Multi-user operating systems are used on large mainframe computers. A mainframe computer system has one very powerful processing unit‚ which may contain many microprocessors. Many users will all share this processing unit. They use terminals (a keyboard and a monitor) to access the mainframe computer. A multi-user operating system lets

Ever since the development of the ENIGMA (the first digital computer)‚ computers have inspired our imagination. In this period came the World War II code breaking machine designed by Alan Turing‚ and Von Neuman’s ENIAC which can be called dinosaurs compared to present day PCs. In the earlier days‚ computers were so huge that it took an entire building‚ or at least a floor to occupy one. Computers of that era were very slow by today’s standards. In the non-ending struggle to increase

RAW: _______ /63 pts 1. Explain the operation of an encoder. (1 point) ________A device that converts a weighted numeric input line to an equivalent digital code‚ such as hex or octal.____________________________ 2. What does it mean when an encoder is a priority encoder? (1 point) _________The method used to handle multiple key closures. This means that logic establishes a rank order for the keys so that a key closure of lower priority will not change encoding of a higher priority key._______________________

Briefly outline some of the main models of oligopoly in which firms compete according to output. Hence‚ discuss the contention that non-collusion is the inevitable outcome of oligopoly. (2000 words) ‘Oligopoly is an industry structure characterized by a few firms producing all‚ or most‚ of the output of some good that may or may not be differentiated.book’ An oligopoly lies somewhere in between a monopoly (only one seller) and competition (many sellers). Firms are said to exhibit ‘strong mutual

Obviously‚ given their limited resources and available technology‚ as they use more of their resources for corn production‚ there are fewer resources available for breeding poultry. Maximum annual output options | Quantity of Corn(pounds) | Quantity of Poultry(pounds) | 1 | 1200 | 0 | 2 | 1000 | 300 | 3 | 800 |
