 PART II

Question No. 2. (CLO – 2) (1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4 Marks)

Consider you have given to design a model of an early flood warning system, which you need to
design an experiment, which uses a satellite images and statistical data of last 20 years. Now
describe the following

i. What type of technical team will you required to design a model of such system. Describe
and mention at least two teams, maximum 2 line for each team.
ii. Who will be the end user of above mention system. Describe and mention at least two end
users, maximum 2 line for each end user.
iii. What type of data will you collect before design the model of a system. Describe and
mention at least two types of data, maximum 2 line for each data types.
iv. Which type of modelling you use to design such system. Describe and mention at least two
types of models, maximum 2 line for each type.

Consider an anti- aircraft and anti-missile system, which uses radar and GPS for detecting the
incoming enemy missile or aircraft. Now describe the following

i. Identify and describe at least two factor involved in experimenting the system model.
ii. Describe the levels of above mention factors.
iii. Describe at least two response on which the experimentation can be concluded either
successful of unsuccessful.

Question No. 4. (CLO – 2) (1 + 2 = 3 Marks)

1) A model of a system need to conduct the experiment, there are three factors factor-A (with 3
levels), factor-B (with 2 levels), and factor-C (with 2 levels).
i. Write a MATLAB code to calculate total number of runs for the experiment
ii. Show the output of the MATLAB code.

2) Consider a mathematical model for a system express with mathematical equation given below,
where X, and Y are input factors and Z is the output response.

𝑍𝑛 = 𝑋 ∗ (𝑌𝑛 + 3)

Now plot graphs between Zn at y-axis and X at x-axis, if X is 𝑋 = [2,4,6,8].

i. Calculate Z1 when Y1 = 2, and plot graph between X and Z1.
ii. Calculate Z2 when Y2 = 4, and plot graph between X and Z2.
iii. Compare these two graphs and identify and explain if there any relation exits between X
and Y.
iv. If relation exist between X and Y, explain how much degree of relation there is. If no
relation exit between X and Y, then explain can the factor Y or X discarded since it has not
effect on each other.

(Hint: you can also use MATLAB for plotting using plot function e.g. plot(X, Z1, X, Z2)).
