Program Plan Intro

Opening and closing case of Tom Walters tablet project:

  • Tom Walters focuses on just a few internal project stakeholders. He views only a part of the structural frame of college.
  • As his department would do most of the work for administering the tablet project, he concentrates on those stakeholders.
  • He did not involve main customers for this project that is the students at the college.
  • Tom’s view of project stakeholders is very limited because he did not held meetings with senior administrators or faculty at the college.
  • If Tom had expanded his view of structural frame of organization, he could have identified other key stakeholders.
  • If Tom focuses on human resources frame, he would have been able to identify people who would support or oppose requiring tablets.
  • Tom can consider main interest groups that would be affected by the projects outcome by using the political frame.
  • By using symbolic frame, Tom could address what moving to a tablet environment would mean for the college.
  • Tom Walters like many other project managers studied that technical and analytical skills were not enough to guarantee success in project management.
  • The needs of different stakeholders should be identified and addressed in order to be more effective. 

National Football League’s (NFL) adoption of tablet:

  • Microsoft paid NFL 400 dollars before 2014 football season for using their surface as “the official tablet of NFL”.
  • These surfaces replaced hundreds of printers which is used in the past for printing out images of each play.
  • On the tablets as well as replay monitors used by officials there is Microsoft logo.
  • Using tablet, users can review plays over and can mark up images.

Explanation of Solution

Main factors for canceling Tom’s project and continuing National Football League (NFL) tablet project:

  • The president of the college directed a committee for reviewing the concept of requiring students with tablets as several people speak about the idea of having tablets at the faculty meeting.
  • President directed the committee to present a proposal in next month’s faculty meeting to either recommend using tablets or terminate the concept...

⚫ your circuit diagrams for your basic bricks, such as AND, OR, XOR gates and 1 bit multiplexers, ⚫ your circuit diagrams for your extended full adder, designed in Section 1 and ⚫ your circuit diagrams for your 8-bit arithmetical-logical unit, designed in Section 2. 1 An Extended Full Adder In this Section, we are going to design an extended full adder circuit (EFA). That EFA takes 6 one bit inputs: aj, bj, Cin, Tin, t₁ and to. Depending on the four possible combinations of values on t₁ and to, the EFA produces 3 one bit outputs: sj, Cout and rout. The EFA can be specified in principle by a truth table with 26 = 64 entries and 3 outputs. However, as the EFA ignores certain inputs in certain cases, it is easier to work with the following overview specification, depending only on t₁ and to in the first place: t₁ to Description 00 Output Relationship Ignored Inputs Addition Mode 2 Coutsjaj + bj + Cin, Tout= 0 Tin 0 1 Shift Left Mode Sj = Cin, Cout=bj, rout = 0 rin, aj 10 1 1 Shift Right…
