Q1. You are designing an embedded system using an Intel Atom as a host. Does it make sense to add an accelerator to implement the function z = ax + by + c ? Explain.
YES The function z = ax + by +c requires to load the values of the variables, multiply the value a*x, b*y, c and add these values and then to store the result in z.To speed up the execution time, the accelerator is used. The accelerator reads the inputs form the processor and perform the computation and sends the result back to the processor. Thus using the accelerator, the equation can be executed quickly.
Without the use of accelerator the instruction may take many cycles for the processor to complete the computation. By using accelerator the function can be executed in less cycles.

You are designing a wastewater treatment system using a constructed wetland. The inputs will be high in organic forms of nitrogen. What processes occur that completely remove nitrogen? Explain the mechanisms to an interested colleague. What are possible drawbacks of this process?
Q1 The linear system Ax = b is given by: x1−x2 + 4x3 = 7 4x1 + 2x2 –x3= 18, x1 + 3x2+ x3 = 16, has the solution x=(3, 4,2)T. Using the initial guess x (0)=(1, 1,1)T Solve the above system as is using: Gauss-Seidel method. If the error increases, what does that mean and what should you do? (see b below) Condition the system so that convergence is secured and solve using the Gauss-Siedel method. Q2: Find a system...
1. You are planning to create a portfolio from Lockheed Martin Corp. and Intel Corp., but first need to determine the required (expected) return for each stock. After completing a bit of research you determine that the 10 Year U.S. Treasury yield is 3% and the expected return on the S&P 500 is 9%. You calculated the betas and found a beta for Lockheed of .8 and 1.3 for Intel. Calculate the required/expected returns for Lockheed and Intel using the...
PARTB 4. You are designing a system to enable a robot to stand on a trapeze. For small rotations, the robot can be assumed to obey the following differential equation d2 θ (t) dP--θ (t) = F(t) dt2 where θ(t) is the output angle (between the robot and a vertical reference) and F(1) is the input force exerted by a motor. a) Write the transfer function for the robot (ie a plant that converts the input to the output) b)...
9, Graph γ-1/θ using 0 < θ 4π on a polar system. a. What are the max and min for x and y that allow you to see t whole graplh the Describe the shape of the graph. How is this related to the shape of the graph from #87 why does this make sense/or not make sense to you. b. r-2e Explain how the graph changes when we go up to θ S 8z? c. 10. Use the polar...
Starting New Processes We can create a new process from within another program using the system library function: #include <stdlib.h> int system ( const char *str ); The system function runs the command passed to it as str and waits for it to complete. The command is executed as if the command, $ sh -c str Use the "man" command to study both the "sh" and "system" command. i.e. Execute $ man sh $ man system For example, $ sh...
Experiment 1 - Coding ab 13DNA and RNA xperiment 1: Coding In this experiment, you will model the effects of mutations on the genetic code. Some mutations cause no structural or functional change to proteins while others can have devastating affects on an organism. Materials Red Beads Yellow Beads Blue Beads Green Beads Procedure: 1. Using the red, blue, yellow and green beads, devise and lay out a three color code for each of the following letters (codon). For example...
Q1. Write a C++ class called Time24h that describes a time of the day in hours, minutes, and seconds. It should contain the following methods: • Three overloaded constructors (one of which must include a seconds value). Each constructor should test that the values passed to the constructor are valid; otherwise, it should set the time to be midnight. A display() method to display the time in the format hh:mm:ss. (Note: the time can be displayed as 17:4:34, i.e. leading...
You are required to choose a company which currently using the Absorption Costing System in determining the product and selling price. Make the research on whether they are ready to implement a new costing system called Activity Based Costing (ABC). Your written report must include the followings: 1. Introduction / Background of the company. - Company profile, mission, vision, organizational chart, business core and etc. (5 marks) 2. i. The introduction to the Absorption Costing system. ii. Should provide...
3. You're so thrilled by your geometric and designing capabilities (see problems 1 and 2) that you decide to design a thin dinner plate that on your blueprint covers the region between the r-axis and the curve To impress the friends, you decide to make two versions of the plate and exhibit them by holding them up on a single finger. In order to do this, you need to calculate the center of mass of each. (a) (5 points) One...
