A.

Explanation of Solution

Analysis from given section:

For variable instance “ptr”:

  • For main thread:
    • From the given code, the variable “ptr” is a global variable.
    • It is written by the main thread.
  • For peer thread 0 and thread 1:
    • The variable “ptr” is read by the peer threads.

For variable instance “cnt”:

  • For main thread:
    • From the given code, the variable “cnt” is a static variable and it is contains with only one instance in memory. Hence, it is not exist in the main thread.
  • For peer thread 0 and thread 1:
    • The variable “cnt” is read and written by the peer threads.

For variable instance “i.m”:

  • For main thread:
    • From the given code, the variable “i.m” is a local automatic variable.
    • It is stored on the stack of the main thread. Hence, this variable is exist in the main thread.
  • For peer thread 0 and thread 1:
    • The given variable is stored on the main thread, while its corresponding value is passed to the peer threads, the peer threads never place it on the stack. So, it is not shared.

For variable instance “msgs.m”:

  • For main thread:
    • From the given code, the variable “msgs.m” is a local automatic variable.
    • It is stored on the stack of the main thread. Hence, it is exist in the main thread.
  • For peer thread 0 and thread 1:
    • The given variable is stored on the main thread...

From the following mass-spring system, obtain its transfer function and pole-zero diagram in MATLAB. Analyze how stability varies when entering values. wwwww R -0000 e(t) i(t) e(t) is the input variable, and the voltage across the capacitor is the controlled variable.
Conduct a comprehensive study on Botnet networks, focusing on their architecture and functionality. Provide a detailed analysis of their control mechanisms via C2 (Command and Control) structures, and classify the different types of Botnets (centralized, decentralized, hybrid). Explain their primary uses in offensive contexts and discuss the evolution of detection and mitigation techniques in light of technological advancements in cybersecurity. Additional Note: Design a complete Botnet simulator using Python programming, including both the C2 server and the bot client. Demonstrate how the bots connect to the server, and how commands are sent and received between them.
