Role Models and The Significance of Literature True poverty is something that many of us will never encounter. Frank McCourt survived harsh elements‚ an alcoholic father‚ an unrelenting religion‚ and the deaths of many family members. With such a hard life it makes one wonder how McCourt kept going day-by-day. Frank may not have had any materialistic items or a very good father but along the way we learn how McCourt found strength in literature and various father figures. Literature in any form

The Information technology industry‚ where nothing is predictable and constant change has become a usual trend‚ is now on its new phase of its evolution stages. According to Richard L. Nolan‚ MBA Class of 1942 Professor of Business Administration: “Information Technology is no longer being used as just a tactical resource‚ it’s now fundamentally influencing business strategy and competition” (http://www.alumni.hbs.edu/bulletin/1997/april/text/theory_text.html 04.02.06).

Mathematical Programming: An Overview 1 Management science is characterized by a scientific approach to managerial decision making. It attempts to apply mathematical methods and the capabilities of modern computers to the difficult and unstructured problems confronting modern managers. It is a young and novel discipline. Although its roots can be traced back to problems posed by early civilizations‚ it was not until World War II that it became identified as a respectable and well defined body of

Mathematical modeling is commonly used to predict the behavior of phenomena in the environment. Basically‚ it involves analyzing a set of points from given data by plotting them‚ finding a line of "best fit" through these points‚ and then using the resulting graph to evaluate any given point. Models are useful in hypothesizing the future behavior of populations‚ investments‚ businesses‚ and many other things that are characterized by fluctuations. A mathematical model usually describes a

Mathematical logic is something that has been around for a very long time. Centuries Ago Greek and other logicians tried to make sense out of mathematical proofs. As time went on other people tried to do the same thing but using only symbols and variables. But I will get into detail about that a little later. There is also something called set theory‚ which is related with this. In mathematical logic a lot of terms are used such as axiom and proofs. A lot of things in math can be proven‚ but there
