Essentially the first real version of unix that ran on the very first IBM computers back in the 70's. It is claimed to have many similarites to BSD unix and over the years has been rewritten many times.
A program that reads and decodes comand line inputs as a program. Essentially a big list of command line inputs that run like any other program.
echo "enter first number: " read num1 echo "enter second number: " read num2 echo "enter third number: " read num3 echo "enter fourth number: " read num4 sum=`echo $num1+$num2+$num3+$num4 | bc` echo "The sum of the numbers is: $sum" product=`echo $num1*$num2*$num3*$num4 | bc` echo "The product of the numbers is: $product"
This is a sort of a filing system for unix that assigns a specific and permanent number to a process the entire time that process is in mrmory. Very handy if you want to kill the process later as this number gives you direct means of telling the OS what to kill.
ps command displays the processes aslong with their corresponding PIDs

This is a technique used by Unix's kernel in order to free up memory in times of extreme memory shortages or when a process has idled for a certain period of time.
This is a number that forces the Unix kernel to run more efficiently eith processes. The number inidicates to the kernel how often the individual process is used, therefore when the kernel sees a number indicating the process is used very often it targes that process and completes it more quickly than one of low priority.
This is a variable set to indicate that some condition in the program has been met.
If a useris chaecking for a certain condition such as the end of a file within a program, when the end of that file is reached the flag will be 'set.'
Databases that store a large magnitude of data so that an end user does not have to store it all locally. However, as the client needs large amounts of this data the bottleneck becomes the network.
A set of clients in a LAN that must send and receive large amounts of data in small amounts of time resulting in a need for a faster LAN.
State the course objective
In your own words, define what that objective entails.
State the method you will use for measuring successful academic/intellectual achievement of this objective.
Follow your method and obtain a measurement. Document the results here.
Reflect upon your results of the measurement to ascertain your achievement of the particular course objective.
Adjusts over wide ranges to changes in delays and throughput and still meet the needs of its applications.
Does not adapt if at all to changes in delays and throughput.
This is a smooth continuous signal and usually thought of in an electrical context. An advantage of analog is overall quality of a signal being better but analog is a lot harder to reproduce.
This mantains a constant level for some period of time and then abruptly changes. This is a poorer quality than analog but is easier to reproduce.
A data transmission that can only go one way on the medium
A television set. It can only receive signals from the cable company over the coax and display them on youe tv. It cannot receive input from you and senf it back to the cable company over the coax.
There is trnsmission both ways over a medium but the transmissions cannot take place both ways at the same time.
Walkie talkies allow two people to communicate both ways but they cannot communicate simultaneously.
In a wave refereing to data transfer this is the spot in the wave where most of the energy in the signal is caontained in a realatively narrow band of frequencies.
There is transmission both ways and at the same time.
A telephone allows two end users to communicate and they can also speak simultaneously and neither one of them gets cut out.
