A system design consists of user interface, inputs-outputs and an
- The main function of a good system design is to find errors, handle it and correct it wherever required. The error handling should be controlled so that it does not cause damage to the system.
- Once a system is deployed, there is no guarantee for no changes to be made in the system. Hence, the system design should support future changes in order to accommodate changes in user requirements or adapting to a new technology.
- An effective system meets the needs of the users and supports the business.
A few points to remember when designing a system are as follows:
- The designer should think like a user and anticipate requirements. Also, the system designer should keep in mind the set of inputs and outputs, and any exceptions, if any. The designer should not burden the user with a variety of choices as it might confuse him/her and may cause system damage.
- The system designer should model the system in such a way that it is easy to modify later on, when necessary. For example, if an attribute like ‘address’ maybe later broken down in parts like, ‘flat number, ‘street’, ‘locality', etc. The system should be able to work as efficiently with these attributes as it did, with the previous attribute.
- The designer should allow the user to set constraints as per his/her requirements. For example, the user may want to query to check a list of employees who have more than $5,000 in their accounts. Here, the value of $5,000 should be set by the user. It may be possible for the user to query for the same using the constraint as $3,000. Hence, this decision must rest with the user.

List the shortest paths between all node pairs. Indicate the number of shortest paths that pass through each edge. Explain how this information helps determine edge betweenness. 2. Compute the edge betweenness for each configuration of DFS. 3. Remove the edge(s) with the highest betweenness and redraw the graph. Recompute the edge betweenness centrality for the new graph. Explain how the network structure changes after removing the edge. 4. Iteratively remove edges until at least two communities form. Provide step-by-step calculations for each removal. Explain how edge betweenness changes dynamically during the process. 5. How many communities do you detect in the final step? Compare the detected communities with the original graph structure.

- Unit 1 Assignment 1 – Loops and Methods (25 points) Task: You are working for Kean University and given the task of building an Email Registration System. Your objective is to generate a Kean email ID and temporary password for every new user. The system will prompt for user information and generate corresponding credentials. You will develop a complete Java program that consists of the following modules: Instructions: 1. Main Method: ○ The main method should include a loop (of your choice) that asks for input from five users. For each user, you will prompt for their first name and last name and generate the email and password by calling two separate methods. Example о Enter your first name: Joe Enter your last name: Rowling 2.generateEmail() Method: This method will take the user's first and last name as parameters and return the corresponding Kean University email address. The format of the email is: • First letter of the first name (lowercase) + Full last name (lowercase) +…arrow_forwardI have attached my code, under I want you to show me how to enhance it and make it more cooler and better in graphics with following the instructions.arrow_forwardUsing R languagearrow_forward
