The arrival of new technologies as helped improve many aspects of life. For example, License Plate Recognition is a modern technology that has helped improve mobility and safety in transportation (Rashid, Aibinu, Rahman, Suhaimi and Yunis 93). Many car parks have resulted to the use of technology to help in the logistics of operating a car park. Rashid et al., (93) argue that automatic parking systems are progressive because in addition to improving logistics, they also increase the convenience of public parking, eliminate the hassles of fee collection and also enhance the security, especially when the car ...

Abstract

Organizations select operating systems for use in their workstations and servers depending on their preference. In my organization, the preferred operating system is Linux. However, vendors to supply the system and associated support have not been determined. As such, the paper aims at considering different factors of the individual vendors such as reliability, performance, availability of training, and availability of support. Moreover, aspects such as pricing and suitability in different work environments will be considered since each organization is expected to have its advantages and disadvantages. Extensive research from the literature will be conducted to ensure that a clear ...

Methodology

Extraneous variables and how they will be controlled
Extraneous are variables that are not of interest to the research or an experiment and have an effect of adding an error to the final research outcomes and findings (Burns & Grove, 2010). In this regard, it is imperative to control the effect of these variables in order to reduce the magnitude of their effect (Burns & Grove, 2010). Among the extraneous variables apparent to this study include; age, adverse effects due to medication as well as treatment duration. The purpose of this research is essentially to test the effectiveness of patient education ...

Relationship between Preschool Programs and Kindergarten Readiness
Schools today are undergoing a lot of challenges in terms of funds. With budget cuts for early education and limited resources of funding, school readiness to formal education is becoming an area of concern for schools, teachers, and parents. Schools are striving to manage their educational responsibilities by reducing their financial obligations through minimizing the number of teachers and increasing the number of students in each class. This strategy by many schools could not go by without impact on educational performance of students. This impact extends to affect the ...

Introduction

Test reliability is affected by several factors that can cause errors or increase reliability. Psychologists have to consider these factors during tests to ensure the tests are reliable. Furthermore, psychologists should know the difference between systematic and random errors.

Normally, psychologists carry out a test and compare the results against other results. Comparing the test results against pool of many other results of individuals who took the same test could result in errors. This is because there is no guarantee that an individual’s results would be similar to those of other people. The person could be from a different culture, ...

Introduction/Background Information

The high population growth rate and industrialization have predisposed the entire globe to an acute problem of power shortage. The increases in human population lead to higher demands for power since more industries get established to cushion people against any impending challenge of power shortage. Thus, the reliability of power is inherent to the methods of transmission used, efficiency of such methods, economies associated with these methods, safety measures, and the nature and state of materials used in the direct transmission of energy (Melhem, 2013). Current energy transmissions system relies on long-distance transmission lines since electricity is not necessarily ...

Drug testing in the workplace is a widely contested concern that continues to gain importance among various groups including employers, professional bodies, worker associations and government. There are multiple ethical and legal issues surrounding this practice. Existing literature on this issue presents mixed results as regards its desirability (Carpenter, 2006). The prevalence of drug abuse among workers in the U.S alone is alarming. The National Survey on drug Use and Health observed that in 2004 for instance, 75% of drug abusers in the country are workers (Cholakis & Roger, 2007). The implications of such findings are likely to be of significance ...

Negative Word-of-mouth (NWOM) communication, often used as term to denote the negative feedback given by consumers on public online platforms, has emerged to be an important area of study. However, an important dimension of NWOM has so far been ignored in academic literature – the experiences and attitudes of customer service executives towards online consumer complaints. In studying these attitudes and emotions, the current study uses Davidow’s six dimensions of managing and handling complaints by organizations as a theoretical justification. More than half of the six dimensions involve communication between employees and customers. Hence, the employee attitudes and the impact ...
