This is an Access Database assignment.

Researchers from the School of BioSciences have requested our help with one of their

experiments. They are performing behavioural experiments with zebrafish. At any one instance in

time there are a large number of zebrafish in the aquarium. For their particular experiment, the

biologist take a snapshot of the aquarium and then need to find the longest series of zebrafish such

the length of each fish along the horizontal direction in the aquarium is increasing. They also need

to know the number of zebra fish in this series.

For example, the snapshot of the aquarium resulted in fish lengths of [2, 5, 3, 7, 11, 1, 12, 4, 15, 14, 6, 16].

One possible longest series of increasing lengths in this case is [2, 3, 7, 11, 12, 14, 16] with 7 zebrafish.

We say one possible longest series of increasing lengths here because it is not necessarily unique.

For example, the length 14 in the output could be replaced with 15: [2, 3, 7, 11, 12, 15, 16] and also

be valid.

In this question you will consider algorithms for finding the longest series of increasing lengths

via the function LongestIncreasingLengths(A[0, · · · , n − 1]), as well as the size of this output

array.

(a) [1+2+1 = 4 Marks] Consider a recursive algorithm:

i [1 Mark]Write down a recurrence relation for the function LongestIncreasingLengths.

ii [2 Marks] Using this recurrence relation, write a recursive algorithm in pseudocode for

LongestIncreasingLengths that only calculates the array size of the longest series of

increasing lengths. You do not need to output the actual array containing the longest

series of increasing lengths in this part of the question. For the example above with input

A = [2, 5, 3, 7, 11, 1, 12, 4, 15, 14, 6, 16], the output should just be 7. The pseudocode should

be about 10 lines of code.

iii [1 Mark] What is the time complexity of this recursive algorithm? Justify your answer.

(b) [5+1+1 = 7 Marks]

i [5 Marks] Building on from your recursive algorithm in part (a), write down a dynamic

programming implementation in pseudocode for the function

LongestIncreasingLengths(A[0, · · · , n − 1]) to find the longest series of increasing

lengths. This should also output the size of the longest series of increasing lengths. The

pseudocode should be about 20 lines of code.

ii [1 Mark] Explain how the recurrence relation used for your dynamic programming imple-

mentation involves overlapping instances.

iii [1 Mark] What is the time complexity of your algorithm and how much auxiliary space

was required. Justify your answer.

(c) [1+2 = 3 Marks] The time complexity of the recursive algorithm for LongestIncreasingLengths

was exponential, while the dynamic programming algorithm lead to a polynomial

time complexity (note, you need to determine that polynomial above). Here we will investigate

an algorithm for the function LongestIncreasingLengths that has a time complexity of

O(n log n).

Consider building a set of arrays for the input array A[0, · · · , n − 1]. As we scan along A, we

will compare A[i] with the final element in each array in this set. This comparison will satisfy

the following conditions:

(1) If A[i] is smaller than the final element in each array, start a new array of size 1 with A[i].

(2) If A[i] is larger than the final element in each array, copy the longest array and append

A[i] to this new array.

(3) If A[i] is in between, find the array with the final element that is greater than A[i] and

replace that element with A[i].

i [1 Mark] Write down the set of arrays that satisfy these rules for the input array

A = [0, 8, 4, 12, 2, 10, 6, 14, 1, 9, 5, 13, 3, 11, 7, 15].

ii [2 Marks] Building from these conditions, explain how an algorithm for the function

LongestIncreasingLengths could run with time complexity O(n log n). You may make

use any algorithm introduced in the lectures to help you with your explanation. Note: you

do not have to write this algorithm in pseudocode. We are expecting that you write a short

paragraph or a short list of bullet points describing the important steps of the algorithm

to explain the time complexity.

Hint: what if you only consider the final elements of this set of arrays as a single array?

Find a peer-reviewed scholarly journal article discussing government planning and/or entrepreneurial innovation. Complete a review of the article by writing a 2-3 page overview of the article. This will be a detailed summary of the journal article, including concepts discussed and findings. Additionally, find one other source (it does not have to be a peer-reviewed journal article) that substantiates the findings in the article you are reviewing. 

You should use the UC library (https://www.ucumberlands.edu/library) and/or Google Scholar to find these types of articles (https://scholar.google.com/ )

Once you find the article, you will read it and write a review of it.  This is considered a research article review.

Your paper should meet these requirements: 

• Be approximately 3-4 pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.
• Follow APA 7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
• Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find resources.
• Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

In 500 words or more, consider this statement: For cloud computing to become multi-jurisdictional, it must be separated from politics.

Use at least three sources. Use the Research Databases available from the Danforth Library not Google. Include at least 3 quotes from your sources enclosed in quotation marks and cited in-line by reference to your reference list.  Example: “words you copied” (citation) These quotes should be one full sentence not altered or paraphrased. Cite your sources using APA format. Use the quotes in your paragaphs.   Stand alone quotes will not count toward the 3 required quotes.

Within the Discussion Board area, write 400-600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear and use examples to reinforce your ideas. Focus on the following questions:

• Describe the differences in the content and structure of a qualitative literature review as compared to a quantitative literature review. (Remember that the literature review is the second chapter of a dissertation.  Limit your response to differences in the literature review only, and not the entire paper.) 

This week’s journal article focus on the how positive team culture can correct the impact of lagging leadership creativity. Additionally, we discussed how digital transformation leaders in regard to artificial intelligence (AI).  After reviewing the reading, please answer the following questions:

1. What is your definition of AI?  Please explain.
2. What is your opinion of AI, is the technology currently available? Why or why not?
3. Please note at least four AI technologies, explain if they are truly AI or something else.  Thoroughly explain your answer.
4. How is AI perceived as different in various industries and locations? Please explain.

Be sure to use the UC Library for scholarly research. Google Scholar is also a great source for research.  Please be sure that journal articles are peer-reviewed and are published within the last five years.

The paper should meet the following requirements:

• 3-5 pages in length (not including title page or references)
• APA guidelines must be followed.  The paper must include a cover page, an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
• A minimum of five peer-reviewed journal articles.

The writing should be clear and concise.  Headings should be used to transition thoughts.  Don’t forget that the grade also includes the quality of writing.

Write a single page on the below

1. Discuss what performance management is and how it influences effective teams.
2. Define leadership behaviors and note which behaviors are beneficial at specific organizational activities (example: project planning, leading coworkers, etc…). Please note at least five organizational activities and be specific when responding.
3. Note at least two organizational capabilities and compare and contrast each.

Use  at least one scholarly (peer-reviewed) resource.
