What are web Services?
What are web Services? Web services allow interoperable software components to be built over the web using standard protocols, which can perform business functions and processes. Currently organisations have to choose a single product vendor to provide the software functionality to perform an business function or process i.e. if a company wishes to automate it's HR function then it would look at souring the software from a single ERP vendor rather then source the best bits from the best vendors at the right price. The main reason for this is interoperability of data definition and messaging standards between different vendors is not consistent. This means a-lot of work on integrating the different components would need to be carried out which is not feasible. Interoperability of data and messaging is the underlying foundation of web services. Organisations will be able to get the best components from the companies wish to perform their business functions e.g. within HR a software component to manage compensation and benefits can be bought from SAP, a software component to manage performance management can be bought from PeopleSoft and so on. All these components are interact under the web services framework to provide a seemless automated HR function. This single example simpler more cost effective integration will The concepts that underpin Web Services are not new: *
Understanding effective communication
2 of 4: Understanding effective communication P2: Discuss theories of communication This essay will discuss about theories of communication The communication cycle works when two individuals understand one another’s opinion or discussion. Communication cycle takes place when two people are interacting and to receive the message just to make sure that they understood what was said. Listening skills is another way to achieve effective communication which can develop the understanding of the viewpoint. There has been an argument about interpersonal communication which (Michael Argyle, 1972) has stated that “This skill could be learned and developed in much the same way as learning to drive a car.” He was talking about drivers that they have to control and manage their feelings, depends on what is happening on the road. What he’s trying to explain is that as a driver they also use their cycle skills such as constant. It means that the diver has to pay attention what is happening on the road to overcome hazards, plan how to respond, create response and then the repetition cycle will take account so that the diver will be able to get their destination. The communication cycle has a code which needs to be translated. The person has to find about what the other person is trying to say and to view their behaviour.

Wilfred Owen 'Dulce et decorum est'.
Dulce et decorum est In this poem, by Wilfred Owen 'Dulce et decorum est' Owen was attempting to across the full horror of the First World War. In great detail get he describes a soldier suffering and dying in a gas attack. The poem is written from the point of view of an eyewitness who was there before during and after the attack. Owen finishes by asking the reader to tell their children the truth about the war and not the 'old lie' that it is sweet and fitting to die for your country, 'Dulce et decorum est pro pratria mori'. In the poem 'dulce et decorum est' (which means it is sweet and fitting) The poem is narrative and in sections. The first section is the men going to rest the second is .the gas attack in the trenches. The third is the man having bad dreams to do with the incident. The fourth is explaining if you had seen what he had seen you would not want to tell your children of these awful conditions. The rhyme scheme goes ABABCDCDEFEF I did not notice this at first, this is very good poetry and the words are well thought out. The similes in this poem are very good 'flound'ring like a man in fire or lime' this means the man was going all over the place and it was like he was on fire. There are also a lot of metaphors 'Men marched asleep' this is because the men were so tired it looked as though they were asleep. This poem has got a very sad, dark and somber feel
