...Define the following concepts: data rate, error rate, bandwidth, handshaking procedure, and queuing delay. Data rate can be described as how quickly information can be exchanged between electronic devices. In terms of networking this can often be attributed to downloading and uploading. http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-data-rate.htm Error rate is when data is lost over transmission process. The more data lost the higher the error rate and therefore more unreliable the data transfer will be. Bandwidth is the range of frequencies that data can be transferred over any particular connection. Bandwidth is never associated with the actual speed of your connection but rather how much data your line can carry. A protocol such as TCP invokes the client and sever to exchange transport layer information with each other before any application specific data is transferred be tween the host and and server. This is called a handshake procedure and the idea is to alert both sides of incoming data transfer. http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-queuing-delay.htm Provide a brief, high-level description of how the Internet’s connection oriented service provides reliable transport. TCP is the protocol that provides applications with reliable data transfer that is typically associated with large data files and applications that require an acknowledgment of data. The way it does this is by a series of checks and the re transmission of data if packets are lost. Thus making sure...

...a. In determining the size of the angle between the hands on the clock, there must be a way for people to access an image of a clock. This tasks requires working memory because a person must be able to use the visuo-spatial sketchpad to recall what a clock looks like while they perform a task. It is also possible that the use of scanning would be able to demonstrate imagery. It would take longer to determine how big the angle is when they are further apart because you scan the clock more. So, when visualizing the difference between 4:10 and 9:23, it would take longer to visualize 9:23 than 4:10. This additional time shows that there must be some kind of image that is being referred to. b. The symbolic distance effect occurs when people are...

...PIN logging during transactions: As the data is passed between the PED and the card the data was read, by using the card’s public key the EMV chip inside the card will allow the PIN to be encrypted. The cards which are being used in the US does not encrypt the PIN as low cost EMV chips like SDA are being used and these cards do not support the encryption process. Whereas when updated cards are used they support the encryption of PIN and the transaction becomes secure, so the cards need to be capable of having all the operations of the public key. So when a card is swiped in the PED it fails in encrypting the PIN and the data is transmitted unencrypted which are used by the intruders to make fake cards. Processing a transaction without the PIN: [13]The EMV protocol generally can be performed in three stages which include the first stage which is the card authentication followed by cardholder verification and finally the transaction authorization. Card authentication stage verifies if the card holder is valid and if it is the right card which has been issued by the bank and if any details have been altered. The cardholder verification stage confirms the identity of the cardholder after he has entered the PIN and this stage verifies if the PIN entered by the person matches the PIN which is assigned to the card. The transaction authorization stage helps in confirming that bank where the card is linked to authorize the transaction. SDA cards were the type of cards issued by the banks...

...Unit 4 DQ #1: What are the major challenges and advantages of using software for qualitative data analysis? Answer Qualitative Analysis Software The first software programs allowing researchers to use a computer-based tool for their qualitative analysis was developed in the mid-1980s. Today, qualitative data analysis software is an established tool in the field of qualitative research. Many social scientists have increasingly adopted the use of computer software in collecting and analysing qualitative data. These software have been described as Computer Assisted or Aided Qualitative Data Analysis Software (CAQDAS) or Qualitative Data Analysis (QDA)(Ref). The CAQDS or QDA assist qualitative researchers to gain insights into qualitative data sets without suggesting interpretations. Based on a content analysis, the researcher can draw conclusions about the respective object of research (such as interview data). The growing literature on computer assisted qualitative data analysis software expresses both hopes and fears in terms of effective analysis of qualitative data and some of these are examined in the sections below Advantages of Using Qualitative Analysis Software Software tools for qualitative data and text analysis allow for easy...
