Prepare a short written lecture that describes Big Endian, Little Endian and the advantages and disadvantages of each approach.
Solution:
Little Endian and Big Endian are two ways of storing multi-byte data-types ( int, float, etc) in computers.
Big Endian:
In Big Endian, the MSB (Most Significant Byte) of the data is placed at the byte with the lowest address. The left-most byte is the MSB that carries the greatest numerical value.
Little Endian:
In Little Endian, the LSB (Least Significant Byte) of the data is placed at the byte with the lowest address. The LSB is the right-most bit in a string, it is called that because it has the least effect on the value of the binary number.
These concept can better understand with the help of following diagram:
Advantages of Big Endian:
Big-Endian disadvantages:
1) Reading a value of the wrong word size will result in an incorrect value; when done on little-endian architecture, it can sometimes yield a correct result.
2) Most big-endian architectures (non-Intel) do not allow words to be written on non-word address boundaries (odd addresses). Intel allows odd address reads and writes (they get broken into 2 separate operations) which makes it easier for programmers, but more difficult for hardware designers.
Advantages of Little Endian:
Disadvantages of Little Endian:
Major performance disadvantage for little-endian machines since you have to keep reversing the byte order when working with large graphical elements.

5.What are the advantages and disadvantages of traveling light, of producing just barely enough documentation for your system? Consider three scenarios: the original development team stays on to continue working on the system; the original development team changes slowly over time with some people leaving and some new people coming on to the team; and the original development team disperses and the system is assigned to another team to maintain and support. How light can you travel in each of...

Describe the differences between paper chromatography and TLC. Give two advantages and two disadvantages of each method for analysis. In order to prepare for a column chromatography separation of 3 ink dye components, you have run a TLC experiment with three possible solvent mixtures. These are the results: Acetone:Hexane in 1:1 ratio gave the following distances: solvent=4.2cm, pigment #1=3.8cm, pigment #2=1.7cm, and pigment #3=1.3cm Acetone:Hexane in 2:1 ratio gave the following distances: solvent=4.3cm, pigment #1=3.8cm, pigment #2=2.1cm, and pigment...
