You have 3 dice. Dice A is a fair dice while Dice B and Dice C are not fair. The odd outcomes of Dice B are twice as likely as the even outcomes while the even outcomes of Dice C are twice as likely as the odd outcomes. Each dice is thrown 5,000 times independently and you will use Excel to simulate this experiment.

  1. Plot the histograms of the outcome from each dice and also the sum of the outcomes from the 3 dice. Comment on the shape of the histograms. Briefly comment on the histograms for the 3 dice individually - whether they are consistent with the theoretical results. For the sum of the outcomes from 3 dice (sum = 3,4,5,...,18), describe the distribution of the sum.
  2. Obtain the (empirical) probability distribution of the outcomes of the three dice in the form of a table. You can use Excel to construct this table.
  3. A member in your group repeats this experiment using three fair dice. He concludes that the result in 1.2 is identical to the experiment using Dice A, B and C. Do you agree with him? Give reasons as why. You can either obtain the theoretical values of the probabilities or empirical probabilities (recommended) of the outcomes from throwing the 3 fair dice 5000 times. Then compare the probability distributions to see whether they look like each other.

  1. The ability to taste the chemical, phenylthiocarbamide (PTC), is determined by a gene on chromosome 7 that shows dominant inheritance. PTC-like chemicals are found in vegetables like broccoli and cabbage. Tasters don’t enjoy eating these types of vegetables while non-tasters don’t notice this bitter taste in these vegetables. (T= ability to taste PTC; t= non-taster) Determine the probability that the following couples (a, b, and c) will have a non-taster child. Support your answer with a Punnett square.
    1. Two tasters, who are both heterozygous:
    1. A non-taster marries a taster who is homozygous:
    2. Two non-tasters:
    3. Can a non-taster have 2 biological parents that are both tasters?

(2) Companies like Symantec, McAffee, Trend Micro, Kaspersky, etc. provide enterprise-level malware protection. Choose a major anti-virus company and familiarize yourself with their product line. Using what you learned from your research create an executive presentation of 8-12 PowerPoint slides on the product and on how you would install an enterprise malware solution on a hypothetical network with 50 Windows servers and 2000 Windows 7 computers. Provide sufficient detail about hardware devices and software and where they would be installed. Create a high-level diagram to accompany your proposal that shows the layout of your software. It is not necessary to diagram your complete network, just a high level representation of it. For example, you could represent the 2000 Windows 7 computers with one Icon labeled Windows 7 Workstations (2000). However, if you include a security appliance that provides malware protection, it should be included as a separate icon. Also, indicate location of software components (clients, servers, databases, management tools, etc) on your diagram, as well.
