In this assignment, you will be in the role of Mary Williams, the Senior Technology Consultant for Minnesota Consulting Group.
Amy Smith (project manager at MCG) has given you the following assignment:
* In the context of telecommunications standards and policy, prepare a 3-5-page white paper that describes current standards and policies that are relevant to MCG's work with Star Clothing.
* Include discussion of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology and Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) standards. ITIL standards are considered by many people to encompass telecommunications systems, so this should be included in your paper. Star Clothing has an increasing interest in standards regarding RFID, throughput and bandwidth for transactions between stores and the home office, and ITIL.
* The document should be comprehensive enough to serve as a general guide on emerging telecommunications standards.
* The main focus should be a guide to direct Star's technological philosophy and infrastructure practices.
* Outside research, supported with citations and references, is essential to demonstrate currency and relevance of this material for MCG's clients.
