Problem 3:
- Amdahl's Law is as applicable to software as it is to hardware.
An oft-cited programming truism states that a program spends 90% of
its time executing 10% of its code. Thus, tuning a small amount of
program code can often time have an enormous effect on the overall
performance of a software product. Determine the overall system
speedup if:
- 90% of a program is made to run 10 times as fast (900% faster).
Homework Answers
a. Given, The fraction enhanced F = 0.9
The speedup of the enhanced fraction S = 10 times
Overall Speedup => 
=> 
=> 5.26
Therefore, the overall speedup = 5.26

IT's About Business 4.1 The Heartbleed Bug What Is Heartbleed? OpenSSL, an open-source software package, is a popular type of transport layer security (TLS) software (discussed later in this chapter) that secures numerous websites around the world. Web servers use OpenSSL to encrypt sites. Such sites show up in browsers with a “lock” icon and the “https” prefix in the address bar. The encryption protects Internet sites offering banking, shopping, email, and other private communications. Roughly two out of three...

This case presents two phases of a large business transformation project involving the implementation of an ERP system with the aim of creating an integrated company. The case illustrates some of the challenges associated with integration. It also presents the obstacles facing companies that undertake projects involving large information technology projects.

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
