Chapter 3, Problem 6E
Program Plan Intro

Transistor

  • A transistor is a semiconductor device for amplifying or switching electric signals and electric power.
  • It is composed of semiconductor material with three terminals for connecting to the external circuit.
  • A transistor can amplify a signal since the controlled or output power is higher than the controlling or input power.

Dijkstra's Algorithm (part 1).  Consider the network shown below, and Dijkstra’s link-state algorithm. Here, we are interested in computing the least cost path from node E (note: the start node here is E) to all other nodes using Dijkstra's algorithm. Using the algorithm statement used in the textbook and its visual representation, complete the "Step 0" row in the table below showing the link state algorithm’s execution by matching the table entries (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) with their values.  Write down your final [correct] answer, as you‘ll need it for the next question.
