C++ CPU Temperature Sensors and Computational Mathematics

 

Your task is to take the temperature readings and generate for each core:

  1. A piecewise linear interpolation.
  2. A global linear least squares approximation.
  3. (Optional) A cubic spline (or other non-linear) interpolation.

2 Program Arguments & Execution

Your program must accept an input filename as the first command line argument. Your program must NOT prompt the user for a filename.

2.1 Input Format

Data takes the form of temperatures in a txt file. All data points are whitespace delimited. For example, if I had 5 temperature readings:

Example 1: Sample Input with Labels+61.0°C +63.0°C +50.0°C +58.0°C +80.0°C +81.0°C +68.0°C +77.0°C +62.0°C +63.0°C +52.0°C +60.0°C +83.0°C +82.0°C +70.0°C +79.0°C +68.0°C +69.0°C +58.0°C +65.0°C 

Example 2: Sample Input without Labels61.0 63.0 50.0 58.0 80.0 81.0 68.0 77.0 62.0 63.0 52.0 60.0 83.0 82.0 70.0 79.0 68.0 69.0 58.0 65.0 

would be a possible input files. Each line represents temperature readings from 4 processor cores. Process each temperature column independently. Readings are taken every 30 seconds. In this example:

  • line 1 is 0 sec
  • line 2 is 30 sec,
  • line 3 is 60 sec.
  • line 4 is 90 sec.
  • line 5 is 120 sec.
  • line 6 is 150 sec.
  • line 7 is 180 sec.

Your first step should be to pre-process this data into a usable form. Conceptually, you need the data in the following format:

This table is a conceptual visualization of the data. You may select any combination data structures, e.g., ADTS (classes or structs), arrays, lists, vectors, or maps.

Time (sec)Core 0Core 1Core 2Core 3061.063.050.058.03080.081.068.077.06062.063.052.060.012083.082.070.079.018068.069.058.065.0

2.3 Output Format

All output must be written to text files (one file pre core). Each line must take the form:

xk<=xtype

where

  • xkxk and xk+1xk+1 are the domain in which ykyk is applicable
  • ykyk is the kthkth function
  • type is either least-squares or interpolation

You will have:

  • n−1n−1 interpolation lines for each core
  • exactly one least squares approximation line for each core

For the example data in described in Section 2.1 (Input Format) you would generate 4 output files.

  • {basename}-core-0.{txt}
  • {basename}-core-1.{txt}
  • {basename}-core-2.{txt}
  • {basename}-core-3.{txt}

3 Sample Execution & Output

3.2 Sample Output

The following is an example of piecewise linear interpolation output for a single core.

ex-interpolation-one-core.txt 

4.1 Documentation Requirements

All code must be properly and fully documented using a language appropriate comment style. All functions (including parameters and return types) must be documented.

  1. Doxygen can be used for C++, Java, or JavaScript. Consider the following Doxygen Example:
    Example 3: C++ Doxygen Documentation/**  * Retrieve the value stored in three selected Cells  *  * @param cell1Id numeric id representing the 1st desired cell  * @param cell2Id numeric id representing the 2nd desired cell  * @param cell3Id numeric id representing the 3rd desired cell  *  * @return value stored in the Cell  *  * @pre (cell1Id > 0 && cell1Id < 10) &&  *      (cell2Id > 0 && cell2Id < 10) &&  *      (cell3Id > 0 && cell3Id < 10)  */ CellTriple get3Cells(int cell1Id, int cell2Id, int cell3Id) const;

Risk Assessment Plan

After creating an initial draft of the risk management plan, the next step is to create a draft of the risk assessment plan.For this part of the project:

  1. Research risk assessment approaches.
  2. Create an outline for a basic qualitative risk assessment plan.
  3. Write an introduction to the plan explaining its purpose and importance.
  4. Define the scope and boundaries for the risk assessment.
  5. Identify data center assets and activities to be assessed.
  6. Identify relevant threats and vulnerabilities. Include those listed in the scenario and add to the list if needed.
  7. Identify relevant types of controls to be assessed.
  8. Identify the key roles and responsibilities of individuals and departments within the organization as they pertain to risk assessments.
  9. Develop a proposed schedule for the risk assessment process.
  10. Complete the draft risk assessment plan detailing the information above. Risk assessment plans often include tables, but you choose the best format to present the material. Format the bulk of the plan similar to a professional business report and cite any sources you used.

The Chocolate Delights Candy Company needs to add the following functionality to its cash register:
When a customer is checking out, the cash register needs to store the required data pertaining to each  item the customer is buying. This data includes the item name, the price per pound, and the number of  pounds of that item being purchased. This should be stored in three (3) arrays (one (1) for the item name,  one (1) for the price per pound, and one (1) for the number of pounds being purchased) with  corresponding index values. For example, index value 3, when applied to the “itemName” array, would  give as the name of the third item that the customer is buying. That same index value of 3, when applied  to the “pricePerPound” array, would give us the price per pound of that same third item that the customer  is buying.
When that last item in the purchase has been saved to the array, an itemized receipt is printed which
shows the relevant data (name, price, and amount purchased) of each item, the subtotal price for each  item (which is calculated as price per pound times the number of pounds), and the grand total purchase  amount of all items.
Use Visual Logic to create the data flow diagrams needed in order to develop the design documents for
an interactive event-driven program to solve the above scenario that includes at least:
1. Three (3) arrays
2. One (1) loop
3. One (1) and / or conditional statement that covers decision making to include true and false parts
of an if statement.
Include the code along with the Visual Logic output.
 

Discussion9- ECOM-500: Business and IT

 

Identify a case of corporate fraud by finding a current event or by researching historical cases. After finding a case, complete the following in your initial discussion post:

  • Briefly summarize the case, including what happened, who was involved, and what damages were incurred.
  • Note how the fraud was detected and discuss any red flags that appeared prior to detection.
  • Could an accounting and finance system have helped deter this fraud? If yes, how? If no, why not?
  • Are there any specific business policies and procedures that could have been in place that would have prevented the fraud from occurring? Explain.
  • Embed course material concepts, principles, and theories, which require supporting citations along with at least two scholarly peer reviewed references supporting your answer. Keep in mind that these scholarly references can be found in the Saudi Digital Library by conducting an advanced search specific to scholarly references.
  • Reply to at least two of your peers’ initial posts. These replies need to be substantial and constructive in nature. They should add to the content of the post and evaluate/analyze that post’s answers. Normal course dialogue doesn’t fulfill these two peer replies but is expected throughout the course. Keep in mind that within your initial post, answering all course questions is required.
  • Use Saudi Electronic University academic writing standards and APA style guidelines.

Be sure to support your statements with logic and argument, citing all sources referenced. Post your initial response early, and check back often to continue the discussion. Be sure to respond to your peers’ posts as well.
