Questions on deadlock: 1. A deadlocked state occurs whenever: A) a process is waiting for I/O to a device that does not exist B) the system has no available free resources C) every process in a set is waiting for an event that can only be caused by another process in the set D) a process is unable to release its request for a resource after use 2. One necessary condition for deadlock is held in a non-sharable mode. , which states that at least one resource must be A) hold and wait B) mutual exclusion C) circular wait D) no preemption 3. One necessary condition for deadlock is one resource and waiting to acquire additional resources. A) hold and wait B) mutual exclusion C) circular wait D) no preemption which states that a process must be holding which states that a resource can be released 4.

A single-CPU system has four processes, P1, P2, P3 and P4 in the ready queue. The execution times and I/O needs for these processes are given below. All times are in ms. (hint: when a process starts an IO operation, it is removed from the ready queue and put back at the end of the queue only when it completes its IO). Process P1: Arrives at 0ms, needs 23ms of CPU time. Performs I/O for 5ms after 10ms of its execution time, then another 5ms after 20ms of its execution time. Process P2: Arrives at 3ms, needs 12ms of CPU time. Performs I/O for 10ms after 5ms of its execution time. Process P3: Arrives at 1ms, needs 15ms of CPU time. Performs I/O for 1ms after 7ms of its execution time. Process P4: Arrives at 2ms, needs 8ms of CPU time. Performs I/O for 5ms after 4ms of its execution time. We assume that the CPU is idle if no one of these four processes is using it. Using Round Robin scheduling algorithm with a Time Quantum of 4ms and ignoring the context switch time, determine: a) The…

If the process arriving has the same remaining execution time as the process in the CPU, then the process that is using the CPU will have the highest priority.Â 2. If there is no process in the execution state and two or more processes have the shortest remaining time, then you will use the lowest PID criterion (using lexicographical order).

In the context of operating systems
Overlapping I/O with computation. The driver inputs a sequence of data items, each of which must be processed before the next item is copied.(The status check has been omitted in the pseudo code for clarity): repeat write parameters for input operation write opcode repeat read busy until FALSE copy data item from input buffer process data item The device does not have to be idle during the processing phase. Modify the code such that the processing is overlapped with the I/O device operation.
Main Memory (MM) and Central Processing Unit are important resources of the computer system that must be carefully managed. The part of Operating System (OS) that manages the memory is called Memory Manager. 'Partition' is a memory management scheme, which allocates processes in MM into a unique fixed-size partition; each partition contains exactly one process. When a partition is free, the OS selects a process from the input queue and loads it into the free partition; when the process terminates, the partition becomes available; a free partition is called 'hole'. Please, reply to the following questions by giving your own ORIGINAL and UNIQUE answers: a) Draw a picture of the Main Memory (MM) divided into A 'assigned partitions' and B 'holes': fix your values for A and B1, and draw the corresponding MM layout. In the following, Pi, Pj and Pk are three processes residing in MM b) Considering the 7 states diagram, answer to the following questions: 1) Can Pi be in the 'New' state? Why?…
