Question 4

Incorrect

Mark 0.00 out of 1.00

This means the distributed computation consists of a set of processes, and processes only perform computations upon receiving one
or more messages.

Select one:

a. Deadlock Detection 
b. Diffusing Computation
c. Simulation Computation

Question 5
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

A computation that models the behavior of some real or imagined system over time.

Select one:

a. Distributed Simulation
b. Computer Simulation 
c. Parallel Simulation

Question 6

Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

These are simulations that embed pilots, tank operators, commanding officers and their staffs, and the like, into an environment to
train personnel for actual combat.

Select one:

a. War gaming Simulation

b. Training Environment 
c. Test and Evaluation

Question 7

Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

A distributed computer's characteristic that is important because many distributed simulators are constructed by interconnecting
existing sequential simulators operating on specific workstations.

Select one:

a. Heterogeneity 
b. Deadlock
c. Communication Controller

Question 8

Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

This is responsible for sending and receiving messages between nodes and typically transfers messages directly between that node's
memory and the inter-connection network.

Select one:

a. Shared-memory Multiprocessors
b. Interconnection Network
c. Communications Controller 

Question 9
Incorrect

Mark 0.00 out of 1.00

The condition where transaction A cannot complete until transaction B completes, but transaction B is blocked by transaction.

Select one:

a. Dependency on transaction
b. Deadlocking 
c. Cyclic dependency

Question 10

Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

An approach that eliminates the broadcast to notify the processors that a global synchronization has been achieved.

Select one:

a. Barrier synchronization
b. Butterfly barrier 
c. Tree barrier
