Stanford rosenberg computing wants to establish an assembly line for producing a new product, the personal digital assistant (pda). the tasks, task times, and immediate predecessors for the tasks are as follows: task time (sec) immediate predecessors a 12 — b 15 a c 8 a d 5 b, c e 20 d rosenberg’s goal is to produce 180 pdas per hour. a. what is the cycle time? seconds b. what is the theoretical minimum for the number of workstations that rosenberg can achieve in this assembly line? c. can the theoretical minimum actually be reached when workstations are assigned? d. what is the efficiency of this assembly line assignment?

In this lab, you complete a python program that calculates an employee's annual bonus. input is an employee's first name, last name, salary, and numeric performance rating. if the rating is 1, 2, or 3, the bonus rate used is .25, .15, or .1 respectively. if the rating is 4 or higher, the rate is 0. the employee bonus is calculated by multiplying the bonus rate by the annual salary.

Suppose a cpu with a write-through, write-allocate cache achieves a cpi of 2. what are the read and write bandwidths (measured by bytes per cycle) between ram and the cache? (assume each miss generates a request for one block.)

Write a program that has a conversation with the user. the program must ask for both strings and numbers as input. the program must ask for at least 4 different inputs from the user. the program must reuse at least 3 inputs in what it displays on the screen. the program must perform some form of arithmetic operation on the numbers the user inputs. turn in your .py file as well as a screenshot of your program's output. include comments in your code to explain how it works an example program run might look like (have fun with this and be creative): ‘what is your name? ’ “josh” ‘, josh. what is your favorite color? ’ “green” ‘mine too. do you also like ice cream? ’ “no” ‘josh, how old are you? ’ “40” ‘ and how many siblings do you have? ’’ “3” ‘that means you are one of 4 kid(s). is green the favorite color of anyone else in your house? ’
