  5. Point out the key features of SMP.


  6. 答案:Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) refers to a computer architecture where two or more identical processors, connected through a shared memory bus, work simultaneously and independently on different tasks or parts of a task. The key features of SMP include: 1. Multiple Processors: SMP systems incorporate two or more identical processors, typically of the same type and speed. 2. Shared Memory: All processors have equal access to a common physical memory, allowing them to read from and write to any location in the memory without restrictions. 3. Cache Coherence: To maintain data consistency, SMP systems employ cache coherence protocols, ensuring that when one processor updates a memory location, all other processors' caches reflect this change promptly. 4. Symmetric Nature: Each processor in an SMP system has equivalent capabilities and responsibilities, executing both user-level applications and operating system code. They can run any process or thread, and there is no distinction between a "master" or "slave" processor. 5. Inter-Processor Communication (IPC): SMP systems use various mechanisms for inter-processor communication, such as interrupts, shared memory flags, and message passing, to coordinate tasks, synchronize access to shared resources, and handle interrupts and exceptions. 6. Load Balancing: The operating system dynamically assigns processes or threads to available processors, aiming to distribute the workload evenly across them. This ensures efficient utilization of processing resources and improves overall system performance. 7. Scalability: SMP systems can scale to accommodate additional processors as needed, provided the hardware and software architectures support it. However, the scalability of SMP systems is limited by factors like memory bandwidth, cache coherency overhead, and contention for shared resources. 8. Hardware Synchronization Mechanisms: SMP systems rely on hardware-supported synchronization primitives like locks, semaphores, and atomic operations to manage concurrent access to shared data and prevent race conditions. 9. Multi-threading Support: SMP systems are well-suited for multi-threaded applications, as they can execute multiple threads concurrently on different processors, enabling parallel execution and improved performance for tasks that can be divided into independent sub-tasks. In summary, the key features of SMP include multiple processors with equal capabilities, shared memory, cache coherence, symmetric operation, inter-processor communication, load balancing, scalability, hardware synchronization mechanisms, and support for multi-threading.

  15. Please explain why the introduction of biofilm media in activated sludge process would promote the wastewater treatment capacity.


  16. 答案:Biofilm media introduction in activated sludge process enhances wastewater treatment capacity due to: 1. **Increased surface area for microbial attachment**: Biofilm media provide a large, structured surface for microorganisms to colonize, forming dense biofilms. This significantly increases the overall surface area available for biological reactions compared to suspended biomass alone, allowing for higher microbial populations and thus greater substrate uptake and pollutant degradation. 2. **Improved retention of biomass**: Biofilm systems help retain biomass within the reactor, reducing washout of微生物 under high hydraulic loads or variations in flow conditions. This ensures a stable and concentrated microbial community continuously working on wastewater treatment, even at higher organic loading rates. 3. **Enhanced substrate utilization and metabolic diversity**: Biofilms harbor diverse microbial communities with different physiological capabilities, which can utilize a broader range of substrates more efficiently. This leads to better degradation of complex or refractory compounds and improved nutrient removal (e.g., nitrogen and phosphorus). 4. **Protection from environmental stress**: The biofilm matrix shields microorganisms from toxic substances, fluctuations in temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen levels, enabling them to withstand adverse conditions that might otherwise inhibit their activity in suspended growth systems. This resilience contributes to more consistent treatment performance. 5. **Potential for simultaneous nitrification-denitrification (SND)**: In certain biofilm configurations, aerobic and anaerobic zones can coexist within the same biofilm, facilitating SND without the need for separate reactors or operational stages. This can lead to enhanced nitrogen removal efficiency and reduced energy consumption for aeration. 6. **Reduced sludge production**: Biofilm processes often generate less excess sludge compared to conventional activated sludge systems, as biomass grows predominantly on the media rather than being produced as freely suspended flocs. Lower sludge production translates to lower sludge handling, treatment, and disposal costs. In summary, the introduction of biofilm media in an activated sludge process promotes wastewater treatment capacity by increasing available surface area for microbial growth, improving biomass retention, fostering metabolic diversity, providing environmental protection to microorganisms, enabling simultaneous nitrification-denitrification, and potentially reducing sludge production.
