Chapter 25, Problem 25.1E

Explanation of Solution

Problems:

The problem that could arise when a company does not develop effective configuration management policies and processes are as follows:

  • It is not possible to create new versions of software systems effectively as they change. As well as it is not possible for the developers to keep track of the changes to the software.
  • It is difficult to control the costs and effort involved in making changes to a system.
  • There may be chances to forget the storage place of the software source code for a particular version. In some cases, wrong version of a system may be delivered to the customers.
  • Configuration management is seen as a part of a more general quality management process which results in ineffective quality management process.
  • If some one is leaving the company, then it is very difficult to protect investments in software, and to reproduce a build with the correct component or continue development.

Finally, your going to write several small javascript functions to practice with javascript core programming (basically just using javascript as a normal scripting language). For each section you can hardcode input values, and all output should go to console (we'll worry about the actual web page on Assignment 4). You can complete these all in one HTML file, or create one file for each part.
Write a C program to calculate the checksum for a given line of an IntelHex file. To get full points, you must be able to explain to the instructor the individual parts of the IntelHex line (see below), as well as any part of your code. Definition:The checksum is calculated as the two's complement of the sum of the individual bytes from the beginning of the line to the checksum. Example:If you enter this string: :10010000214601360121470136007EFE09D21901XX You should get a checksum of 40 instead of XX. Demonstrate the completion of the task by calculating checksums, for example, for the following strings: :100010000C9445000C9445000C9445000C944500xx:100020000C9445000C9445000C9445000C944500xx:100030000C9445000C9445000C9445000C944500xx:100040000C9445000C9445000C9445000C944500xx
