What should be done to make sure the AutoSum feature will use the correct range?

It takes 2 seconds to read or write one block from/to disk and it also takes 1 second of CPU time to merge one block of records.

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Part a: For optimal 4-way merging, initiate with one dummy run of size 0 and merge this with the 3 smallest runs. Than merge the result to the remaining 3 runs to get a merged run of length 6000 records.

Part b: The optimal 4-way merging takes about 249 seconds.

Explanation:

The complete question is missing while searching for the question online, a similar question is found which is solved as below:

Part a

For optimal 4-way merging, we need one dummy run with size 0.

Merge 4 runs with size 0, 500, 800, and 1000 to produce a run with a run length of 2300. The new run length is calculated as follows $L_{mrg}=L_0+L_1+L_2+L_3=0+500+800+1000=2300$
Merge the run as made in step 1 with the remaining 3 runs bearing length 1000, 1200, 1500. The merged run length is 6000 and is calculated as follows

$L_{merged}=L_{mrg}+L_4+L_5+L_6=2300+1000+1200+1500=6000$

The resulting run has length 6000 records.

Part b

For step 1

Input Output Time

Input Output Time is given as

$T_{I.O}=\frac{L_{run}}{Size_{block}} \times Time_{I/O \, per\, block}$

Here

L_run is 2300 for step 01
Size_block is 100 as given
Time_{I/O per block} is 2 sec

So

$T_{I.O}=\frac{L_{run}}{Size_{block}} \times Time_{I/O \, per\, block}\\T_{I.O}=\frac{2300}{100} \times 2 sec\\T_{I.O}=46 sec$

So the input/output time is 46 seconds for step 01.

CPU Time

CPU Time is given as

$T_{CPU}=\frac{L_{run}}{Size_{block}} \times Time_{CPU \, per\, block}$

Here

L_run is 2300 for step 01
Size_block is 100 as given
Time_{CPU per block} is 1 sec

So

$T_{CPU}=\frac{L_{run}}{Size_{block}} \times Time_{CPU \, per\, block}\\T_{CPU}=\frac{2300}{100} \times 1 sec\\T_{CPU}=23 sec$

So the CPU time is 23 seconds for step 01.

Total time in step 01

$T_{step-01}=T_{I.O}+T_{CPU}\\T_{step-01}=46+23\\T_{step-01}=69 sec\\$

Total time in step 01 is 69 seconds.

For step 2

Input Output Time

Input Output Time is given as

$T_{I.O}=\frac{L_{run}}{Size_{block}} \times Time_{I/O \, per\, block}$

Here

L_run is 6000 for step 02
Size_block is 100 as given
Time_{I/O per block} is 2 sec

So

$T_{I.O}=\frac{L_{run}}{Size_{block}} \times Time_{I/O \, per\, block}\\T_{I.O}=\frac{6000}{100} \times 2 sec\\T_{I.O}=120 sec$

So the input/output time is 120 seconds for step 02.

CPU Time

CPU Time is given as

$T_{CPU}=\frac{L_{run}}{Size_{block}} \times Time_{CPU \, per\, block}$

Here

L_run is 6000 for step 02
Size_block is 100 as given
Time_{CPU per block} is 1 sec

So

$T_{CPU}=\frac{L_{run}}{Size_{block}} \times Time_{CPU \, per\, block}\\T_{CPU}=\frac{6000}{100} \times 1 sec\\T_{CPU}=60 sec$

So the CPU time is 60 seconds for step 02.

Total time in step 02

$T_{step-02}=T_{I.O}+T_{CPU}\\T_{step-02}=120+60\\T_{step-02}=180 sec\\$

Total time in step 02 is 180 seconds

Merging Time (Total)

Now the total time for merging is given as

$T_{merge}=T_{step-01}+T_{step-02}\\T_{merge}=69+180\\T_{merge}=249 sec\\$

Total time in merging is 249 seconds seconds

arsen [322]

Answer: LAN(Local area network)

Explanation:

Local area network(LAN) is the network that is made to cover small amount for area for providing network and computer services.It can usually span in the areas such as a personal room, single building etc.

It connects different peripheral devices like printer, switches, tabs etc with the computing system in small certain areas.
According to the question, the individual should use LAN network for linking computer with the printer device.
As the person has connected laptops, tablets,smartphones, network of printer etc within a network in single space, he is interacting these devices using local area network.
