organizations can do to protect client data comprehensively and how they do this. It will also examine the most common forms of data customers generate, and take a look at some of the contemporary hardware and software that organizations protecting and handling data in the cloud use presently.
Common Types of Customer Data

Data Identity:

The individual is at the core of any database, so gaining an insight into how a person is, and having the ability to maintain a homogenous point-of-view for customers is the first step in the identification of data. This should embrace all the information that can make it possible for a person to be specially identified (oberts, 2013)

Such information should include:

Personal information -- Date/place of birth, gender etc.

Postal Address -- Address line, street, name of building, number of building etc.

Identity -- Title, first name (Surname), forename, designation, letters etc.

Contact -- Work telephone number, home number, mobile number,…...

wireless computing technology, e.g., remote access to the company or corporate network creates many benefits for an enterprise, such as increased mobility and flexibility, but anonymity almost always also makes a network vulnerable. An intruder might attack from thousands of miles away and never come into direct contact with the system, its administrators or users (Pfleeger and Pfleeger, 2007, p. 397).
Therefore authentication, e.g., a process of determining that a system user is the person who he declares to be is required. It must be handled carefully and correctly in a network because a network involves authentication not just of people but of businesses, servers, and services only loosely associated with a person (Pfleeger & Pfleeger, 2007, p. 398).

Authentication is most commonly done by the use of log-on passwords. Knowledge of the password is assumed to guarantee that the user is the person he purports to be. Nevertheless, passwords are…...

These displaced workers need to have the opportunity to re-invent themselves and discover additional core strengths they can transition into new careers with. In effect the programs essential for transitioning workers misplaced by automation need to resemble the processes in technology incubator (Cooper, Park, 2008) where core strengths of new technologies are found and applied to problems. The same development and nurturing process needs to happen for these workers as well. To give them income, healthcare or any "safety net" is to invite them to give up on improving themselves. Instead, the focus needs to be on giving them an opportunity to contribute in organizations again and get focused on pursuing a new career. During the training period financial assistance needs to be provided, yet to completely subsidize their lives due to their jobs being replaced by automation is a mistake. Incenting these workers to go after entirely new…...

Internet Inter-OR Protocol (IIOP)
Java Network Computing Technologies

Internet Inter-OR Protocol (IIOP) is a protocol that enables distributed programs located anywhere in the Internet to communicate with each other. It is an interoperability protocol that supports heterogeneous environments. IIOP offers possible communication between applications regardless of the platform and programming elements used in their development.

IIOP is an element of Object Management Group's (OMG) standard architecture called CORA (Common Object Request roker Architecture). It is a TCP/IP-based protocol and a GIOP mapping that provides standard communication methods between ORs. OR (Object Request roker) is a communication mediator used by CORA during requests and data interchange between clients and servers.

CORA/IIOP is a solution to the complexity that web applications are now becoming. efore, protocols are specifically developed on the basis of applications to allow compatibility in communication. ut with CORA/IIOP, communication is possible between diverse application platforms.

IIOP technology is an element of Internet applications…...

The modeling environments was so accurate it could deliver results that aligned at a 95% accuracy rate with the actual results achieved. Another advantage was the use of knowledge management to orchestrate multichannel selling, marketing and service scenarios across the client's specific requirements and needs. The analytics and knowledge management systems were also combined successfully to create a constraint-based engine as well. All of these factors were critical to the success of the system.
The cons of this modeling approach were the lack of precision on pricing ands the ability to model the more finely-tuned aspects of the programs. There was not enough data to create a profitability measurement and the use of constraint modeling at times could leave out the more unpredictable aspects of the marketing mix. hile the virtual marketplace proved effective for testing message, media and defining audience, it lacks the precision necessary for making long-term, highly…...

Technology in Instructional Delivery: The Case of Capella University
The use of technology, particularly Internet technology, in instructional delivery in educational institutions has revolutionized the way people access and utilize educational information. Online instructional delivery, either in mixed (combination of traditional and online modes of instruction) or purely online formats, have made learning more interactive, not only between the learner and the tool, but also between the teacher and learner and among learners themselves. This increasing demand for an online mode of instruction delivery in educational institutions is a reflection of the need to not only adopt the new technology, but also to 'manipulate' this technology to suit the users' learning needs (oschmann, 1996:8). The following description of the technology of instructional delivery at Capella University demonstrates this point.

