into the Workers’ Compensation (WC) actuarial model workbook. Payroll data for the WC model should contain “only the actual hours worked” for specific Rate Schedule Codes (RSC) groups‚ including executives. The WC payroll data should exclude all paid leave types. A comparison of work hours from the NPHRS mainframe report to the summary in EDW reveals very small differences. We hope to align the NPHRS and EDW work hour data. Also‚ we (Technical Analysis‚ Accounting and Finance) need to understand

Be Data Literate – Know What to Know by Peter F. Drucker Executives have become computer literate. The younger ones‚ especially‚ know more about the way the computer works than they know about the mechanics of the automobile or the telephone. But not many executives are information-literate. They know how to get data. But most still have to learn how to use data. Few executives yet know how to ask: What information do I need to do my job? When do I need it? In what

and cross talk on a cabling medium are factors that prevent the accuracy of transmitted data to be intact. For these reasons different encoding methods exist. An example is when 2 wires are used to transmit music data to a speaker Digital signals don’t always have to be carried over to the receiving end by electricity‚ light can also be used for digital communication. Fibre Optics use light to transmit data through optical fibre within the cable. The strength of the light ray can also be a determining

Americans leave long electronic trails of private information wherever they go. But too often‚ that data is compromised. When they shop—whether online or at brick and mortar stores—retailers gain access to their credit card numbers. Medical institutions maintain patient records‚ which are increasingly electronic. Corporations store copious customer lists and employee Social Security numbers. These types of data frequently get loose. Hackers gain entry to improperly protected networks‚ thieves steal employee

1. Data Processing- is any process that a computer program does to enter data and‚ summarize‚ analyze or otherwise convert data into usable information. The process may be automated and run on a computer. It involves recording‚ analyzing‚ sorting‚ summarizing‚ calculating‚ disseminating and storing data. Because data are most useful when well-presented and actually informative‚ data-processing systems are often referred to as information systems. Nevertheless‚ the terms are roughly synonymous‚ performing

What is Data Communications? Next Topic | TOC The distance over which data moves within a computer may vary from a few thousandths of an inch‚ as is the case within a single IC chip‚ to as much as several feet along the backplane of the main circuit board. Over such small distances‚ digital data may be transmitted as direct‚ two-level electrical signals over simple copper conductors. Except for the fastest computers‚ circuit designers are not very concerned about the shape of the conductor or
