Nt1310 Unit 9 Final Project
The intelligent personal assistant field within speech technology is a rapidly expanding field. There is a need for a Director of Software Development for Amazon Echo—Alexa to assist in building, leading, and managing a team of talented technology professionals. Alexa will enable the Echo product line to stay ahead of the software curve amongst many competitors. Software development is the full-cycle process of developing a software product. The software development cycle, assuming the software project management follows the waterfall model, includes: requirement gathering, system analysis, designing, coding, testing, and implementation. A software development team must commit to creating and maintaining (i.e. bug fixes) the source code to remain relevant and progressive against competition. The current products part of the Amazon Echo family, assuming all products utilize the Alexa software, are Amazon Echo, Tap, and Dot. In addition to the physical Echo products, Alexa is a standalone app (Alexa App) and is built into Fire TV. Amazon Echo is unique in the current market in that it is a standalone voice command device. The main competitors of Amazon Echo …show more content…
News and World Report) are: Harvard, Stanford, University of Chicago, University of Pennsylvania, MIT, Northwestern, UC Berkeley, Dartmouth, Yale, and Columbia. The top talent required to meet the demands of leading the Amazon Echo—Alexa software development program ideally would have attended Carnegie Mellon for a Computer Science graduate degree with a research background in the university’s Language Technologies Institute. In addition to Harvard for an MBA. However, Stanford has the top-ranked combined Computer Science (#2) and MBA (#2) course of study. Thus, a graduate from Stanford would also make for an ideal

    A) Thingamajigs and Things has total assets of $45,000 and $9,000 in liabilities. This gives a current ratio of 5.00:1. Wannabees has total assets of $150,000 and $85,000 in liabilities. This gives a current ratio of 1.76:1. Thingamajigs and Things is more likely to be approved for a loan, because it has a higher current ration. This means that their assets are higher than their liabilities (what they owe), and they are more likely to be able to make payments.…

    Check the workstations using ipconfig /all and find out if the ip range is within the address range you assigned, if it is a different address then the workstation failed to contact the DHCP server and has gone into apipa mode. The Network Interface Card might be assigned an incorrect driver. Another possible cause of the problem is that the patch cable is not plugged into the Network Interface Card, or is not connected to a switch on the other end. However, it could be that the server has run out of IP addresses that it can assign to clients. You can easily tell if this is the problem by comparing the size of the DHCP address scope to the number of devices on your network that request IP addresses from the DHCP server. But since only some of the workstations have got addresses the problem might be the DHCP server. Start off by doing some ping tests to verify that the DHCP server is able to communicate across the network. If the DHCP server is able to communicate with other computers on the network, then I recommend verifying that the DHCP server has an IP address that is compatible with the scope that the server is configured to assign addresses from. The server itself has to be assigned a static address in the same subnet range, such as 192.168.0.199. If this still doesn’t solve the problem make sure that the DHCP server is still authorized by the Active Directory to lease IP addresses. You should also check to verify that the scope is active, and that the necessary services are running on the DHCP server.…

    In Unit 5 Activity 2 we were asked to predict and then find the brightness and flow rate of a closed circuit with a three cell battery pack, a long bulb, a capacitor parallel to the long bulb, and a round bulb. I originally predicted that the round bulb would be brighter when the circuit was first closed and when the circuit reached a steady state, and that the wire between the round bulb and the negative side of the battery would have a higher flow rate than the other wires. However, in the steady state the long bulb was actually brighter, and all the wires had the same flow rate. The new data allowed me to understand how different resistances in bulbs affects the brightness of bulbs in the circuit.…

    The project contains two parts, photogrammetric survey, and GIS analysis. The photogrammetric survey part was done by Agisoft photoscan software. This kind of survey is desired in many fields, such as Archeology field. This is because of the tendency of collapsing in Archeology’s targets. On the other hand, ArcMap and ArcScene are responsible for the data analysis part. With GIS, the complexity of the 3D data can be simplified, the data can be interpreted, and new data can be generated. Plus, we can comfortably work on improving our model by digitizing, coloring, outlining, and updating data even after we finish the project.…

This will list all the processes in the system. Some items you might see using the ps command are PID which is the process ID number, TT or TTY shows the controlling terminal for the process.
