Peer-to-peer systems typically depend on untrusted and volatile computer systems for most of their resources. Trust is a social phenomenon with technical consequences. Volatility (i. e. unpredictable availability) also is often due to human actions.

Write an application that allows a user to enter the names and birthdates of up to 10 friends. continue to prompt the user for names and birthdates until the user enters the sentinel value “zzz” for a name or has entered 10 names, whichever comes first. when the user is finished entering names, produce a count of how many names were entered, and then display the names. in a loop, continuously ask the user to type one of the names and display the corresponding birthdate or an error message if the name has not been previously entered. the loop continues until the user enters “zzz” for a name. save the application as birthdayreminder.java.

You will be given two character arrays of the same size, one will contain a number of ships. ships will move around the character array based on which way they are facing and the route they are on. routes are given in the other array. the route consists of '-' and '|' for straight paths, '\' and '/' for curves, and '+' for intersections. there are ships on these routes. ships always face a direction, '^' for up, '> ' for right, 'v' for down, and '< ' for left. any time the ships hit a '\' or a '/' it will turn as you would expect a ship to turn (e.g. a '^' that moves into a '/' will turn right). at an intersection, ships will always continue straight through. all ships move at the same speed, ships take turns moving and all ships move during one 'tick'. the one in the most top left goes first, followed by those to its right, then the ones in the next row. it iterates along the rows and then down the columns. each ship moves one space on its turn moving along the route. your function needs to return the position of the first collision between two ships and the number of ticks before the crash occurred.

Consider a direct-mapped cache with 216 words in main memory. the cache has 16 blocks of 8 words each. it is a word-addressable computer (rather than a byte-addressable computer which we normally discuss). (a) how many blocks of main memory are there? (b) what is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache, that is, what are the sizes of the tag, cache block, and block offset fields (if they apply)? (c) to which cache block will the memory reference db6316 map?
