Discuss key focus areas of maturity levels in detail.

-

 Key focus areas: Key focus areas (KFA) indicate the areas that need to be focused on by an organization and are a set of related activities when performed collectively, help to achieve a particular level of maturity. KFA is defined from level 3(Planned) onwards, as this is the stage from where the e-governance effort is systematically attempted.


Planned:

  • Define a quantifiable vision for the e-governance exercise.

  • Conduct a needs assessment survey in view of objectives covering the following areas:-

          - Survey of requirements both within and outside the organization.

          - Analyze the requirement to identify priority areas for initiating e-governance exercises.

          - Assess the extent of e-readiness for identified areas and requirements to achieve the desired level of e-readiness.

  •  Prepare an extensive plan on e-governance that includes the following areas:-

            -  Define objectives and goals for the e-governance exercise.

            -  design policies and strategies for implanting e-governance. 

            -  Decomposes the e-government exercise into various activities.

           -  Project the resources requirements in terms of time, money, and manpower.

            - Define implementation methodology.

           -  Identify risk factors and purposes risk mitigation plan.

          -  Define the expected impact and propose an impact assessment methodology.

          -  Prepare all the necessary documentation including vision and scope document for e-governance, need assessment survey document, policy guidelines, action plan, etc.


Realized


  • Arrange for resources required to Implement the e-governance initiatives.
  • Develop a high-level awareness and commitment among decision-makers, stakeholders, and users to initiate and carry forward the e-governance objectives.
  • Select vendors for outsourced activities and formalize terms and conditions.
  •  Set up management committees with holders for executing and monitoring the e-governance objectives. 
  • conduct a detailed study and review of the existing business process in view of e-governance objectives.
  • . Acquire, design, develop, test, and deploy e-governance services with the following issues in mind:-

- Address information needs of the common man in local language with easy-to-use interfaces.

- Ensures interoperability in terms of inter-connectivity, data integration, and information access.

- use open standards.

- Ensure easy accessibility to information.

- Provide efficient data communication.

- Build scalable architecture.

- Collect, compile, validate and update data.

  •  Conduct an impact analysis to access the effectiveness of service delivery.



Institutionalized

  • Address the design reality gaps, if any by iterating between planning and realization phases.
  • Evolve a mechanism to make e-governance an effortless exercise, so that the entire system develops an ability to evolve and scale up with time and new requirements.

Suppose that a data warehouse for Big-University consists of the following four dimensions: student, course, semester, and instructor, and two measures count and avg_grade. When at the lowest conceptual level (e.g., for a given student, course, semester, and instructor combination), the avg_grade measure stores the actual course grade of the student. At higher conceptual levels, avg_grade stores the average grade for the given combination. a) Draw a snowflake schema diagram for the data warehouse. b) Starting with the base cuboid [student, course, semester, instructor], what specific OLAP operations (e.g., roll-up from semester to year) should one perform in order to list the average grade of CS courses for each BigUniversity student. c) If each dimension has five levels (including all), such as “student < major < status < university < all”, how many cuboids will this cube contain (including the base and apex cuboids)?

a) A Snowflake Shema is shown in figure below: b) The specific OLAP operations to be performed: 1. Roll-up on course from course_id to department. 2. Roll-up on a student from student_id to university. 3. Dice on course, student with department ="CS" and university = "biguniversity" 4. Drill-down on a student from the university to student_name. c) N = 4 dimensions The cube will contain 54 = 625 cuboids.

Suppose that a data warehouse consists of the four dimensions; date, spectator, location, and game, and the two measures, count and charge, where charge is the fee that a spectator pays when watching a game on a given date. Spectators may be students, adults, or seniors, with each category having its own charge rate. a) Draw a star schema diagram for the data b) Starting with the base cuboid [date; spectator; location; game], what specific OLAP operations should perform in order to list the total charge paid by student spectators at GM Place in 2004?

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...
