How would you test a computer program? releasing the program and waiting for user input
running the program with test data to see if outcomes are as expected
seeing how fast the program runs

rethinking the logic of the program code

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.)

Local area networks use many of the same network technologies and the internet, only on a smaller scale. devices that access lans are equipped with a network interface that contains circuitry for wireless or wired connections. devices also have a physical address, in addition to the ip addresses acquired from a dhcp server. the most popular wired technology is . the most popular wireless technology is , which can be configured as a(n) or star topology. setting up a lan and configuring its router is fairly easy. the first step is to change the standard to one that is secure. next, create a(n) that uniquely identifies the network by name. it is also important to activate wireless to prevent wireless signals from being intercepted during transmission. a limited-access network can be created for visitors to use. by activating , the router will be able to assign ip addresses to each device that joins the network. to connect to a secure lan that is protected by encryption, an encryption , or password, is required. lans can be used to access data collected by iot devices and the networks that tie these devices together. technologies such as rfid, nfc, bluetooth smart, zigbee, and z-wave offer -power links, essential for battery-powered devices that can’t expend excess amounts of energy transmitting data.

Carlos, an algebra teacher, is creating a series of powerpoint presentations to use during class lectures. after writing, formatting, and stylizing the first presentation, he would like to begin writing the next presentation. he plans to insert all-new content, but he wants to have the same formatting and style as in the first one. what would be the most efficient way for carlos to begin creating the new presentation? going under the file tab and opening the first presentation, deleting all content from each page, and adding new content going under the file tab and clicking on new in the left pane, then choosing new from existing going under the design tab and clicking on themes, then selecting the theme that was used for the first template going under the design tab and opening the template that was created for the first presentation
