Recommendations to upgrade laptop’s memory:

Based upon the expert’s knowledge from the industry, the following are the methods and recommendations to upgrade the laptop’s memory,

  • Initially, check how much memory is available on the laptop to avoid the bottle necks of the computer.
    • Open the “Windows Task manager” and in the “Task manager” tab, it shows how much memory is used out of total memory.
    • For more detailed view, there is an option “Open Resource monitor” in the Task manager window that shows the amount of physical memory available in the laptop.
  • Next, check whether the laptop can be upgraded or not...

Explanation of Solution

Type and amount of memory for laptop:

  • There is an application called “Crucial system scanner” which is need to be downloaded based upon the terms and conditions.
  • After downloading and executing the application, it displays some of the re...

Explanation of Solution

Reason for not purchasing more memory on laptop:

Even though the computer is supported for more memory, the mother board supports for limited amount of memory or else the memory would not work.

  • On each motherboard, there is a controller to access the Random Access Memory (RAM). So, there will be a limiting factor to access the memory by that controller...

Explanation of Solution

Available slots in memory modules:

The following are the simple steps to check the available slots in the laptop,

  • First open task manager in “Run” command.
  • Then select “performance” tab and click on the “memory section”...

Explanation of Solution

Safety measures:

While upgrading the memory in laptop, there will be a chance of electrostatic discharge and to avoid this, let need to ground the component and this can be achieved by the following safety measure...

Explanation of Solution

Better option:

Actually, this is a complex decision to take whether the laptop is needed to be upgraded or replaced. This is because,

  • Some of the different component in the laptop is not an easy process to replace, but it is possible to upgrade the laptop if some of the proper tools are available.
  • Moreover, the user requires little patience to upgrade the laptop...

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?
