Explain the following:

  • How many lenses do human eyes have and what are they called? How do they work to show us objects both close and far away? (Remember that simple glass lenses only have one focal length, unlike our eyes.) What happens as we age?
  • How do humans perceive color? Can our brains be fooled into thinking we see a color (let’s say yellow) when we are not actually looking at yellow light? (Hint: This relates to TV and computer screens.)

Discuss the eyes of other animals—let’s say cats, flies, and hummingbirds. What do these animals’ eyes do better than humans’? Why does the animal benefit from these different abilities? Does the animal lack visual abilities that humans have?

Provide the optimal Solution to the problems below using java code and include Time Complexity Analysis!

  1. Peaks and Valleys

In an Array of integers, a “peak” is an element which is greater than or equal to the adjacent integers and a “valley” is an element which is less than or equal to the adjacent integers. For example, the array {5, 8, 6, 2, 3, 4, 6}, {8, 6} are peaks and {5, 2} are valleys. Give an array of integers, sort the array into an alternating sequence of peaks and valleys.

EXAMPLE

INPUT:

                                {5, 3, 1, 2, 3}

                OUTPUT:

{5, 1, 3, 2, 3}

  1. Build Order

You are given a list of projects and a list of dependencies (Which is a list of pairs of projects, where the second project is dependent on the first project). All of a project’s dependencies must be built before the project is. Find a build order that will allow the projects to be built. If there is no valid build order, return an error.

EXAMPLE

                INPUT:

                                Projects: a, b, c, d, e, f

                                Dependencies: (a, d), (f ,b), (b, d), (f, a), (d, c)

                OUTPUT:

f, e, a, b, d, c

Assume that you are given a task to design a system for a vehicular network (or any cloud computing system). Briefly discuss security requirements for such a system. Outline a security architecture that could achieve the specified security goals in the scenario. You must include in your discussion of the security limitations of your approach. Note that this is intended to be an open-ended problem and your alternative security architecture may or may not exist as a specific product or system, so you are expected to think creatively about this solution. It is likely that you will need to undertake some research to assist in answering this part of the problem.

The claim status of a defendant (with regard to a given claim) is his or her latest claim status, which is the claim status with the highest claim sequence number.
The claim status of a claim is the claim status of the defendant having the lowest claim status of all the defendants involved in the claim. This makes the claim status a minimum of the maximums. For this sample data, the answer would be:
claim_id patient_name claim_status
==================================
10 'Smith' 'OR'
20 'Jones' 'AP'
30 'Brown' 'AP'
The problem is to write a sql query to find the claim status of each claim and display it.

The CEO of Fullbrix Dana Alcar (a 20-year veteran of Supply chain business frameworks) has given all powers to the running of the company to five Senior Vice-Presidents. Fullbrix is a Satellite spare parts provider that has four key clients. The company employs 200 employees and has a management team of 27. With five Senior Vice-Presidents running the company and running it well, the Board of Directors have begun an investigation on what the CEO is doing with her time. Initial investigations found that the CEO was building a broader base to support an alternative structure than the four key clients the company serves. The alternative would be 14 other companies that provide the same revenue as the present 4 companies. The 10-member Board of Directors are 50/50 split on their decision. One group wants to fire the present CEO and replace her with one of the Senior Vice Presidents and the other wants to keep things as they are.

20. Using terms discussed in class, can Dana Alcar’s leadership qualities help her to succeed in the long run?

21. Using terms discussed in class, how do you think it would be possible to convince the 5 Board Members to stop their petition to remove the CEO?

22. What can Dana Alcar do to create a convincing case to the Board of Directors to keep her on?
