In the left side ATMs and Remote Branches are connected with Core router. The ISP’s which provide Internet those are also connected with Core Router via Firewall.The connectivity diagram of Metronet-BRAC Bank Data Center as followed. Fig- 3. 2 Data Center Connectivity Architecture 13 3. 2 Omnibus Architecture: Omnibus is a Transaction Banking Software. BRAC Bank Ltd, the fastest growing bank in Bangladesh, and ITCL (Q-Cash), a private ATM network presently serving 12 member banks, have launched OMNIBUS, the first neutral inter-bank switch in Bangladesh. Fig- 3. 3 BRAC Bank Omnibus Architecture OMNIBUS is the name of the independent association of member banks and institutions t hat will operate and manage the central switch.As a first step, OMNIBUS integrates the ATM & POS networks of BRAC Bank and Q-Cash, enabling cardholders of BRAC Bank and Q-Cash member banks to access their accounts from any of the 150+ ATMs and 14 1,200+ POS terminals. OMNIBUS is modeled around success of 1-Link in Pakistan and TPS has played an instrumental role in terms of technology transfer and adoption of best practices. The shared ATM/POS switch offers significant convenience to customers of its member banks through greater transaction touch points, providing anytime, anywhere banking.This instant increase in the number of ATMs & POS terminals for the customers to use their cards on, not only gives the cost advantage to the bank, it improves operational efficiency and customer services. The Omnibus Server is also connected with BRAC Bank Core Router and all Banking Server is connected via Metronet & Link3 with Omnibus and Omnibus server is also connected via Metronet & Link3. 1 5 3. 3 Eldorado Architecture: Eldorado – a web based remittance and payment processing system, which will be a complementary system of BEFTN (Bangladesh Electronic Fund Transfer Network) of Bangladesh Bank.BRAC Bank is one of the key members of Eldorado. Fig- 3. 4 BRAC Bank Eldorado Architecture Eldorado is a common electronic platform for delivering inward remittances from the originating institutions to ultimate beneficiaries in Bangladesh. Handling inter-bank transactions will be efficient, since electronic reconciliation facility will enhance the capacity to process and payment of large volume of inbound remittances more accurately. This will help the member banks to serve their remittance customers even better and faster. 16To popularize the formal banking channels among the non-resident Bangladeshis for sending their hard-earned foreign currency, Eldorado will play an extensive role. It is a standardized IT platform that will enable all member banks to execute remittanc es electronically in the most expeditious and compliant manner. Reliability and pace of receiving individual remittances matter the most to our customers, especially, when need arises. Every single effort of Eldorado members will trickle down to one single objective bringing smile on the faces of their customers. The Eldorado Server is connected with core router of BRAC Bank via Metronet & Link3. . 4 Network Architecture of Branches: Fig- 3. 5: Network Architecture of Branches The Branch is connected with Cisco 1811 Router. The two Vendors set up the link between the remote Branch and Core Router. The two vendors are configured with Tunnel for security issue. One Native VLAN is configured in Remote Branch and the EIGRP Routing Protocol is configured in Cisco Router for Routing. 17 3. 5 Network Architecture of a sample Branch Fig 3. 6: Network Architecture of Entire Branch In entire Branch the router is connected via two vendors.

