Program Plan Intro

IP addresses:

  • The IP address denotes an unsigned integer that is 32-bit.
  • The IP addresses is been stored by network programs in IP address structure.
  • The addresses present in IP address structure are stored in network byte order.
  •  An unsigned 32-bit integer is transformed from host byte order to network byte order by “htonl” function.
  • An unsigned 32-bit integer is transformed from network byte order host byte order by “ntohl” function.
  • The IP address is presented to humans in a form known as “dotted-decimal” notation.
    • Each byte is been represented by its corresponding decimal value and is separated by a period from other bytes.

Passing program arguments to server:

  • The arguments for “GET” requests are passed in the URI.
  • The character “?” separates filename from the arguments.
  • The character “&” separates each argument.
  • The arguments do not allow spaces in it.

Server passes arguments to child:

  • The server calls “fork” to create a child process and calls “execve” to run program in child’s context once it receives a request.
  • The child process sets CGI environment variable values.
  • The “adder” program can reference it at run time using “getenv” function of linux.

Output is sent by child:

  • The dynamic content of a CGI program is to be sent to standard output.
  • A CGI program sends dynamic content to standard output.
  • It uses “dup2” function for redirecting standard output to connected descriptor associated with client.
  • The result written to standard output by CGI program, it goes directly to client.

Objective: 1. Implement a custom Vector class in C++ that manages dynamic memory efficiently. 2. Demonstrate an understanding of the Big Five by managing deep copies, move semantics, and resource cleanup. 3. Explore the performance trade-offs between heap and stack allocation. Task Description: Part 1: Custom Vector Implementation 1. Create a Vector class that manages a dynamically allocated array. 。 Member Variables: ° T✶ data; // Dynamically allocated array for storage. std::size_t size; // Number of elements currently in the vector. std::size_t capacity; // Maximum number of elements before reallocation is required. 2. Implement the following core member functions: Default Constructor: Initialize an empty vector with no allocated storage. 。 Destructor: Free any dynamically allocated memory. 。 Copy Constructor: Perform a deep copy of the data array. 。 Copy Assignment Operator: Free existing resources and perform a deep copy. Move Constructor: Transfer ownership of the data array…
2.68♦♦ Write code for a function with the following prototype: * Mask with least signficant n bits set to 1 * Examples: n = 6 -> 0x3F, n = 17-> 0x1FFFF * Assume 1 <= n <= w int lower_one_mask (int n); Your function should follow the bit-level integer coding rules Be careful of the case n = W.
Hi-Volt Components You are the IT manager at Hi-Voltage Components, a medium-sized firm that makes specialized circuit boards. Hi-Voltage's largest customer, Green Industries, recently installed a computerized purchasing sys- tem. If Hi-Voltage connects to the purchasing system, Green Industries will be able to submit purchase orders electronically. Although Hi-Voltage has a computerized accounting system, that system is not capable of handling EDI. Tasks 1. What options does Hi-Voltage have for developing a system to connect with Green Industries' pur- chasing system? 2. What terms or concepts describe the proposed computer-to-computer relationship between Hi-Voltage and Green Industries? why not? 3. Would Hi-Voltage's proposed new system be a transaction processing system? Why or 4. Before Hi-Voltage makes a final decision, should the company consider an ERP system? Why or why not?
