### **Part III: Fill in the blank space provided with correct words or phrases [each 1 pt]**

1. **Flume** is used to ingest (transfer) data from RDBMS (Relational Database Management
System) to HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System).

2. **Reactive** Artificial Intelligence systems do not store memories or past experiences for future
actions.

3. **Data stewards** hold the responsibility of ensuring the data are trustworthy, discoverable,
accessible, reusable and fit their purpose.
4. **Platform as a Service (PaaS)** is a sort of hardware architecture or software framework
(including application frameworks), that allows users to build intelligent applications.
### **Part IV: Answer the following questions accordingly (total 9 pts)**

1. **Clearly explain the relationship between Data science, Big Data and Hadoop? [2 pts]**
- **Data Science** is a multidisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, algorithms, and systems
to extract knowledge from data.
- **Big Data** refers to large volumes of data, often complex and from multiple sources, which
cannot be processed using traditional data processing tools.
- **Hadoop** is a framework used to store and process Big Data efficiently. Data Science utilizes Big
Data, and Hadoop is one of the main tools used in this process.

2. **What is the difference between Domain-Specific Expertise and Reasoning Machines? [2 pts]**
- **Domain-Specific Expertise** refers to AI systems designed to perform tasks in a specific area,
such as medical diagnosis or legal analysis.
- **Reasoning Machines**, on the other hand, can apply logical thinking and inference rules to
make decisions in a broader range of contexts.

3. **List and define characteristics of Big Data with appropriate example? [2.5 pts]**
- **Volume** – The amount of data is massive (e.g., social media data).
- **Velocity** – The speed at which new data is generated (e.g., real-time stock trading).
- **Variety** – Different types of data (e.g., videos, texts, audio).
- **Veracity** – Uncertainty or trustworthiness of data (e.g., user-generated content).
- **Value** – Useful insights extracted from data (e.g., customer behavior analysis).

4. **List at least three goals of Artificial Intelligence? [1.5 pts]**


- Mimic human reasoning and problem-solving.
- Automate repetitive or dangerous tasks.
- Enhance human capabilities and decision-making.

5. **Justify your reason why computer is referred as a programmable device? [1 pt]**


- A computer is called a programmable device because it can be instructed through software or code
to perform a wide range of tasks and solve problems, depending on user needs.
### **Part I: Write true if the statement is correct & false if the statement is incorrect [each 1 pt]**

1. **True** – Artificial superintelligence could potentially outperform humans in all domains.


2. **True** – Industry 3.0 introduced electronic and IT systems.
3. **True** – Narrow AI performs specific tasks.
4. **True** – Flume is used in Big Data pipelines with Hadoop.
5. **False** – Semi-structured data **does include** elements of structured data.
### **Part II: Choose the best answer from the given alternatives [each 1.5 pts]**

1. **C. String** – "Abebe123" is a string data type.


2. **C. Development of industries** – Main feature of Tertiary Industry.
3. **D. Artificial Intelligence is specialization of Machine Learning** – This is **incorrect**, correct
answer:
**C. Machine Learning enables the machine to learn from data**.
4. **A. Conferencing equipment** – This is **not** a network device.
5. **B. NoSQL database** – Suitable for scalable big data management.
6. **C. IBM’s Deep Blue** – This is **odd** as it's outdated and not aligned with current AI levels.
7. **B. Unstructured data** – Text-heavy data is unstructured.
8. **B. Cluster computing** – Framework for distributed processing using simple programming.
