A production line has three machines A, B, and C, with reliabilities of .90, .95, and .91, respectively. The machines are arranged so that if one breaks down, the others must shut down. Engineers are weighing two alternative designs for increasing the line’s reliability. Plan 1 involves adding an identical backup line, and plan 2 involves providing a backup for each machine. In either case, three machines (A, B, and C) would be used with reliabilities equal to the original three.

a. Compute overall system reliability under Plan 1. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

Instructions

In this assignment, you will be practicing the Java OOP skills we've learned this week in implementing a customized mutable Array class. Please read the following requirements carefully and then implement your own customized Array class:

=== 1) Basic (100' pts total) ===

Your Array class must provide the following features:

--1.1) (20' pts) Two constructors. One takes the input of the initialized capacity (int) and create the underlying array with that capacity; the other takes no input and creates an array that can hold a single element by default (that is, init capacity == 1);

--1.2) (20' pts) Getters and setters and basic methods we discussed during the class including: getCapacity(), getSize(), set(int index), get(int index), isEmpty();

--1.3) (20' pts) CRUD operations we discussed during the class including: add(int index), addLast(), addFirst(), remove(int index), removeLast(), removeFirst(), removeElement(int target), removeAll(int target);

--1.4) (20' pts) Supports generic types;

--1.5) (20' pts) Mutable, that is when add element exceeding its capacity, it can resize to accommodate the change.

=== 2) Bonus (20' pts total) ===

2.1) (10' pts) Implement a (private or public) swap(int a, int b) method that swaps the two elements in the index a and b if a and b are both admissible; also a public reverse() method that reverses the order of stored elements in-place (means, no additional spaces are allocated).

2.2) (10' pts) A public void sort() method sorts the stored elements in ascending order inO(nlog(n)) time.

[hint]: Quicksort or Merge sort

Chipper dog kennel's estimates an annual consumption of dog food at 2000 lbs. per year. The manager at Chipper dog kennel estimates a fixed cost of placing an order at $10 and holding costs estimates are based on a 15% annual interest rate. The supply company charges $50 per lb. for orders less than 500 lbs., $49 per lb. for orders of 500 or more but fewer than 1000 lbs.; and $48 per lb. for orders of 1000 lbs or more.

  1. What is the largest realizable EOQ?
  1. What is the optimal order size and the annual cost associated with placing that order?

  1. Based on the optimal order size, how many orders are placed per year?

  1. Based on the optimal order size, what is the time between orders?

  1. The above 10 jobs have just arrived. Use Johnson’s rule to determine the optimal sequence to schedule the jobs. If there is more than one optimal sequence, show them all.

E

  1. Draw a Gantt chart for your schedule. If there is more than one optimal sequence, show anyone of them.
  1. Calculate the average flow time.
  1. If you are allowed to split the last job in the sequence (pay attention, not necessarily the
    1. last job in the table) into two equal halves. For example, a job spends 6 hours in X and 4 hours in Y can be split into two jobs of 3 hours in X and 2 hours in Y. Without changing the sequence, do you think this arrangement is quicker? Why or why not?
  2. The company has received four special jobs. These jobs have to go through sketching (Process X), colouring (Process Y) and then printing and coating (Process Z) in sequence. Each of the processes is operated by a dedicated designer. What is the optimal sequence to schedule the jobs? Show your steps. [hint: self-study is required]

Q. You are an attorney working for a large law firm. Anthony, Paul and Silvio retain you to represent diem. With the material that you studied in the Chapters, prepare an essay explaining the issues presented. Be sure to explain the Courts (Federal or State) to which the matters could be brought and why, and the various legal issues that you studied with respect to the fact pattern. Hint: The best way to answer this essay is to take each set of facts the each paragraph, and explain the law as it applies to the facts.

You are an attorney working for a large law firm. Anthony, Paul and Silvio retain you to represent them. With the material given prepare an essay explaining the issues presented. Be sure to explain the courts to which the matters could be brought and why and the various legal issues that you find in the fact pattern. Anthony a New Jersey resident and owner of a waste disposal company in New Jersey decided to expand his business to the five boroughs of New York City. On a particular Sunday afternoon Anthony and some of his employees drove in the company SUV across the Bridge and headed to a meeting in the Queens with a local Queens based waste disposal company in order to enter into a joint venture for the collection of commercial waste. The SUV was traveling at approximately 30 miles per hr on the side streets of the Queens as it headed to the meeting. tony was driving the car and had his employees, Paul and Silvio (all NJ residents) sitting in the back seat of the vehicle. As Tony left the Long Island Expressway at the Utopia Parkway ramp he stopped at a traffic light. A truck travelling from behind was apparently traveling over the speed limit and was unable to stop in time. Tony's SUV was "rear ended" by the truck. The truck was owned by a local fireworks company, a New York domestic corporation and contained fireworks for the upcoming 4th of July display in the East River. Paul and Silvio sustained injuries as a result of the car crash. They were immediately hospitalized. The SUV was "totaled" and could not be repaired due to the extensive damage. The damage to the SUV ( a specially designed Porsche) was $85000. The cost of the hospitalization to Paul and Silvio was $15000 to each respectively. Anthony was able to keep his business appointment despite the fact that his entourage was hospitalized. During the business meeting, Anthony was angered that the Queens Company was not interested in the terms of the contract. He held a gun to the head of the Queens Company Vice President and as a result they agreed to enter into a joint venture agreement. His agreement with the Queens based company was as follows: THe Queens company could use his trucks for waste removal. they would pay him a monthly rental for the use of his trucks. the vice President then brought the agreement to the President of the Queens company for signature. The president was awoken from his sleep and presented with the agreement and was told he was signing a contract with a local vendor for truck parts. He signed the agreement without reading it as he was still groggy from being awoken. Two weeks later Paul, who owned a appliance store paid for an advertisement in the local Dollarsaver newspaper. The advertisement stated that the first person who entered the store at 9:00 am on Tuesday October 16, and who purchased a 19" plasmas TV set would receive a free outdoor barbeque set. Jim entered the store at 9:00 am on the 16th, purchased the 19" plasma TV and was advised that the appliance store had no barbeque sets in stock. The same day Paul signed an agreement with Sony to purchase all of the 19" plasma TVs that sony produces. Two weeks later, when the first shipment arrived, Paul rejects the shipment on the basis that there was no contract because the quantity was "too vague". Three weeks later Silvio decided to sell his home. He met with the potential buyers and advised them that the zoning for the house permitted the house to be used as a two family dwelling and that the property size was sufficient for the town to permit the construction of an in-ground pool. The real estate broker representing Silvo concurred. The broker was Silvio nephew. The purchasers , who wanted to convert the house to a two family dwelling in order to move their parent in, signed the agreement and relied upon the broker and Silvio's representation. Weeks later they met with the local Buildings Department for the town and were told that the zoning laws for the town nly permitted one family dwelling for their newly purchased house.
