Business strategy and consumer insights

Business strategy and consumer insights Challenge 1: Digital revolution and business models Day (2011) described business models as tools that should showcase the methods an organisation can employ to can create value for customers and how the organisation is then...

The Internet of Things (IoT)

The Internet of Things (IoT) The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of devices, or things, connected to the Internet that can communicate their status, respond to events or even act autonomously. The IoT devices discussed in this thesis consist of sensors and...

Properties of Domestic Abuse

Properties of Domestic Abuse There are several terms used to describe relationships in the area of domestic abuse, and some terms are used interchangeably in standard conversation. In this work the following definitions from Black et al. and theWorld Health...

Industry Trade Associations

Introduction Industry trade associations are an underdeveloped but evolving research topic for both social and business historians. Bradley (1965), and Aldrich and Staber (1988) were instrumental in their groundbreaking research to identify trade association form,...

The Social Factors

The Social Factors Despite our growing environmental consciousness, private vehicle use is on the rise. In 2009, the transportation sector was the second largest source of green house gas emissions, accounting for 28% of Canada’s total 690 mega tonnes of carbon...

Right Wing Media and Agenda 21

Right Wing Media and Agenda 21 Many journalistic sources regularly release stories about the Agenda 21 conspiracy theory with a variety of perspectives. This ranges from discussing the situation factually with a neutral ideological stance, to left-of-center media...

Elites and Conspiracy Theories

Elites and Conspiracy Theories Elites are often the enemy in conspiracy theories, yet history and current events are awash with elite actors espousing conspiracy theories to explain social events. Many infamous leaders such as Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler, used...

NETWORK DISCOVERY

NETWORK DISCOVERY When a generator stops working or a line becomes faulty, the topology of the network changes. Pathways between sources  and loads may no longer be viable. There is no sure way of knowing what components will remain viable because anything in  an...

Bilingual Intervention In Bilingual Children With ASD

Bilingual Intervention In Bilingual Children With ASD Research on language of intervention in bilingual children with ASD is limited. There is a lack of research to support the practice of limiting the language exposure to only one language in bilingual children with...

Bilingualism

Bilingualism When deciding what language of intervention to use when working with bilingual children with ASD, it is crucial to first understand the factors that affect bilingual language development. A child’s language development and acquisition reflects a...

Frequency Chirp and its Measurement

Since the ultimate goal is to achieve customized two dimensional sweeping in the I-v plan, eventually frequency chirp must be measured and calibrated. In this post, the causes and consequences of frequency chirp are discussed, as well as different methods to measure...

Coupled wave theory

For wave propagating in periodic structures made of semiconductor material, the build-in grating or corrugation induces dielectric or refractive index perturbation, and such perturbation results in an interaction between the forward and backward propagating waves....

Numerical Simulation of DFB laser

Distributed feedback (DFB) laser is the most widely used light source in optical communication systems. A DFB laser is a laser where the whole resonator consists of a periodic structure, which acts as a distributed reflector in the wavelength range of laser emission,...

Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry

The OFDR system provides information on the local characteristic of fiber network with high resolution and moderate range. It measures the backscatter signal during the entire measurement span as a function of frequency in a complex fashion, and then...

Decoupling the FM/AM signal

In order to confirm the amplitude and frequency of a laser has been modulated independently, we need a detection method that is capable of decoupling these two signals. The frequency variation caused by carrier induced effect is usually very small. For frequency chirp...

Modulation resulted frequency chirp in DFB laser

The easiest way is to change the current running through the laser diode, which is also called direct modulation. More current leads to more optical gain, and more gain yields more output intensity from the laser diode. The problem with directly modulation is that...

Classification of social unrest

Classification of social unrest Social unrests can be classified in terms of causes, effects and forms of emergence. John E Archer in his book “Social Unrest and popular protest in England” introduced an overall classification for causes of social unrests:...

Modulation resulted mode hopping

In an uncoated, pure Bragg grating structure, two strongest reflection peaks present at each side of forbidden band . When the Bragg grating structure is integrated to a laser diode to form a distributed feedback (DFB) laser, these two reflection peaks will be the two...

Pioneers of social unrest research

Pioneers of social unrest research The study of social unrests in modern context was initiated by 1960s. Before that, just a few historians had shown any inclination to follow the issue of civil disorder and social unrests. Frank Ongley Darvall is an exception. As a...

Semiconductor laser diodes

Semiconductor laser diodes have unparalleled broad range of application, including optical data transmission and storage , metrology , spectroscopy , material processing , and various kinds of medical treatments . They are made of semiconductor material that can...
