Consider a disk drive that transfers data in micro-blocks

Reference no: EM13541236

Consider a disk drive that transfers data in micro-blocks of 5 bytes. There is a probability of bit error, p, for each block transferred (that is, each bit has a probability of being in error of p). Bit errors are independent (that is, there is no correlation between bit errors). What is the probability of a block having 0, 1, 2, or 3 bit errors? The Monte Carlo simulation blockError.c (which can be found on the class source code page) models this system. Run the simulation for p = 10-2. Submit a screenshot of the results. Also, analytically model this system and compare your analytical and simulation results.
