Explanation of Solution

When a project is planned, milestones need to be defined. Milestones are associated with a single task or with a group of related tasks. The independent tasks are carried out parallel. A task which is dependent on another task is performed after that particular task is complete.

Bar Chart:

The bar chart that shows the project schedule is given below.

Explanation:

  • The time duration taken by the task T1 is 10.
  • Task T2 starts after task T1 completes because task T2 depends on task T1 and it will take time duration of 15 and is indicated as a milestone M1.
  • Task T3 starts after task T2 completes because task T3 depends on task T1 and T2 and it will take time duration of 10 and is indicated as a milestone M2.
  • Task T4 does not have any dependencies. So it will start at the beginning of the project by taking time duration of 20.
  • Task T5 also does not have any dependencies. So it will start at the beginning of the project by taking time duration of 10.
  • Task T6 starts after task T3 completes because task T6 depends on task T3 and T4 and it will take time duration of 15 and is indicated as a milestone M3.
  • Task T7 starts after task T3 completes because task T7 depends on task T3 and it will take time duration of 20 and is indicated as a milestone M4...

Objective: 1. Implement a custom Vector class in C++ that manages dynamic memory efficiently. 2. Demonstrate an understanding of the Big Five by managing deep copies, move semantics, and resource cleanup. 3. Explore the performance trade-offs between heap and stack allocation. Task Description: Part 1: Custom Vector Implementation 1. Create a Vector class that manages a dynamically allocated array. 。 Member Variables: ° T✶ data; // Dynamically allocated array for storage. std::size_t size; // Number of elements currently in the vector. std::size_t capacity; // Maximum number of elements before reallocation is required. 2. Implement the following core member functions: Default Constructor: Initialize an empty vector with no allocated storage. 。 Destructor: Free any dynamically allocated memory. 。 Copy Constructor: Perform a deep copy of the data array. 。 Copy Assignment Operator: Free existing resources and perform a deep copy. Move Constructor: Transfer ownership of the data array…
2.68♦♦ Write code for a function with the following prototype: * Mask with least signficant n bits set to 1 * Examples: n = 6 -> 0x3F, n = 17-> 0x1FFFF * Assume 1 <= n <= w int lower_one_mask (int n); Your function should follow the bit-level integer coding rules Be careful of the case n = W.
Hi-Volt Components You are the IT manager at Hi-Voltage Components, a medium-sized firm that makes specialized circuit boards. Hi-Voltage's largest customer, Green Industries, recently installed a computerized purchasing sys- tem. If Hi-Voltage connects to the purchasing system, Green Industries will be able to submit purchase orders electronically. Although Hi-Voltage has a computerized accounting system, that system is not capable of handling EDI. Tasks 1. What options does Hi-Voltage have for developing a system to connect with Green Industries' pur- chasing system? 2. What terms or concepts describe the proposed computer-to-computer relationship between Hi-Voltage and Green Industries? why not? 3. Would Hi-Voltage's proposed new system be a transaction processing system? Why or 4. Before Hi-Voltage makes a final decision, should the company consider an ERP system? Why or why not?
