Choose a person who is famous in contemporary media and explain why they are a star, celebrity, microcelebrity or celetoid using relevant scholarly references. What is their celebrity ‘brand’ and how do digital media platforms affect their representation and reception? To answer these questions consider: what ideologies they are seen to embody; and how they have been used as a marketing…

1.       For the following flows and a GCRA(100, 500), give the conformant and non-conformant cells. Times are in cell slots at the link rate. (a)    0, 100, 110, 12, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 1000, 1010 (b)   0, 100, 130, 160, 190, 220, 250, 280, 310, 1000, 1030 (c)    0, 10, 20, 300, 310,…

For a CBR connection, here are some values from an ATM operator: peak cell rate (cells/s)                           100 1000 10000 100000 CDVT (microseconds)                             2900 1200 400 135   1. What are the (P, B) parameters in b/s and bits for each case ? How does T compare to τ ? 2. If a connection requires a…

In this problem, time is counted in slots. One slot is the duration to transmit one ATM cell on the link. 1.       An ATM source S1 is constrained by GCRA(T = 50 slots, τ = 500 slots), The source sends cells according to the following algorithm. • In a first phase, cells are sent at…

A flow with T-SPEC (p, M, r, b) traverses nodes 1 and 2. Node i offers a service curve ci (t) = Ri (t − Ti)+. A shaper is placed between nodes 1 and 2. The shaper forces the flow to the arrival curve z(t) = min(R2t, bt + m).   1. What buffer size is required…
