"Suppose that instead of always selecting the first activity to finish, we instead select the last activity to start that is com

patible with all previously selected activities. De- scribe how this approach is a greedy algorithm, and prove that it yields an optimal solution."

Answer:

Explanation:

We can say according what we

already know that Greedy algorithm selects the shortest path, and we can also say that the given approach is greedy as it selects the last activity to start as it is the shortest path to take.

Now suppose we are given a set S = {x1, x2,..... , xn} (where x1, x2…. are activities), and xi = [si, fi), and we try to find an optimal solution by selecting the last activity to start that is compatible with all previously selected

activities.

Now create a set S’ = {x’1, x’2, · · · , x’n}, where x’i = [f’i, si). (x’1 = x1 in reverse). We can see that, a subset of {x1, x2, · · · , xn}⊂S is mutually compatible if and only if the corresponding subset {x’1, x’2, · · · , x’n} ⊂ S’ is also mutually compatible. Thus, an optimal solution for S maps directly to an

optimal solution for S’ and vice versa.

The given algorithm when run on S, produces the same result as the greedy algorithm when run on S’. The solution of algorithm for S corresponds to the solution of greedy algorithm for S’, and hence the algorithm is optimal.

Answer:

filler content

Explanation:

Isabel must use some sort of filler content while creating a wireframe that she is up with. For the banner, she can make use of the placeholder, and for the text, she can make use of the lorem ipsum. Also, if the wireframe is low fidelity then only she can use above. And if the wireframe is high fidelity then she should use the original banner and text.

A network administrator is configuring an ACL with the command access-list 10 permit 172.16.32.0 0.0.15.255. Which IPv4 address
lord [1]

Answer:

For this wild card mask 0.0.15.255 the ACE IP address will be 172.16.47.254

Explanation:

ACL is the access control list that is used to enlist the ip addresses that allowed or restricted to access the network. ACE is an IP address from the list ACL that has all rules and regulations related to access of network. The ACE could be in the range of IP address in ACL. ACL can be calculated with the help of initial IP address adding with wild card mask.

So

Initial IP address is = 172.16.32.0

Wild card mask =0.0.15.255

by adding above values we can find the last IP address of ACL.

after addition

Final IP address is = 172.16.47.255

The options that are available with question, Only option between the range is  172.16.47.254. So we can say that This is the only ACE IP address in options.

What is the boundary folding method?
Romashka [77]

Answer:

 Boundary folding method is basically used in the java algorithm and in the hash table. In the hash function, the left and the right value are basically folded in the fixed boundary between the given center values by using the boundary folding methods.

There are basically two types of folding method in the hashing that are:

  • Folding shift
  • Folding boundary

In the folding boundary method the outside value are get reversed and the alternate values are get flipped at the boundary folding method.
