Explanation of Solution

Research on Automated Irrigation System:

Landscape plants do not require water daily.

Outdoor water can be reduced by using irrigation only when orange groves need water.

Irrigation is the only choice for supplying water at needed intervals.

It can decrease the expenses, as water is needed only at a particular interval.

The amount of water needed is changing with the season hence a controller that can easily adjust for season, is needed to save considerable amount of water.

Water content in a soil is measured by Soil Moisture Sensor which is a tool used to determine when the irrigation is needed.

Rain sensor is used to detect the rainfall and it is inexpensive.

It is also used in preventing the irrigation system during rainfall.

It should be located in a place that should not be covered by building eaves and it should not have irrigation water.

Drip Irrigation method is used; the root region of the tree is collected the water directly hence the work of land leveling is reduced.

Every irrigation system can be automated with the help of sensors, timers and other appliances.

The amount of water needed depends upon the plants and root system.

The cost for purchasing, installing and maintaining equipment is not more than the cost for traditional cultivation. Therefore it reduces the expenses...

I need help in construct a matlab code to find the voltage, the currents, and the watts based on that circuit.

Objective Implement Bottom-Up Iterative MergeSort and analyze its efficiency compared to recursive MergeSort. Unlike the recursive approach, which involves multiple function calls and stack overhead, the bottom-up version sorts iteratively by merging small subarrays first, reducing recursion depth and improving performance. Task 1. Implement Bottom-Up Iterative MergeSort о Start with single-element subarrays and iteratively merge them into larger sorted sections. Use a loop-based merging process instead of recursion. ○ Implement an efficient in-place merging strategy if possible. 2. Performance Analysis Compare execution time with recursive MergeSort on random, nearly sorted, and reversed datasets. ○ Measure and plot time complexity vs. input size. O Submission Explain why the iterative version reduces function call overhead and when it performs better. • Code implementation with comments. • A short report (1-2 pages) comparing performance. • Graph of execution time vs. input size for…

Given a shared data set, we allow multiple readers to read at the same time, and only one single writer can access the shared data at the same time. In the lecture slides, a solution is given. However, the problem is that the write cannot write forever, if there are always at least one reader. How to ensure that the writer can eventually write? Propose your solution by using semaphores and implemented in Python from threading import Thread, Semaphore from time import sleep from sys import stdout class Reader(Thread): def__init__(self, name): self.n=name; Thread.__init__(self) defrun(self): globalnr, nw, dr, dw whileTrue: # ⟨await nw == 0 then nr += 1⟩ e.acquire() ifnw>0: #if nw > 0 or dw > 0 : dr+=1; e.release(); r.acquire() nr+=1 ifdr>0: dr-=1; r.release() else: e.release() # read data stdout.write(self.n+' reading\n') sleep(1) # ⟨nr -= 1⟩ e.acquire() nr-=1 ifnr==0anddw>0: dw-=1 ; w.release() else: e.release() class Writer(Thread): def__init__(self, name):…
