Explanation of Solution
Changes made by information technology in America’s Cup boats:
In older times, the America’s Cup race were done on single-hulled sailboats which is 70-foot range serving an average speed of 10 miles per hour.
- In 2010, $300 million were spending to change the infrastructure and internal functioning of the boat. It is changed to three-hulled catamaran made of carbon fiber which resembles as the aircraft wings.
- In 2013, the boats were modified to 72-foot, twin-hull catamarans which has an average speed of 50 miles per hour which is meant as one of the fastest sailboats.
The newly constructed sailboats needs lightning-fast collection of massive amounts of data, effective data management, faster real time data analysis, faster decision making in to take the immediate actions...

Assume that time is measured in slot times, and that exactly one slot time is needed to detect a collision (so that if two stations transmit at T=1 and collide, and one of them chooses a backoff time k=0, then that station will transmit again at T=2). Use as coin flip (source of randomness) an ID written in binary. use the bits in order from the least significant to the most significant. If for a given coin throw you need k bits, use the least significant ID bit extracted in the corresponding group of bits, as the least significant bit of the coin thrown.
