A Basic Network 4.2











The diagram above is a client server network. The client/ server inputs information to be transferred using the transmission medium. Over the transmission medium are protocols, which are rules that give guidelines on how to transmit the information to the receiver/ server. There are two types of ways the information can be transmitted. Through cable, a wire connection or a physical pathway, or wireless, transmits through the air. After the information has been sent it goes through a process called digitizing, which converts the information into bits. This way the computer can decipher, and break down the information.

IFS H/W Infrastructure 4.1




In the image to the left, it shows that a person (human) entered the word Hello by using one of the information technologies (the keyboard). Because the computer does not understand the letters, it processes the information entered with the Processing Technologies. Such as the ALU (Arithmetic logic Unit) which adds, or compares the information entered. The information that was entered is translated to binary code, also known as machine language, so that the computer can understand it. It then passes through the CPU which holds the systems unit and control unit which schedules the events in outputing the information entered. The computer stores bits, bytes, and so forth. Finally the information is then translated to ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) which is the unicode for outputing the information. The output is released translating to the word which was entered, hello.

The Automobile Industry:

1.) How is Globalization 3.0 fueling change in the auto industry?
     - The Globalization of the Automobile industry would widespread, and it would be a world full of auto makers.The globalization of the world has become more homogeneous, where every thing has been the same.

2.)  Examine how cultural differences make it difficult to create a world car.

Globalization Enablers 2.1

Reading this case study , I learned about the foundation of Flickr.com and the many features that it gives its users. Flickr.com enables the users to be able to share photos from all over , past , and present events. When visiting the website , it offers users the ability to upload pics, edit photos, and explore different photos.
3 enablers that allow Flickr to be able to use these services would be:
  •  Netscape went Public because it allows different data to be transported in many different areas of the internet.
  • Uploading because with Flickr you can upload many photos to the internet
  • In-forming because it allows you to be able to use the availible search engines

Organizational Chart 1.3

Above is the organizatonal chart formed by our group. We chose 3 jobs that seemed to be important to benefit our company. Our jobs; highlighted in purple, consists of Development, Support Manager, and Maintenance Manager are important because these jobs help create and form our company together. Below the 3 important jobs are other jobs that would fall under the main jobs. For example, under the Support Manager, you would have the IFS Auditor, DBA(Database Administrator), Network Administrator, and Security. These job would help support the company by checking the errors in the system, controlling the creation of the databases, controlling files that are being sent from the company, and protecting the servers an systems.
