Disuccsion

The control of processes and threads are of deep concern by developers of all operating systems capable of handling “real or emulated” simultaneous computer activity. Threads are typically created by processes (initially invoked by the user or another process). Discuss how an operating system manages these processes and threads, how they are instantiated and discarded, how the activity is controlled, along with the respective advantages and disadvantages of both process and thread. Do not discuss MS Windows OS. Instead you may choose from Linux, UNIX, ROS, z/OS, or VM.

SQL ( fund of data systems)

Answer the following question:

SQL is a pervasive querying language. While there is one primary SQL dialect that all SQL RDBMS implementations must support, and that’s ANSI SQL, each database platform comes out with its own context. Each of these dialects has its own  DDL (Data Definition Language). DML (Data Manipulation Language). and DQL (Data Query Language). Other than for marketing purposes (to sell the product as unique), what is the value of creating a new variation of a SQL dialect. 

Provide an example of one SQL dialect as part of your write-up. 

Instructions:

This is a required assignment, worth 15 points. The assignment must be submitted by the due date. Late assignment are not allowed. 

You are required to submit a minimum of two postings. Points will be deducted for not fulfilling this minimum requirement.

Apply and use the basic citation styles of APA is required. Points are deducted per the rubric for this behavior.

Do not claim credit for the words, ideas, and concepts of others. Use in-text citation and list the reference of your supporting source following APA’s style and formatting. Points are deducted per the rubric for this behavior.

Do not copy and paste information or concepts from the Internet and claim that is your work. It will be considered Plagiarism and you will receive zero for your work. A second offense results in a zero for the course. A third is termination from the university.

data & file structures

Exercise 1: Write a function template midElement that takes an array A and its dimension N and returns the middle element of the array. In the main function, call the function template midElement to 1) an integer array of integers with 4 elements 2) An array of doubles with 5 elements and 3) an array of characters which dimension is entered by the user

____________________________________________

Exercise 2:

You have a situation in which you have 2 lists List1, and List2 with length L1

and L2 implemented as arrays. Write two member functions MergeEven that

will merge the even elements from both lists into one list EvenList and

MergeOdd that merges the odd elements from both lists into a list OddList. 

Research paper

Considering the importance of data in organization, it is absolutely essential to secure the data present in the database. What are the strategic and technical security measures for good database security? Be sure to discuss at least one security model to properly develop databases for organizational security. Create a diagram of a security model for your research paper.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

  • Be approximately 4-6 pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page. (Remember, APA is double spaced)
  • 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. 
  • Be clear and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

Final Project: US Naturalization Practice Test

Please note: It is just a given in our industry that your code has to run! If your code does not run, you will not receive any points.

You will be creating a PHP-driven web site that is a practice quiz for people taking the civics portion of the United States Naturalization Test. There are 100 possible questions for this portion of the test; however, in practice applicants are given only 10 questions, chosen randomly. An applicant must answer 6 out of 10 questions correctly to pass the civics portion of the naturalization test.

Your task is to use the 100 sample questions provided in the official Civics (History and Government) Questions for the Naturalization Test document. (Dr. Alfaro will provide a PHP code snippet with two arrays, one of questions and one of answers, which you may use.) Your application should display ten questions at random along with a text input box for each answer. The user should be able to input a short answer, and the script will compare the user’s answers against the correct answers. Be sure to convert any special characters to HTML!

When checking for correct answers, CASE SHOULD NOT MATTER. Also, your code should check to see if the answer string is included anywhere within the answer. So, if a correct answer is “Constitution”, any of the following answers should score as correct:

  • the constitution
  • our Constitution
  • The Constitution is the supreme law of the land
  • CONSTITUTION

It is up to you how you want to store and retrieve the questions. However, your project must meet these minimum requirements:

  1. Displays 10 questions chosen at random (by the PHP; not by you!) and ten corresponding text boxes for short answers.
  2. When the user submits the test, the user will see their grade and whether they passed or failed the practice exam (60% is passing). It will also indicate which questions the user got wrong so they can go back and study!
  3. Upon submission, the page should also display a date-time stamp stating when the exam was submitted.
  4. Your code must include an array, and this array must actually be used to create the quiz. (No creating an array that is never accessed!)
  5. Your code must contain a PHP include to show that you know how to do this.
  6. Your code must contain at least one function that is actually utilized in the application.
  7. Your code must utilize at least one loop (for, while, do-while, or foreach).
  8. On the page which displays the user’s score, there should be a link or button that allows the user to go back and take the quiz again with a new set of 10 random questions.
  9. Use semantic HTML code and best practices (an h1, at least one h2, alt text for images, etc.).
  10. Add CSS as appropriate to make this a professional-looking portfolio piece. (We may be showing this to clients in the capstone next term!)

NO SQL!! DO NOT USE SQL.
