Explanation of Solution

Object conversion:

In C++, some special operator functions are used to convert a class object to any other data type.

  • The operator function allows the class for automatic type conversion.
  • Operator function makes the class to work like built-in data types.
  • The type conversion of data happens behind the scenes with the build-in data types.

Example:

Consider the example of object conversion is as follows:

Assuming "d" is the object of the "Feet" class and "a" is declared as a double data type. Now the statement "a = d" means "d" value is converted into a floating-point number and store it in "a" variable. Now, the operator function must be written to perform the conversion.

//operator function for conversion

Feet:: operator double ()

{

//declare the variable and assign the value

double t = f;

//calculate the value

t = (t + (i / 6...

You are tasked with developing a portable system that can be worn to collect health and fitness data. The challenge is to integrate all functions into the smaller form of an ear clip. The device should include heart rate, movement and temperature sensor and wireless communication with a mobile app. Draw a diagram- hardware architecture of the system- including the selection of suitable sensors, communication modules, and an energy-efficient microcontroller. (visualize the components and their connections)
Draw out an example of 3 systems using Lamport’s logical clock and explain the steps in words.
"Systems have become very powerful and sophisticated, providing quality information fordecisions that enable the firm to coordinate both internally and externally."With reference to the above statement compare the operations of any three data gatheringsystems today’s organisations use to aid decision making.
