use random effects. The dependency between repeated measures is modelled by specifying a covariance structure for the model residuals.) b. [2 marks] The model in part a can be considered a “maximal” model for the mean in this study. Using the mixed command with this maximal model for the mean, fit additional models using the compound symmetry and first order autoregressive covariance structures. Use the estat wcorrelation command in Stata to ‘display model-implied within-cluster correlations and standard deviations’ for each of the three models fitted so far in this question. Comment on the similarities or differences between these. c. [1 mark] Which of these three covariance structures is ‘best’ for modeling the residuals from these models. (Hint: Your answer to part b may give some insight but appropriate hypothesis tests together with assessment of the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) may also be useful for assessing which of the covariance structures tried is most appropriate.) d. [3 marks] Using the covariance structure you determined as “best” in part c, fit two additional models for the mean using a linear trend and a quadratic trend in visit number. Which of the three models for the mean is most appropriate? Why? (Hint: You should ‘center’ the visit variable before fitting the quadratic trend model. For example, create a new variable using gen visit3=visit-3. AIC, appropriate hypothesis tests and/or residual plots may be useful to justify your answer.) e. [2 mark] Does the way the measured bmd changes with visit differ with treatment group? Justify your answer using appropriate hypothesis tests based on the model you have assessed as “best” in part d. Also comment on the size of the effect. (Note: Although I expect they will give similar results, both Wald and likelihood ratio tests are required for full marks.) f. [1 mark] Compare the part d model using a linear trend to the linear trend model from Question 1 fitted using the regress command. Is there much difference in the parameters and their standard errors? Does this match your expectations? g. [1 mark] The calcium_Stata12.dta data set available on Blackboard is exactly the same data but is already in long form, some of the variables are expressed slightly differently, and it also contains the actual age of the girls at each visit. How might your analysis change if you were to use age rather than the visit number as your longitudinal variable? Which approach is more appropriate?

You work at CareShore as a Case Manager. As part of your role, you are required to assess client development to identify and respond to any issues.
Today, you are meeting with Casey, a 15-year-old female who was referred to you after being caught shoplifting. This was not Casey’s first offence. She has a history of offences relating to underage drinking, damage and theft.
When Casey arrives, you immediately notice that she is thin and looks withdrawn. Her skin is pale. She is dressed in an over-sized jumper and jeans. Her hair is long and does not look like it has been brushed.
When questioned, Casey tells you that she stole some jewellery and sunglasses as a birthday present for herself. She states that her family had not given her anything, so she felt upset.
Casey lives with her mother and stepfather. She also has two younger half-siblings that live with her. These children are the offspring of her mother and step-father. Casey does not have any contact with her biological father. Casey does have an older sibling who shares the same paternity as her, however this sibling is currently incarcerated for drug related offences.
The family is reliant on Centrelink payments for support and both Casey’s mother and stepfather suffer from depression.
During Casey’s early years, the family moved around frequently. Her biological father left when she was 3 months old and has not had contact with Casey since. Due to her mother’s depression, Casey and her older sibling were raised by their maternal grandmother from the time Casey was 6 months old until aged 2.
Casey says she goes out most nights as she doesn’t like being at home. She says that her step-father drinks a lot and she prefers to keep out of his way. Casey usually stays at her friend’s houses until it gets late and her mother and step-father are likely to be asleep. Some nights, Casey has slept in her friend’s shed, using her coat as a blanket.
Casey said that she feels tired and cold most of the time. She also coughs frequently. When asked, she says she hasn’t seen a doctor. The family has moved several times and has not had a regular GP.
Casey is still attending school, but her attendance has been irregular. Casey was attending a youth centre, but has not attended for the last 6 months. She said that she couldn’t afford to pay for the bus trip to get to the appointment so it was too hard to go. She said the youth centre had offered to reimburse her for travel costs, but said that was ‘useless as I couldn’t pay for it in the first place anyway’.
Casey’s mother and step-father state that they are fed up with Casey’s behaviour and the trouble that she causes.
