Program Plan Intro

Parity bit:

Parity bit is a simplest form of error detection code.

  • A bit added to the end of a string of binary code is called as parity bit. It is otherwise called check bit.
  • This parity bit indicates whether the number of bits in the binary code with the value 1 is even or odd.
    • If the binary code contains even number of 1, it is referred to as even parity.
    • If the binary code contains odd number of 1, it is referred to as odd parity.
  • There are two types of parity bits:
    • Even parity bit
    • Odd parity bit

Even parity bit:

  • Even parity bit is set to 1, if the count of one’s in a given binary code is odd without including the parity bit.
  • Otherwise, it is set to 0, if the count of one’s in a given binary code is even.

Simulate on a vertical time axis (with events labeled with the senders names A-D) the contention period of FOUR equally distanced Ethernet stations that all attempt to transmit at T=0 a minimally sized frame, in the style of the binary Exponential Backoff Algorithm. 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. Start be writing the ID, which is 904012207 As example of the expected answer format,  with the random sequence R:   100101010101001011001010 01 01011  10010 1010 1010 010…
Big State University The Big State University course catalog reads as follows: "To enroll in MIS 260, which is an advanced course, a student must complete two prerequisites: MIS 120 and MIS 222. A student who completes either one of these prerequisites and obtains the instructor's permission, however, will be allowed to take MIS 260." Tasks 1. Create a decision table that describes the Big State University course catalog regarding eligibility for MIS 260. Show all possible rules. 2. Simplify the table you just created. Describe the results. 3. Draw a simplified decision tree to represent the Big State University catalog. Describe the results. 4. Why might you use a decision tree rather than a decision table?
