The greatest value in a course such as Wireless Devices and Applications (WDA) comes from applying the concepts, theories, applications, and devices explored during class. This term project gives you an opportunity to select a topic that interests you and apply concepts from readings, exercises, current devices, and class discussions. The Course Project allows you to apply the tools from the course to assess a problem, diagnose its sources, and recommend a course of action. In developing the project, assume that your manager has requested a thorough analysis and a recommended course of action for a problem that could be resolved by a wireless application. Some examples are a deployment plan for WDAs, a recommendation for specific mobile wireless solutions, or a marketing plan for a new mobile application. Think of yourself as a consultant. Tackle a WDA problem in a specific organization of interest to you. Provide a detailed analysis of the causes of the problem or issue. Be sure the causes you identify relate directly. You must effectively apply course material and integrate findings from your review of the literature in your analysis. Discuss the concepts, ideas, and insights that are most valuable in helping you make sense of your project. This is not a course in applied common sense, so support your analysis with reference to appropriate research. You must use no less than eight resources outside your textbook. Cite all sources. Recommendations & Implementation Explore the solution(s) that could be appropriate to solve the identified problem or issue. Be sure the solution(s) is/are logical based on your analysis and that the solution(s) would effectively treat the problem, not the symptoms. Also, discuss the anticipated outcomes (both positive and negative) of implementing each of the possible solution(s) you identified. Describe exactly what should be done and how it should be done, including by whom, with whom, and in what sequence. In other words, be specific about your recommended solution and implementation.

The function of the news is to inform audience social, political and economic issues that affect their lives. Bad and good news are brought to audience by authors who believe that their selected information will appeal to the interest of readers, hence able to sell. The statement that the media nowadays focus too much on bad news is, in my opinion, an impetuous comment. Bad news tend to occupy and last longer in the readers’ memories because it creates a kind of dramatic appeal that is more attractive to the read from than that of good news. Human beings, though sometimes complain about the negativity of the news, have a tendency to commandeer negative and dramatic news and share it.

In order words, if we see two articles in a Daily Telegraph with one about ‘Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her ‘eighty- something’-ieth birthday’ and other about ‘A hike in income tax’, the likelihood of us reading the latter is higher. Hence, bad news, in particularly those the affect our daily decision’ sell better. However, judging on the popularity of the news based on its negativity does not present a full picture. One’s judgment on the quality of the news is also influenced on the dramatic level of its content and its resonance to his or her situation.

There might be a slight distortion in the amount of bad news that occupy newspaper, however ‘too much’ would embellish it. In fact, it is our tendency to read ‘too much’ bad news that leads to such assumption. Stories in books and novels inevitably have mellow and sorrowful notes. For example while, lei readers might accuse William Golding’s novel ‘Lord of the flies’ a dark work of criticism, serious readers might praise it for delving into human’s nature hence clarifying the causes the imperfection in the society. A story with negative connotation can have underlying purpose such as that of Golding, which is to encourage reader to examine their behavior and makes changes to their perception of the world.

According to Canfield’s ‘Laws of attraction’, our interpretation and treatment of something determines what we gain from it. The same applies to our view of , supposedly, ‘bad’ news. While a buyer of Facebook’s stocks might consider the withdrawal of GM a bad news, the management of Google consider it as a good news. In a free market, readers as powerful stakeholder should be able to dictate what type of news they want to be sold in the market by voicing their opinion or casting economic votes (by buying that work or not).