Phoenix is directly connected with HSM (Host security module). Using HSM the soft switch conformed is the PIN number is correct or not. If HSM send green signal for PIN then Phoenix send the CARD number in Finacle. Finacle is core banking database, an account holder all information is saved on Finacle. Last of all as user interest ATM machine operate operation Fig- 3. 7 ATM Architecture of BRAC Bank CHAPTER FOUR LINK ESTABLISHMENT, CONFIGURATION AND TROUBLESHOOTING 4. 1 New link deployment: The process of new link deployment is as followed.Fig- 4. 1 Link Deployment Process flowchart 20 4. 2 Link vendor selection: The issue consideration and their descriptions are pointed below. Table 4. 1 Issues related link vendor selection Issue Consideration Multiple vendors in same radius Description Any vendor that already has a link running in nearby location should not be given priority. Try to provide the link to another vendor which has no or less links running in that area. Introducing multiple vendors will ensure maximum uptime for that area. Redundant backbone for Intercity Links Select vendors that have different backbone for intercity connectivity.This will increase uptime incase of intercity backbone fails. Shorter Last mile connectivity Try to select vendors that will be able to provide last mile connectivity with shorter cable distance. As longer cables suffer from higher down time and require more maintenance. Licensed Radio Frequency Tower Height for Radio Links This will ensure better service quality and uptime. Identify vendors that will be able to establish a radio link with shorter tower. One time installation charge increases as tower height increases. Longer tower needs more maintenance cost. Service QualityVendors with poor service quality should not be considered even though they have met all other requireme nts. Support Personnel Select vendors that have dedicated support personnel for remote locations. Also count response time for all previous downtime. Balance of Distribution In order to ensure maximum uptime it is important that we balance the distribution among the vendors. This will decrease the overall downtime. Local Loop Avoid same type of media for Last mile connectivity. Avoid any Point-To-Point Radio equipments at Lat mile. 21 4. 3 Network maintenance: Following process follows for the network maintenance for link troubleshoot.Fig- 4. 2 Network Maintenance flowchart 4. 4 Link monitoring & maintenance: Link Monitoring and maintenance works in two different ways. 4. 4. 1 Branch Link monitoring & maintenance Fig- 4. 3 Branch Link monitoring & maintenance flowchart 4. 4. 2 ATM link monitoring & maintenance Fig- 4. 4 ATM Link monitoring & maintenance flowchart 22 4. 5 Link troubleshoot checklist 4. 5. 1 Radio Link Fig- 4. 5 Radio Link Troubleshooting Process 4. 5. 2 Fiber Link Fi g- 4. 6 Fiber Link Troubleshooting Process 4. 6 Remote access policy Fig- 4. 7 Remote Access Policy Process CHAPTER FIVE Wi-Fi AND INTERNET CONNECTIVITY 5.

SWIFT also markets software and services to financial institutions, much of it for use on the SWIFTNet Network, and ISO 9362 bank identifier codes (BICs) are popularly known as â€Å"SWIFT codes†.The majority of international interbank messages use the SWIFT network. As of September 2010, SWIFT linked more than 9,000 financial institutions in 209 countries and territories, who were exchanging an average of over 15 million messages per day. SWIFT transports financial messages in a highly secure way, but does not hold accounts for its members and does not perform any form of clearing or settlement. SWIFT does not facilitate funds transfer, rather, it sends payment orders, which must be settled via correspondent accounts that the institutions have with each other.Each financial institution, to exchange banking transactions, must have a b anking relationship by either being a bank or affiliating itself with one (or more) so as to enjoy those particular business features. 66 8. 2. 1 BRAC Bank Swift Network Diagram Fig-8. 37 Swift Network Diagram 8. 2. 2 SWIFT Infrastructure Overview: A typical SWIFT customer environment consists of a combination of individual components that interact with each other to provide messaging services.

Hunting Is Not Only Sustainable - 1464 Words

Hunting has been a way of life and means of survival for many different people groups throughout history. Today however, a large portion of society is becoming less tolerant towards hunting. This anti-hunting sentiment comes as a result of poor hunting practices in the past which damaged wildlife populations; however, much has been done since then to improve the practice of hunting. Hunting today both sustains and helps conserve wildlife. Hunting practices today are sustainable because of strict regulations which are based on continuous research. This research requires money, much of which is generated through hunting. Hunters also generally have a high level of respect for wildlife which is important for promoting conservation in the face†¦show more content†¦While using resources is a good thing, it is important to balance short term needs with the needs of future generations by taking care of the environment (179). By this definition, we can see that sustainability is a c omplex issue that requires much thought and planning in order to protect the future. Many people who are opposed to hunting believe that it is not sustainable. This notion probably comes from an instance in the past when hunting practices were not sustainable. In the past, decisions were made based almost entirely on economic growth, while protecting the environment was only an afterthought. An example where poor hunting practices had a negative effect on the environment was the near extinction of the North American Bison in the 1800s. During this time, there was a high demand for bison hides (Isenberg 130) so â€Å"hunters pushed the species to the brink of extinction† (2) in order to meet the demands of growing industries. Although there were other factors involved such as â€Å"the harsh grassland environment itself† (2), overhunting played a significant role in the near extinction of buffalo in North America. This and other examples like it are likely what people t hink of when they say that hunting is unsustainable. Although hunting played a role in the depletion of many animal populations in the 1800’s, hunting itself was not responsible for this, it was â€Å"[u]nregulated killing [that] caused such depletions† (Heffelfinger 401).

