The current status of various forms of e-commerce.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
E-commerce is buying and selling of goods or services using electronic medium. There are various forms of e-commerce such as B2B e-commerce, B2C e-commerce, C2C e-commerce and m-commerce. The growth in e-commerce can be credited to the creation of World Wide Web in 1990s. Internet or World Wide Web is commonly used for e-commerce practices.
The retail e-commerce sales are expected to grow by 20%. Following graphs shows the retail e-commerce sales worldwide:
Dollar volume gives information regarding the liquidity of shares. Dollar volume liquidity is the multiplication of average stock price and its average volume. When comparing the dollar volume of B2B and B2C e-commerce in U.S., it is found that the dollar volume of B2B e-commerce is roughly twice than that to B2C e-commerce. In 2013, B2B e-commerce sales within United States was estimated to be $559, whereas as per a prediction done by Forbes, this scale will rise up to 6.7 trillion dollars by 2020 compared to B2C e-commerce Dollar volume which is half the size of its measure at 3.7 trillion dollars.
The major forms of e-commerce which are at boom are B2B e-commerce and B2C e-commerce. It is estimated that B2B firms will be spending more on e-commerce technologies than online retailers. Among B2C e-commerce category, most sales are seen in the apparel products and then in electronics and home décor. M-commerce is making its way fast in the e-commerce trends. An estimation projects that mobiles will be reaching 70% of e-commerce traffic by end of 2018. The total revenue generated by m-commerce in USA was $700 billion in 2017. C2C e-commerce is least popular among the other e-commerce trends and is increasing at a constant pace, while e-government refers to government providing its citizens services through online websites. E-government is getting popular day by day and almost in all the developed countries and developing countries government is providing services such as license allotment, tax payment , etc. with the help of e-commerce.

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]
To assume that the network addresses are correct, we take a look at the network ID and IP addresses. Take 20.0.0.0/8, we have an /8 prefix which is Class A, that provide us with 255.0.0.0. This means that there are 24 host bits while the network bits are 8. When compared to the IP address 20.255.0.7, we can perform an additional operation with the subnet mask giving us 20.0.0.0. The same happened with 20.0.0.89, which we also got 20.0.0.0. Therefore, these two IP addresses fall within the respective /8 subnet. For 200.100.10.0/30, the /30 is Class C with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.252, meaning 30 network bits and only two host bits. When applying the subnet mask and the IP addresses…
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.

[Hint: Look at the addresses in binary and consider the host ids]arrow_forwardI would like to know if my answer statment is correct? My answer: The main difference is how routes are created and maintained across different networks. Static routing establishes router connections to different networks from the far left and far right. The Dynamic routing focus emphasizes immediate connection within the router while ignoring the other connections from different networks. Furthermore, the static routing uses the subnet mask to define networks such as 25.0.0.0/8, 129.60.0.0/16, and 200.100.10.0/30, which correspond to 255.0.0.0, 255.255.0.0, and 255.255.255.252. On the other hand, dynamic routing uses the wildcard mask to inverse the subnet mask, where network bits become 0 and host bits become 1, giving us 0.0.0.255, 0.0.255.255, and 0.0.0.3. Most importantly, the CLI commands used for Static and Dynamic routing are also different. For static routing, the “IP route” corresponds with the network, subnet mask, and next-hop IP address. In contrast, dynamic routing uses…arrow_forward
