Introduction

Proper presentation of data collected during a study is imperative to the credibility of a research. In fact, lack thereof compromises the interpretation embraced by the people relying on such information due to the possibilities of miscommunication in the presentation process. As such, researchers ought to follow a compelling approach whilst communicating the results of their study regardless of the research design followed. With this in mind, it is worth acknowledging the fact that there are multiple research approaches followed in the delivery of psychological research information. According to the Emergency Medicine Journal, the popular research designs include observational ...

The application of dual stack approach in the implementation of IPv6 presents several advantages over the traditional methods and techniques. Dual stack approach refers to the techniques of full replication of all the stages in the protocol stack ranging from application layer to the network layer. In most cases, complete duplication is attained through by running both TCP/IP and OSI protocols on the same system (Chakraborty, Nitul and Biradar 89). It is imperative to note that the same concept can be employed to assist in the introduction of IPv6 in a network system. In the context of IPv6 introduction ...

Religion has an enormous influence on any given society. Religion has been widely praised for promoting prosocial behaviors among individuals in society(Moore, 2015). Psychologists as well have acknowledged the benefits religion has to our lives such as reducing the rates of depression. In Sociology as well, religion has been long recognized for its effect of promoting prosocial attitudes and behaviors. It does this by regulating behavior and coming up with norms and values that integrate people into the society. Emile Durkheim proposed that religion has a prosocial influence of decreasing suicide via establishing values and norms by which ...

Abstract

This section provides a detailed analysis of the regulatory environment of the Canadian Banking sector, and the risks inherent to the financial sector. The 2007/08 global financial meltdown caught many financial institutions in developed markets unawares. The crisis led to the liquidation of many banking institutions, especially in the USA and other parts of Europe. However, the Canadian banking system remained resilient to the negative shocks, as no single bank in the country was bailed out or experienced risks of failure. The resilience of the Canadian banking sector portrayed the strength of its regulatory environment. Although the crisis did ...

Despite the redistributive powers granted to courts in matters related to divorce, there is a limited statutory regime that offers adequate governance of financial consequences on cases. Therefore, the majority agrees that the current form of constructive trust in family affairs remains unsatisfactory. In this regard, the constructive trust in family law is associated with risk of injustice posed by the litigants. Tension between legal objectives arises when the courts attempt to combine various principles of law to provide justice. Also, a huge amount of legal waste is generated when judicial manipulation is applied to ensure fairness in justice ...

Reducing Bottlenecks, a case study of Starbucks

A supply chain is determined by bottlenecks. It is only after recognizing this fact that cash flow can be increased. In a supply chain, a bottle neck implies to resources that require the longest operations time of the supply for particular demand. Insufficiency and inventory increase are some of the associated with bottleneck. Insufficient materials and excess inventory do not occur always because of inconsistent fluctuations ( Bhalla, 2011). Bottlenecks determine the supply chain’s throughput. An improvement in the capacity of a supply chain’s bottleneck will increase in throughput.

Introduction

Resistivity is a parameter which defines the resistance of a metal to the flow of electric current per unit volume of the metal (Jones, n.d.). The resistivity exhibited by a metal is dependent on three physical properties; the cross-sectional area, length, and the nature of the material (A´ ngel & Tirado-Miranda, 2009). The value of resistivity dictates the conductivity of a metal, high resistivity is associated with low electrical conductivity while low resistivity means that the metal is a good conductor (The Physics Hypertext Book, n.d.). Therefore, it can be concluded that low resistivity allows for increased movements of electrons within the metal while high ...

Abstract

The seawater forms 97% of water of the world, and the icecaps account for 2%. The portion of water available for human consumption is barely 0.5% and that also in aquifers. The widening gap between availability and requirement of potable water especially in the Gulf countries has necessitated newer methods and technologies for production of water suitable for human consumption. This situation in the Gulf region has developed due to non- availability of surface water, high growth of population and urbanization, and water depletion.
