Case Project—Statement of Work
Taylor’s Professional Services (TPS)
eCommerce Web Site

System Description

Taylor’s Professional Services is a technical and engineering staffing service. When a TPS client company determines that it will need a temporary professional or scientific employee, it issues a staffing request against the contract it previously negotiated with TPS.
TPS wants to provide a web site so that their clients can complete a staffing request over the internet. In addition, TPS wants to provide their clients with a list of potential candidates based on experience, education, salary, and location. A client will be able to select up to three potential staff members along with the location of work, type of work, and salary and submit the request to the contract manager. Once a client issues a staffing request, the system shall provide an automated response stating that the contract manager will validate their request within 24 hours of receipt.
Once a staffing request has been issued, the client will be able to log into the site and search for a staff request by number. The staff request query will result in a page that contains all staff request information along with a field that states whether the staff request is valid, invalid, unable to fill, or filled.
In addition, TPS staff members should be able update their resumes and picture through the web site.
The two areas of the website will be partitioned so that only clients with valid contract numbers and password are able to enter the client area and staff members with only valid employee numbers and password will be able to enter the staff area. Only the contract manager has full access to both locations.

C Programming

There are two parts.
1. Write code for a function that receives two parameters (a,and b) by value and has two more parameters (c and d) by reference. All parameters are double.
The function works by assigning c to (a/b) and assigning d to (a*b).
From main, use scanf to get two numbers, then call the function, and then display both returned values to the output in a printf statement.
2. After part 1 is completed, write code to get 20 integer numbers from the user. The code then displays how many of those numbers are above the numbers average. To get proper credit you must follow these steps:
a. write a for loop to fill the array with numbers from the user. Use a pointer
b. use an index to pass through all array elements to calculate the average in another loop.
c. write a function, then pass the array, its size, and the average to the function. The function returns the count of the number of elements that are above the average.

Assignment 1: Word Processing Overview

Assignment 1: Word Processing Overview
Assignment 1 is designed to have you explore how to use word processing to format a multi-
page document complete with headers and/or footers, page numbers, line spacing, etc.
If you require assistance to do this assignment, be sure to see one of the TA/GAs or the instructor
during their office hours. You may also post questions to the class-wide open discussion forum in
Blackboard–just don’t attach or post any solutions to your problem as any posts made there will be
seen by everyone in the class. Posting to such forums is a good idea for the following reasons:
Very often more than one person has the same or similar question.
Often others in the class will reply/post with additional questions.
Also the instructor, as well as any of the TA/GAs, can respond to those questions.
Finally, it is always best to ask questions than not.
Task
Word Processing Program Requirement
You are to format a word processing document that is created using Microsoft Word (i.e. it will
have a .doc or .docx extension).
N.B. You must use Microsoft Office – Word for this assignment. You may obtain your free
copy of Microsoft Office by downloading the install program from the Office 365 portal.
The instructions for this assignment are using Microsoft Word 2016 version. However,
other versions of Microsoft Word are similar.
Save your file as: WP Assignment 1 YourFirstName YourLastName (i.e. File tab/Save As)
Overall Requirements
Your document must be set to use a Letter page (8.5″x11″). Although this is the default under
most circumstances, you can verify this by:
MS Word 2016:
o Click the Layout tab at the top of the window.
o Within the Page Setup group, click the Size icon.
o When the pop-up menu appears, ensure that Letter is selected.
Your document must have the following margins set:
The left and right margins must be 1.25 inches.
The top and bottom margins must be 1.25 inches.

