 There are 5 resources, A, B, F, G, I, each of which can be acquired and released. There are two resource-user (or thread) types S and T.

 Each instance of S repeatedly executes this code sequence: It acquires I, then A, and then G. It releases A and G. It acquires B. It releases I and then B. 

Each instance of T repeatedly executes this code sequence: It acquires G and then F It releases G It acquires A It releases F and then A 

a) How many instances of S does it take to create deadlock if there are no instances of T? 

b) How many instances of T does it take to create deadlock if there are no instance of S?

c) There are instances of S and of T. How many instances of S and how many instances of T does it take to create deadlock? Note: In some cases, no deadlock is possible no matter how many instances/threads there are. 

Have you ever installed Linux an personal desktop or laptop? If you have, please explain why you selected the Linux distribution you installed. Describe what you like and don’t like about it. Include a URL or URLs (but not to its main website) to interesting articles about your distribution.

If you have not ever installed Linux, conduct research and pick a distribution that you would install. Explain the criteria you used for your choice and include the URL or URLs (but not to its main website) to interesting articles about the distribution you selected.

Looking for a research paper related to Cybersecurity, cloud computing and networking covering about 10-12 pages followed by a presentation with minimum of 15 slides. Pattern and procedure to write the research paper is provided in the attached doc. 

 This week’s reading centered around how Big Data analytics can be used with Smart Cities. This is exciting and can provide many benefits to individuals as well as organizations. For this week’s research assignment, You are to search the Internet for other uses of Big Data in RADICAL platforms. Please pick an organization or two and discuss the usage of big data in RADICAL platforms including how big data analytics is used in those situations as well as with Smart Cities. Be sure to use the UC Library for scholarly research. Google Scholar is the 2nd best option to use for research.
