Right Answer:
Memory management in AUTOSAR systems is handled through a combination of static and dynamic memory allocation. The AUTOSAR architecture defines memory areas for different software components, and the Memory Management Module (MEM) is responsible for managing memory allocation, ensuring that memory is allocated and deallocated properly, and preventing memory leaks. Additionally, AUTOSAR provides mechanisms for memory protection and access control to enhance safety and reliability.

Right Answer:
MEP stands for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing. It refers to the systems and services in a building that involve mechanical (HVAC), electrical (lighting, power), and plumbing (water supply, drainage) components, essential for the building's functionality and comfort.

Right Answer:
Project float, also known as slack, is the amount of time that a project task can be delayed without affecting the overall project timeline or the start date of subsequent tasks.

Right Answer:
To ensure work progress on site is on time, implement a detailed project schedule, conduct regular progress meetings, monitor tasks closely, allocate resources efficiently, and address any issues promptly.

Right Answer:
To ensure successful executive sponsorship of a project, the following actions are required:

1. **Clear Vision and Goals**: Define and communicate the project's objectives and expected outcomes.
2. **Active Engagement**: Regularly participate in project meetings and discussions to provide guidance and support.
3. **Resource Allocation**: Ensure that necessary resources (budget, personnel, tools) are available for the project.
4. **Stakeholder Communication**: Facilitate communication between stakeholders and the project team to address concerns and expectations.
5. **Risk Management**: Identify potential risks and support the team in developing mitigation strategies.
6. **Advocacy**: Promote the project within the organization to gain buy-in and support from other leaders.
7. **Feedback and Support**: Provide constructive feedback and support to the project manager and team throughout the project lifecycle.

Right Answer:
* **Epic:** A large, high-level user story that is too big to complete in a single iteration. It's usually broken down into smaller user stories.
* **User Story:** A small, self-contained requirement that represents a valuable piece of functionality for the end-user. It follows the format: "As a [user type], I want [goal] so that [benefit]".
* **Task:** A small, actionable item that needs to be done to complete a user story. It's a technical breakdown of the work required by the development team.

Right Answer:
A product backlog is a prioritized list of features, bug fixes, tasks, and requirements needed to build a product. It's managed through regular refinement, prioritization, estimation, and updates based on feedback and changing business needs, often facilitated by the Product Owner.

Right Answer:
The Agile Manifesto values:

* **Individuals and interactions** over processes and tools.
* **Working software** over comprehensive documentation.
* **Customer collaboration** over contract negotiation.
* **Responding to change** over following a plan.

That is, while the items on the right have value, we value the items on the left more.

Right Answer:
We ensure consistent Agile processes through:

* **Training and coaching:** Ensuring the team understands Agile principles and practices.
* **Regular audits and retrospectives:** Identifying deviations and areas for improvement.
* **Using tools and templates:** Standardizing processes and providing guidelines.
* **Defining clear roles and responsibilities:** Ensuring everyone knows their part in the process.
* **Promoting open communication and feedback:** Encouraging early detection of issues.

Right Answer:
Success in Agile is measured by:

* **Output:** Delivering valuable, working software frequently; achieving the product vision; meeting business goals; customer satisfaction; and predictability (consistent delivery).
* **Team Health:** Team morale; continuous improvement (velocity trends, retrospectives leading to action); collaboration; self-organization; and sustainable pace.

Right Answer:
Some common data visualization techniques include:

1. Bar Charts
2. Line Graphs
3. Pie Charts
4. Scatter Plots
5. Histograms
6. Heat Maps
7. Box Plots
8. Area Charts

Right Answer:
Outliers are data points that significantly differ from the rest of the dataset. They can skew results and affect statistical analyses. To handle outliers, you can:

1. Identify them using methods like the IQR (Interquartile Range) or Z-scores.
2. Remove them if they are errors or irrelevant.
3. Transform them using techniques like log transformation.
4. Use robust statistical methods that are less affected by outliers.
5. Analyze them separately if they provide valuable insights.

Right Answer:
Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is the process of analyzing and summarizing datasets to understand their main characteristics, often using visual methods. It helps identify patterns, trends, and anomalies in the data before applying formal modeling techniques.

Right Answer:
Classification analysis is a data analysis technique used to categorize data into predefined classes or groups. It works by using algorithms to learn from a training dataset, where the outcomes are known, and then applying this learned model to classify new, unseen data based on its features. Common algorithms include decision trees, logistic regression, and support vector machines.
