Questiоns 7-10 refer tо the pаssаge belоw. “As soon аs their preparations were complete, they encouraged a subservient ally to declare war against Serbia at forty-eight hours' notice, knowing full well that a conflict involving the control of the Balkans could not be localized and almost certainly meant a general war. In order to make doubly sure, they refused every attempt at conciliation and conference until it was too late, and the world war was inevitable for which they had plotted, and for which alone among the nations they were fully equipped and prepared. Germany's responsibility, however, is not confined to having planned and started the war. She is no less responsible for the savage and inhuman manner in which it was conducted. Though Germany was herself a guarantor of Belgium, the ruler of Germany violated, after a solemn promise to respect it, the neutrality of this unoffending people. Not content with this, they deliberately carried out a series of promiscuous shootings and burnings with the sole object of terrifying the inhabitants into submission by the very frightfulness of their action. They were the first to use poisonous gas, notwithstanding the appalling suffering it entailed. They began the bombing and long distance shelling of towns for no military object, but solely for the purpose of reducing the morale of their opponents by striking at their women and children. They commenced the submarine campaign with its piratical challenge to international law, and its destruction of great numbers of innocent passengers and sailors, in mid-ocean, far from succour, at the mercy of the winds and the waves, and the yet more ruthless submarine crews.” -- Georges Clemenceau, Letter of Reply to the Objections of the German Peace Delegation regarding the Versailles settlement, May 1919 9. The ideas expressed in the passage contributed to a peace settlement that led to which of the following?
3) (25 pоints) Cоnsider the netwоrk set-up in Problem 2, but now suppose we wаnt to uploаd the file of size F bit from the client C to the server S. Thаt is, the direction of transmission is: Client => Access link RC = R bit/s => Backbone link RB2 = 10R => Backbone link RB1 = 5R => Access link RS = 2R => Server. Drawing a labeled separate space-time diagram for each of the following parts a), b), and c) is required in order to receive credit. a) Suppose message switching is used, i.e., the entire file is treated as one large packet. How long does it take to upload the file? b) Suppose the file is broken up into packets, each packet with P information bits, and packet switching is used. Header bits are negligible. How long does it take to upload the file? c) Suppose circuit switching is used. The circuit that we set up across all the network links has a circuit transmission bit rate of R/2 bit/s. Assuming ts seconds set up time, how long does it take to upload the file?