International Trade Law Sale of Goods †MyAssignmenthelp.com

Question: Discuss about the International Trade Law Sale of Goods. Answer: The legislation of sale of goods in Australia Canada and England is based on the sale of goods act 1893(UK). The Sale of Goods Act 1979 is a statute of UK[1]. It is to be mentioned that the sale of goods act regulates the terms of the contract by which goods are bought and sold. The Sale of Goods Act serves a variety of functions and has many implications in reality. For the purpose of clearly defining sale of goods act it is to be clearly mentioned that Sale of Goods act basically acts as a contract in which the seller transfers the ownership in the property to the buyer for a stipulated amount called consideration. Buyer, according to the act can be defined as a person who agrees to buy any property from the seller and seller is the person who transfers the property to the buyer for the consideration. It is to be stated that the sale of goods act lays down a list of compulsory regulations and legal rules which are concerned with the implied terms and presumptions of the contract. The legal rules and the regulations governed by the sale of goods act aim to provide a reflection of the commercial expectations in common sales contract. It can be said that if the contract between the buyer and the seller does not state otherwise, the terms of the sale of goods act will be imposed on the contract. The seller has been given more responsibility by thelaw as it is expected that the buyer will rely on the honesty and integrity of the seller while purchasing the goods. The sale of goods act 1979 later codified the original sale of goods act 1893. It is to be noted thatlaw in relation to governing the relationship between the parties has been left untouched so that the buyer and the seller can decide their own terms of the agreement. Thus the act of codifying the original sale of goods act did not impinge the autonomy f the parties[2]. The parties who entered into commercial contracts were believed to be the best judges of the obligation to be imposed upon either of them for the stipulated consideration. The statute sale of goods act was drafted from the perspective of the buyer and aims to uphold and safeguard the interest of the buyer in general contracts of sale of goods. It can be said that judicial intervention is required in most cases in order to determine the intention of the parties while entering into the contract the courts are allowed to apply their philosophies for the purpose of determining the intention of the parties. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for International Sale of Goods [3] has also had significant impact on the relationship between the parties to a contract of sale of goods. To provide comparison between the convention and the sale of goods act it is essential to test the currentlaw against the convention. It is also important to assess whether a rule which would allow the parties to terminate or reject the terms of the contract should be incorporated in the contract of sale of goods. Such termination or rejection of the terms of the contract by either of the parties would is in favor of the buyer as it will enable the buyer to reject the goods if they do not comply with the terms of the contract even if goods even if the tender accords with terms of the contract. However it is detrimental to the rights of the seller. According to[4] it is important to have consideration for the relation which is shared between the regime of rejection and termination and the regime which governs the exercise of rights. The perfect tender rule in relation to sale of goods in commercial context is in de facto operations in Australia and England. This rule is applied in most cases as it is easy to provide justification for terminating a sale of goods if there is a breach of a contract term rather than the breach of sellers express obligation for providing the buyer with quality product or buyers obligation for paying the stipulated consideration in time. It is to be mentioned that provision of termination is available under the provisions of generallaw in Canada, England and Australia. However such termination clause will depend on the conditions as enumerated below: Express right of the parties to terminate the contract which is to be activated by the breach of the obligations of either of the parties which acts as a clause of termination Breach of any term of the contract which might be implied of express if such contract term was classified as a condition of the contract Omission of performance of obligation by either of the parties. The express right for termination and Rejection is introduced by the cancellation clause. However rights related to cancellation are additionally conferred by legislation. In order to have a better understanding of breach of a condition it is essential to identify when a condition is to be treated as a contingency. However assessing a condition as a contingency can be an uncertain event. It can be said that when the obligation of one party to fulfill a duty is dependent on the fulfillment of a contingency as promised by the other party such a term can be defined as a condition. Breach of such condition gives right to the former party to terminate the contract. The right of a party to terminate a contract in case of breach of intermediate term has been introduced to enable courts to assess whether the terms of the contract is possible of being breached in several ways. Breach of performance of duty by the promisor is given importance than breach of the term itself. The right of terminating the contract is granted to the party if the breach of the terms of the contract is fundamental. The sale of goods act implies terms into contract. Any breach of terms entitles the innocent party to claim damages from the defendant for the loss sustained by him. According to[5] buyer has the right to claim damages for breach of warranties if there is a breach of implied terms in relation to quality, description of the product. Section 12(1) of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 states that in case of the agreement to sell, the seller will be granted the right to sell the goods at the time when the property is to pass [6]. It is also to be stated that in case of a sale a condition is implied that the seller is granted the right to sell the property if any adverse circumstances do not arise as held in the remarkable case Rowland v Divall[7]. According to section 13(1) of the aforementioned act it can be stated that the goods sold by description must correspond with the description provided to the buyer at the time of selling the goods. The case Beale v Taylor [8]is a classic example of go ods to be sold by description. It was illustrated in the case Harlington v Christopher Hull (1990)that the implied condition of sale of goods by description can be breached by the buyer if such buyer purchased the goods in reliance of the description of the goods. Thus to conclude it can be said that the Sale of Goods Act 1979 provides general guidelines about the relationship between the parties to the contract. The sale of goods act however leaves scope for amending the terms of by the parties as it has been held that the parties are the best judges of the contract to be entered into by them. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (1980) also impacts the sale of goods across international borders. The Sale of Goods Act 1979 was originally drafted to safeguard the interest of the buyer in the property.

