Suppose Bob joins a BitTorrent torrent, but he does not want to upload any data to any other peers (so called free-riding). a. Bob claims that he can receive a complete copy of the file that is shared by the swarm. Is Bob's claim possible? Why or why not? b. Bob further claims that he can further make his "free-riding" more efficient by using a collection of multiple computers (with distinct IP addresses) in the computer lab in his department. How can he do that?

There are 2 best friends and they both jumped into the crowd. Chris Martin points to N number of followers one at a time. Imagine endless fans arranged with a 2D infinte grid, with each follower standing at each step in an orderly fashion. Chris gives them directions in the form of an S unit and they follow blindly. As a result, few fans appear with more than one T-shirt. They start at the same place (bring two T-shirts to the same starting fan), and take turns based on orders from Chris, who gives them orders as follows: U- Move up the stairs, D - Go Down one step, L- Go Left one step, R - Go Right one step Given the S-let unit of the instructions given to Chris. Which brings out the number of lucky fans who have received at least one T-Shirt using java code. Input: 2 UD Output: 3
blockchain is a collection ofrecords (called blocks), where each block links to the previous block using cryptography. Eachblock contains cryptographic hash, timestamp and data relevant to its application. Think ofit as a distributed ledger where instead of information being stored in a database it is storedon the blockchain. Some examples of solutions that use a blockchain at its core are:1. Cryptocurrencies (however, for this project you may NOT do a cryptocurrency)2. Smart contracts3. Trading4. Supply chain management5. Anti-counterfeiting6. Healthcare7. Domain names8. Proof of existence9. Voting10. and many others! Programming Language: Java The use of third-party libraries for primary functionally is strictly prohibited, however, third party libraries can be used for other functionality such as communications and visualisation (such as normal JavaFX, JFreeChart, GraphStream, JGraphT, Yworks, JUNG or JMonkey). The use of other data structures for auxiliary operations is…
Suppose that x and y are vectors in R with length(x) = 13 and length(y) = 6. After executing the command z <- rep(c(rep(x, each = 2), rep(y, each = 3)), times = 4) which of the following must be true? z[113] ==y[5] O z[113] = x[3] == O z[113] ==y[1] O z[113] == x[13] O z[113] ==y[3]
Determine the security flaws that are present in each method of authentication, then provide a solution to the problem that is described below:Bob makes a hash of a password, and then he checks it against a database of previously hashed passwords.Bob runs a password via a hashing algorithm and then checks it against a database of passwords that have been hashed twice.
Suppose a public-key cryptosystem encrypts integers (say, modulo another integer n). Show that if this scheme has the property that Dec(Enc(x) · Enc(y)) = x + y for any messages x, y, then the scheme is necessarily vulnerable to a CCA2 attack.
After Elon Musk decided to make a new business idea. He found a social network called "Friends.com". It has currently N registered users. Likewise in any social network many users can be friends. Elon Musk wants the world to be as super connected as possible, so he has this new way to suggest friendship to some pairs of users. He suggests user u to have a friendship with user v if they are not friends yet and there is a user w who is friends of both of them. Note that u, v and w are different users. Elon Musk is too busy with SpaceX these days, so he hired you to develop a Python program to count out how many friendship suggestions he has to send over his social network "Friends.com".

Suppose we have four machines that are using the Berkeley algorithm for clock synchronization. The time daemon is running on machine MO. The other machines are named M1, M2, and M3. The time readings on the four machines are as follows wenty-four hour clocks are usedt. MO 09:10 M1: 08:30 M2 10:10 M3: 07:14 In the third step of the algorithm, what are the values that the time daemon sends to each machine? Assume that the time values are expressed in minutes. Below, these values are presented in a vector value sent to MO, value sent to MI, value sent to M2. value sent to M3I none of these O84, 44, 96, 321 O(24, 16, -84, 92) O192. 84, 16. -24 O-32, 76, 40
