Title: IPT Question Thread + Useful Info
Post by: BPunjabi on October 04, 2016, 12:57:11 am
So these are the major three Topics:
Project Management:

Information Systems and Databases:
Can Someone Please supply me a link or tell me about the roles of Administrators such as database Admins, System Admin and all the others. I know that one of those roles involve assigning users to printers or something[/size]

Communication Systems:
[/list]

absolute legend lad, nice to see someone else doing IPT

Project Management:
COASPTD
Collecting
Organizing
Analyzing
Storing and Retrieving
Processing
Transmitting and Receiving
Displaying

Waterfall Method:
Understanding The Problem
Planning
Designing
Implementing
Testing, Evaluating and Maintenance

Information Systems and Databases:
Freedom of Information Act (Commonwealth and NSW) not sure on the copy right one

A distributed database can offer increased speeds when accessing data, due to the the databases being spread out (cant really explain this right its just congestion and distance when accessing data). It also offers increased reliability in the event of error the database may still be accessible as opposed to the centralized database.

175 x 64 = 11200 Bytes, 11200 Bytes divided by 1024 into Kilobytes = 10.9375 KB ( im probably wrong)

Asymmetric and Symmetric

Metadata? This questions pre hard

Data Warehouses can be used for electronic storage of information which can be accessed later in the future

Communication Systems:
Application Level. Communication Control and Addressing Level, Transmission Level

A protocol is a set of rule that governs the transfer of data?

Handshaking is establishing a communication link and determining or agreeing on which protocol to use when transferring data.

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol

No clue on the bandwith one

Aww thats epic, thought no one really cared about IPT on this forum!!

So All your answers are correct. Here are some that you missed or were not sure of:

- The acts were The commonwealth Copyright act 1968, The commonwealth freedom of information Act 1982 and the NSW freedom of info Act 1989
- With the bytes question dont find the actually answer as we cant use a calculator... just show the working of how you would put it into a calculator (Btw your answer was correct)
- A spider and a search robot fetches as many documents as possible which is handed to the indexer which reads and creates and indexed approach to the documents based on the search criteria
- Bandwidth is the difference between the highest and lowest frequencies of a transmission channel. it is shown as (Hz, kHz or MHz)

BTW.. do you have any questions you  could post that I could answer and do you know the answer to my blue question?
Can Someone Please supply me a link or tell me about the roles of Administrators such as database Admins, System Admin and all the others. I know that one of those roles involve assigning users to printers or something[/size]

Hey there!
The syllabus only requires us to know the tasks of a network administrator & are listed there...don't think you need to go into it in detail, judging from the past 10 years of the HSC papers (they have only ever asked about the network admin's tasks in multiple choice or just relating their tasks to the given scenario (found in HSC 2008 paper question 22b)).
This website could be useful to you if you just want to know extra information: https://www.google.com/support/enterprise/static/postini/docs/admin/en/admin_ee_cu/auth_admins.html

Its a phiscal component in a computer or device allowing the user to access the internet which is connected through a protocol like agreement between the card and the router.  Basically uses handshaking.

No worries! Glad it helped!   :)
Also, the answers to your questions:

a) Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is a method used to detect errors in transmission – a method 99.99% more effective than check sum. Hence, in this information system, it could be used when the details of the customer when they are applying for a loyalty card are transmitted to the department store.
Note: I don’t think I wrote an adequate amount…and if I did this correctly….

c) In this information system:
- Internet would be used to access the online department store for shopping and applying for a loyalty card. It would also be used when the customers receive advertising emails from the business partners of the online department store.
- Intranet would be used when the store shares information with its employees.
- Extranet would be used for when the store shares information with its business partners. 
Note: Not too sure about this question either……     :’(

LoL bro, I know how to do binary ahahah and you screwed up your method.. its 0-1-2-4-8-16-32-64-128
I mean a question that says like pick the wrong message. Shows different codes. Its either odd even and you have to pick which code it is
Title: Re: IPT Question Thread + Useful Info

Ah, right.
Well then,
For parity checks, you choose to transmit the data with an odd parity bit or an even one.

E.g. the binary to be transmitted is 0110101 and you choose odd parity. Choosing odd parity means that the number of 1's must be odd - if it's not, then you make it odd by making the parity bit 1. However, if it is, then the parity bit would be 0 in order to leave the number of 1's odd.
In this case, the number of 1's in the binary are 4. We have chosen odd parity hence the parity bit has to be 1 to make the number of 1's odd. As a result, the transmitting data would read as: 0110101 1

On the other hand, if even parity was chosen, the parity bit would be zero and the data to be transmitted would read as: 0110101 0

Hope this helped!

