effectiveness [5]. Many different sorting algorithms have been developed and improved to make sorting fast. The formal definition of the sorting problem is as follows: Input: A sequence having n numbers in some random order (a1, a2, a3, ….. an) Output: A permutation (a’1, a’2, a’3, ….. a’n) of the input sequence such that a’1 ≤ a’2 ≤ a’3 ≤ ….. a’n For instance, if the given input of numbers is (59, 41, 31, 41, 26, 58), then the output sequence returned by a sorting algorithm will be (26, 31, 41, 41, 58,

GRE MATH FORMULAE Mixtures first.... 1. when you mix different quantities (say n1 and n2) of A and B, with different strengths or values v1 and v2 then their mean value vm after mixing will be: Vm*(n1 + n2) = (v1.n1 + v2.n2) you can use this to find the final price of say two types of rice being mixed or final strength of acids of different concentration being mixed etc.... the ratio in which they have to be mixed in order to get a mean value of vm can be given as: n1/n2 = (v2

looking at neurons here. There are 100 billion neurons in the adult human brain. And each neuron makes something like 1,000 to 10,000 contacts with other neurons in the brain. And based on this, people have calculatedthat the number of permutations and combinations of brain activity exceeds the number of elementary particles in the universe. 1:01So, how do you go about studying the brain? One approach is to look at patients who had lesions in different part of the brain, and study changes in their

Case Study: Midas BUS 644 Operations Management Dr. Snell May 19, 2014 Case Study: Midas Specialization is a two-edged sword. When an organization specializes, they become experts in a particular process, product, or operation. In exchange for this deeper knowledge and ability in one factor, the organization typically suffers a loss of width in the marketplace therein reducing their potential customer base. Efficiencies should certainly be derived from this specialization and with efficiency

Question 1 a) The 6000 octet’s datagram itself comprise of a 20 octets header. Therefore, this means that only 5800-octetcs datagram comprise of the data field. Actual total data field = 6000 octets (data field) – 20 octets (header) = 5980 octets The Ethernet frame can take a payload of 1400 octets and every payload must go with a 20 octet’s header. This means that each payload will comprise 20 octet’s headers + 1380 octets’ data field. Each payload = 1380 octets (data
