Add a new check on the emp table to make sure that any new employee inserted has sex either \'M\' or \'F\'. Create a new table called highway, with columns: empid and salary, and insert only those employees into this new table whose salary is greater than $40000. Write an SQL query that would return the department name and the maximum salary of that department (of only Male employees, i.e. Female employees should not be included). Using the IN operator, write a SQL statement that would return the first name, last names and the department names of those in \'MEN CLOTHING\' or \'WOMAN CLOTHING Display only those department names, and average salaries (rounded to the nearest dollar) of only those departments whose average salaries are greater than $33000. Create a view called ernp_manager_deptname with the employee last name (upper cased), manager name (lowercased) and the department name (lowercased) of each employee. Grant only view and change rights to the columns fname, lname and ssn to everyone. Create an INDEX for the emp table called indSSN on the column ssn and salary. Drop the index and revoke the grant Assume that there exists another column in the emp table called datejoined (which contains the date when the employee joined the company). Write a SQL query that gives the first name, last name and the number of days employed in the company. Solution 1. ALTER TABLE emp ADD CHECK (sex=\'M\' OR sex=\'F\') 2.create table highpay(empid int,salary int) insert into highpay select empid,salary from emp where salary>40000 3.select d.deptname,max(salary) from emp as e,dept as d where e.deptno=d.deptno and e.sex=\'M\' group by d.deptname 4.select e.fname,e.lname,d.deptname from emp as e,dept as d where e.deptno=d.deptno and deptname IN (\'MEN CLOTHING\',\'WOMAN CLOTHING\') .

advantages and disadvantages of using centralized network management versus distributed network management explain Solution centralized network management : 1) Advantage: i) Centralized management is simpler to develop and maintain. ii) Single location to view events and alerts. iii) Single place to access network management applications and information. iv) Security is easier to maintain. 2) Disadvantages: i) It requires a huge amounts of information to travel back to a centralized network operations center (NOC). ii) Single is system is not redundant or fault tolerant. iii) As networks elements are added, may be difficult or expensive to scale system to handle load. iii) Having to query all devices from a single location. Distributed network management: 1) Advantages: i) Distribution of network management task. ii) Distribution of network monitoring throughout the network. iii) Not dependent on single system. 2) Disadvantages: i) Information gathering is more difficult and time consuming. ii) The list of managed devices managed by each client needs to be predetermined and manually configured. .

Advantages & Disadvantages of Server Applications in 150+ words Solution Advantages: 1. Updates: Updates and patches can be pushed easily on all client machine. 2. Centralized Control and Configuration: Any changes made to the system are centralized like db error or system settings. 3. Better than installing copy on every client machine. Integrity, resources and access of the data are controlled by dedicated servers. It makes difficult for an unauthorized program or person to damage the system. 4. Scalibility: We can manage and control number of clients and severs separately. 5. Back up and Recovery: As all the data is stored at one place on sever its easy to back up and recove data. 6. Accessibility: We can access the server from various platfroms. 7. Security: Servers have better control access and resources to ensure that only authorized clients can access or manipulate data and server-updates are administered effectively. 8. Performance: clients server model improves the performance of large applications in heavy usage environments by restricting the network traffic to performance tier traffic. 9. Easy maintenance: distribute the roles and responsibilities to several standalone computers, you can replace, repair, upgrade, or even move a server, while customers will not be affected by that change (or minimally affect). This independence of the changes is also known as encapsulation. Disadvantages: 1. Server Overloading: When there are a lot of simultaneous client request than server get severely overloaded. Traffic becomes congested. 2. We may need increased bandwidth for the reasom mentioned above so that our server can handle more number of requests simultaneously. .

Does any one have a paper on human resource practices in countries besides the U.S? Solution The paper first presents various approaches to the management and recruitment of employees in subsidiaries that the company has established in different countries.

Do you think Facebook should operate in China even if it means complying with the restrictions there? Solution Yes, Facebook can be allowed to operate in China, by complying with the restrictions that have been suggested by the government. Facebook is a social medium that has its presence all over the world. But a few countries have still posed a ban on the website since it has lead to occurances of cyber crimes and social crimes. The best part is that it is not the only cause. China being a most populous country, it will not be able to spend a lot of work force on solving the cyber crimes or social crimes that might arise out of the intervention of social media. Hence they have a stringent policy of allowing these websites as to put it simple, it will add on the existing problems of the society. The country also feels that it will divert the attention of the student community towards socializing, Asian countries are rich for their cultural values and ethical behaviours which they have a fear of loosing if they allow the social media to venture into their country. So it is always better to stick to the local government and comply the restrictions is order to atleast venture first, and conquer later. .

Do you think contingent gains should be disclosed in the financial statements? Defend your position. Solution Contingent gain or loss is a concept where the firm will suffer loss or will make gain only on hapening of certain contingency or event in future. Suppose a company has claimed some money for extra work. Disput arises regarding the inclution of those work in the contract escalation clause. The dispute has been referred to court. The company will gain, if the judgement of court goes in their favor. It is a contingent gain which will materialize only when judgement is favorable. It is not justified to include them in the financial statement as the gain has not been made. Also it is not certain whether such gain will at all be achieved or not. From convertesim point of view any income or gain which is not sure to be earned should not be included. However it is the responsibility of company to disclose all facts in its report.So that it can project true and fair view of state of affairs of the concern. Hence there should be disclosure in the financial statement in detail about the contingent happenings. .

Do you believe the “double taxation” of earnings which occurs at the corporate ownership structure is justified? Solution Double taxation affects C corporations. Double taxation refers to situations when business profits are taxed at both the corporate and personal levels. First profits are taxed at corporate level before paying any amount to shareholders at the rate applicable to corporate. Then dividends are subject to tax at individuals tax rate Double taxation forces corporations to use debt financing, and encourage them to do retained earnings rather than distriubuting to shareholders in the form of dividends. Since the corporations are put at a disadvantage due to double taxation. This is not justified at all since shareholders are considered owners and their income is taxed twice. Dividend should be made exempt and corporates should not have top pay tax on dividends. thus we can say that double taxation affects business and investment decisions which is not justified at all. .
