Consider a file system that uses a modifed contiguous-allocation scheme with support for extents. A file is a collection of extents, with each ex- tent corresponding to a contiguous set of blocks. A key issue in such systems is the degree of variability in the size of the extents. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the following schemes: a. All extents are of the same size, and the size is predetermined. b. Extents can be of any size and are allocated dynamically. c. Extents can be of a few fixed sizes, and these sizes are predeter- mined.

27. Colton is working on the data structure that is to be used by Universal Bank to store the transactions of users to be displayed on their website interface when the user logs in. Load time needs to be fast, so a fast insertion time is mandatory. The data stored and loaded from the server is already in sorted order.so it is read into Colton's program in sorted order. The data structure does not need fast search times, and no deletion is allowed. The transactions will be shown on the website in order. What data structure would work well for Colton?

Computer system there is a total of 16 blocks with file occupying the following set of block number : f1(1,12,6,9,14,2) F2(10,3) F3(7,15,4) Do allocation with indexed allocation method with 3 direct pointers and one index block pointer، draw the file directory and blocks on disk
I need justify and explain briefly in at least 3 sentences the complexity of each operation in buffer operations in terms of Big O notation of the below code: struct Node { char data; struct Node *next; }; struct Node* head1 = NULL; struct Node* head = NULL; void push(struct Node** head_ref, char new_data) { struct Node* new_node = (struct Node*) malloc(sizeof(struct Node)); new_node->data = new_data; new_node->next = (*head_ref); (*head_ref) = new_node; } void print_list(struct Node* Head) { printf("values are: "); while(Head) { printf("%c ", Head->data); Head = Head->next; } printf("\n"); } bool isEmpty() { return head == NULL; } void pop(struct Node **head_ref, int position) { // If linked list is empty if (*head_ref == NULL) return; // Store head node struct Node* temp = *head_ref; // If head needs to be removed if (position == 0) { *head_ref = temp->next; // Change head…
You are required to propose FOUR functions to develop a complete student record management system. The function are insert, delete, search, update. In addition, you need to use sorted array to complete the system development. Write a program by extending the code from the lab. Think and implement 4 more functions in the program (compulsory function is sorting and searching) Your must build on top of the following code. //FileName: Student.cpp //This program illustrates attributes of class Student using simple data structure #include <iostream.h> class Student { private: struct Data { char Name[25]; char Course[30]; int Result; } stdata; public: void SetData(); void GetData(); };//class Student void Student::SetData() { cout <<”Enter student name:”; cin>> stdata.Name; cout<< “Enter student course: “; cin>> stdata.Course; cout<< “Enter student result:”; cin>> stdata.Result; };//method SetData void Student::GetData() { cout<< “\n…

3 Malloc—Dynamic Memory Allocation 1. Give an example where a malloc()-like allocator would fail due to external fragmentation. 2. Give an example where returning a block to the allocator results in reducing the number of free blocks. Assume an implicit free list is used.

Paging is a memory management scheme that eliminates the need for contiguous allocation of physical memory. This scheme permits the physical address space of a process to be non – contiguous. Given below is one of the page replacement algorithm program, you are to first identify which algorithm (FIFO, Optimal Page Replacement, Least frequently used) is implemented in given c-code. Please consider following reference string for this page replacement algorithm(1,2,3 5,1,3,4,5,6,1,5,3,2) with 4 page/frame size. There are some errors in this program, you have to correct it first, and then explain compiled output with each miss or hit condition. Note: Show complete procedure with detail steps/screenshots with your arid number. #include <stdio.h> void main() { intpos,c,m,maxi,i,k,nf,count,j=0,pf=0,np=0; printf("enter no. of pages"); scanf("%d",&np); int s[np]; printf("Enter pages sequence :\n");…
