Discussion - Enterprise Risk Management

During this semester, we reviewed a number of areas in risk and risk management, risk assessment and the way in which companies can try and minimize their risk exposure. Getting closer to your dissertation, you will need to choose a topic in your first dissertation class, DSRT-736, so it is essential to start preparing. This week, let us take a look at some topics to consider, and by the end of the week, we could have several ideas for dissertation topics. Since you have already examined several research articles, another way would be to examine previous dissertations in these areas. Visit the University of Cumberland’s library, go to the Dissertation Database, and locate an interesting topic on risk, a model, framework, some approach to minimizing risk, etc. Here are some pointers that will help critically evaluate some viable topics:

· Is the topic attainable for a first-time dissertation student?

·  Is the problem rooted in the literature?

· Is the research empirical, i.e., is there a survey, is there an interview guide, has the data been analyzed via some statistical tool?

· Is there a theoretical model or framework discussed?

Discuss the topic, the problem the model has been used in the research, and any present findings.

Do not read the entire dissertation, as the abstract and chapter one introduction should give a clear understanding of the research.

Your paper should meet these requirements: 

· 300-350 Words

· Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find 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.

Research – System Analysis and design

Assignment 8.1 - Data Flow Diagrams and Data Dictionaries

Research a scholarly paper or professional video on "Data Flow Diagrams and Data Dictionaries"  and reflect on only one (1) of the following topics:

· "Useful DFD": When would a Data Flow Diagram be the most useful in systems analysis and design? 

· "DFD Processes": What business processes are most likely to use DFDs? 

· "Dictionaries": Who is the audience for Data Dictionaries and how important is it for end-users to understand their data?

You must copy and paste the topic ("Useful DFD" or "DFD Processes" or "Dictionaries") at the start of your paper to provide a context for your answer. This paper must be between 250-300 words on what caught your eye and reflect on what you read.  Do not add extraneous text that does not address the question - do not add an introduction or conclusion. Do not copy and paste text from the referenced resource.

You must provide at least one APA reference for your resource and corresponding in-text citations.. You must provide the referenced resource URL/DOI in the APA reference. Do not use the Textbook as a referenced resource.
