department Data security – Lab # 1 Lab Description Set-UID is an important security mechanism in Unix operating systems. When a Set-UID program is run‚ it assumes the owner’s privileges. For example‚ if the program’s owner is root‚ then when anyone runs this program‚ the program gains the root’s privileges during its execution. Set-UID allows us to do many interesting things‚ but unfortunately‚ it is also the culprit of many bad things. Therefore‚ the objective of this lab is two-fold: • Appreciate

ESCI 1102 Lab 8 Population Change Directions: Listed below are this Learning Module lab questions to answer. When completed‚ upload this file back to the Lab dropbox (where you downloaded in the first place). FYI: I really like it when the answers are in a different format/color than the questions. It helps when grading. Part 1. Population Biology is an online virtual lab that will illustrate how competition affects population growth. Follow the instructions given. Two species of unicellular

Purpose: To find out the densities and to find out the name of the unknown metals. (Based on the extensive and intensive properties) Check up the words mass‚ volume‚ density‚ extensive properties‚ and intensive properties. Where do the units for mass and volume) come from and what do they mean? What is the density of distilled water? What is Archimedes principle? Does temperature affect the density of a solid? Liquid? Gas? Materials: Safety glasses‚ 10‚ 25 or 50 mL graduated cylinders

Reproductive Isolating Mechanisms In the 1940s‚ Ernst Mayr coined the term Biological Species Concept that was subsequently widely embraced by the scientific community. The definition stated that "Species are groups of actually or potentially interbreeding natural populations that are reproductively isolated from other such groups". Certain mechanisms are in place to prevent species from interbreeding with others and these are referred to as reproductive isolating mechanisms‚ which are biological

1. Compare the hash values calculated for example.txt that you documented during this lab. Explain in your own words why the hash values will change when the data is modified. They change to keep authentication and integrity. 2. Why are the MD5sum and SHA1sum hash values the same every time you calculate for the “example.txt” sample fi le? What if they were different when you re-calculated the hash value at the other end? These are the same to verify authentication and integrity.

and its use in molecular cloning. b. To become familiar with the concept of using green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a molecular tag for studying gene expression in bacteria and other organisms. c. To understand some of the mechanisms by which bacteria regulate gene expression. Introduction Genetic transformation is a process by which competent bacterial cells absorb DNA through their cell envelopes causing a change (i.e. a transformation) of their phenotypes. Some bacteria

In this lab we will make them be a prime example of osmosis‚ which is a transport mechanism. In this lab the problem being tested was what environment affects the mass of the potatoes the most. The independent variable is the environments used salt‚ water and iodine solution. The dependent variable is the mass of

EXPERIMENT 4.1 – SCOTCH YOKE MECHANISM BACKGROUND OF STUDY: Pure simple harmonic motion is produced by the Scotch Yoke mechanism when driven by an eccentric or crank. Its early application was on steam pumps but it is not suitable for high speeds due to the backlash in the scotch yoke. It is now mainly used in computing type applications where harmonic motion is required. The Scotch yoke is a mechanism for converting the linear motion of a slider into rotational motion or vice-versa. The piston or

Self-revelation in Auctioning using Game Theory Application of Game Theory in Auction design has been known for quite some time now. Vickrey Auction or Second price sealed bid auction is one particularly elegant and powerful instance of the same. It is very much like a normal auction with a slight twist which does the trick. The bidder with the highest bid amount wins the auction but he pays the second-highest bid. This rule gives the bidders an incentive to bid their true value. This sounds too
