Blown to Bits Chapter 4 was all about the organization of bits, and how the internet is organized. After all, there is simply so much data on the internet, one must wonder exactly how search engines such as Google can pull up websites from this virtual sea of chaos. Well, at first, the internet was mainly a repository for information. Websites were browsed in a hierarchical order, with the websites of most precedence appearing before those with less prominence, which makes a lot of sense if you…
The problem or the issue addressed is on how to parallelize the computation, distribute the data, and handle failures conspire to obscure the original simple computation with large amounts of complex code to deal with these issues. Contributions are simple powerful interface that gives parallelization and distribution of large scale systems. So to tackle the issue of parallelization, fault tolerance and distribution of data, they acquired the map and reduce primitives. The use of a functional…
bandwidth of fiber has not been fully utilized and it is already transmitting signals at multiple gigabits per second. Fiber optic cables can go an average of 62 miles versus 1.2 miles that copper can go before the signal needs to be regenerated or boosted. Overall, it is apparent that fiber optics is a more cost effective solution. Fiber optics is non-metallic and is not susceptible to interference, such as electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency (RF) or lightning. Fiber does not…
ECE-669c INDEPENDENT SUDY ON FIBER OPTIC SENSORS Mr. Prasanna M.Thawale School of Computer science and Engineering, California State University Northridge, Northridge-91324. Independent Study On Fiber Optic Sensors Overview: Term: Fall-2014 Guide: Prof. Nagwa Bekir Topic: Fiber Optic Sensors . Introduction: Fiber optic sensor since their emergence have been a sector of keen interest for researchers because of their specific and exclusive characteristics thus resulting into the…
3.3 DEMERITS Cost comes first in considering the demerits of optical fiber networks. Despite of the fact that the cost for fiber is dropping by 60% per year and is beneficial in long run, its initial installation cost is still high and is not affordable to all vendors. Per unit cost of fiber cable is more than that of copper cable. Secondly, as the technology is still new and improvising, it requires skilled manpower for its installation, operation and maintenance. Further it requires new…
constantly and with constant polarity. As opposed to alternating current, which changes its flow direction at regular intervals and can also increase or decrease in value. In this essay I will be mainly describing DC circuits wired in series, parallel, and series-parallel. In a DC series circuit the components are all wired together from end to end with the same amount of current flowing through each component. In a simple series circuit all that is required is a power source (battery),…
options to avoid confusion when grading. Furthermore, there is no pattern in the correct answers. Item #1 Revised Taxonomy - Cognitive Levels In answering this item, the student must recall the definition of parallel. Thus, the student must remember the factual knowledge that resistors in parallel have the same voltage. Item-writing Guidelines In creating this item, simple language and grammatical conventions are used, and the stem does not provide any clues to answer the item. Also, the options…
But in Norton’s Theorem the equivalent circuit has a current source and a resistance in parallel with the load resistance (R_X). Continued on next page: HOW IS IT USED When using Norton’s Theorem the load resistance is removed and replaced with a short (wire) and points labeled A and B. The reason to label the points A and B is to show…
Home is word that most people are familiar with, usually the place in which someone lives. Although, home is still a concept and some people stretch to a wide term such as a place with family or even other realms recognizing themselves as the omnipotent watcher. However, in Sook Nyui Choi’s book Year of Impossible Goodbyes home is quite different, home is something that most people do not think of having to value for it is a place where freedom exists. In this novel ten year old Sookan, a…
country of Korea on that day. Many people ask why this is a bad event for Korea. Well, on that day the unthinkable happened, Korea split into two countries. That country would soon be called North and South Korea. They had to build a wall in the 39th parallel so that the countries would fight and hurt any of their loyal citizens in the country.They called this wall the demilitarized zone or the DMZ. This was the first time in history that had to have a dedicated DMZ to separate a country from…
