Explanation of Solution

Reaction in buying the system:

  • The main problem with the benchmarks is that they are very simple that the manufactures are able to optimize their products in a way it is capable to meet their requirements based on the benchmarks derived.
  • Thus, it would be very difficult for its user to obtain a decision because product will be available in the market without any differentiation.
  • In order to make the benchmarks more meaningful and comprehensive, the consortium of computer manufactures created a magazine where the technology are being brought together in the form of SPEC(Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation) in 1988.
  • Performance will be major criteria for the end user of the CPU’s and the performance measures are being benefited through the benchmarks that are constructed by the SPEC.
  • Another class of end user whose major area of concern could be the software that are widely applied in server that are used in processing multiple transactions at a particular amount of time by different users.
  • The users are very much interested with the system that is capable of processing short tasks simultaneously.
  • Standardizing the analysis of the performance measure of advanced system troubled the manufacturers greatly.
  • The results that are produced were being flashed at instant among the potential customers but the output that is provided is not meant for the public user...

If a UDP datagram is sent from host A, port P to host B, port Q, but at host B there is no process listening to port Q, then B is to send back an ICMP Port Unreachable message to A. Like all ICMP messages, this is addressed to A as a whole, not to port P on A. (a)  Give an example of when an application might want to receive such ICMP messages. (b)  Find out what an application has to do, on the operating system of your choice, to receive such messages. (c)  Why might it not be a good idea to send such messages directly back to the originating port P on A?

This week we will be building a regression model conceptually for our discussion assignment. Consider your current workplace (or previous/future workplace if not currently working) and answer the following set of questions. Expand where needed to help others understand your thinking:  What is the most important factor (variable) that needs to be predicted accurately at work? Why? Justify its selection as your dependent variable.
