Risk management is one of the most important components in empowering an organization to achieve its ultimate vision. With proper risk management culture and knowledge, team members will be “speaking” the same language, and they will leverage common analytical abilities to identify and mitigate potential risks as well as exploit opportunities in a timely fashion. In order to consolidate efforts, the existence of an integrated framework is crucial. This is why an ERM is necessary to the fulfillment of any organization’s goals and objectives.

In your final research project for the course, your task is to write a 7-10 page paper discussing the following concepts:

• Introduction
• Why should an organization Implement an ERM application?
• What are some key challenges and solutions to Implementing an ERM?
• What is Important for an effective ERM?
• Discuss at least one real organization that has been effective with implementing an ERM framework or /application.
• Conclusion, final thoughts for future research
• Recommendation

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately seven to ten pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.
• Follow APA7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
• Support your answers with the readings from the course, the course textbook, and at least ten scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find supplemental resources.
• Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

Final Project

This assignment demonstrates your understanding of the concepts from the CMIS 141 class. This 

homework consists of 1 programming assignment worth 25 points.

Before attempting this project, be sure you have completed all of the reading assignments, hands-on 

labs, discussions, and assignments to date.  

1. (25 points) Design a Java application that will read a file containing data related to the 

passengers on the Titanic. The description of the file is shown below.  The application should 

provide statistical results on the passengers including: 

a.  Total number of passengers on the Titanic

b.  Total number of passengers who perished on the Titanic

c.  Total number of Passengers who survived the sinking of the Titanic

d.  Number of passengers who survived the sinking of the Titanic as a function of the 

passenger class (e.g. 1,2,3)

e.  Number of passengers who survived the sinking of the Titanic as a function of the 

passenger gender (e.g., male, female)

f.  A list of the names of passengers who paid greater than $200 for their tickets

g.  A list of the names of passengers who were less than 10 years old who survived the 

sinking of the Titanic

h.  A list of the names of passengers who were less than 10 years old who perished on the 

Titanic

i.  The count of the number of passengers as a function of the first letter of their last name. 

(e.g., A: 13, B:33 …)

j.  Additional statistical results you add to enhance the functionality

The following are some design criteria and specific requirements that need to be addressed:

a.  Use command line arguments to send in the name of the Titanic file. 

b.  Use a 2D array to store the Titanic data. (Hint: You will probably need to store the array 

as String values and then convert to other types as needed since some data is null)

c.  You should create at least 2 Java classes – Titanic and TestTitanic. You are welcome to 

create additional classes if you want to further separate the functionality.

d.  You should create separate methods for each of the required functionality. (e.g. 

getTotalPassengers() will return the total number of passengers on the Titanic.)

e.  A user-friendly and well-organized menu should be used for users to select which data 

to return.  A sample menu is shown in run example. You are free to enhance your design

and you should add additional menu items and functionality.

f.  The menu system should be displayed at the command prompt, and continue to 

redisplay after results are returned or until Q is selected. If a user enters an invalid menu 

item, the system should redisplay the menu with a prompt asking them to enter a valid 

menu selection

g.  The application should keep track of the elapsed time (in seconds) between once the 

application starts and when the user quits the program. After the program is exited, the 

2

application should provide a prompt thanking the user for trying the Titanic program 

and providing the total time elapsed.

Here is sample run:

 Week 3: Discussion 2by Roozer Tuladhar – Friday, 7 September 2018, 9:38 PM 

We have seen multiple instances where terrorists take innocent civilians as hostages. They are taken from their places and kept in a hostile environment. They are held against their will and deprived of the basic necessities like food and water. In exchange for their safe return, they keep outrageous demands in the negotiation process. Hence, there needs to be proper negotiation planning for these high-risk situations. First, we need to assess the situation, and learn more about the terrorist. We need to analyze their strength and weakness, organize our information and then get ready for the negotiation process (Burr, 2001). Generally, in these types of negotiation, the terrorist almost always asks for immunity as a part of the deal in exchange for safe return of the hostages. However, the government will still want to capture the terrorist as they have committed a crime. It is in this situation, we face an ethical dilemma.

Ethics refers to the moral principles that are accepted as right or wrong. It depends on the perspective of an individual (Kronzon & Darley, 1999). What might seem ethical for one person may not be ethical for the other person. In our current predicament, the government wants to deceive the terrorist during the negotiation process about providing the terrorist immunity. This is where the ethics clashes from person to person. Some might say, lying is unethical and we might lose our moral values (Burr, 2001). They also argue that we should always be honest and strive to be ethical as ethics are one of the fundamental bases of humanity (Burr, 2001). However, others might say, it is the duty of the government to save the innocent by any means and arrest the bad guys. This is a very tricky negotiation process.

One of the articles I researched, the authors performed an experiment and concluded that how ethical views of person depends on who he/she identifies with (Kronzon & Darley, 1999). In this situation, I believe most of the people would clearly identify with the hostages and take their side.

In this situation, I believe, the right and the legal thing to do is to would be to deceive the terrorist to free the hostages. We are talking about innocent civilians who haven’t done anything wrong so why do they have to suffer. The terrorists should be punished, and government do whatever necessary to achieve that. We are talking about human lives here. That is the most important thing in this situation. What is ethical about making innocent people suffer. In this situation, save a life should be deemed a mandatory necessity and ethics as an optional luxury. Also, we can always debate about the ethics after we save the hostages and capture the terrorists.
