You will be asked to write a report on a topic you select from a list of subjects below or you can suggest your own. The focus of this market brief report should not simply be a technical description of the topic.Possible issues that you might discuss in your report are the economic costs of the technology, or typical organizational motivations for selecting this technology, or technical factors that might limit where an organization could use this technology. For example, if the topic of your report was “Voice and Data Wiring Standards”, your paper should not be an extended discussion of the technical characteristics of copper wire.While it’s important to know that CAT-5 wiring can be used up to 100Mbps and has a given db loss over 100 meters, the focus should also be on business issues, such as how upgrading office wiring systems to Cat-5 cabling might permit voice-over-IP applications.
