Chapter 1, Problem 2RQ
Explanation of Solution
Information system is a set of interrelated components which collect, store, process and distribute the information for decision making, controlling and coordinating the business organization. It also helps in analyzing the problem, visualizes the subjects which are complex, and innovates in creating new products.
The important information within the organization such as significant places, things and people are stored in the information systems. It collaborates people, technology and organization elements in the business to find a perfect solution for the problem.
Components of IS:
The information systems contains three components, they are,
- People:
- The dimension of people in the business is their behavior, attitude towards the business and people, and training.
- Technology:
- The technological dimension of information systems is the hardware and software components, networking and data management components involved in the IS.
- Organization:
- The organizational dimension of information systems is the hierarchy of the business, culture of the business and the processes involved in the business.
Data:
- It is the representation of objects and events, which are stored and recorded in the computer.
- It exists in variety of form such as number, value, variable, and so on.
- It is received by the computer in the input stage of the information processing cycle.
- For example,
database in doctor’s office contain a data such as patient name, address, disease, and contact number...

In the past, encryption and decryption were mostly done by substitution and permutation of letters in a text message. study those classic cryptographic schemes Then, develop an automatic cipher using Javascript The cipher should be able to perform the following tasks:
generate keys
encrypt a given plaintext message with a key selected from the list of keys generated
decrypt a given ciphertext message with a known cipher key

- Case Study Instructions: Offshore Wind Energy in the North Sea For this case study, students will analyze the institutional challenges and social rules surrounding offshore wind energy development in the Dutch North Sea, as explored in the case study from the textbook (pages 44-46). Additional resources in this week’s learning module will provide further perspectives on the impact of wind energy on different stakeholders. Students should refer to the syllabus for specific guidelines regarding length, format, and content requirements. Reflection Questions to Consider: What are the key institutional challenges in implementing offshore wind energy in the North Sea? How do formal and informal social rules shape the use of this shared space? What conflicts arise between different stakeholders (e.g., fishermen, naval transport, military, and wind energy developers)? How can policymakers balance economic, environmental, and social considerations when allocating space for wind energy?…arrow_forwardAlphabetic Telephone Number TranslatorMany companies use telephone numbers like 555-GET-FOOD so the number is easier for their customers to remember. On a standard telephone, the alphabetic letters are mapped to numbers in the following fashion: A, B, and C = 2 D, E, and F = 3 G, H, and I = 4 J, K, and L = 5 M, N, and O = 6 P, Q, R, and S = 7 T, U, and V = 8 W, X, Y, and Z = 9 Write a program that asks the user to enter a 10-character telephone number in the format XXX-XXX-XXXX. The application should display the telephone number with any alphabetic characters that appeared in the original translated to their numeric equivalent. For example, if the user enters 555-GET-FOOD, the application should display 555-438-3663.arrow_forwardI would like help to resolve the following casearrow_forward
