Question
Describe the algorithm used by a telephone to place a phone call. (You maygive your description in either English or a pseudocode, whichever you findmore convenient.)
Solution
Sure, here is a simplified version of the algorithm used by a telephone to place a phone call:
-
User picks up the handset or opens the calling application on a smartphone. This action signals the system that the user intends to make a call.
-
User dials the phone number of the recipient. This can be done either by pressing the number buttons on a traditional phone or by tapping the numbers on a smartphone's screen.
-
The telephone system processes the dialed number. It checks if the number is valid and if the call can be placed (e.g., the user has enough credit, the call does not violate any restrictions, etc.).
-
If the number is valid and the call can be placed, the telephone system sends a signal to the network, requesting to establish a connection to the recipient's phone.
-
The network routes the call to the recipient's phone. This involves several steps and can involve multiple networks, especially if the call is international.
-
The recipient's phone rings, signaling an incoming call.
-
If the recipient answers the call, a two-way communication channel is established between the two phones. The users can now talk to each other.
-
If the recipient does not answer the call, the call is directed to voicemail (if available) or the call ends.
-
The user ends the call by hanging up the handset or closing the calling application. The telephone system sends a signal to the network to close the communication channel.
-
The network acknowledges the end of the call and disconnects the two phones.
This is a simplified version of the process and does not cover all possible scenarios and technical details. For example, it does not cover the process of routing the call through the network, which can be quite complex, especially for international calls.

Mobile PhoneCreate a program that implements a simple mobile phone with the following capabilities.1. Implement the master class MobilePhone, that holds the ArrayList of Contacts, with the following attributes: - Two fields, a String called myNumber and an ArrayList of type Contact called myContacts. - A constructor that takes a String (the phone number) and initialises myNumber and instantiates myContacts. - And seven methods, they are (their functions are in their names): - addNewContact(), has one parameter of type Contact and returns a boolean. Returns true if the contact doesn't exists, or false if the contact already exists. - updateContact(), has two parameters of type Contact (the old contact that will be updated with the new contact) and returns a boolean. Returns true if the contact exists and was updated successfully, or false if the contact doesn't exists. - removeContact(), has one parameter of type Contact and returns a boolean. Returns true if the contact exists and was removed successfully, or false if the contact doesn't exists. - findContact(), has one parameter of type Contact and returns an int. The returned value is it's position in the ArrayList, it will either be -1 (doesn't exists) or a value greater than or equal to 0 (does exists). - findContact(), same as above, only it has one parameter of type String. - queryContact(), has one parameter of type String and returns a Contact. Use the String to search for the name and then return the Contact. Return null otherwise. - printContacts(), has no parameters and doesn't return anything. Print the contacts in the following format:Contact List:1. Bob -> 314159262. Alice -> 161803393. Tom -> 112358134. Jane -> 235711132. Implement the Contact class with the following attributes: - Two fields, both String, one called name and the other phoneNumber. - A constructor that takes two Strings, and initialises name and phoneNumber. - And Three methods, they are: - getName(), getter for name. - getPhoneNumber(), getter for phoneNumber. - createContact(), has two parameters of type String (the persons name and phone number) and returns an instance of Contact. This is the only method that is static.TIP: In MobilePhone, use findContact() in the other methods (except printContacts()) to check if it exists before proceeding.TIP: Two Contact objects are equal if they have the same name.TIP: Be extremely careful about spaces in the printed message.NOTE: All fields are private.NOTE: Constructors should be defined as public.NOTE: All methods should be defined as public (except for the two findContact() methods which are private).NOTE: Do not add a main method to the solution code.NOTE: Classes that are not in the java.lang package should be manually imported.NOTE: If you get an error from the Evaluate class, it's most likely the constructor. Check if you've added a constructor or if the constructor has the right arguments.
