If system a can perform 100 operations per second and


a) What is the relationship between the Poisson distribution and the exponential distribution?

b) Why is the Poisson distribution an “important distribution” (that is, why do we care about the Poisson distribution other than to get the right answer on the exam)?

(c)Why do we build models and not just experiment on actual systems?

(d)What is performance? Give a short formal definition.

(e)What is a bottleneck? Give a short formal definition.

(f)If system A can perform 100 operations per second and system B can perform 250 operations per second, what is the speed-up of system B relative to system A? What is the speed-up of system A relative to system B?
