manage customer relationships and service response logistics. For example, Walmart was the first company to use Universal Product Code bar codes that stores level information, which is instantly collected and analysed through Wal-Mart’s personal satellite system, Retail Link. This allows analysts to forecast supplier demands as they have access to real-time sales data from cash registers and to Wal-Mart’s distribution centres. Even more recently, the company has begun using smart tags, read by…

The health service organization researched for this assignment is Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Bethesda Maryland. Walter Reed National Military Medical Center (WRNMMC) is the nation largest military medical center providing services in over 100 clinics and specialties for military beneficiaries in the National Capital Region (NCR) (WRNMMC, 2016). In terms of the segmentation variables, the primary target market for WRNMMC can be two fold, demographic and psychographic.…

To this day stories, theories, beliefs, and much more have been created to simply satisfy our understanding on how the universe was created. Curiosity has been the key for all these definitions and through generations of humans many questions have been asked on the lines of How did our universe begin? How old is our universe? How did matter come to exist? However, these are very complicated questions that we to this day have no confirmed answer to but our history on this planet has lead to some…

escalate as both countries poured effort into space missile programs. Although both had powerful names and appearances to uphold coming out of the war, the Soviet Union launched the first satellite into space, Sputnik 1, in October of 1957. The United States scrambled to meet the challenge, and sent their first satellite into space in 1958, their first man into space in 1961, and their first man into orbit in 1962. Where are the women throughout all of this progress and exploration?…

In this proposed study, for objective assessment of the GPM IMERG rainfall for crop yield forecast, we will use a crop simulation model (CSM). One of the main goals of CSM is to estimate agricultural production as a function of weather (e.g., rainfall and ambient temperature) and soil conditions as well as crop management. The CSM uses sets of differential equations, and calculate both rate and state variables over time, normally from planting until harvest maturity. The CSM will enable us to…

that happens on the media internationally is controlled by this group. The fourth group is the Media Bureau (MB). The Media Bureau is the most recognized of the seven because it watches over broadcast radio and television also overseeing cable and satellite services. Individuals in the broadcasting business whether it be TV, radio, or podcasts are monitored by this group and are required to go over licensing and policies to air their content. Fifth is the Public Safety & Homeland Security. The…

In celebration of black history month I would like to recognize Annie Easley who is a mathematician and computer scientist who helped develop power technology analysis software for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Her parents Mary Melvina Hoover and Samuel Bird Easley didn’t have any other child outside of Annie making her an only child between them. Ms. Easley was born April 23, 1933 in Birmingham, Alabama, where she completed grade school and high school. Fifth…

Imagine being in a plane that ends up being one of the most mysterious plane crashes in history. You don’t have much time to live before it crashes. But remember that no one will find you once you’re gone… This plane is the Malaysia flight 370. One of the most mysterious plane crashes in history.. When Malaysia flight 370 was in motion, there were officials that tracked the plane, theories that were concluded from the evidence found from the plane , and ruins that were left after the crash.…

that the explorers would travel on foot or animals, depending where they were, and try to find an ancient place or artifact. This technique wasn't that great with finding things and it took a long time. In 2011, most explorers turned to infrared satellite archeology. "Infrared stellite imagery detects these differences in density, revealing buried roads, tombs, and cities" (Juan De Los Santos, Anicent Civilizations, Paragraph 2). This quote means that the infrared technology highlights the…
