There are many parameters that could be used to describe disk performance; among them are: number of bits per track disk capacity (in bits) number of disk surfaces rotational speed rotational latency transfer rate tracks per surface sectors per track blocks per track sectors per block seek time speed of disk arm block-read time number of blocks Some of these parameters are independent, and others are (approximately) linearly related. That is, doubling one doubles the other. Decide which of these parameters are linearly related. Then, select from the list below, the relationship that is true, to within a close approximation. Note: none of the statements may be true exactly, but one will always be much closer to the truth than the other three. Also note: you should assume all dimensions and parameters of the disk are unchanged except for the ones mentioned. a) If you divide tracks into half as many blocks, then you double the read time for a block.…
Main memory size is 16 pages. Size of swap file on hard disk is 64 pages. Operating system locks down pages 0, 1, 2 and 7 in the main memory. Two programs are started and both are provided with a virtual address space of 10 pages. Initially operating system allocates 5 pages of main memory for each program and the rest from swap file. Virtual address space of each program starts from page 0. Construct page tables for both programs at program startup. A page table consists of P-bit which tells if the page is present in the main memory (1 = page is in main memory) and address of the page. Address tells either real address in main memory or the address of the page in swap file. b. A computer with a paged virtual memory system executes two load instructions that are adjacent to each other in memory. Describe the worst case scenario (in terms of performance) that can occur during the execution of the two instructions and explain under which conditions this case occurs. How does this affect…
The memory access time is I nanosecond for read operation with a hit in cache. * nanoseconds for a read operation with a miss in cache, 2 nanoseconds for a write operation with a hit in cache and 10 anoseconds for a write operation with a miss in cache. Execution of a sequence of instructions involves 100 instruction fetch operations, 60 memory operand read operations and 40 memory operand write operations. The cache hit-ratio is 0.9. The average memory access time (in nanoseconds) in executing the sequence of instructions is

Given there are six free memory partitions of sizes 100KB, 30OKB, 500KB, 550KB, 250KB and 150KB, respectively in that order. These partitions need to be allocated to five processes of sizes 257KB, 310KB, 68KB, 119KB, 23KB in that order. Assume that the search for free partitions starts from the first memory partition. If the NEXT-FIT algorithm is used with DYNAMIC memory allocation approach, list the sizes of free partitions (holes) available after memory allocation to the five given processes.
