An early attempt to force users to use less predictable passwords involved computer-supplied passwords. The passwords were eight characters long and were taken from thecharacter set consisting of lowercase letters and digits. They were generated by apseudorandom number generator with 215 possible starting values. Using the technologyof the time, the time required to search through all character strings of length 8 from a 36-character alphabet was 112 years. Unfortunately, this is not a true reflection of the actual security of the system. Explain the problem.

Problem 1 - hashing we would like to use initials to locate an individual. for instance, mel should locate the person mark e. lehr. note: this is all upper case. generate a hash function for the above using the numbers on your telephone. you know, each letter has a number associated with it, so examine your telephone keypad. generate 512 random 3 letter initials and take statistics on a linked list array size 512 to hold this information report how many have no elements, 1 element, 2 elements, does this agree with the hashing statistics distribution?

When making changes to optimize part of a processor, it is often the case that speeding up one type of instruction comes at the cost of slowing down something else. for example, if we put in a complicated fast floating-point unit, that takes space, and something might have to be moved farther away from the middle to accommodate it, adding an extra cycle in delay to reach that unit. the basic amdahl's law equation does not take into account this trade-off. a. if the new fast floating-point unit speeds up floating-point operations by, on average, 2ă—, and floating-point operations take 20% of the original program's execution time, what is the overall speedup (ignoring the penalty to any other instructions)? b. now assume that speeding up the floating-point unit slowed down data cache accesses, resulting in a 1.5ă— slowdown (or 2/3 speedup). data cache accesses consume 10% of the execution time. what is the overall speedup now? c. after implementing the new floating-point operations, what percentage of execution time is spent on floating-point operations? what percentage is spent on data cache accesses?
