have known then was how often we would have to update the social contract as these technologies rapidly change. Information technologies change quickly and move in and out of fashion at a bewildering pace. This makes it difficult to try to list them all and catalog the moral impacts of each. The very fact that this change is so rapid and momentous has caused some to argue that we need to deeply question the ethics of the process of developing emerging technologies (Moor 2008). It has also been argued

510.6401 Design and Analysis of Algorithms January 21‚ 2008 Problem Set 1 Due: February 4‚ 2008. 1. In the bin packing problem‚ the input consists of a sequence of items I = {1‚ . . . ‚ n} where each item i has a size‚ which is a real number 0 ≤ ai ≤ 1. The goal is to “pack” the items in the smallest possible number of bins of unit size. Formally‚ the items should be partitioned in disjoint subsets (bins)‚ such that the total size in each bin is at most 1. The first fit heuristic scans the items

An algorithm‚ according to the Random House Unabridged Dictionary‚ is a set of rules for solving a problem in a finite number of steps. One of the fundamental problems of computer science is sorting a set of items. The solutions to these problems are known as sorting algorithms and rather ironically‚ “the process of applying an algorithm to an input to obtain an output is called a computation” [http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Algorithm.html]. The quest to develop the most memory efficient and

Design of Algorithms Question 1- Describe the following: Well known Sorting Algorithms Divide and Conquer Techniques Answer: Well known Sorting Algorithms We know the following well - known algorithms for sorting a given list of numbers: Ordered set: Any set S with a relation‚ say‚ ≤ ‚ is said to be ordered if for any two elements x and y of S‚ either x ≤ y or x ≥ y is true. Then‚ we may also say that (S‚ ≤) is an ordered set. 1. Insertion sort The insertion sort‚ algorithm for sorting

and OPT algorithms (other than looking backward versus forward in time) is that the FIFO algorithm uses the time when a page was brought into memory‚ whereas the OPT algorithm uses the time when a page is to be used. If we use the recent past as an approximation of the near future‚ then we can replace the page that has not been used for the longest period of time (see Fig. 9.14). Figure 9.14: LRU page-replacement algorithm. This approach is the least-recently-used (LRU) algorithm. The result

When all step costs are equal‚ g(n) ? depth(n)‚ so uniform-cost search reproduces breadth-first search 7- Depth-first search is a special case of best-first tree search.

INTRODUCTION: Trial balance is a statement which shows debit balances and credit balances of all accounts in the ledger. Since‚ every debit should have a corresponding credit as per the rules of double entry system‚ the total of the debit balances and credit balances should tally (agree). In case‚ there is a difference‚ one has to check the correctness of the balances brought forward from the respective accounts. Trial balance can be prepared in any date provided accounts are balanced. DEFINITION
