3.00 Credits
Introduces emerging wireless technologies and their potential applications and services today, as well as in coming generations. Due to the rapid development of wireless technology and deployment of wireless networks, some wireless carriers are already testing their 4th generation (4G) services and products focusing on the next generation broadband wireless mobile communications which converge wireless access, wireless mobile, wireless LAN and packet-division-multiplexed (PDM) networks. The 4GMF is launched on a new, different platform so as to complement (and not to compete with) WWRF, Darpa XG, mITF, K4G, J4G, FuTURE, F4G, B3G, 802.20. You will learn the definitions and features of 1G, 2G, 2.5G , 3G and 4G; different types of technologies; advantages and issues of 3G/4G wireless; potential applications; impact of 3G/4G technologies to our society; compatibility and migration issues of different generations. You will analyze the merits and impacts of Ng technologies via case studies, and prepare an RFP to select and evaluate various wireless technologies in a given business enterprise. Co-requisite: ITM 300.

3.00 Credits
Introduces information technology managers to geographic information systems (GIS) and their applications. You will learn the combination of software and hardware through which you can manipulate, analyze and display spatially referenced information - information that is referenced by its location on the earth's surface. By linking data to maps, a GIS can reveal relationships not apparent with traditional item-referenced information systems and databasemanagement products. By displaying information in a graphical form, you can communicate complex spatial patterns succinctly. This course is applicable to IT managers in technology, business and government fields. GIS plays a major role in fields like market research, site selection, real estate, civil engineering and telecommunications - both fixed and wireless (cable networks, traffic pattern analysis, etc). City and county governments are incorporating GIS as part of their planning and decision-making processes. States and the federal government are adopting GIS to manage operations from highway planning to environmental resource conservation. Through lectures, lab work (using ArcGIS software) and discussion, this course will introduce the concepts needed to use GIS effectively and correctly, and develop basic proficiency in GIS software usage. Applications will primarily focus on urban and regional analysis, through business, environmental and geological applications. Co-requisite: ITM 300.

3.00 Credits
Defines network security in the context of networks, information and computer systems operating on a global basis. Networking architecture, technologies and systems are briefly introduced; ISO compliance requirements are covered; network threats and vulnerabilities are explored. You will learn about network security analysis, prevention and monitoring; the history of network security; the role of cryptography in network security; an in-depth overview of digital security vendors and security resources; analysis and presentation of security case studies and preparation of an RFP for network security applications. Co-requisite: ITM 300.

3.00 Credits
Examines information technology (IT) systems as a key strategic tool for gaining and sustaining competitive advantage, and explores how IT is used to achieve enterprise goals. You will learn the strategic role of IT; how IT is used in both enterprise operations for cost control and reduction, and in market intelligence and marketing for competitive positioning and revenue enhancement. You will also learn to develop IT strategy and, through the use of case studies, how to determine the return-on-investment for IT systems. Since IT systems are based on complex network-based systems, special attention is given to the international aspects of IT strategy in the design and deployment of these systems. Co-requisite: ITM 300.

3.00 Credits
Introduces you to the architecture of the Internet and World Wide Web. You will learn the history of the Internet, the server-client paradigm, HTML (hypertext markup language), website design and organization, HTTP (hypertext transfer protocol), TCP/IP, CGI (common gateway interface), server- and client-side program and script deployment, web server installation and configuration, and necessary Unix skills. After completing this course, you will have a working knowledge of the architecture of a web site and a familiarity with the architecture and structure of the Internet and its basic services. You will also have an introductory knowledge of basic features and concepts related to the Internet and World Wide Web, with an emphasis specific to WWW site design, creation and maintenance. Special emphasis will be placed on Extensible Mark-Up Language (XML). Co-requisite: ITM 300.

3.00 Credits
Introduces the computer programming language Statistical Analytical System (SAS) in a hands-on course. Oriented towards beginners to SAS. SAS is used by many Fortune 1000 companies in the US, and in other prominent businesses around the world. Students from all majors can take this course. We will make extensive use of a computer lab. Students with access to a computer (Mac or PC compatible), a modem and an Internet account from a private Internet provider will able to access the SAS system available in the Golden Gate University computer network from remote sites for assignments and projects. We will make extensive use of electronic mail for communication among students and the instructor. Topics will include the programming logic to produce an SAS program, working with temporary and permanent SAS files, using built-in procedures and functions, producing simple and complex reports, building SAS business applications and using the UNIX operating system. Co-requisite: ITM 300.

3.00 Credits
Explores the use of computers employing artificial intelligence and "machine learning" techniques to discover previously unknown andpotentially useful information from a data set. You will learn basic theoretical concepts and practical techniques for data mining. Topics will include overview of data mining, applications of data mining, data preparation, defining a study, introduction to the use of neural networks for classification studies (supervised learning) and clustering studies (unsupervised learning), interpreting model results, and data visualization techniques. Class projects will include the hands-on use of one or more data-mining software packages. Prerequisites: ITM 304 and MATH 40.
