Approximation of quarter circle using Bezier curve

Determine the Bezier curve of order 3 that approximates a quarter circle centered at (0,0), (1,0), (0,1). a) Calculate the coordinate of the middle point on the Bezier curve and on the arc and compare them. b) Plot both curves

Queuing Analysis

(a) Consider a coffee counter with a single server at which tired students arrive according to a Poisson process. Let the mean arrival rate be two students per ten minutes and assume the serving time is exponentially distributed with an average of 180 seconds per student. 1. What is the average queue length? 2. How long does a student have to wait in the queue? 3. Find the average queue length and waiting time in the queue if the service time decreases to 120 seconds per student. (b) The owner of a shop observes that on average 18 customers per hour arrive and there are typically 8 customers in the shop. What is the average length of time each customer spends in the shop?

Arithmetic

6.5 A half adder is a combinational logic circuit that has two inputs, x and y, and two outputs, s and c, that are the sum and carry-out, respectively, resulting from the binary addition of x and y. (a) Design a half adder as a two-level AND-OR circuit. (b) Show how to implement a full adder, as shown in Figure 6.2a, by using two half adders and external logic gates, as necessary. (c) Compare the longest logic delay path through the network derived in Part (b) to that of the logic delay of the adder network shown in Figure 6.2a.
