Explanation of Solution

Bluetooth

  • Bluetooth devices are used to transmit low power wireless data with devices in small range distance at the range of 10cm (Centimeter) to 30m (Meter).
  • Bluetooth devices contains higher transfer rate at the range of 722 kbps (Kilobits per second).
  • It is low-cost and easy to install, simple and convenient to use, and many applications can be transmitted using the device.
  • The Bluetooth is used to transmit between music players such as mobile phones to headsets.
  • It will connect one computer with another computer.

Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity):

  • It has third generation wireless access connection. In this, the data is transmitted to or from the node points within the radius range.
  • The radius of the network ranges up to meters. The node point is connected to a wired network and shares the data with wireless users.
  • It is connected through Local Area Network (LANs), and Wide Area Network (WANs).

WiMAX:

WiMAX stands for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access.

  • WiMAX is the forthcoming new technology standard for long distance wireless communications.
  • The WiMAX technology is designed to join the Wi-Fi and DSL (Digital Subscriber Line)...

Explanation of Solution

Capabilities and suitable applications of each types of technologies:

Bluetooth – it provides only limited access; it is used to create small personal-area network.

Wi-Fi – it covers from 30 meters to 50 meters; it is used to create small local-area network...

Explanation of Solution

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID):

  • RFID is a mobile wireless technology that is used to facilitate supply chain management.
  • Movement of data is tracked by RFID. It capture and provide instant goods movement information between the supply chain partners.

Working of RFID:

  • RFID system provides a microchip that contains the details of an item and its location...

Explanation of Solution

Wireless Sensor Data (WSN):

It is a network of organized wireless devices. A network consists of thousands of nodes.

It helps to observe the building security or to detect harmful substances in the air.

Working of WSN:

  • The WSN are networks of interrelated wireless devices with some processing and radio-transmitting capacity that are embedded into the physical environment to give measurements of various points over huge spaces...

You are working with a database table that contains customer data. The table includes columns about customer location such as city, state, and country. You want to retrieve the first 3 letters of each country name. You decide to use the SUBSTR function to retrieve the first 3 letters of each country name, and use the AS command to store the result in a new column called new_country.  You write the SQL query below. Add a statement to your SQL query that will retrieve the first 3 letters of each country name and store the result in a new column as new_country.
We are considering the RSA encryption scheme. The involved numbers are small, so the communication is insecure.  Alice's public key (n,public_key) is (247,7). A code breaker manages to factories  247 = 13 x 19  Determine Alice's secret key. To solve the problem, you need not use the extended Euclid algorithm, but you may assume that her private key is one of the following numbers 31,35,55,59,77,89.
Consider the following Turing Machine (TM). Does the TM halt if it begins on the empty tape? If it halts, after how many steps? Does the TM halt if it begins on a tape that contains a single letter A followed by blanks? Justify your answer.
