1. Describe how the Home Adress scheme works in Monile IP. 2. Explain the difference between a hard link and a soft link in UNIX systems. Are there things that can be done with a hard link that cannot be done with a soft link or vice versa? 3. Consider the behavior of two machines in a distributed system. Both have clocks that are supposed to tick 1000 times per millisecond. One of them actually does, but the other ticks only 990 times per millisecond. If UTC updates come in once a minute, what is the maximum clock skew that will occur? 4. Synchronizing clock time on a distributed system may not guarantee that an event A preceded an event B if the timestamps ts(A) < ts(B). Briefly explain how vector clocks attempt to remedy this situation and briefly describe how they work. 5. Suppose that we have three processors P0, P1, and P2, with vector clocks (4,3,5), (3,5,3) and (1,3,6) respectively. Suppose P0 sends a message to P1, and P1 subsequently sends a message to P2. Show the vector clocks after these events. . 6. a) Describe how mutual exclusion can be enforced by possession of a TOKEN. b) If we assume that no processor fails, or goes into an infinite loop, explain how this TOKEN scheme can guarantee fairness (non-starvation). c) If we don’t assume that the system is failure-free, explain how blocking while waiting for a TOKEN request to be fulfilled can lead to a problem. d) Suggest how to remedy this problem.

You're playing this game with other ACTL1101 students. The game starts by rolling 5 fair dice at once. Each round, you must choose at least one die to "freeze" (keep its current number). Then, you re-roll the remaining dice. This process continues until all dice are frozen, and it must be completed within a maxim um of 5 rounds. Whoever maximizes the total value shown on the frozen dice wins. After some thought, you've developed a strategy to help players maximize their total score. The strategy includes specific rules on how many and which dice to freeze each turn. After rolling the dice, arrange the dice values from lowest to highest. Always freeze the die with the highest value from that round. Then, decide whether to freeze additional dice based on their values. If you decide not to freeze any more dice, re-roll the ones with lower values and continue the game. Imagine you start with 5 random dice. What's the expected value on the frozen dice in the final stage? (This is the important question)

Note that the GAAT sequence is repeated twice on the father's side and three times on the mother's side (the sides of each chromosome are often not the same length). Equivalently, we could say that the CTTA sequence is repeated. Why is that? (G always pairs with C, and A always pairs with T).

4.1 Point P lies in a rigid body that rotates at angular velocity $\omega = \hat{i}10 - \hat{j}20 + \hat{k}30$ and angular acceleration $\alpha = -\hat{i}20 - \hat{j}40 + \hat{k}80$. The body rotates about fixed point $O_1$, and the radius vector $O_1P$ is given by $\vec{r} = -\hat{i}50 + \hat{j}100 - \hat{k}30$. Find the acceleration of P. Unit vectors $\hat{i}$, $\hat{j}$, and $\hat{k}$ lie in a fixed coordinate system. 4.2 Repeat Problem 4.1 for $\vec{r} = -\hat{i}40 - \hat{j}80 + \hat{k}100$.
