Answer:

a) Speedup gain is 1.428 times.

b) Speedup gain is 1.81 times.

Explanation:

in order to calculate the speedup again of an application that has a 60 percent parallel component using Anklahls Law is speedup which state that:

t=\frac{1 }{(S + (1- S)/N) }

Where S is the portion of the application that must be performed serially, and N is the number of processing cores.

(a) For N = 2 processing cores, and a 60%, then S = 40% or 0.4

Thus, the speedup is:

t = \frac{1}{(0.4 + (1-0.4)/2)} =1428671

Speedup gain is 1.428 times.

(b) For N = 4 processing cores and a 60%, then S = 40% or 0.4

Thus, the speedup is:

t=\frac{1}{(0.4 + (1-0.4)/4)} = 1.8181

Speedup gain is 1.81 times.

Give two reasons why network security is the most important issue regarding data centers.
deff fn [24]
Three key concepts of security are integrity, confidentiality, and availability.

Network firewalls are the first line of defense, intended to keep intruders out. Once a system is compromised, all of its data can be accessed, and if a bad actor gains access to one system, they effectively have access to all of the systems. This touches on both system integrity and data confidentiality.

Security is also related to availability, or uptime. If your network is compromised, it may be inaccessible to those who need to use it, making it useless. If I'm working from an office in Chicago, and the company's main DC is in Atlanta, I need the network to remain available to access critical files.

7.6 LAB: Checker for integer string Forms often allow a user to enter an integer. Write a program that takes in a string represe
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Following are the program in the Python Programming Language:

def check(num): #define function

 if(num.isdigit()): #set if statement

   return "yes"; #return yes if condition is true

 else:  

   return "no";# return no if condition is false

string=input("Enter the numbers 0-9: ") #get input from the user

print(check(string)) #print and call the function

Output:

Enter the numbers 0-9: 1995

yes

Enter the numbers 0-9: 42,000

no

Explanation:

Here, we define a function "check()" and pass an argument in its parameter "num" inside the function.

  • we set if-else conditional statement and check the value stored in the variable "num" is the digit by using built in function "isdigit()" then return "yes".
  • Then, otherwise it return "no".

Finally, we get the input from the user in the variable "string" then, we call the function through "print()" function.
