We want to construct a box whose base length is 5 times the base width. The material used to build the top and bottom cost $3 per square feet and the material used to build the sides cost $2 per square feet. If the box must have a volume of 100 cubic feet determine the Width that will minimize the cost to build the box. (Note: The dimensions are specifically defined so that which dimension is the width is not ambiguous!)

Potpourri-1 Potpourri 1. (Answer True/False with justification) Your friend is submitting a map reduce job. Her input data is split into 100 shards. Ignoring set up time, the actual time for the map function to execute on an input shard is T. To speed up the map phase, she asks for 200 nodes. With this allocation, the map phase on the entire input will complete in T/2 time units.

Failures_and_Recovery_6c Quicksilver The context for this question is same as previous. You are designing a distributed database system on top of the Quicksilver operating system. The system allows clients to perform “read” and “write” operations on data stored across multiple nodes. Each operation generates a transaction tree for recovery purposes. For persistent changes made during a “write” operation, what cleanup protocol would be appropriate? Why?
