Explanation of Solution

Names:

To identify an entity present in the program, strings of character are used and it is called as name.

Design issues for the name:

The primary design issues for the name are discussed below:

  • Case sensitivity of the names.
    • The design issue that rise with the case-sensitivity is that language constructs that looks similar must also contain the same meanings as defined.
  • Reserved words or keywords are the special words of the language.
    • Every programming language contains own pre-defined keywords, reserved words.
    • The design issues will be in re-defining the key words which can be confusing and using the reserved words will be better choice in the language design.
    • There will be a readability issue rather than the readability issue.

Some of the example of design issues that occur with the names:

While writing names of the identifier there are some of the naming rules that should be followed and below are some of the example design issues that occur with the names:

  • The name of the identifier should not be as the name of the keyword that is predefined.
    • Some of the keywords such “enum”, “static”, “class” cannot be used as the identifiers name.
  • Constant that are defined should be present in the upper case.
    • Constant variables that are defined to be final are considered as constant.
    • For case sensitive programming language the case of the words plays a vital role that is proper usage of lower case and upper case is required.
    • The variable “run”, “RUN” or “Run” will have different meaning for the case sensitive programming languages.

6.3A-3. Multiple Access protocols (3). Consider the figure below, which shows the arrival of 6 messages for transmission at different multiple access wireless nodes at times t=0.1, 1.4, 1.8, 3.2, 3.3, 4.1. Each transmission requires exactly one time unit. 1 t=0.0 2 3 45 t=1.0 t-2.0 t-3.0 6 t=4.0 t-5.0 For the CSMA protocol (without collision detection), indicate which packets are successfully transmitted. You should assume that it takes .2 time units for a signal to propagate from one node to each of the other nodes. You can assume that if a packet experiences a collision or senses the channel busy, then that node will not attempt a retransmission of that packet until sometime after t=5. Hint: consider propagation times carefully here. (Note: You can find more examples of problems similar to this here B.] ☐ U ப 5 - 3 1 4 6 2
Just wanted to know, if you had a scene graph, how do you get multiple components from a specific scene node within a scene graph? Like if I wanted to get a component from wheel from the scene graph, does that require traversing still?   Like if a physics component requires a transform component and these two component are part of the same scene node. How does the physics component knows how to get the scene object's transform it is attached to, this being in a scene graph?
