Understanding Distributed File Systems: Concepts and Requirements
Introduction to Distributed File Systems
- A distributed file system enables programs to store and access remote files exactly as they do local ones, allowing users to access files from any computer on a network.
- File systems were originally developed for centralized computer systems and desktop computers as an operating system facility providing a convenient programming interface to disk storage.
- A well-designed file service provides access to files stored at a server with performance and reliability
EMAS vs ISO, Water Use Cycle and Desalination Technologies
EMAS vs. ISO: Key Differences
EMAS:
- Identifies and evaluates environmental aspects (direct and indirect). Obligatory to demonstrate.
- Requires a compliance audit.
- Requires annual improvement.
- Applies in Europe.
- Under legal bases. Is obligatory.
ISO:
- Requires only a procedure to identify environmental aspects.
- Only commitment to comply with applicable legal requirements.
- No compliance audit.
- Requires periodic improvement without a defined frequency.
- Applies internationally.
- Under no legal bases. Is recommended

The following questions refer to data in Tables 15.1, 15.2, and 15.3 (not provided in the prompt, but assumed to be present in the original context). Each question presents a scenario and asks for a specific calculation or decision based on the table data.

Greek Theater: Tragedy and Comedy in Ancient Greece
The Choir
The root of Greek theater is a choir, and it always appears in tragedies. But over time, the choir loses importance. Mimo: Short works and comfortable everyday life.

Bubble Sort Algorithm
We assume list is an array of n elements. We further assume that the swap function swaps the values of the given array elements.
begin BubbleSort(list) for all elements of list if list[i] > list[i+1] swap(list[i], list[i+1]) end if end for return list end BubbleSort
Pseudocode for Bubble Sort
We observe in the algorithm that Bubble Sort compares each pair of array elements unless the whole array is completely sorted in ascending order.