To set margins:
MS Word 2016:
o Click the Layout tab at the top of the window.
o Within the Page Setup group, click the Margins icon.
o Choose Custom Margins… and set margins as required.
 NOTE: 1 inch is 2.54 cm –if centimetres appears instead of inches.
N.B. You may see centimetres because your “country settings” in your operating system are
set to Canada and Canada uses the metric system by default. It is possible to override this,
but, it is not necessary for this course.
To set the Line and Paragraph Spacing (i.e. spacing between lines of text), do the following:

speech writing tips

1. A clear and appropriate organizational structure must be used – The Guide for Good Transitions document on Blackboard is a great resource.
2. Preparation outline MUST be submitted at the same time as the video submission. – Failure to submit a full and complete preparation outline in the format described on Blackboard will result in a 20% penalty on the ENTIRE speech grade (i.e., TWO FULL LETTER GRADES). – The Formatting Outlines for Speeches handout on Blackboard shows the exact format.
3. At least FOUR legitimate, credible outside sources must be used and CITED ORALLY in the speech – The Source Citations Guide document on Blackboard is a great resource for figuring out how to cite sources orally – Place these in an APA-formatted list of References at the end of the preparation outline. The APA Style Guide document on Blackboard is a great resource for figuring out how to format References.
4. DO have a clear introduction and conclusion. DO establish the significance and relevance of what you are presenting. – Why should the audience listen to you? – What’s in it for us? DO use organizational tools like previews, transitions, and summaries. DO cite sources to support your claims. DO “dress for the speech”
5. Orally citing sources requires full information on a first citation: A. Who is being quoted or paraphrased? B. What are their credentials? C. From what specific publication or source is the information taken? D. What date was the information generated, published, or last updated? These details should come BEFORE the information you want to share from the source EXCEPT in the case of an attention-getting device (AGD)—then it should be embedded. Introducing sources should be done purposefully. This means using appropriate language based on the reason you introduce the source material. “According to…” is probably the most OVERUSED and LEAST MEANINGFUL way to introduce a source into your speech. The role the testimony is intended to play in your discussion is not clear. This is okay when that role is obvious AND you have not said, “According to…” too often. Otherwise, try to avoid this worn out phrase. Some alternatives* are: A, B, confirms in C, D, that blah, blah, blah… A, B, reports in C, D, that blah, blah, blah…. A, B, notes in C, D, that blah, blah, blah… A, B, explains in C, D, that blah, blah, blah… A, B, reveals in C, D, that blah, blah, blah… A, B, elaborates in C, D, that blah, blah, blah…. A, B, disagrees in C, D, where he/she argues/states/asserts/claims blah, blah… On the contrary, A, B, informs us in C, D, that blah, blah, blah… A, B, clarifies this point in C, D, by explaining blah, blah, blah…. In C D, A B suggests blah, blah, blah… In subsequent citations, you simply can say something like “The previously mentioned [INSERT SOURCE]…” OR “The aforementioned [INSERT SOURCE]…” or any other truncated citation that reminds us clearly of the earlier full citation. * A, B, C, D, reference the components in the list at the top of the page. Sample First Citations 1. Citing information from an expert who is quoted in a periodical: Dr. Joseph Lightfeather, director or the Chronobiology Research Institute at Harvard University, reveals in the May, 15, 2017, edition of Time that 2-4 p.m. are our least creative hours of the day. 2. Staff written information in an article in a periodical: Time magazine of May 15, 2017, confirms that 2-4 p.m. are our least creative hours of the day. 3. Book: However, MIT Biochronologist, Dr. Mary Wainwright suggests in her newly published book Body Beats that creative hours vary depending on each person’s unique body timer. OR However, Dr. Mary Wainright, a Biochronologist at MIT, suggests in her newly published book Body Beats, that creative hours vary depending on each person’s unique body timer. 4. Journal Article: Drs. Joseph Lightfeather and Mary Wainright found in their study of body rhythms— published in the Spring 2017 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association that our hours of creativity may vary somewhat from person to person, but most people are least creative between the afternoon hours of 2-4 p.m. 5. Web source: The official silly putty website, sillyputty.com (last updated in March 2015), reveals that silly putty acts both as a liquid and as a solid. 6. Interview: In a June 8, 2017, telephone conversation with peter Hodgson, Jr.—son of the man who popularized silly putty in the 1950s—he told me that his Dad built his business with a $120 loan from a friend, because the banks thought his idea was…well…s
