A)

Explanation of Solution

Systems Thinking:

System thinking is a management discipline which involves identifying and understanding the components of a system and modeling the system by connecting the input and output of the components.

Importance of Systems thinking to business professionals:

  • Business people often face situati...

B)

Explanation of Solution

Systems thinking and Moore’s law:

Moore’s Law:

Moore’s Law is coined by Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Intel Corporation, which states that the since the integral circuit has been invented, the number of transistors per square inch in it has been doubled every two years. As the computers are getting exponentially faster, the cost of data processing is approaching zero.

System thinking to explain the reasons for which the farmer digs up a field of pulpwood trees:

  • In the production of paper the input are the pulpwood trees...

C)

Explanation of Solution

Systems thinking with regard to consequences of Bell’s Law, Moore’s law or Metcalf’s Law:

Bell’s Law:

Bell’s Law is coined by Gordon Bell in 1972, which states that in every decade a new computer class is formed which establishes a new industry.

  • As said by Gordon Bell digital devices will be evolved very quickly and this will enable new platforms and industries in every 10 years, one can use system thinking to deduce that currently the market is run by products of smart phones, tablets and smart watches.
  • In next 10 years new wearable technological devices with implementation of augmented reality and virtual reality may rule the market.

Moore’s Law:

Moore’s Law is coined by Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Intel Corporation, which states that the since the integral circuit has been invented, the number of transistors per square inch in it has been doubled every two years. As the computers are getting exponentially faster, the cost of data processing is approaching zero...

Specifications: Part-1Part-1: DescriptionIn this part of the lab you will build a single operation ALU. This ALU will implement a bitwise left rotation. Forthis lab assignment you are not allowed to use Digital's Arithmetic components.IF YOU ARE FOUND USING THEM, YOU WILL RECEIVE A ZERO FOR LAB2!The ALU you will be implementing consists of two 4-bit inputs (named inA and inB) and one 4-bit output (named out). Your ALU must rotate the bits in inA by the amount given by inB (i.e. 0-15).Part-1: User InterfaceYou are provided an interface file lab2_part1.dig; start Part-1 from this file.NOTE: You are not permitted to edit the content inside the dotted lines rectangle.Part-1: ExampleIn the figure above, the input values that we have selected to test are inA = {inA_3, inA_2, inA_1, inA_0} = {0, 1, 0,0} and inB = {inB_3, inB_2, inB_1, inB_0} = {0, 0, 1, 0}. Therefore, we must rotate the bus 0100 bitwise left by00102, or 2 in base 10, to get {0, 0, 0, 1}. Please note that a rotation left is…
