Identify a few vulnerabilities that occur as a result of a buffer overflow attack. classify the type of buffer overflow used in each, and decide if it is one of the forms we discussed in the lecture or another variant.

Using least squares fitting, you are to fit the data sets to the following models and solve for the parameters ai , where i is the index of the parameter. the input/output data for the systems are linked in the bblearn site. for each of the systems use matlab to plot the supplied data vs. the model fit on one plot. include your code in the solutions. (a) linear fit "lineardata.mat" y=a1x^3 + a2x^2 + a3x + a4 (b) plant fit "plantdata.mat g(s) = a1/(s + a2)

Jason, samantha, ravi, sheila, and ankit are preparing for an upcoming marathon. each day of the week, they run a certain number of miles and write them into a notebook. at the end of the week, they would like to know the number of miles run each day, the total miles for the week, and average miles run each day. write a program to them analyze their data. your program must contain parallel arrays: an array to store the names of the runners and a two-dimensional array of five rows and seven columns to store the number of miles run by each runner each day. furthermore, your program must contain at least the following functions: a function to read and store the runners’ names and the numbers of miles run each day; a function to find the total miles run by each runner and the average number of miles run each day; and a function to output the results. (you may assume that the input data is stored in a file and each line of data is in the following form: runnername milesday1 milesday2 milesday3 milesday4 milesday5 milesday6 milesday7.)

Which best describes the role or restriction enzymes in the analysis of edna a. to break dna into fragments that vary in size so they can be sorted and analyzed b. to amplify small amounts of dna and generate large amounts of dna for analysis c. to purify samples of dna obtained from the environment so they can be analyzed d. to sort different sizes of dna fragments into a banding pattern that can be analyzed
