What is the historical evolution of policy within the criminal justice system?

Monday, November 9th, 2009

What is the historical evolution of policy within the criminal justice system? How has the approach to policy within the criminal justice system changed over the last 50 years?

Huh?

What?

Policy on what?

This question is so general, it doesn’t ask anything.

About the only thing this question proves is that people are still using YA to get other people to do their homework.

What are some of the benefits of using a double-entry system in accounting?

Friday, November 6th, 2009

the accounting equation essentially represents an Excel
spreadsheet that is organized to collect business transactions. Given that we could use
such a spreadsheet to record all the transactions for any business, what are some of the
benefits of using a double-entry system (i.e. the debit-credit approach) for recording
accounting information?

According to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-entry_accounting
"In accountancy, the double-entry bookkeeping (or double-entry accounting) system is the basis of the standard system used by businesses and other organizations to record financial transactions. It was first described by the Italian mathematician Luca Pacioli, in his Summa de arithmetica, geometrica, proportioni et proportionalità (Venice, 1494). Its premise is that a business’s (or other organization’s) financial condition and results of operations are best recorded in accounts. Each account maintains a "history" of changes in monetary values about a particular aspect of the business.

This system is called double-entry because each transaction is recorded in at least two accounts. Each transaction results in at least one account being debited and at least one account being credited, with the total debits of the transaction equal to the total credits.

For example, if Business A sells an item to Business B and Business B pays Business A by cheque, the bookkeeper of the Business A would credit the account called "Sales" and debit the account called "Bank". Conversely, the bookkeeper of Business B would debit the account called "Purchases" and credit the account called "Bank".

Historically, debit entries have been recorded on the left hand side and credit values on the right hand side of a general ledger account. The ledger accounts are set up as T accounts so called because they resemble the letter T when the account is empty."

The idea is that an account is debited and then when the money comes in it is credited. Often the money doesn’t come in until later.

With the difference between the two totals you know how much money is out there and unaccounted for–which is the origin of that expression.

It is also harder to cover up missing funds or extra payments when you have a separate account for each. The differences are able to show if someone is trying to rob the company.

It also acts as a double check for the person doing the accounting; when the two totals don’t add up then they know there is a mistake. Remember this was invented back in the days before calculators never mind computers and spread sheets so accountants had to check and double check their math. The reason to continue it is to insure fewer mistakes and tradition. The extra checks that it provides is enough to keep the system in place.

I keep a double-entry system of books for my own accounts. The bank has their record and I have mine. When the two don’t agree then there is a missing charge which could mean a mistake, a bad check, a service charge or a case of identity theft. If you find a charge that you can’t account for then you can easily track it down because you have to have a one to one correspondence between the two sets of records.

An ANPR system takes two images of each passing car -one on the car’s approach and one as it departs.?

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Each image is 710 pixels wide and 300 pixels high. Each pixel is stored using one byte. On average, four cars pass per minute. If each uncompressed image is sent back to the control centre for processing, which option is closest to the average rate of data transfer?

so i’m thinking 8 images per minute (i.e. 4 cars @ 2 images/car). each image is 213000 pixels so that’s a total of 1704000 pixels or bytes.

well…now i’m out of numbers. just guessing for the 8 images in a minute the data transfer rate is 1.7gig bytes.

Good luck.

How to approach overseas filtratopn system buyers?

Monday, October 26th, 2009

My company sells water filtration system to end-users in Malaysia, and now they want to expand their business into overseas market. We would like to find some email contact of overseas direct distributors and imported companies on the internet then send out the promotional letters to them. Beside that, is there any way we can approach more overseas filtration system buyers via internet? Thank you !

Can you please provide the Data Sheet of the Water filtration system manufactured with Standards compliance and the pricing information
with your full contact particulars and a reference to the affiliated Trade Body in your region. Do you have a Website or want one developed?

can someone tell me what a systems approach is?

Can u make the answer as simple as possible and use an example to demonstrate? THX

Some problems or collection of ‘things’ can be represented as a system and that allows you to analyse manipulate and predict properties of that system. A system has certain characteristics.

(1) A system consists of a finite number of components and each component has a particular function.

(2) The components work and interact together.

(3) The system itself has a particular function.

(4) All of the components are required for the system to perform its function.

(5) Some components provide positive and negative feedback to others so that the system regulates itself.

Some systems can be described in terms of mathematics. Others require a verbal description. Some every-day examples:

Central heating system, a motor car, the human body. The concept is often extended into social and political structures. For example, the criminal justice system. Taking a system approach is to use and apply these system concepts. It has been used in mananging change as another example.

Explain in detail the various approaches that can be taken to determine the reliability of a system?

Explain in detail the various approaches that can be taken to determine the reliability of an electronic system prior to its manufacture.

The method used is to assign reliability to each component then calculate system reliability based on the components and operating conditions. The guidance used is MIL-HDBK-217(F) (see link below), which provides detailed guidance for MTBF calculations.
