Faster Computing has contacted Go2Linux and requested a brief proposal presentation for migrating its systems from Windows to Linux.

The company is specifically interested in seeing the following information:

(10.1.1: Identify the problem to be solved.)

Based on your current understanding of Faster Computing's business, what are some potential benefits of Linux?

The company is aware that many different Linux derivatives exist. Be very specific and choose only one version (e.g., Ubuntu, Mint, Zorin, Redhat, CentOS, Kali). Which would Go2Linux recommend, and why? Give specific reasons for your choice (e.g., security features, support, updates, user interface). (10.1.2: Gather project requirements to meet stakeholder needs.)

What steps will be required to migrate the systems from Windows to Linux? Are there graphical interfaces available for the Linux workstations that would provide similar functionality to Windows? Some users are concerned about working with a command-line interface. (10.1.3: Define the specifications of required technologies.)

What tools are available on Linux for the servers to provide file sharing, Linux services, and printing? (e.g., Apache/Nginx, Samba, CUPS, SSH/SCP). Ensure you identify what the functions/services are used for (e.g., Samba is used for file sharing).

(1.1.3: Present ideas in a clear, logical order appropriate to the task.)

The deliverable for this phase of the project is a three- to five-slide PowerPoint narrated presentation.

An introductory slide A summary slide Voice narration on every slide For each slide, you will embed your own audio recording as if you were presenting the content to the Faster Computing team. Faster Computing has not yet committed to the project, so this should be presented as a proposal. The presentation should be visually appealing; the inclusion of at least one image that supports the content and adds value to the proposal is required.

(1.3.3: Integrate appropriate credible sources to illustrate and validate ideas.)

You must cite at least two quality sources.

You used at least 2 references and your references were cited properly following an accepted style. Ask your instructor for clarification.

Use the Migration Proposal Presentation template to get started.

(2.3.1: State conclusions or solutions clearly and precisely.)

You should present your proposal as if you are selling to the company. Revisit all of these important reasons in the summary slide.

How Will My Work Be Evaluated?

As you progress in your IT career, you may find yourself making presentations to customers, client audiences, and professional peers. By creating an effective presentation, you are showing how you use your technical knowledge and convey your ideas to others in a professional setting, an important workplace skill.

The following evaluation criteria aligned to the competencies will be used to grade your assignment:

1.1.3: Present ideas in a clear, logical order appropriate to the task.

1.3.3: Integrate appropriate credible sources to illustrate and validate ideas.

2.3.1: State conclusions or solutions clearly and precisely.

10.1.1: Identify the problem to be solved. Simulation of oil and gas operations. VR provides the user with an immersive experience when it creates 3D simulations of real-world environments. Simulation of real-world scenarios provides data on important parameters of oil and gas operations, which can be useful for preliminary assessment of the effectiveness of various processes. VR allows companies to cr'eate a digital twin to replicate the performance of an oil field, refinery, or any other operating unit on a virtual platform. This helps to minimize the risks and costs associated with implementing a new process in oil and gas operations. Analysis of the surface of oil fields. VR plays an important role in the creation of 3D images of underground geological structures. VR can simulate underground reservoirs, structural faults and other geological formations to create 3D digital models. This SHS Web of Conferences 84, 03003 (2020) Circumpolar Studies 2020 https://doi.org/10.1051/shsconf/20208403003 2 technology helps geologists, geophysicists and engineers better understand topography to identify potential hydrocarbon reserves and accurately plan drilling operations. Testing and verification of processes. VR is used to improve the efficiency of inspection and maintenance through data-driven modeling. This technology helps integrate historical data with real-time information to identify service requirements and guide technicians to the tasks that must be completed to prevent impending disruption. This includes step-by-step instructions for finding the defective part and repairing or replacing it, which minimizes the time required for maintenance work. Product design and manufacturing. VR offers new opportunities in product development. Digital designs that are modeled with 3D rendering are checked for results even before they reach the production stage. VR integrated with 3D printing can develop multiple prototypes at fast speed. VR technology reduces lead times for critical oil and gas equipment development by accelerating the product design process. Disaster management using virtual reality. Field technicians in the oil and gas industry operate in harsh environments and are exposed to hazardous gases and chemicals. VR has the potential to train employees in emergency response by simulating real-world scenarios. A digital twin with VR. Connected devices and the Internet of Things (IoT) are transforming oil and gas operations across the value chain. Companies are connecting sensors to equipment and infrastructure to gather as much data as possible about plant performance to improve visibility and decision making. The digital twin is one such use case for the IoT that allows companies to visualize an enterprise in an immersive environment using virtual reality. It reproduces production processes in a virtual world and helps to identify potential problem areas and develop plans to overcome them Immersive technologies are an effective tool for training employees and developing their soft-skills and hard skills. This is confirmed by a number of successful foreign and domestic practices of using virtual reality for educational purposes. VR simulators and simulations make it possible to increase employee involvement in the training process, reduce training costs, scale educational programs, etc. At the moment, not all Russian companies are ready to implement virtual reality technologies in employee training, for which there are a number of reasons, among which it is worth noting the following: insufficient level of digitalization of the enterprise, unpreparedness for large investments, and insufficient awareness of modern technologies. However, immersive technologies continue to evolve and become more and more accessible, which may lead to the digitalization of corporate education in general, and the wider use of MR / VR / AR technologies in personnel training in particular. VR / AR technologies can be used by both highly professional specialists and workers. With the use of augmented reality, it will be possible to instantly receive diagrams and electronic instructions for the equipment of oil facilities, to warn of possible breakdowns without the need to use paper-based documentation. The employee can get acquainted with the video information displayed as a supplement to reality, graphic or textual information, to a certain physical object. These can be step-by-step instructions for repair, fixing indicators and characteristics of oil equipment, a description of its purpose. In addition, using augmented reality, you can determine at what stage the task is completed, receive data online, without interrupting the workflow.
