Client/Server and Peer-to-Peer networks are the two major network architecture models in use today. They each have advantages and disadvantages that can be used to benefit a particular outcome.

Briefly, the client/server model relates to one or many client performing relatively simple requests, which are then executed by a server. The server is performing more complex tasks, and often interacting with many clients simultaneously. Examples of client/server models include most websites, including the Brainly page you are running right this instant. Your web browser is acting as a client, and the Brainly.com website is running as a web server. It receives simple requests or information from your browser, such as clicking on a question or text typed by your keyboard, and then acts on this information by consulting a database, returning values, or returning a whole new web page to your browser. The client/server model is very powerful in business as it allows powerful and secure server-side processing and relatively simple clients. Office 365 that runs all microsoft office suites such as word and excel in a web browser on 'the cloud' is an example of a highly sophisticated client/server architecture.

By contrast, peer-to-peer networks are a distributed architecture of equals. Instead of a simple client and complex server, all clients are equals and link together to form nodes on a distributed network. There is no central control (server) and each node acts as a client and server to other nodes. This is also an extremely powerful network; as there is no central control it is difficult to shut down a peer-to-peer network. Taking out one node will not break the network in comparison to the client/server architecture where if the server goes down, services halt. Prime examples of famous peer-to-peer networks are the Bitcoin network and similar cryptographic currency networks, and music and file sharing networks such as Torrents. The torrent tracker websites are client/server however once a torrent is loaded into a torrent downloading application, the file is collectively downloaded from hundreds of 'peers' across the world as part of the torrent peer-to-peer network.

Write a CashRegister class that can be used with the RetailItem class that you wrote in Chapter 6's Programming Challenge 4. The
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Following are the code to this question:

import java.util.*; //import package for user input

class RetailItem//defining class RetailItem  

{

private String desc;//defining String variable

private int unit;//defining integer variable

private double prices;//defining double variable

RetailItem()//defining default Constructor

{

   //Constructor body

}

Output:

The Sub Total value: 199.75

The Sales Tax value: 11.985

The Total value: $211.735

Explanation:

In the above code three class "RetailItem, CashRegister, and Main" is defined, in the class "RetailItem", it defines three variable that is "desc, unit, and prices", inside the class "get and set" method and the constructor is defined, that calculates its value.

In the next step,  class "CashRegister" is defined, and inside the class parameterized constructor is defined, which uses the get and set method to return its value.  

In the next step, the main class is declared, in the main method two-class object is created and calls its method that are "getSubtotal, getTax, and getTotal".  

There is some technical error that's why full code can't be added so, please find the attached file of code.

The a0 is the part of the central processing unit that performs arithmetic calculations for the computer.
Serga [27]

Answer:

It is the ALU or the Arithmetic Logic Unit.

Explanation:

It is the ALU. However, keep in mind that registers and buses do a very important task. The number of registers we have, faster is the processing, and the opposite is true as well. And there is a reason behind this if we have different channels for sending and receiving the data from the memory, and several registers for storing the data, and we can formulate the requirement seeing the requirements for full adder and half adders. Remember we need to store several variables in case of the full adder, and which is the carry, and if we have separate registers for each of them, our task becomes easier. Remember its the CU that tells the ALU what operation is required to be performed. Also remember we have the same channel for input and output in the case of Van Neumann architecture, as we have a single bus. and we also have a single shared memory. And Harvard architecture is an advanced version of it.
