local network that is of high speed. The nodes in the network mostly computer that is used as the server normally run their own instance of the operating system. The whole idea of computer cluster started from coming together of computing development that entailed the presence of cheap microprocessor, network that had high speed and the software’s that was considered having a high performance in the distributed mode of computing. The main use of cluster is to boost the performance and the availability

A1- Explain how you determined your product design decisions in the simulation. In the simulation we had to start a computer company from the ground. Initially, we were given a 2 million dollar investment to start with. We had to choose 2 out of 3 markets in 4 different major cities each with their individual need. We had to design computers that will respond to their needs based on the market report that was provided. We did not have a report or review of our products to rely on to build new computers

Chromatography INTRODUCTION IN THIS LAB, WE WILL BE EXPRESSING THE GREEN FLUORESCENT PROTEIN (GFP) IN BACTERIA AND PURIFYING IT USING COLUMN CHROMATOGRAPHY. THE SPECIFIC TYPE OF CHROMATOGRAPHY WE WILL BE USING IS HYDROPHOBIC INTERACTION CHROMATOGRAPHY (HIC). THE FOLLOWING IS INFORMATION FROM BIO-RAD INC., THE SUPPLIER OF THE REAGENTS: GFP has several stretches of hydrophobic amino acids, which results in the total protein being very hydrophobic. When the supernatant, rich in GFP, is passed

Chromatography is commonly used to separate mixtures to determine different chemical components. The main types of chromatography include gas, thin layer, paper and column chromatography. Generally used most, paper has a stationery phase and a mobile phase in a chromatographical experiment. The stationery phase is the paper itself absorbing the solvent, while the mobile phase is the solute moving up the strip of paper. Solvents are solids, liquids or gasses that dissolve the solute, in this instance
