project title: Traffic Congestion in Tampa This project asks you to do workplace research into a local problem impacting a city or the surrounding community. Your goal for this project is to describe a local problem in detail using as much information as you can gather from as many different sources as are useful. That means you are looking at research gathered by others (e.g., government agencies, non-profit organizations, professional and academic experts, as well as local sources from the immediate community), but also you will gather your own data by asking the impacted population for their perspective. You will produce a memo that reports your findings, giving readers a robust understanding of the local problem you have researched. NOTE: You should not offer a solution to the problem. Your task, in this Project, is simply to provide a detailed explanation of the problem you will research the problem, to include the following topics: Background information: Put the problem in context. What does the audience need to know to understand why the problem is a problem? Explanation of the problem In the local community: Describe the local problem in detail. What is happening here? Causes of the problem: Describe the factors contributing to the problem’s occurrence. Why is the problem happening? Impacted Population: Describe the people most directly impacted by the problem. Who is the problem happening to? Be specific. Target a local population that could benefit from intervention. ## First part: Write a paragraph that explains your audience. Imagine that you are writing this work to your project team at a workplace.  Questions to answer: Who is your target audience? (Name the individual or group within a specific organization) What do they do?  Why are they the right audience? How will the content of your report be alerted or selected based on this audience? ## Second part: Research Map and Plan List the four major headings for the research project: Background Explanation of Problem Causes of Problem Impacted Populations 2. For each heading, answer the following: What information do you have so far? (List sources with brief discussion of each) What information do you still need to find? (Explain and discuss) How will you get the information you need? (Where might you look? Can this information be found via secondary research? Will you need to conduct your own primary research? Etc.) 3. Using this map, create a Research Plan including: Your research priorities for this week (What research is most important? What will you work on first? Etc.) A timeline for your remaining research (When/how will you conduct this research?) A plan for contingencies (What will you do if you can't find your information ## Third part: A report in memo format that describes your problem in detail using all the research you have conducted. The memo should have the following section headings: Background Information Explanation of the Problem In the Local Community Causes of the Problem Impacted Population(s)

Technology Transfer Research Paper For this paper, you will research, analyze, and discuss the processes involved in helping technologies emerge from the R&D environment so that they can be incorporated into products and services which meet the needs of the cybersecurity industry. Your research should include: technology transfer processes and initiatives and funding sources, i.e. venture capital, government grants, etc. You should also address the technology development lifecycle and the role of funding availability at each of the lifecycle stages (See NIST GCR 02-841). Begin your research by reading the following documents and resources about technology transfer processes and initiatives. Continue your research by investigating the availability (or lack) of federal funding for innovations in the cybersecurity area. What is a technology? http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Space_Engineerin... Understanding Early-Stage Technology Development https://www.nist.gov/sites/default/files/documents...

How does the availability of venture capital impact the development of technology? How do venture capitalists influence the emergence or death of technology developments? Provide specific examples from your research. Your research is to be incorporated into a 3 to 5 page written summary of the technology transfer process and associated funding issues. Your report is to be submitted as an MS Word attachment to the Technology Transfer Research Paper entry in your assignments folder. See the sample paper and paper template provided in Content > Course Documents > APA Resources. For an “A,” you must use and cite at least five of the authoritative sources listed in this assignment. You must also find and use additional authoritative sources in your analysis. This means that your reference list must have at least ten authoritative sources and those sources must be cited properly in your paper. Additional Information Consult the grading rubric for specific content and formatting requirements for this assignment.Your 3-5 page research paper should be professional in appearance with consistent use of fonts, font sizes, margins, etc. You should use headings and page breaks to organize your paper. Your paper should use standard terms and definitions for cybersecurity. See Course Content > Cybersecurity Concepts Review for recommended resources.The CSIA program recommends that you follow standard APA formatting since this will give you a document that meets the “professional appearance” requirements. APA formatting guidelines and examples are found under Course Resources > APA Resources. An APA template file (MS Word format) has also been provided for your use CSIA_Basic_Paper_Template(APA_6ed,DEC2018).docx. You must include a cover page with the assignment title, your name, and the due date. Your reference list must be on a separate page at the end of your file. These pages do not count towards the assignment’s page count.You are expected to write grammatically correct English in every assignment that you submit for grading. Do not turn in any work without (a) using spell check, (b) using grammar check, (c) verifying that your punctuation is correct and (d) reviewing your work for correct word usage and correctly structured sentences and paragraphs. You are expected to credit your sources using in-text citations and reference list entries. Both your citations and your reference list entries must follow a consistent citation style (APA, MLA, etc.).
