Modify your Java application so that it is an easy-to-use GUI application where all of the interaction is performed on one screen. You will now take the individual components and translate them to a single interactive GUI interface using the following GUI components, container, the event listeners, and event sub classes to enhance your application as a more GUI-appropriate interface:

• GUI components
• Container
• Event listeners
• Event subclasses (at least 3–4 utilized)
  • ActionEvent
  • ItemEvent
  • FocusEvent
  • KeyEvent
  • MouseEvent
  • WindowEvent
• ActionPerformed Method

Part 2

For this assignment, you are being asked to make sure you are exception handling by verifying that all of the customer-entered information is valid before the order is submitted to ensure order accuracy.

The customer information that the customer must now enter that should be validated includes the following:

• Entered user name (must fill in a name)
• Entered at least one sub to order
• Selected all three attributes for sub (such as bread type, sub type, and sub size)
• Entered delivery address that includes street, city, state, and zip code
• Entered telephone number xxx-xxx-xxxx

In this assignment, you are adding in error handling to make sure the customer is filling in all of the required information.

To accomplish this task, you will be utilizing the following Java classes:

• Methods in the character class and StringBuilder class to validate and manipulate characters in a string
• Try… Catch for the exception handling of all input fields

3. Format your assignment according to the following formattin

In this one- to two-page (250-500 word) paper, you will discuss each of the different components of an information system, and then explain how you can use the five-component model to guide your learning and thinking about information systems.

Action research methodology can provide valuable assessment information regarding the outcome of your research. The major purpose of this assignment is to begin to identify significant themes that are becoming evident in the implementation of your action research project and your data collection. The key is to begin to discover trends in your data without making premature decisions; however minor adjustments can be made next week. Action research provides correlative and data driven information that can be used to make positive changes in the teaching and learning environment (Buczynski & Hansen, 2014); Mills, 2014). Additionally, thinking about the key stakeholders and their role in your research is important as well. In summary, this assignment is a preliminary interpretation of the various data obtained thus far. Without committing to initial assumptions, you are to begin to identify the key patterns that are emerging.

To prepare for this assignment, view the Silva (2011) video, Action Research @ a Glance. Next, construct your written assignment to meet the content and written communication expectations stated below.

Content Expectations

• Video Reflection (2 Points): In at least one paragraph, reflect on the knowledge you gained or that was reinforced for you by watching the Silva (2011) video.
• Research Question (2 Points): Analyze to what extent your research question(s) is still answerable or worth answering and how you might defend that your research question(s) is/are worth answering.
• Data Collection (3 Points): Justify whether your data collection techniques will provide the kind of data you need to address your questions and whether you are effectively filtering out data that you do not need.

Written Communication Expectations

• Page Requirement (.5 points): Two pages, not including title and references pages.
• APA Formatting (.5 points): Use APA formatting consistently throughout the assignment.
• Syntax and Mechanics (.5 points): Display meticulous comprehension and organization of syntax and mechanics, such as spelling and grammar.
• Source Requirement (.5 points): Include at least two scholarly sources providing compelling evidence to support ideas. All sources on the references page need to be used and cited correctly within the body of the assignment.

ndia as an economic force? It sounds odd to consider this fact based upon the India of 20 years ago, when people were fleeing to escape India’s economic woes. However, today India as a modern economic power is a reality. One sign of this is that many jobs in the West, especially in the high-tech fields, are being outsourced to India. Submit  a 1-2 page paper that discusses the impact of India’s economy on the United States and other current world economic powers using numbers and statistics.

All human beings encounter pain and suffering in life. This can present some difficult questions to organized religions.

 

On some level, all religions answer fundamental questions of human existence, including, “why are we here?” Pain and suffering complicate these basic questions of human existence, whether the religion is monotheistic, polytheistic, or atheistic.

 

Some people endure much more pain and suffering than others. Why is this so? What is the origin of suffering? Is evil external or internal? Does it have any meaning? How should we respond to it?

 

Even more difficult is the problem of moral evil: some people deliberately cause other people to suffer. Why? If there is meaning in the universe, and especially if the universe is ruled by a beneficent deity, how can this be?

 

Write an essay of 1,000 words that examines the basic positions of each of the five religious traditions considering these human questions

 

In your essay, address the following questions:

 

• How does each religion respond to the problems of evil and suffering?
• How are those responses similar?
• In what ways do the responses differ?
• What factors account for these differences?

Which way of addressing evil is the most similar to your own? What role does reason play in your personal understanding of evil? How does that overlap or contradict with the major religions’ uses of reason in explaining evil?

• Assess the importance of the Ries and Trout’s Product Ladder as a target marketing device within the health care industry. Provide a rationale for your response.

Network Security Cryptography Assignment

This problem uses a real world example of a symmetric cipher from an old US Special Forces manual. Use the very simple example of the cipher from he class lecture to help you answer this assignment.

a) Using the two keys (memory words) cartographic and network security, encrypt the following message:

Be at the third pillar from the left outside of the lyceum theater tonight at seven. If you are distrustful, bring two friends.

Make reasonable assumptions about how to treat redundant letters and excess letters in the memory words and how to treat spaces and punctuation. Indicate what your assumptions are.

b) De crypt the ciphertext. Show your work.

c) Comment on when it would be appropriate to use this technique and what its advantages are.
