Amultiprocessor machine has 1024 processors. on this machine we map a computation in which n iterate values must be computed and then exchanged between the processors. values are broadcast on a bus after each iteration. each iteration proceeds in two phases. in the ļ¬rst phase each processor computes a subset of the n iterates. each processor is assigned the computation of k = n/p iterates, where p is the number of processors involved. in the second, communication phase each processor broadcasts its results to all other processors, one by one. every processor waits for the end of the communication phase before starting a new computation phase. let t c be the time to compute one iterate and let t b be the time to broadcast one value on the bus. we deļ¬ne the computation-to-communication ratio r as t c /t b . note that, when p = 1, no communication is required. at ļ¬rst, we use the premise of amdahlā€™s speedup (i. e., the same workload spread across an increasing number of processors). under these conditions: (a) compute the speedup as a function of p and r, for k = 1, 2, . . , 1024. (b) compute the maximum possible speedup as a function of p and r. (c) compute the minimum number of processors needed to reach a speedup greater than 1 as a function of p and r. second, we use the premise of gustafsonā€™s law, namely that the uniprocessor workload grows with the number of processors so that the execution time on the multiprocessor is the same as that on the uniprocessor. assume that the uniprocessor workload computes 1024 iterates. (d) what should the size of the workload be (as a number of iterates) when p processors are used, as a function of p and r? pick the closest integer value for the number of iterates. (e) reconsider (a)ā€“(c) above in the context of growing workload sizes, according to gustafsonā€™s law. third, we now consider the overhead needed to broadcast values over the bus. because of software and bus protocol overheads, each bus transfer requires a ļ¬xed amount of time, independent of the size of the transfer. thus the time needed to broadcast k iterate values on the bus by each processor at the end of each iteration is now t 0 + k Ɨ t b . (f) using the constant workload size assumption (as in amdahlā€™s law), what is the maximum possible speedup? (g) using growing workload size assumption (as in gustafsonā€™s law), what is the maximum possible speedup?

I'm thinking it's 2 you are asked to explain the earth's magnetic field. which is the best reply? 1. the earth's magnetic south is similar to the north pole of a magnet. 2. the earth's core has a strong magnetic charge similar to the south pole of a magnet. 3. the earth's geomagnetic south is similar to the south pole of a magnet. 4. the earth's magnetic charge is not centered at either pole; it varies based on location.

With the simplified model of the eye, what corrective lens (specified by focal length as measured in air) would be needed to enable a person underwater to focus an infinitely distant object? (be careful-the focal length of a lens underwater is not the same as in air! assume that the corrective lens has a refractive index of 1.62 and that the lens is used in eyeglasses, not goggles, so there is water on both sides of the lens. assume that the eyeglasses are 1.90
