Chapter 7, Problem 1RQ
Explanation of Solution
Features of simple network:
- The client computers, server computer, network
operating system software, network interfaces, hub, and a connection medium are the entities of a simple network. - The basic responsible for network operating system software is controlling the network and its functions.
- One client computer is connected to another client computer within the same network.
- Hubs and switches function is sending packets of data to all other linked devices.
- The network helping up web pages to storing data and network operating system.
- The switch has the capability to select a particular destination while the hub sends a packet to all other linked devices.
- The network components links with the connection mediums such as coaxial cables, radio signals or telephone wires.
- The Microsoft Window Server, Linux and Novell Open Enterprise Server are the most commonly used network operating system software...
Explanation of Solution
Principal technologies and trends:
- Client/ Server computing
- Packet switching
- TCP/ IP and Connectivity
Client/ Server computing:
- Client/ Server computing is defined as a distributed computing model where a part of the processing power is placed within cheap client computers and exist in laptops, handled devices or desktops.
- It also allows for computing to departments, factory floors, workgroups and other parts of a business that couldn’t be worked by a centralized architecture.
- The clients are linked to other clients through networks that is controlled by a network server computer.
- It has replaced by centralized mainframe computer.
- The process of the client/ server computing has no longer take place on a central large mainframe computer.
Packet Switching:
- Messages transferring in the internet are divide into fixed size unit of data called packet.
- Messages are divided into packets to increase the performance and reliability of the internet.
- Ιt also improves the effectiveness of the communication line in the internet.
- Packets travel through several routers before it reaches the destination.
- Router is a device that provides a path for the packet to reach the destination...

Many companies use telephone numbers like 555-GET-FOOD so the number is easier for their customers to remember. On a standard telephone, the alphabetic letters are mapped to numbers in the following fashion:
A, B, and C = 2
D, E, and F = 3
G, H, and I = 4
J, K, and L = 5
M, N, and O = 6
P, Q, R, and S = 7
T, U, and V = 8
W, X, Y, and Z = 9
Write a program that asks the user to enter a 10-character telephone number in the format XXX-XXX-XXXX. The application should display the telephone number with any alphabetic characters that appeared in the original translated to their numeric equivalent. For example, if the user enters 555-GET-FOOD, the application should display 555-438-3663.

Homework
You have the row vector (A) that has values from (-100 to 100),
write MATLAB codes to:
(1) Interchange the first 10 elements with last ten elements.
(2) Replace the elements at indices (93,9,17,50) of A with 99.
(3) Return the second element and the element before the last
of A as a column vector (C1).
(4) Extract the first five elements and the last five elements of A
and append them as a row vector (R).
(5) Set the elements of A with odd indices to zeros(0).

See the code below and solve the following. public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { int result = 0; } result = fn(2,3); System.out.println("The result is: + result); // fn(x, 1) = x // fn(x, y) = fn(x, y-1) + 2, when y>1 public static int fn(int x, int y) { if (x <= 1) return x; else return fn(x, y-1) + 2; } } 7-1. This program has a bug that leads to infinite recursion. Modify fn(int x, int y) method to fix the problem. (2 point) 7-2. Manually trace the recursive call, fn(2,3) and show the output (step by step). (2 point) 7-3. Can you identify the Base Case in recursive method fn(int x, int y)? (1 point)arrow_forward6.

The input begins with an integer indicating the length of the list that follows. Assume the list will contain a maximum of 20 integers. Output "yes" if the list is a palindrome and "no" otherwise. The output ends with a newline. Hints: - use a for loop to populate the array based on the specified size (the first number entered) - use a for loop to check first value with last value, second value with second from end, etc. - if the values do not match, set a Boolean variable to flag which statement to output (yes or no) Ex: If the input is (remember to include spaces between the numbers): 6 1 5 9 9 5 1 the output is: yes Ex: If the input is: 5 1 2 3 4 5 the output is: C++ codingarrow_forward
