Although the following discussion focuses on the Black/White educational achievement gap the paper discusses trends in the gap between Black and White educational attainment, school achievement, and contextual factors from the beginning of the 20th century to the present time. I believe mobility plays a big part in the gap. Being born and raised in a…

4. Recent development of forward osmosis: As mentioned above, FO technology is faced by several challenges that limit its application in large scale processes. The development of FO process can be governed by two major factors; the development of high-performing draw solutions and highly efficient FO membrane. 4.1. Draw solutes development: The draw solution has several factors that can affect FO performance. These factors mainly comprise of draw and feed solution osmotic pressures [61], draw…

accidently delete data which could mean a lot of stress if it is something which is very valuable. One main way to avoid this would be to make sure that back-ups are made of the data, so whatever the matter the data will not be completely lost. Back-ups can be stored on anything like a memory stick or an external hard drive basically anywhere you feel is most safe. However, if data is deleted it can be very time costly because it will take a long time to rebuild also it is annoying when data…

the article “How to Avoid Statistical Traps”, explains why researchers should be careful when examining and presenting data. Bracey claims that when collecting data to conduct a research study, it is important that researchers use multiple data sources. He provides an explanation of the issues with using only one statistical source of data. Research conducted using only one data source will most likely not be accurate. For example, if a researcher conducted a study on the attendance of eleventh…

CS2301 df5 Questions: Using Figure 17.5 from the textbook explain why we have a “big mess” of our free space memory allocation Answer: Below figure show one example of putting the memory. Quoted: ARPACI-DUSSEAU. R., ARPACI-DUSSEAU, A. (2012, ch17-8) In above example, assume total size is 4096, header eat 16k, each chunk total eat 108k (100 + 4 k header + 4 k chunk). In theory (assume perfect allocation), no waste space resulted. Then total 37 chunk block (108k) can be fitted. However, the…
