My Speech Intro: There have been many changes in Medicine since the 1950’s that have benefitted people beyond belief. Since the establishment of the NHS (National Health Service), which provided free health service to those who were unable to afford it, there have been many milestones in the medical field of study. This great success would have not been possible, and still would not be possible, if it wasn’t for funding from the government, non-profit organizations, companies, charities, and individuals…
Saudi Arabia’s economy to a %1858 growth during the 1970’s. While this rapid growth did subside in the 1980’s due to a decreased global demand and generally unorganized distribution channels, the Kingdom was able to regain a 20% growth during the 1990’s (“Doing”). Today, oil accounts for 90% of national exports and 75% of government revenues. More importantly, oil production is regulated enough to avoid another global “oil glut” of the 1980’s, when excessive Saudi production pushed oil prices down…

people management, and is the root from which HRM has grown. It was during the 1970’s that a consistent set of roles and actions had established for people management and in large organisations were seen as a specialist management function termed personnel management: consisting of areas such as recruitment, employee welfare, training and development and employee exit. During this period of the late 1970’s and early 1980’s the people management practices and policies that are termed ‘HRM’ originated in…
John Cocke, and completed in 1980. The 801 was eventually produced in a single-chip form as the ROMP (Research OPD Micro Processor) in 1981. This CPU was designed for mini tasks, and inspired several research projects, including new ones at IBM that would eventually lead to the IBM POWER instruction set architecture. The most public RISC designs were the results of university research programs run with funding from the DARPA VLSI (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) Program. The VLSI Program…
