establishments due to concerns over camera capabilities built
into devices. The code of conduct says:
“Don’t be creepy or rude (aka, a X). Respect others and if they have
questions about Glass, don’t get snappy. If you’re asked to turn your
phone off, turn Glass off as well. Breaking the rules or being rude
will not get businesses excited about Glass and will ruin it for other
Explorers.”

80. Computer Science

81.  This Algorithm was developed by three Scientists
whose surnames’ first letters contribute to the name of
the algorithm. It was developed in 1997 at MIT.
 The Abstract of the paper for the Algo is as follows:
 The system includes a communications channel coupled to at least one
terminal having an encoding device and to at least one terminal having a
decoding device. A message-to-be-transferred is enciphered to ciphertext
at the encoding terminal by encoding the message as a number M in a
predetermined set. That number is then raised to a first predetermined
power (associated with the intended receiver) and finally computed. The
remainder or residue, C, is... computed when the exponentiated number is
divided by the product of two predetermined prime numbers (associated
with the intended receiver).

83.  Ron Rivest

84.  X is a search heuristic that mimics the process of natural
selection. This heuristic (also sometimes called
a metaheuristic) is routinely used to generate useful
solutions to optimization and search problems.
 They belong to the larger class of evolutionary
algorithms (EA), which generate solutions to optimization
problems using techniques inspired by natural evolution,
such as inheritance, mutation, selection, and crossover.
 They find applications
in bioinformatics, phylogenetics, computational
science, engineering, mathematics, physics and other
fields.

Conference (WWDC), X is designed to work with

large body of existing Objective-C code written for
Apple products. Swift is intended to be more resilient

more concise.

93.  A _____ is an n-ary tree with a variable but often large
number of children per node. It consists of a root,
internal nodes and leaves.The root may be either a leaf
or a node with two or more children.
 The primary value of a _____ is in storing data for
efficient retrieval in a block-oriented storage context
— in particular, filesystems. This is primarily because
unlike binary search trees, _____ have very high fanout
(number of pointers to child nodes in a node, typically
on the order of 100 or more), which reduces the
number of I/O operations required to find an element
in the tree.

breakthrough, John von Neumann understood its
importance and programmed the ENIAC computer to
carry out calculations.

102.  X is a data storage virtualization technology that
combines multiple disk drive components into a
logical unit for the purposes of data redundancy or
performance improvement.
 Data is distributed across the drives in one of several
ways, referred to as levels, depending on the specific
level of redundancy and performance required.
 Each scheme provides a different balance between the
key goals: reliability,availability, performance,
and capacity.
