One was ‘buy and hold’ (where you bought FD for three months) the second was ‘trading’ (where you traded different FD on daily basis). On both we had to write reports of what methods – approaches we used on trading and choosing by also writing blog about it.

Students are expected to interact with their group colleagues to develop a database in three steps: PART A: Conceptual Data Model (CDM); PART B: Logical Data Model (LDM); PART C: Physical Data Model (PDM). The onus is on each group to develop their own style of Project Logbook but learning should be applied from the IS Project Management. Every meeting must be recorded by reports and attached to main documents.

Part 1 of the CA will present the information system network diagram of enterprise in financial sector (National Bank). With theory explanation how to make one and what are the parts of it and vulnerabilities that certain parts of the network could poses in regards to hardware, software (operating system), people, organisation and environment. For real presentation network diagrams of headquarters, branches and international office will be produced with real inventory. Part 2 of CA will hold the ‘Security Policy Framework Document’ of the previous described network and more detailed analysis of exposures and risk regarding the system network with audit, contingency plan and disaster recovery plan (Griffin, 2015).

As there is growing demand of project work on global levels international teams have to have multi-skill competencies not just knowledge about technical skills for developing information systems. They have to manage different communication skills, speak foreign languages, have knowhow of customs and cultures, and be familiar working at different working hours as projects members are living in different time-zones, with knowing a lot of “Information Communication Technology (ICT)” tools to collaborate with teams. Through this paper was done academic and research paper literature review on topics in title to prove the statement or omitted it in conclusion for a class assignment of Information system project management.

Recently rising levels of youth unemployment across the European Union (EU) and extreme differenc... more Recently rising levels of youth unemployment across the European Union (EU) and extreme differences in youth unemployment levels among EU member states are problems that have led to concerns about social cohesion and the future of the European economy. While overall levels of unemployment rose considerably as a result of the economic recession that began in 2008, young people aged between 15 and 24 were disproportionately affected by the downturn. Since the start of the recession, EU’s youth population has fallen victim to the “last hired, first fired” pattern of temporary employment followed by long-term unemployment. The problem of youth unemployment today has long-term ripple effects into the future, as evidence suggests that the longer period of time a person spends unemployed as a youth, the more likely the person will spend unemployed as an adult, and the lower potential wages for that person when employed (ILO, 2012). A wide range of policy interventions have addressed the topic of youth unemployment in the EU and attempted to stop or reverse the current situation, yet the problem is far from solved. After analysing the current situation and policies in place, we argue that there is a strong case to support further policy intervention in order to navigate the remainder of the recession and build a more stable future for both the European and global economies.

Privatization as a process of transferring enterprise ownership from the state to private individ... more Privatization as a process of transferring enterprise ownership from the state to private individuals in the transition economies was expected to have a positive effect on the performance of firms and the economy overall. This effect seems to be somewhat mitigated when domestic, rather than foreign investors take over firms. The leading explanation for the limited, or nonexistent positive performance effect of privatization to domestic owners appears to be the stripping of enterprise assets by managers, and the subsequent disappearance of otherwise well-performing enterprises.
The conditions enabling asset-stripping had been examined on two occasions. The Hoff-Stiglitz model, as well as the Campos and Giovannoni model, used different approaches in an attempt to identify underlying causes for asset stripping.

Pozornost bo namenjena potencialnim skritim podatkom (metapodatki), ki jih ti dokumenti nosijo in možna tveganja, ki jih ti podatki prinesejo uporabniku in njegovim avtorjem. Ker je danes poslovanje zelo digitalizirano je to zelo pomembna tematika za celotno organizacijo in predvsem za uporabo finančno-računovodske forenzike, ki je tako ob pomoči računalniške forenzike lahko še bolj učinkovita. Naloga je razdeljena v štiri dele, pregled literature o računalniški forenziki za uporabo v finančno-računovodski forenziki, nadaljevanje z razumevanjem kaj metapodatki so, metapodatki po posameznih oblikah dokumentov, ki se uporabljajo v poslovanju in še zaključek z komentarjem.

Crowdfunding« katerim deležnikom je namenjena oziroma za kakšen namen se lahko uporabi. Predvsem bom poizkušal odgovoriti ali se predvsem uporablja za podporo različnih projektov in idej ali za zagon podjetniških idej ter s tem ustanavljanje novih podjetij. Ob tem bom posvečal pozornost tudi kateri deležniki se poslužujejo platforme (študentje, zaposleni, nezaposleni,...) in ali imajo že predhodne izkušnje v podjetništvu ter odkriti možnosti uporabe v marketingu. Pozornost bo posvečena tudi za kakšen namen se uporablja množično financiranje oziroma kateri sektorji se jih poslužujejo.

aplikacije, ki so spodbudile interakcijo med ljudmi (blog, wiki, socialna omrežja, spletne aplikacije, itd. ). Predvsem sposobnost, da zaganjajo programe v brskalnikih je bil velik korak naprej (O'Reilly, 2005). Z novimi zmogljivostmi so dobile možnost tudi multimedijske vsebine.

Tako se je začel razcvet video platform Youtube.com, Vimeo.com, Myspace.com in socialna omrežja FB, Twitter, … ki oba podpirata različne multimedijske vsebine ter Instagram,
Snapchat z foto – video vsebino, Soundcloud, iTunes, Jango,.. zajemajo audio format.

Vse to je vodilo k razvoju raznih vsebin, ki so postale na voljo preko teh medijev za izobraževanje dokler se niso pojavile odprte spletene učilnice - MOOC's (angl. Massive open
online courses), ki je platforma namenjena izobraževanju, podpirajo pa razna multimedijska orodja in tehnike, s katerimi posredujejo znanje tistemu, ki ga išče preko svetovnega spleta
brezplačno (Yuan & Powell, 2013). Za učilnice se uporabljajo razna orodja in tehnike za video, audio, predstavitve, foto montaže, itd.

V tej seminarski nalogi bova poizkušala zajeti glavne platforme, ki ponujajo možnost spletnega učenja opisala njihove glavne značilnosti vmesnikov in katera multimedijska orodja in tehnike uporabljajo za poučevanje svojih učencev.

Delovne procese sestavljajo trije pravilniki, ki se izvajajo na Fakulteti za informacijske študije v Novem mestu, in sicer: Pravilnik o anketiranju študentov, pravilnik o študentih s posebnim statusom ter pravilnik o izvajanju delovne prakse. Vse tri pravilnike bomo najprej opisali in nato izdelali tabelo aktivnosti in tabelo lastnosti (metodologija TAD) za vsak delovni proces. Pomagali si bomo s programskim orodjem iGrafx, kjer bomo izvedli modeliranje in simulacijo. Na podlagi rezultatov simulacije bomo ugotovili kako posamezna aktivnost vpliva na celoten proces ter podali predlog za izboljšavo le-te.
KLJUČNE BESEDE:
Delovni proces, modeliranje, simulacije, metodologija TAD, programsko orodje iGrafx.