Note: the "0-1-2-4-8-16-32-64-128" method is only used for converting binary to decimal not decimal to binary. I did the method where you convert decimal to binary (i.e. 72 is converted to 1001000)

Post by: aimbotted on October 09, 2016, 11:12:20 pm
Answer's B.

Here's why, the first bye there 3 0's and 5 1's this makes it an odd parity as the parity bit is 1 to make the 1's odd. Whilst in the 2nd and 3rd byte there are even amounts of 1's and 0's. As state before the first byte's parity is ODD, whilst the second byte and third byte have even parities. Therefor the Parity is odd and the corrupted data bytes are second and third

10) Even number of ones in the given scenario therefore even parity has been used. For errors to be detected, one of the options will give an odd number of ones. Hence, the answer is b) (not a) since even parity is used and error would not be detected)

19) Odd parity has been selected hence, for error to be detected, we're looking for even parity in one of the options. Therefore the answer is c)  (don't know what answer you suggested)

It's all about counting the number of odds and evens in the first line of data.

You determine the parity bit and then try to determine the parity bit of the other pieces of data

You'll eventually find one with a different parity and that's the one that has to be checked.

  • The message I want to send is: 01001101
  • Which parity do I want? Odd or even?
  • I choose even.
  • I count the number of ones in my message.
  • There are 4 number of ones - therefore, it is even.
  • To make it stay even, the parity bit that I add is 0.
  • Just to check, I count the number of ones again in my modified message: 01001101 0. There are still 4 number of ones.
  • If the receiver gets this message: 01001101 0 or 01111010 1, it says it is correct.
  • This is because the receiver and the sender agreed upon even parity. The receiver counted the number of ones and they were even. Hence, it accepted this message and did not detect an error.
  • If however the receiver gets this message: 01101101 0, it would request a resend as the number of ones are odd (there are 5 number of ones in that message). This is because the receiver and the sender had agreed upon even parity and not odd.

If you still don't get it, say exactly which step makes you confused and I can expand on it   
Hope this helped!

You're getting there....think about it and read the question properly - it's asking you which one of the options will require you to resend the message? ie, which one of the options are wrong?
For option d), the message looks exactly the same as the transmitted one - hence, we would not request for a resend.
Think about which parity is chosen for the message to be sent correctly. Odd or Even? Then, for the message to be wrong, look for the option that uses opposite parity to the correct one.

Since it's a multiple choice question, it shouldn't take more than 2 minutes. However, if there is a big chunk provided as a scenario, allow yourself about 5 minutes (for example, question 19 in the earlier post). With practice, you'll be able to do it much faster.
You could try watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlF9Tor2RWk  - although the accent is pretty strong, it has useful notes. Or, you could just search up a different one on YouTube.

Sure:
17) D
19) A
20) C

In the attachments, the first three of them are the ones I don't understand...
15) The answer is B but I don't understand why it cannot be A
18) I don't understand any part of it.
10) I know it can't be C or D but other than that, I have no idea
Title: Re: IPT Question Thread + Useful Info
Post by: BPunjabi on October 11, 2016, 11:57:46 pm
So with first attachment you rule out c) and d) because they are not commercial and are not businesses. A) is ruled out because an atm does not look at sale data, it is simply used for getting money out. Therefore b)

Let me think about second one

Third one is b) because all the other answers have a surname as a primary key, when primary keys can only be like an id number. For example s7170 or just 011837 cant be words like ford, opal.. cant be any type of word

Is the last one b) or a)?

So with first attachment you rule out c) and d) because they are not commercial and are not businesses. A) is ruled out because an atm does not look at sale data, it is simply used for getting money out. Therefore b)

Let me think about second one

Third one is b) because all the other answers have a surname as a primary key, when primary keys can only be like an id number. For example s7170 or just 011837 cant be words like ford, opal.. cant be any type of word

Is the last one b) or a)?

Yea now that you point it out, the third one was easy - I didn't think about why a surname can't be a primary key - Thanks!

The last one is B because it's not an intranet

Seller needs to post ad and login to idiskok. Shopper searches for a tag in the product description which comes back as details then the shopper wants to buy so add to cart

Anymore man😅

You're right for the first one but it's B for the second one. Because the distance is so big, optic fibre is needed so that there is faster transmission at segment 3. The last segment is more likely to be a twisted-pair cable than a coaxial cable because it's mainly used for audio and visual purposes (very short distances) e.g. connecting your VCR to your TV.

I know it's older than 2010 HSC. Other than that, I don't remember

Well, I found that the question is from the 2001 HSC. The answers say it's B...

Concerning wireless transmission, how important is it to know the frequency ranges of different types?ie that bluetooth works on a 2.45GHz frequency
