Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 2.9, Problem 2.9ARQ
Explanation of Solution
Impact of free data storage and data communications on collaboration systems:
- In collaboration systems, there are many users and the each user produces some share of data and all this information should be stored in some storage area. Free data storage allows to store more information about the project.
- In collaboration systems it is not necessary that all the team members are present in person to work in a collaborative manner, so it is necessary to communicate the data like the edited files, task lists and other requirements of project to each and every member of the team.
Face to face communication:
- In face to face communication each and every team member needs to be present at the same place to conduct a meeting or any discussion, which is not convenient in many situations as it takes time and costs a lot.
- For example, if one of the team members is in Australia and has to attend a meeting in India then it will take time and even the flight and other travel expenses are to be considered.
- Similarly if people stuck in traffic, burning the fuel in the vehicle and many such things leads to loss of time and money which can be avoided by avoiding face to face meetings.
Today, where technologies like augmented reality and 3D applications are booming in the industrial market, it is predicted that there will be a time when workers will be using these technologies in each and aspect of their work. This will reduce the cost and time loss which was experienced in face to face meetings as augmented reality and 3D applications are going to make it possible for workers to holographically collaborate in face to face meetings from places around the world. In this technology, few objects are real and others are holograms, which will reduce the costs.
Holoportation:
From the time when Microsoft has demonstrated about holoportation to the people, they have been slowly understanding about the 3D holographic representations of other people.
- In this technology, a person can hear or see everything the other person does as if he/she is physically present in front of them.
- However, in reality the person may be present in some other place located in some other town or even in some other country, and is holoporting to work.
- By using this technology, virtual collaboration can be facilitated which will reduce the cost of travel and loss of time...

The Test-and-Set instruction is used in hardware to achieve synchronization. It can be defined in the following way: function Test-and-Set (var target: boolean): boolean; begin Test-and-Set:= target; target := true; end; Now show how the Test-and-Set instruction can be used to protect a critical region and hence achieve mutual exclusion (do not worry about satisfying the bounded waiting condition).

But to roll and smoke a cigarette, the smoker needs three ingredients: tobacco, paper and matches. One of the smoker processes has paper, another has tobacco and the third has the matches. The agent has an infinite supply of all three materials. The agent places two of the ingredients on the table. The smoker who has the remaining ingredient then makes and smokes a cigarette, signaling the agent on completion. The agent then puts out another two of the three ingredients, and the cycle repeats. Given below is a solution to the Cigarette-Smokers Problem. Give initial conditions for the semaphores as well as plausible values for the variables i & j and r & s, such that the agent and smokers are synchronized. Write a couple of sentences on why these initial conditions are necessary and sufficient. Solution: var a: array [0..2] of semaphore (initial condition =…arrow_forward
- Level-0 Diagram for this: A customer sends in an order form containing details of their order and their membership number. A check is made to verify that they are a member. When their order is verified, a check is made to validate that the items ordered are produced by the company. Next, the valid order is used to update the daily order file, and then used to create a shipping list and invoice, which are sent on to the Order Fulfilment System.arrow_forwardIn this assignment, you will use all of the graphics commands you have learned to create an animated scene.
