Question 1.1: Consider the disjoint-set forest that is created after calling MAKE-SET for each vertex in Kruskal’s algorithm. Prove or disprove that the number of edges in that forest remains constant until the end of the algorithm. Question 1.2: Give a minimum order, minimum size, connected, undirected graph G=(V,E) on at least two vertices, and a nonnegative weight function w on edges for showing that the disjoint-set forest obtained when the Kruskal’s algorithm terminates is not necessarily such that all the vertices have the same parent. Question 1.3: Prove or disprove that Dijkstra’s algorithm returns a correct result in the case where G has some negative-weight edges, but no strictly negative-weight cycles. Question 1.4: Prove or disprove that when Dijkstra’s algorithm is applied from a source vertex s , then every shortest path p= with v 0 ​ =s and v k+1 ​ =x for any vertex x∈V reachable from s is such that every edge (v i ​ ,v i+1 ​ ) of p has been relaxed before edge (v j ​ ,v j+1 ​ ) of p for all 0≤i

EXPERT ANSWER 1.1The part of Kruskal’s algorithm that make a disjoint set of each vertex of a graph is given as follows:For each vertex v in graph GMake-Set(v)Make-Set(v): Make-Set(v) makes a disjoint set for vertex v such that the set contains only v in it.Thus, the above for loop creates a disjoint forest of n …

1 Assignment requirements You are part of a team working on an innovative solution to a business problem in a certain company. The company is facing multiple complaints from customers on “Late Delivery” of products. You need to use the following tools to identify an innovative solution to the problem: Mind Mapping + Process Mapping Fishbone/Cause-and-Effect Diagram * Six Thinking Hats Requirements: 1. Clearly define each tool and its value to creative thinking. (3 Points) 2. Sketch a mind map, and fishbone to the late delivery problem (sketch by hand) (4 Points) 3. Mention the step-by-step approach of applying “Six Hats” to the problem. (3 Points) (you do not need to find solution, just list the steps of the approach)

EXPERT ANSWER The above diagrams are of 2nd question,Diagram A is mind map and diagram B is Fishbone diagram. 1.Ans, i]Mind mapping is a way of linking key concepts using link,line and images.There is a central concept which is linked via lines to other concepts which in turn are linked with other associated ideas.It uses …

Question 5 As the IKEA manufacturing engineer, your production team has been instructed to prepare for the production of stainless-steel wine bucket as shown in Figure 05. There are several options of manufacturing processes that could be used for the wine bucket production. Therefore, a brainstorming session was held to decide on the most appropriate manufacturing process for the bucket production. From the brainstorming session, five suggestions have been highlighted: Option A: Sand casting Option B: Deep drawing Option C: CNC machining Option D: Impression-die forging Option : High pressure die-casting a. Evaluate all five suggestions in term of the factors that affect the selection of manufacturing processes (25 marks) b. Recommend the most appropriate process that is suitable for both high and low production volumes of the wine bucket and justify your recommendation. Justify your recommendation and suggest TWO (2) advantages of the recommended process. (5 marks) Figure Q5 (No more than 800 words) [Total = 30 marks]

EXPERT ANSWER Sand casting makes use of sand molds to form complex metal parts that can be made of any desired material composition. Because the sand mold must be destroyed in order to remove the part, called the casting or the product which is to be made by achieving machining process.The metal from which the …
