Chapter 3, Problem 3RQ

Explanation of Solution

Quality:

  • Quality is considered as the form of differentiation with the product or the service that is provided.
  • Quality can be defined based on the customer perspective and the producer perspective.

Definition of quality based on the producer:

It greatly means in conformance with the specification or the absence of variation that is present with the specification.

Definition of quality based on the customer:

  • The customer is concerned with the quality that is present with the physical product.
  • The quality of the product deals with the durability, safety, usability and quick installation...

Explanation of Solution

Ways through which the quality can be improved with the information system:

The information system can improve the quality in the following ways:

  • The product or service and the production process are being simplified.
    • The steps that occur fewer in a process takes less time and chances of an error to occur is lowered.
  • Simplifying the benchmarking.
    • Fixing a proper set of standards for the products, service and other process that occurs and measuring the performance based on the standards that are fixed as before.
  • The products and services are improved based on the customer demands.
    • Improving the services of the customer and making to be number one in priority and based on that the quality of the product will get improved by itself.
  • Product development life cycle is reduced
    • When the cycle time is shorter, then the problems can be caught at the early stages of the process where the production of defective products means to be completed...

You are working with a database table that contains customer data. The table includes columns about customer location such as city, state, and country. You want to retrieve the first 3 letters of each country name. You decide to use the SUBSTR function to retrieve the first 3 letters of each country name, and use the AS command to store the result in a new column called new_country.  You write the SQL query below. Add a statement to your SQL query that will retrieve the first 3 letters of each country name and store the result in a new column as new_country.
We are considering the RSA encryption scheme. The involved numbers are small, so the communication is insecure.  Alice's public key (n,public_key) is (247,7). A code breaker manages to factories  247 = 13 x 19  Determine Alice's secret key. To solve the problem, you need not use the extended Euclid algorithm, but you may assume that her private key is one of the following numbers 31,35,55,59,77,89.
Consider the following Turing Machine (TM). Does the TM halt if it begins on the empty tape? If it halts, after how many steps? Does the TM halt if it begins on a tape that contains a single letter A followed by blanks? Justify your answer.
