Concepts for Data Modeling Crystal M. Reedus CIS 210 November 21‚ 2010 Abstract Data modeling techniques and methodologies are used to model data in a standard‚ consistent‚ predictable manner in order to manage it as a resource. Data models support data and computer systems by providing the definition and format of data. From a modeling perspective‚ the entire problem domain is viewed as a collection of class hierarchies (of objects) that are connected by messages. Data modeling techniques and

Topic: Op – art fashion and the product life cycle All products possess ‘life cycles.’ A product ’s life cycle‚ abbreviated PLC‚ consists of a series of stages‚ beginning with its introduction to the market and ending with its decline and eventual withdrawal from the market. As a product progresses through its life cycle‚ its sales and profitability change as it faces changing environmental pressures. Knowledge of the product’s life cycle can provide valuable insights into ways the product

decide Not all the consumers react to the environmental changes in the same way. Different consumers have different reactions to the financial challenge – ranging from an extreme tightening of the purse-strings‚ to a nonchalant continuation of the current indulgences. Tightening may be reflected in different tangible and psychological ways. Manufacturers also need to offer a range of different solutions and propositions to meet these changes in behavior. Additionally‚ different consumer segments

Current and Noncurrent Assets The balance sheet is actually a useful tool for companies. The balance sheet offers a rapid view at the financial position of the organization. The balance sheet shows the assets‚ debts‚ and equity of the business. More valuable‚ the balance sheet shows the existing assets of the organization‚ the noncurrent assets‚ and the order of liquidity. These 3 elements display interested parties the short-term investments‚ long-term investments‚ and the sequence from most

The PLC concept is very useful to marketers and brand managers for many reasons. First of all‚ the concept establishes that products follow a life cycle that starts when they are launched‚ from there they will grow and will‚ one day‚ die. However‚ the most important advantage of this model is that it divides the life of a product in several stages with different characteristics‚ mostly based on the sales level and growth: introduction‚ growth‚ maturity and decline. This division allows managers
