Define organization with any two characteristics.

-

 Mooney and Railey -"Organization is the form of every human association for the attainment of a common purpose.

Chester Bernard - "An organization is a system of consciously coordinated activities of two or more than two people."

Ricky W. Griffin "Organization is a group of people working together in structured and coordinated fashion to achieve a set of goals."

W. J. Duncan -"It is a collection of interacting and interdependent individuals who work towards common goals and whose relationships are determined according to a certain nature." Keith Davis -"Organization may be defined as a group of individuals, large or small, that is cooperating under the direction of executive leadership in accomplishment of the certain common object.

Jerald Greenberg "Organization is a structured social system consisting of groups and individuals working together to meet some agreed-upon objectives.

" Louis A. Allen- "Organization is the process of identifying and grouping the work to be performed, defining and delegating responsibility and authority, and establishing relationships for the purpose of enabling people to work most effectively together in accomplishing objectives.

" Robbins, Coulter, and Vohra "An organization has three characteristics: a distinctive purpose, composed of people, and a deliberate structure. Many of today's organizations are more open, flexible, and responsive to changes than organizations once were."


Characteristics of Organization


Association of people: An organization is a social unit created by the association of two or more people having common goals to attain. They develop social relationships in the workplace while working together to achieve their common goals. The success or failure of an organization depends on their mutual understanding, co-operation and support.

Common goals: An organization is consciously created to attain the common goals of people associated with it. Organizations may have different goals like making a profit, wealth maximizing, creating organizational value, etc. Such common goals integrate all the members together and encourage them to demonstrate acceptable behavior in a group. Only the people having similar or common goals join together in an organization.

Discuss classification or taxonomy of virtualization at different levels.

Taxonomy of virtualization Virtualization is mainly used to emulate the execution environment, storage, and networks. The execution environment is classified into two: – Process-level – implemented on top of an existing operating system.  – System-level – implemented directly on hardware and does not or minimum requirement of the existing operating system. OR,  Virtualization covers a wide range of emulation techniques that are applied to different areas of computing. A classification of these techniques helps us better understand their characteristics and use  V irtualization is mainly used to emulate  ● Execution Environments: To provide support for the execution of the programs eg. OS, and Application.  ○ Process Level: Implemented on top of an existing OS that has full control of the hardware  ○ System Level: Implemented directly on Hardware and do not require support from existing OS.  ● Storage: Storage vi...

What is RMI? Discuss stub and skeleton. Explain its role in creating distributed applications.

-
 The RMI (Remote Method Invocation) is an API that provides a mechanism to create distributed application in java. The RMI allows an object to invoke methods on an object running in another JVM. The RMI provides remote communication between the applications using two objects stub and skeleton. RMI applications often comprise two separate programs, a server and a client. A typical server program creates some remote objects, makes references to these objects accessible, and waits for clients to invoke methods on these objects. A typical client program obtains a remote reference to one or more remote objects on a server and then invokes methods on them.  RMI provides the mechanism by which the server and the client communicate and pass information back and forth. A primary goal for the RMI designers was to allow programmers to develop distributed Java programs with the same syntax and semantics used for non-distributed programs. To do this, they had to carefully map how Java clas...

Suppose that a data warehouse consists of the three dimensions time, doctor, and patient, and the two measures count and charge, where a charge is the fee that a doctor charges a patient for a visit. a) Draw a schema diagram for the above data warehouse using one of the schemas. [star, snowflake, fact constellation] b) Starting with the base cuboid [day, doctor, patient], what specific OLAP operations should be performed in order to list the total fee collected by each doctor in 2004? c) To obtain the same list, write an SQL query assuming the data are stored in a relational database with the schema fee (day, month, year, doctor, hospital, patient, count, charge)

Solution: a) Star Schema is shown in the figure below: b) First, we should use the roll-up operation to get the year 2004(rolling-up from the day then month to a year). After getting that, we need to use the slice operation to select (2004). Second, we should use roll-up operation again to get all patients. Then, we need to use the slice operation to select (all). Finally, we get a list of the total fee collected by each doctor in 2004. So, 1. roll up from day to month to year 2. slice for year = “2004” 3. roll up on patient from the individual patient to all 4. slice for patient = “all” 5. get the list of the total fees collected by each doctor in 2004 c) Select doctor, Sum(charge) From fee Where year = 2004 Group by doctor
