Question: 1. What are the principal differences between the VMEbus and the NuBus?

2. What are the similarities between the IEEE 488 bus and the NuBus?

3. Compare and contrast the ways in which the VMEbus and NuBus carry out arbitration.

4. Design an interface between a 68000 module and the VMEbus. Assume that the module is to go in slot 2 of the bus.
