Chapter 13, Problem 3E

a.

Explanation of Solution

Explanation:

  • In asynchronous parallel Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) data transfer method, each phase of data transfer is allotted with fixed time.
  • If the floppy disk is removed during the data transmission, then the error may be occurred in any phase of data transfer.
    • Bus free: The bus is said to be in “bus free” state if the data transmission is completed. By removing the target, the floppy disk cannot free the bus. Hence, the error occurs in bus free phase.
    • Selection: The target on the bus includes the address of floppy disk and increases the SEL signal and decreases the BSY line. By removing the target, the BSY signal cannot be increased. Hence, the error occurs in selection phase.
    • Command: The change in the SEL signals doesn’t affect the command line, request signal and data transfer. Hence, the error occurs in command phase.
    • Data: The error occurred after the completion of data transmission doesn’t change the bus mode, command signal and input/output line...

3. Problem Description: Define the Circle2D class that contains: Two double data fields named x and y that specify the center of the circle with get methods. • A data field radius with a get method. • A no-arg constructor that creates a default circle with (0, 0) for (x, y) and 1 for radius. • A constructor that creates a circle with the specified x, y, and radius. • A method getArea() that returns the area of the circle. • A method getPerimeter() that returns the perimeter of the circle. • • • A method contains(double x, double y) that returns true if the specified point (x, y) is inside this circle. See Figure (a). A method contains(Circle2D circle) that returns true if the specified circle is inside this circle. See Figure (b). A method overlaps (Circle2D circle) that returns true if the specified circle overlaps with this circle. See the figure below. р O со (a) (b) (c)< Figure (a) A point is inside the circle. (b) A circle is inside another circle. (c) A circle overlaps another…
1. Explain in detail with examples each of the following fundamental security design principles: economy of mechanism, fail-safe default, complete mediation, open design, separation of privilege, least privilege, least common mechanism, psychological acceptability, isolation, encapsulation, modularity, layering, and least astonishment.
Security in general means the protection of an asset. In the context of computer and network security, explore and explain what assets must be protected within an online university. What the threats are to the security of these assets, and what countermeasures are available to mitigate and protect the organization from such threats. For each of the assets you identify, assign an impact level (low, moderate, or high) for the loss of confidentiality, availability, and integrity. Justify your answers.
