Contingency Planning

Contingency planning is the process of preparing for unexpected events or emergencies. It means thinking ahead and making plans to deal with problems that might happen in the future. These problems could be natural disasters, accidents, system failures, or other serious issues. The goal of contingency planning is to keep a business, project, or operation running even when something goes wrong.

When a company has a good contingency plan, it can act quickly and effectively in a crisis. This reduces damage, saves time, and protects people and resources. A contingency plan is like a backup plan. It gives you a clear idea of what to do if things don’t go as expected.

Here are some important points about contingency planning:

  • Identify possible risks: First, think about what could go wrong in the future.
  • Create backup plans: Make different plans for different types of problems.
  • Assign roles: Decide who will do what during an emergency.
  • Test the plan: Practice the plan to see if it works well.
  • Update regularly: Check and improve the plan from time to time.

In short, contingency planning is an important part of risk management. It helps businesses and people stay prepared and avoid panic when facing a crisis.

Week 4 - Hardware Repair

 When performing computer hardware repair, it's important to pay attention to several key points to ensure successful and safe repair. Safety precautions, Diagnosing the problem, component capability, using proper tools, component replacement, handle software issues separately, reassemble carefully are the major things that I have learned from the video and my own research.  1.  Safety Precautions: v   Power Off & Unplug: Always make sure the computer is turned off and unplugged from the power source before starting any repairs. v   Ground Yourself: Use an anti-static wrist strap to avoid damaging sensitive components with static electricity. Alternatively, ground yourself by touching a metal object. v   Handling Components Carefully: Avoid touching the pins or contacts on components (like RAM, CPU, or motherboard) to prevent damage. v   Heat: Some parts, like CPUs and power supplies, can get hot. Be cautious to avoid burns. 2. Diagnosing...

Week 3- Selection of CPU, RAM and Processor

  Choosing the right CPU is the biggest challenge for non-tech people in this century. When choosing a CPU, we can consider such as number of cycles a CPU can perform per second called (GHz), number of cores and its purpose, compatibility of processor with the CPU and the budget. After I completed chapters 3 and 4 in a book, and other materials that have various information about processors, RAM (DRAM) manufacturers, SSD, coolers, and overall CPU selections, I would like to summarize some of the points in this post. Modern CPU's can process multiple commands in parts of commands in parallel. Intel and AMD have built in support for running more than one operating system at a time a process. (is called visualization) The CPU is composed of multiple chunks of circuitry to handle the many types of calculation our PC needs to do. When selecting a CPU you need to make certain the motherboard can accommodate or if you are buying a motherboard along with the CPU then get the right CPU fo...
