Europe’s Cathedral Architecture-Gothic Style of Cathedral Architecture

Week 6 Discussion Option B
“Europe’s Cathedral Architecture” Please respond to the following, using sources under the Explore heading as the basis of your response:

  • Identify the key functions of stained glass windows in the Gothic style in Europe’s cathedral architecture. Identify two (2) differences between the Romanesque and Gothic cathedral structures, and discuss which you prefer and the reasons why. Identify one (1) existing structure (the closer to your home the better) that is Romanesque or Gothic, and explain the features that support your identification.

Explore
Gothic Style of Cathedral Architecture

Welcome to the Week 6 DT class!   Now that we are at the mid-point of this term, it is time that I let you start developing your skills at reading the questions and creating an outline.  But, we will wait another 2 or 3 weeks before making you do it all on your own.  My instructions this week will be very brief.
You have 3 issues to address… 1) identify  the key functions of stained glass windows in Medieval architecture, 2) identify two (2) differences between Romanesque and Gothic cathedrals, discuss which type of structure you prefer, and say why you prefer those aspects, 3)  identify one (1) Romanesque or Gothic structure near where you live, and explain the features that support your identification.  Note the highlighted verbs for each issue.  These are the clues to how you should begin thinking about your response and how you will design and develop it.

Tool-centric Research: Environment-centric Research-Analyze the environmental security requirements and technologies 

Analytical Research Project :
Intrusion Detection and Intrusion Prevention
Paper Topic Selection
The purpose of this preliminary milestone is to provide your instructor the opportunity to confirm the appropriateness of your proposed topic, sufficiently early in the course to allow for topic revision if necessary. It will be helpful if you include, with your proposed paper topic, the sort of research you intend to do and any specific sources you may have already found or plan to use in researching your topic. Your instructor will provide feedback on the suitability of the proposed topic by the start of Session 5. Students who do not provide a proposed topic will be preparing their research papers “at risk;” i.e., they will run the risk of delivering a paper reflecting research that is not suitable for this course.
Analytical Research Project
The purpose of the Research Project is to develop an in-depth understanding of the intrusion detection and/or prevention technology and the way in which such technology is used to protect specific computing environments against specific threats. To arrive at this understanding, your project may choose to follow either one of two analytical approaches:
you should also do the following;
1. Analysis of a tool or technique including functional applicability and limitations
2. Analysis of environmental security requirements and technologies
Tool-centric Research:
Projects of the first type will focus on a specific tool, technique, or method used in intrusion detection or intrusion prevention. Choosing a topic for this type of project will mean selecting the tool you want to research and analyze and developing a research question or thesis statement that your research is intended to answer. The analysis for a tool-centric research project should emphasize the use and application of the tool, technique, or method rather than a simple explanation of its features. If you choose a product or tool with a broad set of capabilities, you may choose to provide an analysis of one or more aspects of the tool. The paper distills fundamental issues, focuses on one available solution, and provides a detailed analysis of both the functional applicability and the limitations of the available solution. In other words, you should explain in your paper the functional purposes and/or security goals the chosen tool is well-suited to address, and also things for which it is not a good choice. You are welcome to choose any type of IDS tool, including network-based, host-based, or wireless products.
Environment-centric Research:
The second type of project also looks at intrusion detection and prevention technologies, but adopts an organizational perspective by first defining and analyzing an operating environment, and then identifying and recommending appropriate IDS/IPS technologies. Choosing a topic for this type of project will mean describing a specific computing environment and any operational needs for safeguarding that environment. The analysis for an environment-centric research project should emphasize the threats faced by the organization and assess IDS/IPS technologies in the context of providing protection from those threats. This type of research project mimics the process many real-world organizations go through when selecting IDS/IPS tools (or other types of technologies), in which organizations first specify requirements and then evaluate alternatives to see what technologies best meet their requirements. You may choose to focus on a specific organization (like a company or agency) or on a class of organization (e.g., based on relative size, industry, business model, etc.). It is important that you be able to specify security requirements for the organization or operating environment that you choose for your project.

Scaling and Harvesting the Venture involves completion of the Entrepreneurship Project

Completion of Entrepreneurship Project
Stage 5: Scaling and Harvesting the Venture involves completion of the Entrepreneurship Project. Develop a formal mock exit strategy to include in your project. Think of how you would exit the company that has been such an integral part of your work life.
Compile Stages 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 into one document, which will be your final report on developing your company.  You can use all the work you’ve developed and acquired leading up to this point from your prior weeks. However, make sure you prepare a concise and well-organized and written document that addresses each of the topics: Conducting opportunity analysis, Developing the plan and setting up the company, Acquiring financial partners/sources of funding, Determining the resources required and implementing the plan, and Scaling and harvesting the venture.
Make sure to incorporate any edits/suggestions from the instructor.
· Your report should be 8-10 content pages, not including title page, abstract, or references.
· APA 6th format is required, typewritten in double-spaced format (Arial 12-point font or Times New Roman styles), page margins Top, Bottom, Left Side and Right Side = 1 inch, with reasonable accommodation being made for special situations and online submission variances. See template from Week 1.
· In your report, make certain that you include at least four (4) outside references

Turkey Questions

200 words
1.
Social security for retirees is paid through payroll taxes on the current workforce. However, because retirees are living longer and increasing in number, the inflow of payroll tax revenue from workers at some point will be insufficient to fund the outflow of social security payments. One solution to the problem would be to increase taxes on workers. Another solution would be to reduce retiree benefits and require workers to wait longer before they become eligible for social security benefits (the earliest eligibility is currently 62 years of age). If you were asked to solve the problem, what would you propose?
2.
also: Describe the differences between demand-side policy and supply-side policy. Which one do you prefer and why?
