Explanation of Solution

Basic form of the SQL SELECT command:

The basic form of the SQL SELECT command is given below:

Basic form: SELECT-FROM-WHERE

Explanation:

  • The SQL SELECT command is used to retrieve given values in a database.
  • From the given basic form,
    • After user type the word “SELECT”, user list the columns that they want to include in the query results.
    • Next, user type the word “FROM” followed by table name that have the data user need to query.
    • Finally, user can list conditions that apply to the data they want to retrieve after the word “WHERE”.

It is possible to sort an array of n values using pipeline of n filter processes.The first process inputs all the values one at a time, keep the minimum, and passes the others on to the next process. Each filter does the same thing; it receives a stream of values from the previous process, keep the smallest, and passes the others to the next process. Assume each process has local storage for only two values--- the next input value and the minimum it has seen so far. (a) Developcode for filter processes. Declare the channels and use asynchronous message passing. Hint:Define an array of channels value[n] (int), and a set of filter processes Filter[i = 0 ton-1]. Each process Filter[i] (where 0 <= i <= n-2) receives a stream of integers through channelvalue[i], keeps the smallest, and sends all other integers to channel value[i+1]. The last processFilter[n-1] receives only one integer through channel value[n-1] and does not need to send anyinteger further.

I need help: Challenge: Assume that the assigned network addresses are correct. Can you deduce (guess) what the network subnet masks are?  Explain while providing subnet mask bits for each subnet mask.  [Hint:  Look at the addresses in binary and consider the host ids]
