Background and Problem Description
In this section, you need to give clear and brief explanations on:
1) Background of the research
2) The problem you want to solve
2) The motivation to do this research, the significance of this work
3) Describe the subproblems
Staff at xxxx campus are no longer allocated dedicated parking space. Instead they would be allowed to park in designated staff permit zones, which are dispersed around the campus. Information about vacant parking space is not readily available so staff cruise around looking for free parking slots in the designated staff permit parking zones.
In my research, lam going to explore ways on how governments; universities; cities and engineers around the world have solved this problem, and how I can improve on these solutions and find a cost efficient way to solve this problem at xxxxxxcampus using ‘ internet of things’ (IoT) real time monitoring system. What is IoT? Explain
IOT has made the urban more livable, reduce traffic chaos and lessen the stress drivers face searching around for a parking lot. It has also helped to curtail time wasted by drivers cruising around looking for a parking space. Carbon dioxide emissions are reduced as a result. My motivation is to find a simpler cost-effecent and reliable smart parking solution at xxxxxCampus and hope staff at this great institution will enjoy similar benefits like boosted morale as opposed to frustration of finding a parking space. Happy staff are highly productive.

Strayer University
BUS499 Business Administration Capstone
Dr. Grizzell, Dr. Gardner
Date
Everything in Blue below should be deleted
Due Week 8 and worth 150 points
Using the corporation you chose from Assignment 1, examine its industry. Research the company on its own Website, the public filings on the Securities and Exchange Commission EDGAR database (http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml), in the University’s online databases, and any other sources you can find. The annual report will often provide insights that can help address some of these questions. NOTE: Be sure to read Chapters 1 – 10 in the course textbook and complete the LEARN E-Activities for Weeks 1-8 as they set the foundation to this assignment. Be sure to cite your sources! Begin your paper on Page 2 and write a minimum of six (6) pages (does not include Title or Source pages).
Week 8 Assignment 3
Write your brief introduction here: It should not be more than 1 good paragraph (about 5 complete sentences) to introduce the reader to your topic and it should explain in detail what your paper will be discussing. Much of your introduction may be taken from the assignment itself (in your own words). Read the scenario to get a feel for what the paper is about and explain what your paper will be discussing – so be sure to review the Assignment instructions AND Rubric for understanding. Finally, please ask me any questions about this assignment.
Business-Level Strategies
Analyze the business-level strategies for the corporation you chose to determine the business-level strategy you think is most important to the long-term success of the firm and whether or not you judge this to be a good choice (Note: in this step you need to choose and write about only one (1) business-level strategy from the text book (not Google). Justify your opinion. For background, be sure to research and explain the industry in which your selected corporation operates. You could also briefly (1 – 2 sentences) define the business-level strategy (cite your sources) you are writing about using the textbook/Learn, as an introduction to your analysis. Read Chapter 4 in the course textbook. Review the Week 4 Learn video/Lecture for supporting content. In this section, you will want to research and identify the core competencies of your chosen firm. Demonstrate from your research how the firm uses its core competencies to create and sell its products in the marketplace. What actions & choices has the firm made to compete in individual product markets? Hint: “Every firm must form and use a business-level strategy.” (Hitt, Ireland, & Hoskisson, 2013, pp. 102). Review Chapters 4-9 for specifics on the business-level strategies.
Corporate-Level Strategies
Analyze the corporate-level strategies for the corporation you chose to determine the corporate-level strategy you think is most important to the long-term success of the firm and whether or not you judge this to be a good choice (Note: in this step you need to choose and write about only one (1) corporate-level strategy from the text book (not Google). Justify your opinion.
You should briefly define (1 – 2 sentences) corporate-level strategy based upon the textbook/lectures (cite your sources) as part of your analysis. Read Chapter 6 in the course textbook. Review the Week 6 Learn video/Lecture for supporting content.
Competitive Environment
Analyze the competitive environment to determine the corporation’s most significant competitor (this will require research/cite your sources). Compare their strategies at each level (market commonality, resource similarity, competitive behavior, and competitive dynamics/actions/responses) and evaluate which company you think is most likely to be successful in the long term. Justify your choice. Hint: read Chapter 5 in the course textbook as it provides a solid background and clues on this model that apply to this section. Review the Week 4 Learn video Lecture for supporting content (cite your sources).
Market Cycles
Determine whether your choice from Question 3 (Competitive Environment section above) would differ in slow-cycle and fast-cycle markets. It would be a good idea to briefly (1 – 2 sentences) explain what the slow-cycle and fast-cycle markets are from the textbook (cite your sources) as a short introduction to your determination. Hint: read Chapter 5 in the course textbook with a special focus on the Competitive Dynamics section. Review the Week 4 Learn video Lecture for supporting content (cite your sources).

