Consider a world on which each individual belongs to a family of six, each family resides in its own home, each house has a specific address and every person in a certain house is given a unique name.Assume that this world has a postal service providing letters from source to destination. The postal service needs (1) the letter to be in an envelope and (2)that the address (and nothing else) of the destination house be clearly shown on the envelope. Suppose each family has a delegated member who receives letters for the other family members and distributes them. The letters do not actually give the receivers of the letters a hint.a. Would the postal service.ever have to open the envelope and inspect the letter and include the service under your protocol?

- If p=T, q=unknown and r=F, what is p ∨ r ∧ q?arrow_forwardFor a Turing machine M, (M) refers to the binary representation of M. For a Turing machine M, L(M) contains the set of all strings accepted by M. For a Turing machine M and an input x € {0,1}*, Steps(M, x) refers to the number of steps taken by M to execute on x before it halts. Here, one step of execution of M on x = one movement (left or right) of the tape head. For a Turing machine M and an input x = {0,1}*, we define the following: ReachCells(M,x) = {i : M reaches ith tape cell when M is executed on x} Informally, it contains all locations on the tape that are visited when M is ecuted on x. The leftmost location on the tape is the first tape cell, the location next to it is the second tape cell, and so on. A string w₁ is an anagram of w2 if w₁ can be obtained by rearranging the alphabets of w2. Formally, if w₁ is an n length string, wê is called an anagram of w₁ if there exists a permutation à on n elements such that π(w₁) = W2.arrow_forwardLet B(x) mean x is a bird, let W(x) mean x is a worm, and let E(x,y) mean x eats y. Find an English sentence to describe the following expression: Vx Vy (E(x, y) –→ B(x) ^ W (y))arrow_forward
- Which of the following is true of intimate distance in the United States? It is occurs only in private situations, not in public. Its meaning is influenced by other nonverbal communication, such as staring impersonally. It is the distance from about one-half feet to four feet. It has an instinctive symbolic meaning in all cultures.arrow_forwardGiven N = (Q, {a, b}, δ, q0, F) is an NFA that recognizes language L. Define a new language concatenate(L) that is formed by concatenating symbol a to the end of every string in L. That is, concatenatea(L) = {wa | w ∈ L(N)}. Please construct an NFA N′ with exactly one accepting state that recognizes language concatenate(L). All you need to do is fill in the missing parts in the definition below. N′ = (Q′ , {a, b}, δ′ , q′ 0 , F′ ) where (a) Q′ = (b) q ′ 0 = (c) F ′ = (d) δ ′ is defined as follows:arrow_forwardRace conditions are possible in many computer systems. Consider an accounting system of an organization where multiple users have access to an account to which they can either deposit or withdraw from: deposit(amount) and withdraw(amount). These two functions are passed the amount that is to be deposited or withdrawn from the account balance. Assume that Mary and Joe are employees who have access to this account. Currently, the balance in the account is $3000. If Mary executes deposit(500) and simultaneously Joe executes withdraw(300) from the account, describe how a race condition is possible and what might be done to prevent the race condition from occurring. Show the possible balances with race condition and when race condition is prevented.arrow_forward
- #3arrow_forwardConsider a self-driving car travelling at 50 MPH. Suppose a stop sign recognition algorithm takes 15 seconds to classify a STOP sign with an acceptable accuracy, and it takes 5 seconds for the car to come to a complete stop once the break is applied, determine the distance (in feet) from the STOP sign should the recognition algorithm start analyzing the stop sign. (1 mile = 5280 feet)arrow_forwardConsider the following languages over the alphabet Σ = {a, b, c}.arrow_forward
