  • An ESS helps to enhance decision making for executives.
  • ESS is also known as Executive Information System (EIS).

Write a program that reads a list of 10 integers, and outputs those integers in reverse. For coding simplicity, follow each output integer by a space, including the last one. Then, output a newline. Ex: If the input is: 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 the output is: 20 18 16 14 12 10 8 642 To achieve the above result, first read the integers into an array. Then output the array in reverse. 623802 1031906 nx3zmv7.
6.3B-2. Multiple Access protocols (2). Consider the figure below, which shows the arrival of 6 messages for transmission at different multiple access nodes at times t=0.1, 0.8, 1.35, 2.6, 3.9, 4.2. Each transmission requires exactly one time unit. 1 2 3 4 t=0.0 t=1.0 t=2.0 t=3.0 5 6 t=4.0 t=5.0 For the slotted ALOHA protocol, indicate which packets are successfully transmitted. You can assume that if a packet experiences a collision, a node will not attempt a retransmission of that packet until sometime after t=5. 1 2 3 4 5 K