Task 2: Digital Forensics Report (20%) (20 marks)
In this major task you are assumed a digital forensics investigator and asked to prepare a digital forensic report for the following scenario:
You are investigating a possible intellectual property theft by a new employee of Superior Bicycles, Inc. This employee, Tom Johnson, is the cousin of Jim Shu, an employee who had been terminated. Bob Aspen is an external contractor and investor who gets a strange e-mail from Terry Sadler about Jim Shu’s new project (shown in Figure 8-5 of the textbook on p. 350). Bob forwards the e-mail to Chris Robinson (the president of Superior Bicycles) to inquire about any special projects that might need capital investments. Chris forwards the e-mail to the general counsel, Ralph Benson, asking him to look into it. He also forwards it to Bob Swartz, asking him to have IT look for any e-mails with attachments. After a little investigation, Bob Swartz forwards an e-mail IT found to Chris Robinson (shown in Figure 8-6 of the textbook on p. 350).
Chris also found a USB drive on the desk Tom Johnson was assigned to. Your task is to search for and determine whether the drive contains any proprietary Superior Bicycles, Inc. data in the form of any digital photograph as an evidence. In particular, you may look for graphic files such as JPEG on the USB drive hidden with different format. Note for the USB drive image, you need to download the “C08InChp.exe” file from the download section of Chapter 8 on the student companion site of the textbook (Nelson, Phillips, & Steuart, 6/e, 2019).
Your task is to search all possible places data might be hidden (e-mails and USB drive) and recover and present any digital evidence in the report.

Sorted Linked Array List (SLAL)
You are tasked to implement a linear data structure that is essenetially a linked list of arrays. Each node of the linked list has at most k elements and at least floor(k/2) elements unless the linked list has only one node. In that case, the node can have 0 to k elements stored in the node.
This data structure stores numbers in ascending sorted order (from small to large) and supports the operations to find, insert and delete numbers.
Implement Find Methods:
Given a number, implement methods to (1) find the node that may contain the number, and (2) find the location of the number in the node, or (3) report that the number is not in the list.
Implement Insert Methods
Given a number, implement methods to (1) insert the number to SLAL and ensure that the constraints are not violated or (2) report that the number is already in the list.

Using the systematic review report completed for the first assignment, you are required to write an article for publication in a nursing journal. The first activity for this assignment is to identify a suitable journal to target with your article. The selection of a target journal will be determined by the nature and focus of your systematic review. If this is your first time writing an article for publication it may be best to select a local or national journal, or one produced by a professional organisation. If you have published before, you may like to consider an international nursing journal.This article should provide a summary of the topic, purpose, review method, findings and a discussion of the findings and the implications for practice or research. For most journals you will also be required to write an abstract that provides a succinct summary of the article.This assignment requires you to identify a journal suitable for the topic of your review and write an article summarising the findings of your systematic review. To do this, you must first find the journal’s ‘Information for Authors’. This will describe the expected format, length and style of referencing required for articles submitted to that journal. A copy of the Information for Authors document should be included when you submit your article to the course coordinator.While it is not part of the assessment, on completion of this course you may wish to consider actually submitting the article to the journal.
ASSESSMENT 1: PROTOCOL OUTLINE Due Date: Semester 1 Week 3 Semester 2 Week 3 Weighting: 0% Length: 250 words (equivalent) Topic You are required to provide a protocol outline with your review question and inclusion criteria. You need to verify that there is not an existing systematic review that is current and of reasonable quality. You should include the review question, inclusion criteria and a brief description of your review methods. You will be provided with feedback about the suitability of your review topic and question. ASSESSMENT 2: SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REPORT Due Date: Semester 1 Week 9 Semester 2 Week 10 Weighting: 70% Length: 5,000 words (equivalent) Topic You are required to conduct a systematic review of the literature on one aspect of your nursing practice and submit for assessment a 5000 word systematic review report. The focus of the systematic review must be negotiated with the course coordinator. A high standard of presentation is expected. A detailed review protocol should be developed in consultation with your supervisor prior to commencement of the systematic review. This protocol describes how the review is to be undertaken and the processes to be used. The systematic review report should provide a comprehensive summary of the review. This information should address the purpose of the review, the method, findings, discussion and implications. For further information about the format of this report, refer to Appendix 1.
