(a)    Suppose we have two independent random variables X and Y. Let X follows Normal distribution with mean 0 and variance 4; Y also follows Normal distribution with mean 1and variance 9. A random sample of 10 observations is taken from each variable; then find.

(b)    What will be the value of population standard deviation if the size of the simple random sample is 25 and standard error of the mean is 2?                        

(c)    Why the Z test is usually inappropriate for small sample size?  Give reasons in support of your answer.

Solution:



Question 1: How ZigBee is taken as a unique and better wireless technology for the data communication over the internet?

Answer:

Zigbee technology is unique and better wireless technology for data communication due to following reasons:

1. Its centralization control system reduces the man power.

2. It allows wireless networking to connect several units through one button.

3. It helps to monitor the activities in a better way.

4.  It saves the wireless networking from short circuiting.

5. The ZigBee technology devices are based on low power consumption therefore are

reliable, therefore can run for long duration.

6. Zigbee technology used in the remote control devices helps to control the function at a

specific range.

7. Its Bluetooth application gives a unique feature of transferring information or data

from one place to another in a far better way than Bluetooth itself.

8. The low cost allows the technology to be used widely in wireless control and

monitoring applications.


Q. 2 Differentiate between Zigbee and other wireless communication technologies?

Answer:
ZigBee and Other wireless communication technologies:

Zigbee is designed around low power consumption which increases battery life while others use high power.

Zigbee provides network security and application support services better than others.

It provides low cast in contrast to others high cost.

Using Mesh networking standard it provides reliability and larger range better than any other wireless network.

Zigbee devices use small transmitters for communication with the central computer.

It also publishes application profiles that allow multiple OEM vendors to create interoperable products.

It is the newest and provides specifications for devices that have low data rates, consume very low power.

ZigBee devices are limited to low throughput of 250kbps at 2.4GHz while others provide high data rate i.e. Bluetooth up to 1Mbps and Wi-Fi up to 54Mbps.

Finally it provides remote monitoring and manipulation.

Bluetooth provides high data rate of 1Mbps at 2.4GHz.

Q. 3 How Zigbee technology ensures Reliable and secures data communication in wireless networks?

Answer:

ZigBee technology uses security model of the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC sub layer which specifies following security services:

1. It maintains a list of trusted devices within the network

2.  In this technology encryption standard is increased

2.  It saves data from modifying by different parties..

3. It gives sequential freshness to reject data frames that have been replayed

4. Controller compares the freshness value with the last known value from the device.

The actual security implementation is specified by the implementer using a standardized tool box of ZigBee security software.

    Promotion is one of the four aspects of Marketing and the other three parts of the marketing mix are product management, pricing, and distribution. Promotion involves disseminating information about a product, product line, brand, or company. Promotion comprises four subcategories:



    > Advertising
    > Personal selling
    > Sales promotion
    > Publicity and public relations

    The specification of these four variables creates a promotional mix or promotional plan. A promotional mix specifies how much attention to pay to each of the four subcategories, and how much money to budget for each. A promotional plan can have a wide range of objectives, including: sales increases, new product acceptance, creation of brand equity, positioning, competitive retaliations, or creation of a corporate image. 


    In our scenario of Brigadier’s car is the promotion mix tool is


    Mind Share
    One of the main objectives of advertising and promotion is to establish what is called mind share (or share of mind) When people think of examples of a type or category of product, they think of a limited list (referred to as an evoked set). Any product included in an evoked set has mind share Mind share can be established to a greater or lesser degree depending on market segment. A similar concept is top of mind. The more easily you remember a brand, the closer it is to your top of mind. This implies that you have not forgotten or buried the information.

    Dominant mind share: A brand may achieve dominant mind share when it is associated with a whole category of products, but has not necessarily become a generic term for these products. 


    Justification: In our scenario the Brigadier is dominated by the mind share tool of the specific company and hence is completely satisfied with the service and the name of the company.

    SALE PROMOTION TOOL
    According my point of view in the above discussion the sales promotion tool is use because the sales promotion is “non-personal promotional efforts that are designed to have an immediate impact on sales” in today modern era the advertising is sprouting even further with revolutionary” promotion that involves unusual approaches such as stage encounters in public places give away of product such as car covered with a brand communication, and interactive advertising where the viewed become part of advertising message, company also try to promote his brand with the help of practical examples.
