Chapter 4, Problem 4.16RQ

Explanation of Solution

Cardinality:

Cardinality expresses the specific count of an entity instance of an entity. It may associate with two entities.

Note: An entity instance is an occurrence of a particular entity.

It can be divided into two types:

  • Maximum cardinality
  • Minimum cardinality

Maximum cardinality:

The maximum numbers of entity occurrences that participate in a relationship are termed as maximum cardinality.

The most items that can participate on either side of a relationship are defined as the maximum number in this cardinality.

It can be divided into three types is as follows:

  • One-to-One à An entity has one-to-one relationship with other entity.
  • One-to-Many à An entity has one-to-many relationships with other entity.
  • Many-to-Many à An entity have many-to-many relationships with other entity.

Minimum cardinality:

A minimum number of entity instances that can participate in a relationship are termed as a minimum cardinality.

The least items that can participate on either side of a relationship are defined as the minimum number in this cardinality...

Simulate on a vertical time axis (with events labeled with the senders names A-D) the contention period of FOUR equally distanced Ethernet stations that all attempt to transmit at T=0 a minimally sized frame, in the style of the binary Exponential Backoff Algorithm. Assume that time is measured in slot times, and that exactly one slot time is needed to detect a collision (so that if two stations transmit at T=1 and collide, and one of them chooses a backoff time k=0, then that station will transmit again at T=2). Use as coin flip (source of randomness) an ID written in binary. use the bits in order from the least significant to the most significant. If for a given coin throw you need k bits, use the least significant ID bit extracted in the corresponding group of bits, as the least significant bit of the coin thrown. Start be writing the ID, which is 904012207 As example of the expected answer format,  with the random sequence R:   100101010101001011001010 01 01011  10010 1010 1010 010…
Big State University The Big State University course catalog reads as follows: "To enroll in MIS 260, which is an advanced course, a student must complete two prerequisites: MIS 120 and MIS 222. A student who completes either one of these prerequisites and obtains the instructor's permission, however, will be allowed to take MIS 260." Tasks 1. Create a decision table that describes the Big State University course catalog regarding eligibility for MIS 260. Show all possible rules. 2. Simplify the table you just created. Describe the results. 3. Draw a simplified decision tree to represent the Big State University catalog. Describe the results. 4. Why might you use a decision tree rather than a decision table?
