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...

I cannot program smart home automation rules from my device using a computer or phone, and I would like to know how to properly connect devices such as switches and sensors together ? Cisco Packet Tracer 1. Smart Home Automation:o Connect a temperature sensor and a fan to a home gateway.o Configure the home gateway so that the fan is activated when the temperature exceedsa set threshold (e.g., 30°C).2. WiFi Network Configuration:o Set up a wireless LAN with a unique SSID.o Enable WPA2 encryption to secure the WiFi network.o Implement MAC address filtering to allow only specific clients to connect.3. WLC Configuration:o Deploy at least two wireless access points connected to a Wireless LAN Controller(WLC).o Configure the WLC to manage the APs, broadcast the configured SSID, and applyconsistent security settings across all APs.
using r language for integration theta = integral 0 to infinity (x^4)*e^(-x^2)/2 dx (1) use the density function of standard normal distribution N(0,1) f(x) = 1/sqrt(2pi) * e^(-x^2)/2 -infinity <x<infinity as importance function and obtain an estimate theta 1 for theta set m=100 for the estimate whatt is the estimate theta 1? (2)use the density function of gamma (r=5 λ=1/2)distribution f(x)=λ^r/Γ(r) x^(r-1)e^(-λx) x>=0 as importance function and obtain an estimate theta 2 for theta set m=1000 fir the estimate what is the estimate theta2? (3) use simulation (repeat 1000 times) to estimate the variance of the estimates theta1 and theta 2 which one has smaller variance?
using r language A continuous random variable X has density function f(x)=1/56(3x^2+4x^3+5x^4).0<=x<=2 (1) secify the density g of the random variable Y you find for the acceptance rejection method. (2) what is the value of c you choose to use for the acceptance rejection method (3) use the acceptance rejection method to generate a random sample of size 1000 from the distribution of X .graph the density histogram of the sample and compare it with the density function f(x)