Gwen Harwood- Father and Child Essay Example

Gwen Harwood- Father and Child Essay Gwen Harwood- Father and Child The ability of a text to be universally accepted in a range of contexts ultimately determines its textual integrity and appreciation. Gwen Harwood’s work draws from the inspiration of her context, her lifelong influences, primarily music, her childhood and religious beliefs. This can be identified through study of Gwen Harwoods poem, Father and Child that is able to be appreciated in a multitude of different contexts due to its universality and textual integrity. Gwen Harwood’s coherent use of form and language to produce an integrated whole in terms of meaning and value affirm the textual integrity of her work â€Å"Father and Child†. The poem delicately integrates a host of re-iterated universal motifs to produce the poem as a collective whole and confirms Gwen Harwood’s ability to transcend time in her poetry so that it can be accepted in a great deal of contexts. Perhaps the pivotal idea presented in the poem is time. Harwood has clearly articulated the concern for time passing by, and the loss of innocence that comes as a child gains experience, also reflecting the trademark interwoven Romantic style of her poetry. The structure of the poem further delves into this idea of the concern for time. The two symmetrical linked poems place emphasis on how time has moved on and separate childhood from adulthood. The constant use of enjambments reflect the passing of time and the ambiguity of where time disappears to in our vast existence.

A prominent aspect of the poem is the amalgamation of religions and biblical allusions ranging through multiple belief systems. Harwood’s integrated insinuations â€Å"horny fiend†, â€Å"times long promised land† that relate both to the Christian and Jewish religions, present all responders the opportunity to find their own personal interpretation and acceptance in her work. It is through her constant allowance of subjective understanding such as the religious undertones that the capacity of Gwen Harwood’s work continues to be appreciated in different contexts. This notion is additionally developed through the profundity of the inter-textual relationship of Shakespeare’s ‘King Lear’. There is a lateral connection between Harwoods Father and Child, and William Shakespeares King Lear that can be appreciated through the inclusion of direct quotes such as â€Å"be your tears wet†. The ambiguity of the gender of the child is another important aspect of Harwood’s work that is linked to King Lear. It is through the extended allusions that the responder can fully understand the connection of the poem to the play and the link between the father/daughter relationship in both compositions. Through this integration it is evident that Harwood’s work can be appreciated in a multitude of contexts through its unified whole that maintains its textual integrity. Harwood develops a distinct motif of eyes and blindness echoed repeatedly through the story told in the poem. The repetition of the imagery of eyes is used to emphasise the importance of sight that becomes significant as the owl is unable to see in the day time. â€Å"Those eyes that did not see mirror my cruelty†. This powerful imagery used by Harwood exemplify how the child can see herself reflected in the dying eyes of the owl and expresses how the poem reveals the magic and consequences of childish acts and how experiences and discoveries during childhood delicately reshape the mind and character of a person, which can be noted through the change in Nightfall. The reflection she is mirrored by articulates her loss of innocence occasioned through this experience. The universal notion in the poem and a trait of Harwood’s work is the inclusion of music and musical allusions. Through music Harwood finds herself able to express what she cannot through plain words. The reference to a violin in the poem â€Å"you speak as if air touched a string near breaking point† is important in creating the idea of a dichotomous relationship between individuals, specifically herself and music. Harwood once again has successfully unified a universal motif to make her work able to be accepted in different contexts with different responders. As the character comes to accept the passing of time and how it in inevitable despite the authors ability to transcend it, the responder comes to understand the true delicacy of the story, how Harwood comes to terms with not only the passing of time but of her father and how he cannot make things right for her as he use to when she was a child. It is through this realisation that we can truly understand the essence of Harwood’s work and become aware how the textual integrity of her poetry remains definitive through time. The universal motifs mentioned above create a sense of ubiquity that provides the responder the opportunity to find an acceptable interpretation of her work
