Introduction to Computer ScienceProblem Set A

Problem Set A

1 .
Your organization implemented a hybrid cloud network and is experiencing communication problems between its different platforms. As your organization’s technological manager, how will you resolve this issue?
2 .
Your organization relies on a private, on-premises cloud to manage its applications and data. But as the organization grows, this system has become expensive to maintain and is no longer cost effective. The organization needs a cheaper option that also provides a flexible working environment with robust security. How will you resolve this issue?
3 .
Most of your organization’s employees work remotely. As such, you suggest that the organization utilize BYOC (bring your own cloud) solutions. Why do you recommend this?
4 .
Follow this tutorial to mount an Amazon S3 bucket as a drive on Linux, MacOS, or Windows (your choice) to make files stored on that drive shareable on the cloud.
5 .

Run the following notebooks by bringing up Jupyter in your own Linux data science virtual machine on Microsoft Azure or by running the following tutorial container:

docker run -it -p 8888:8888 dbgannon/tutorial

You may need to use a Spark cluster, and you may use Microsoft Azure HDInsight, if that is the case.

  • Get familiar with machine learning using Azure ML; execute and document the following exercise: Azure ML sample, which uses Azure ML to build a document classifier as a web service. Download the notebook file.
  • Get familiar with deep learning using TensorFlow; execute and document the following exercise: tensorflow, which illustrates leveraging TensorFlow to build a very simple logistic regression analyzer that can be used to make simple predictions of graduate school admissions. Download the notebook file.
6 .
Install ROS Melodic and its associated development environment and experiment with some of the tutorials provided.
7 .
Install the CoppeliaSim robotics simulator integrated development environment and experiment with some of the tutorials provided to illustrate its use in combination with ROS.
