a.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Frames have constant length (L) = kRS
Where;
k – Constant value
R – Transmission rate
S – Length of the slot
Consider that the propagation delay is less than the length of the slot.
To find: Efficiency of the protocol for the fixed “N” (Nodes) and “p” (probability).
Solution:
Consider the random variable “A” that denotes the number of slots is P(A=m)=β(1-β)m-1. Here, β is the probability of success.
This is considered as the geometric distribution, which has the mean 1β. The consecutive wasted slots is W = A - 1. That is,
x = E[W]
Substitute the value of “W” in the above equation. We get,
x = E[A-1]x = 1-βββ=Np(1-p)N-1
Formula to find the efficiency is: x=kk+x
b.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Frames have constant length (L) = kRS
Where;
k – Constant value
R – Transmission rate
S – Length of the slot
Consider that the propagation delay is less than the length of the slot.
To find: To find the probability (p) that maxims the efficiency for the fixed number of nodes (N).
Solution:
By minimizing “x”, the efficiency can be maximized which is equivalent to maximize β
c.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Frames have constant length (L) = kRS
Where;
k – Constant value
R – Transmission rate
S – Length of the slot
Consider that the propagation delay is less than the length of the slot.
To find: Efficiency that approaches to infinity.
Solution:
We know that: Efficiency = kk+1-Np(1-p)N-1Np(1-p)N-1
Substitute 1e for Np(1-p)N-1
d.

This ALU will implement a bitwise left rotation. Forthis lab assignment you are not allowed to use Digital's Arithmetic components.IF YOU ARE FOUND USING THEM, YOU WILL RECEIVE A ZERO FOR LAB2!The ALU you will be implementing consists of two 4-bit inputs (named inA and inB) and one 4-bit output (named out). Your ALU must rotate the bits in inA by the amount given by inB (i.e. 0-15).Part-1: User InterfaceYou are provided an interface file lab2_part1.dig; start Part-1 from this file.NOTE: You are not permitted to edit the content inside the dotted lines rectangle. Part-1: ExampleIn the figure above, the input values that we have selected to test are inA = {inA_3, inA_2, inA_1, inA_0} = {0, 1, 0,0} and inB = {inB_3, inB_2, inB_1, inB_0} = {0, 0, 1, 0}. Therefore, we must rotate the bus 0100 bitwise left by00102, or 2 in base 10, to get {0, 0, 0, 1}. Please note that a rotation left is…arrow_forwardSolve this "Do not use AI tools.
