Differentiate between Cloud computing<br> and Grid computing.

Sladkaya [172]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Cloud computing is based on a Client-Server model. Cloud computing is a highly accessible service that utilizes centralized resources. Cloud computing is a pay-as-you-go model, which implies that customers pay for the service they get.

The second one, is a distributed computer model known as Grid Computing. Users in grid computing do not have to pay for the usage of resources in a collaborative manner.

<h3>Examples of differences between the two:</h3>

Cloud computing is a client-server computing architecture, while Cloud Computing is a distributed computing architecture.
Cloud computing is a centralized executive, while Grid Computing is a decentralized executive.
In Cloud Computing, resources are used in centralized pattern. While in Grid Computing, resources are used in collaborative, shared pattern.
Cloud Computing is more flexible than Grid Computing
In Cloud Computing, the users pay for the use. Vice versa that is not the case.
Cloud Computing is a high accessible service, while Grid Computing is a low accessible service.
Cloud Computing can be accessed through standard web protocols, white Grid Computing is accessible through grid middleware.

The waiting time at which 10 percent of the people would continue to hold is given as 2.3

<h3>How to solve for the waiting time</h3>

We have to solve for X ~ Exponential(λ).

then E(X) = 1/λ = 3,

= 0.3333

Remember that the cumulative distribution function of X is F(x) = 1 - e^(-λx). ; x is equal to the time in over case

For 10 percent of the people we would have a probability of

10/100 = 0.1

we are to find

P(X ≤ t)

= 1 - e^(0.3333)(t) = 0.1

Our concern is the value of t

Then we take the like terms

1-0.1 = e^(0.3333)(t)

1/0.9 = e^(0.3333)(t)

t = 3 * ln(1/0.9)

= 0.3157

One negative consequence of using automation to improve manufacturing production is that:

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": factories often need fewer workers.

Explanation:

Automation is the introduction of machinery in manufacturing companies with the intention of mass-producing standardized goods in an attempt to reduce costs by using large lines of equipment instead of more human labor hand. While this represents an advantage for companies, it is a drawback for employees who see their job duties being handled to machines.

Automation is used in different industries such as <em>utilities, defense, </em>and <em>information technology.</em>

The January 28, 2017 (fiscal year 2016) financial statements of Caleres, Inc. reported the following information (in thousands):

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A. 136.2 days

Explanation:

To compute the average days inventory outstanding, first, we have to find out the inventory turnover ratio

Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold ÷ average inventory

where,

Average inventory = (Opening balance of inventory + ending balance of inventory) ÷ 2

= ($546,745 + $585,764) ÷ 2

= $566,254

And, the cost of good sold is $1,517,397

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the answer would be equal to

= $1,517,397 ÷ $566,254.50

= 2.67 times

Now, Days in inventory = Total number of days in a year ÷ inventory turnover ratio

= 365 days ÷ 2.67 times

= 136.70 days approx
