Unit 1 M180 Assignment 1

Unit 4 is the last unit for this class and for the last one; we were given the option to present our work to the class instead of writing an essay. We were allowed to choose the topic of our project which allowed the students to work on a subject to their interest. I partnered up with Giovannie (Gio) Legaspi for this project. It took a couple days to find out the topic of our project. We were looking through different commercials to see what they were trying to argue. We were thinking about the pro life and pro choice debate to be our subject but found it difficult so, we eventually decided to do immigration.

I’m always fascinated by the stories of successful entrepreneurs such as Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba and Elon Musk the founder of Tesla and Space X. It is not only because of they are famous but also because they found their investors who contribute to their success and have the right to take part of it. The curiosity of finance drags me into the field of commerce and investment. Finance, a comprehensive study, requires the ability of mathematics and understanding of the economic environments which are my two favorite subjects since I was in year 11. I got my first chance to access to the field of finance in 2017 through two internships: at China Everbright Bank and Nuoyuan Holdings, a subsidiary of Hanfor Holdings. Getting to

Stacks are containers of objects that are inserted and then removed according to Last-In-First-Out (LIFO). This means that the last item inserted will be the first item removed. Inserting an item is referred to as Pushing, while removing an item is called Popping. A queue works a little different than a stack does, in that it follows First-In-First-Out. So rather than having the last object removed first, the first object is removed first. Elements can be inserted at any time, but the only element that can be removed is the one that has been in the queue the longest.

For any escalations that might come up while working the queue, the Command Center should be contacted.

The internal factors to be considered when planning the human resource requirements for an organisation are the internal planning force, demands for products/services, technological change, skill requirements, workforce profiles (age, gender, ethnicity, ability) and new markets. Internal planning factors are within the business to help the organisation change to cope with new methods of work or new demands; it may be the business is being introduced to new technology or new product lines. Also it maybe developing new skill so that the workforce can work more efficiently.

I'm riding in this year's MS150, and would love your support in my fundraising efforts! With your encouragement and support, I was able to ride over 1000 miles and raise over $1000 dollars last year. I hope to get the same encouragement and support from each of you to do even more this year.

The pointer from a record push in a nonclustered file to an information push is known as a column locator. The structure of the line locator relies upon whether the information pages are put away in a stack or a bunched table. For a pile, a column locator is a pointer to the line. For a grouped table, the line locator is the bunched list key.

3. A) One of the fundamental assumptions of waiting line systems is that the arrival rate cannot exceed the service rate or the system is said to be unstable. In the case, the arrival rate at times is almost equal to, or greater than, the service rate, hence

This presents the need for memory management, as the memory of the computer would need to be searched for a free area in which to load a users program. When the user was finished running the program, the memory consumed by it would need to be freed up and made available for another user when required (CIT). Process scheduling and management is also necessary, so that all programs can be executed and run without conflict. Some programs might need to be executed more frequently than others, for example, printing. Conversely, some programs may need to be temporarily halted, then restarted again, so this introduces the need for inter-program communication. In modern operating systems, we speak more of a process (a portion of a program in some stage of execution (CIT, 3)) than a program. This is because only a portion of the program is loaded at any one time. The rest of the program sits waiting on the disk until it is needed, thereby saving memory space. UNIX users speak of the operating system as having three main parts: the kernel, the shell and the file system. While DOS users tend not to use the term kernel and only sometimes use the term shell, the terms remain relevant. The kernel, also known as the "Real Time Executive", is the low-level core of the OS and is loaded into memory right after the loading of the BIOS whenever the system is started. The kernel handles the transfer of data among the various parts of the system, such as from hard disk to

Objects and Classes are used to design a program in object-oriented programming techniques. Object refers to physical and logical state of an entity where as a Class is a logical entity only. Objects are entities that have state and behavior which can be physical or logical and tangible or intangible. Banking Systems are an example for intangible objects. The characteristics of an object is determined by its State - data or value the object represents, Behavior - represents the functional aspects like start, stop and Identity – refers to the unique ID assigned and used by JVM to identify objects uniquely not visible to the user. For example: Phone is an object. It is name as Apple, Color is white which indicates the state and is used to call or text is its behavior. Object is an instance of Class, the template and blueprint of the class in used to create objects. In other words objects are the result of a class. Objects are real and runtime entities and are determined by their state and behavior.

The Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) runs over TCP and provides a publish/ subscribe architecture which is similar to that of

Piggybacking: When the system deal with target transfers, the target transfer can be covered by those non-target transfers, because it may be transmitted earlier or delayed till later. By applying this technique the tail time of schedule will be reduced.

And Nygaard (1996) said “In object-oriented programming, an information process is regarded as a system developing through transformation of its state. The substance of the process is organized as the system components, called objects. A measurable property of the substance is a property of an object. Transformation of state is regarded as actions by objects.”
