anything in Linux. Mainly because of this: in order to install on your computer, a virus needs your password. And that it doesn't have. Furthermore, you generally only install software from the secured "software store" (repositories) of your Linux distribution. This is a very effective barrier against malware. Therefore there are no Linux viruses "in the wild" (with the exception of web servers, but securing web servers is quite a different cup of tea). The best protection against viruses is this:

Solutions to Practice Problems for Part IV 1. Five inspectors are employed to check the quality of components produced on an assembly line. For each inspector, the number of components that can be checked in a shift can be represented by a random variable with mean 120 and standard deviation 16. Let X represent the number of components checked by an inspector in a shift. Then the total number checked is 5X, which has mean 600 and standard deviation 80. What is wrong with this argument? Assuming

produced by an Indian supplier, who ships four containers of lamps (1,536 cartons) on a weekly basis to the Port of Halifax. After the arrival of these containers at the Port of Halifax, the lamps are then transferred to each of the LPI’s contracted distribution centres through rail and truck. The total cost of this whole process is $24,439 per week, or $1,270,815 per year. Currently, a new supplier based in Montreal has been identified as a comparable alternative to the India supplier. The Montreal

Re-arranging the equation yields X = (60min/hr) / (81% x 4min/job) = 18.5 jobs/hr. Fixing the relative proportions of job types, the largest number of jobs per hour that OCP can handle is 18 jobs. PROBLEM 2: Modern Active Marketing To proceed with this problem, we need to calculate first the Critical Ratio (requiring the cost of underage and the cost of overage). Cost of underage (Cu) = Cost of having one magazine too few = 1.50$ - 0.35$ = 1.15$ Cost of overage (Co)

ELECTRICITY IN NIGERIA The problem is not new. Nigeria's power supply has been stagnant for 30 years. During the tumultuous 1990s there was no investment despite surging demand. Since then, generation capacity has risen by half but distribution is so dysfunctional that actual supply has remained flat. One result is a laughably small manufacturing sector, about 4% of GDP. There have been reform attempts in the past. The Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN), the monopoly supplier, is known to consumers

to overcome chronic power shortages and poor power quality. With demand exceeding supply, severe peak (around 18%) and energy (around 10%) shortages continue to plague the sector. Shortages are exacerbated by inefficiencies in power generation, distribution and end-use systems. The inefficiencies in the end-use systems is due to irrational tariffs, technological obsolescence of industrial processes and equipment, lack of awareness, nascent energy services (ESCO) industry, and inadequate policy drivers
