What would you do?

 

There is a famous and controversial story about a 1961–62 experiment by Yale social psychologist Stanley Milgram to investigate how people respond to orders given by people in authority. Much has been written about this experiment and details have been changed and embellished over the years, but the basic ethical issues it raises are still worth considering, even if the details of the actual study have been distorted.

 

The participants were ordinary residents of New Haven who were asked to administer increasingly high levels of electric shocks to participants when they made errors in the tasks they were given. As the electric shocks got more and more severe, so did the apparent pain of the participants receiving them, to the extent that some appeared to be on the verge of dying. Not surprisingly, those administering the shocks became increasingly disturbed by what they were being asked to do, but several continued, believing that they should do as their superiors told them. What they did not realize was that the so-called participants were, in fact, very convincing actors who were not being injured at all. Instead, the shock administrators were themselves the real subjects of the experiment. It was their responses to authority that were being studied in this deceptive experiment.

 

This story raises several important ethical issues. First, this experiment reveals how power relationships can be used to control others. Second and equally important, this experiment relied on deception. The experimenters were, in fact, the subjects and the fake participants colluded with the real scientists to deceive them. Without this deception the experiment would not have worked.

 

Is it acceptable to deceive subjects to this extent for the sake of scientific discovery? What do you think?

According to our text on page 335, NSAIDs are described to be nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This means that they are used to combat inflammation and reduce pain. Examples of these drugs include Naproxen (Aleve), Aspirin, and Ibuprofen (Motrin).

I found an article outlining the major differences between NSAIDs and Acetaminophen. One of the key differences that I noted from this article was that both medication helps to relieve pain and reduce fevers, but only NSAIDs could reduce inflammation (Harvard Health, 2015).

Acetaminophen can best treat ailments such as headaches and muscle aches. According to the National Library of Medicine, acetaminophen can also help to reduce fevers (Acetaminophen, 2014). The medication acetaminophen belongs to a class of medications called analgesics (pain relievers) and antipyretics (fever reducers).

Naproxen best treats aches, fevers, and inflammation or swelling. Some key reasons to use the NSAID naproxen would be conditions like arthritis, bursitis, and muscle aches. The page on the National Library of Medicine for Naproxen, the medication “works by stopping the body’s production of a substance that causes pain, fever, and inflammation” (Naproxen, 2014).

Aspirin belongs to the class of medications known as salicylates. This class of medications work to stop the production of that cause fever, pain, swelling, and blood clots. The National Library of Medicine also has a page for information on aspirin. The article mentions that aspirin best works to reduce fever, aid in the prevention of heart attack, and is used to relieve the symptoms of arthritis (Aspirin, 2016).

The National Library of Medicine lists information for the final medication of this discussion, as well. Ibuprofen is listed as a member of the NSAID class of medications, just like Naproxen. As it is similar to the other members of this class, Ibuprofen works to reduce inflammation, pain, and fever. Some common ailments that could be treated with Ibuprofen include: headaches, muscle aches, arthritis, menstrual pain, and fever (Ibuprofen, 2016).

Additionally, you may create and / or assume all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of this assignment.

One of the main functions of any business is to be able to use data to leverage a strategic competitive advantage. This feat hinges upon a company’s ability to transform data into quality information. The use of relational databases is a necessity for contemporary organizations; however, data warehousing has become a strategic priority due to the enormous amounts of data that must be analyzed along with the varying sources from which data comes. Since you are now the CIO of a data-collection company which gathers data by using Web analytics and operational systems, you must design a solution overview that incorporates data warehousing. The executive team needs to be clear about what data warehousing can provide the company.

Section 1: Design Document

  1. Write a four to six (4-6) page design document in which you:      
    • Support the need for data warehousing within your company and elaborate on the best practices that the company will adhere to.

    • Create an Entity-Relationship (E-R) Diagram relating the tables of your database schema through the use of graphical tools in Microsoft Visio or an open source alternative such as Dia. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length but must be included in the design document appendix. Explain your rationale behind the design of your E-R Diagram.
    • Create a Data Flow Diagram (DFD) relating the tables of your database schema through the use of graphical tools in Microsoft Visio or an open source alternative such as Dia. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length but must be included in the design document appendix.
    • Illustrate the flow of data including both inputs and outputs for the use of a data warehouse. The diagram must map data between source systems, data warehouses and specified data marts. The diagram should map data between source systems, data warehouses, and specified data marts. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length.

Grumheed Corporation

 

Dallas/Fort Worth Facility

 

 

 

Grumheed Corporation (GC), a world leader in advanced tactical drones, plans to open a facility in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.  While having not settled on an exact location, ideally the facility will be within two miles of the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport via major highway. While maintaining our original facility in Boston, the new campus will become the primary location for research and demonstration of equipment and sales.  Since our company produces state-of-the-art military equipment, this new complex must have all possible security measures.  Visitors, potential customers, current customers, support staff, design engineers and demonstration staff will all be housed in this 100,000 square foot facility. For BC/DR purposes the data warehouse will be duplicated to the Boston facility nightly.

 

 

 

This is a list of requirements facility:

 

·         Controlled access to the building for everyone.

 

·         A lobby, conference area, and sales area that needs controlled access

 

·         A highly secure area for system designers

 

·         An extremely secure area to house the data center.

 

·         Secure transfer of archival data between Dallas and Boston

 

·         Secure access to the Internet for employees

 

 

 

Please present a detailed proposal of your recommendations for physical, technical and administrative security measures for our new facility. In your proposal please recommend categories of countermeasures and the associated risks that the countermeasures mitigate. You are not expected to recommend a specific brand/model of a countermeasure. Please include a section detailing additional risks that have not been mitigated by your proposal.  Your proposal should be a minimum of 1500 words and properly site all references.