In addition to its traditional format of instructional delivery, which is face-to-face classroom setting, Capella University has an online learning system that is…...

This is necessary to provide a seamless platform on which health solutions can be effectively integrated and deployed. Without using such a platform, the development of electronic health care facilities will be more difficult to deploy. In other words, Tele-health is part of the overall healthcare ICT (Information Communications Technology) solutions that enables healthcare to be pushed out to the edge, for local delivery, and to be more evenly, efficiently and effectively distributed.
Broadband communication is the underlying technology of choice when discussing electronic applications. It is certainly important for inter-healthcare provider communications delivering sufficient bandwidth capacity between sites. The delivery of home care electronic should not rely on the broadband technology is not universally accessible, particularly in rural and remote areas, and it can also be prohibitively expensive.

The cloud computing platform has also made it possible for companies to integrate their information technologies and services into a common strategy; a goal that had not been attainable in the past (Buttol, Buonamici, Naldesi, inaldi, Zamagni, Masoni, 2012).
A second strategic technology that is driving a high level of innovation in organizations is mobility and the rise of mobile computing, incouding the latest generation of operating systems in this area. Apple's iOS, Google's Android and many other operating systems are the foundation of disruptive innovation throughout many enterprises today. The early advances in mobile technologies are a case in point, as are the continued development of medical applications for the Apple iPad (Wickramasinghe, Sharma, Goldberg, 2003). Mobility is also showing the potential to be a technology that can support precise geo-positioning and analysis of the best delivery routes for courier services and supply chain-based companies as well.

It should also be noted that adults are life, task or problem-centered in their course to learning. They want to see the applicability of what they are learning to their life, a task they need to perform, or to solving a problem. Technology-based instruction will be more effective if it encompasses real-life examples or circumstances that adult learners may come across in their life or on the job. While adult learners may respond to exterior motivators, internal priorities are more significant. Incentives such as improved job satisfaction, self-esteem and quality of life are vital in giving adults a purpose to learn. If any of these can be related as part of technology-based instruction adults will act in response more positively.

The efforts of the federal government have been thoroughly and extensively backed up by fiscal funds given by the numerous states, districts, businesses, and parents (NCES, 2000). However, the overall literacy and literature education of students with the incorporation of technology has been primarily negative and this needs to change with time as the overall long-term impact of this negative pattern will be very damaging to the mindset of students and the overall literacy activities that they engage in.

Technology Support
Building Effective Technology Support Teams: A esearch Thesis

The effectiveness of technology support teams depends on the ability to combine theoretical and contextual technology support (Harich, 2006), as well as to share understandings with different kinds of specialists (Koutsoulis, 2006). In addition, the conduciveness of the social context for realizing intrinsic work goals-especially learning and mastering new technology support and skills-is an important aspect of the job.

ecruitment

Hiring is especially important since organizations often rely on the exploitation of technology support to achieve competitive advantage and the difference between hiring an average and a high-potential candidate can significantly affect an organization's reputation and profitability.

Graduates were hired on an annual basis, while experienced persons were recruited when vacancies arose. The emphasis in the workflows we studied was on hiring for immediate organizational requirements, so that, compared with the number of experienced hires, there were relatively few recent graduates. Positions requiring experienced employees…...

A client/server system is also referred to as a client/server network as it relies on a series of integrated systems in which the processing power is distributed between a central server and a number of client computers (Brown, DeHayes, Hoffer, Martin, Perkins, 2009). A client can be either an application, as is the case with Salesforce.com accessing customer data for example on a remote server through a Web browser, or a complete computer system accessing a server. Increasingly clients are Web browser-based and rely…...

As a result, there is greater flexibility in creating individualized learning plans and isolating the contribution this specific interactive technology allows for increasing student retention and long-term learning. The bottom line is that interactive technologies such as the smart board can deliver statistically significant increases in student performance when their scores are compared before and after the introduction of scaffolding and interactive instruction (Halden, 258, 259).
Summary

At the intersection of process improvement and teaching technologies is the definition of solutions which are significantly increasing the effectiveness of teaching. The reliance on scaffolding strategies both in small groups and individually, when combined with technologies, shows significant potential to re-order the productivity of teaching elementary school students.
