 TASK COMPUTING

  • The most obvious and frequent method for developing parallel and distributed computing applications is an application in terms of tasks. A task denotes one or more processes that generate different outputs and may be separated as a distinct logical unit. A task is represented as a discrete unit of code, or to manage a program, which may be split and performed in a remote runtime environment. Programs are the most frequent way to express tasks, particularly in the field of scientific computing, which has benefited from the power of distributed computing.
  • Multithreaded programming is primarily concerned with enabling parallelism inside a single system. Task computing distributes compute power by utilizing the computation capabilities of several computing nodes. As a result, the presence of a distributed infrastructure is crucial in this programming paradigm. Previously, the infrastructures used to accomplish tasks have been clusters, supercomputers, and computing grids. Now, cloud computing has been established as an appealing approach for obtaining massive computing capacity on demand for the execution of distributed applications. It is required to use appropriate middleware software layers that helps to properly coordinate the use of multiple resources drawn from a data center or geographically distributed networked computers.


  • A user presents a group of tasks to the middleware's access point(s)/node(s), which will handle task scheduling and monitoring. Each computing resource offers a suitable runtime environment, which may differ from one implementation to the next (a simple shell, a sandboxed environment, or a virtual machine). The APIs supplied by the middleware, whether a Web or programming language interface, are often used for task submission. Appropriate APIs are also supplied to monitor task status and gather data when they are completed.
  • There are several models of distributed applications that fall under task computing. 

  • Despite this diversity, a set of common operations that the middleware needs to allow the design and execution of  task-based applications can be identified as:

  1. Coordination and scheduling of activities for execution on a collection of distant nodes 
  2. Transferring programs to remote nodes and maintaining their dependencies 
  3. Creating an environment for distant node task execution
  4. Monitoring each task's execution and alerting the user of its status
  5. Access to the task's output

Suppose that a data warehouse consists of the four dimensions; date, spectator, location, and game, and the two measures, count and charge, where charge is the fee that a spectator pays when watching a game on a given date. Spectators may be students, adults, or seniors, with each category having its own charge rate. a) Draw a star schema diagram for the data b) Starting with the base cuboid [date; spectator; location; game], what specific OLAP operations should perform in order to list the total charge paid by student spectators at GM Place in 2004?

  b) The specific OLAP operations to be performed are: 1. Roll-up on date from date id to year. 2. Roll-up on spectator from spectator id to status. 3. Roll-up on location from location id to location name. 4. Roll-up on the game from game id to all. 5. Dice with status= “students”, location name= “GM Place”, and year=2004

Business ethics   Business ethics are moral principles that guide the way a business behaves, wrong Acting in an ethical way involves distinguishing between right and then making the right choice. Business ethics are applied or professional ethics. They may take the form of actions within written and unwritten codes of principles, and values and are determined by an organization's culture. They largely govern the decisions in the organization. However, determining what practices are ethical or not is more difficult since the lines between ethical and unethical can become blurred. The following are some of the notable definitions of business ethics Decenzo & Robbins Ethics commonly refers to a set of rules or principles that defined right and wrong conduct. Ricky W. Griffin Ethics is an individual's personal beliefs about whether a behavior, action o decision is right or wrong. Managerial ethics are the standard of behavior the guides individual managers in their work. Clara...

Short Note on Security Architecture of E-governance

 Security Architecture The security architecture of E-governance is a high-level document that sets the security goals of the e-governance project and describes the procedure that needs to be followed by all the e-governance hierarchies such as users, businesses, operators, etc. An appropriate legal framework is absolutely essential for the systematic and sustained growth of e-governance. Protection of Public Order and Decency  The internet is highly capable of being a saturated and versatile medium at the same time. Its reach is very vast and due to its multimedia capability, its impact can be immediate and profound. So the government has to beware of its potential to create a negative impact on society through the promotion of terrorism, pornography, communalism, violence, etc. Section 67 of the IT Act 2000 of India makes it a punishable offense to “publish or transmit or cause to be published it the electronic form, a material which is lascivious or appeals to the prurient ...
