A program is divided into 3 blocks that are being compiled on 3 parallel computers. Each block takes an Exponential amount of ti

me, 5 minutes on the average, independently of other blocks. The program is completed when all the blocks are compiled. Compute the expected time it takes the program to be compiled.

Answer:

The answer is "15 minutes".

Explanation:

The time of compilation for one block with all three computers would be denoted by the Y_1,Y_2 and Y_3.

Of all them.

Y_i \sim Exp(\frac{1}{5}) \ for \ j = \ 1,\ 2,\ and\  3 and the average:

=\frac{1}{\lambda } \\ \\=5

Let,

Z=Y_1+Y_2+Y_3,  \\\\ then \ Z \sim   \ Gamma (  \alpha =3,  \ \ \lambda =\frac{1}{5})

since independent of the total sum and the gamma distribution of parameters, \alpha = \ n \ \ and \ \lambda are accompanied by exponential variables.  

Now the predicted value of Z can be found.

\bold{Formula:} \\\\ \to E(Z)=\frac{\alpha}{\lambda }\\\\

=\frac{3}{\frac{1}{5}}\\\\= 3 \times 5\\\\= 15\\

Therefore, it takes 15 minutes for the program to be compiled.

(Displaying a Sentence with Its Words Reversed) Write an application that inputs a line of text, tokenizes the line with String
Serjik [45]

Answer:

I am writing a JAVA and Python program. Let me know if you want the program in some other programming language.

import java.util.Scanner; // class for taking input from user

public class Reverse{ //class to reverse a sentence

public static void main(String[] args) { //start of main() function body

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); //create a Scanner class object

   System.out.print("Enter a sentence: "); //prompts user to enter a sentence

   String sentence = input.nextLine(); // scans and reads input sentence

   String[] tokens = sentence.split(" "); // split the sentence into tokens using split() method and a space as delimiter

   for (int i = tokens.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) { //loop that iterates through the tokens of the sentence in reverse order

       System.out.println(tokens[i]); } } } // print the sentence tokens in reverse order

Explanation:

In JAVA program the user is asked to input a sentence. The sentence is then broken into tokens using split() method. split method returns an array of strings after splitting or breaking the sentence based on the delimiter. Here the delimiter used is space characters. So split() method splits the sentence into tokens based on the space as delimiter to separate the words in the sentence. Next the for loop is used to iterate through the tokens as following:

Suppose the input sentence is "How are you"

After split() method it becomes:

How

are

you

Next the loop has a variable i which initialized to the tokens.length-1. This loop will continue to execute till the value of i remains greater than or equals to 0.

for (int i = tokens.length - 1; i >= 0; i--)

The length of first token i.e you is 3 so the loop executes and prints the word you.

Then at next iteration the value of i is decremented by 1 and now it points at the token are and prints the word are

Next iteration the value of i is again decremented by i and it prints the word How.

This can be achieved in Python as:

def reverse(sentence):

   rev_tokens = ' '.join(reversed(sentence.split(' ')))

   return rev_tokens

   

line = input("enter a sentence: ")

print((reverse(line)))

The method reverse takes a sentence as parameter. Then rev_tokens = ' '.join(reversed(sentence.split(' ')))  statement first splits the sentence into array of words/tokens using space as a delimiter. Next reversed() method returns the reversed sentence.  Next the join() method join the reversed words of the sentence using a space separator ' '.join(). If you want to represent the reversed tokens each in a separate line then change the above statement as follows:

rev_tokens = '\n'.join(reversed(sentence.split(' ')))  

Here the join method joins the reversed words separating them with a new line.

Simply input a line of text and call this reverse() method by passing the input line to it.

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Kanban System

Explanation:

Kanban can be regarded as one of Lean tools which is been designed to carry out reduction of the idle time in a production process. The idea or concept behind this Kanban system, is to make delivery of needs of the process needs at exactly the it needs it. Kanban can be reffered to as visual cards. Kanban can as well be explained as scheduling system that is used for lean manufacturing as well as just-in-time manufacturing. Taiichi Ohno, who was an industrial engineer at Toyota carried out development of kanban so that there could be an improved manufacturing efficiency. Kanban is considered as one method used to achieve JIT.

It should be noted that Kanban System is One tool of Lean that is a container, card, or visual limit that signals when work needs to be done or replenishment needs to be initiated .
