Life Insurance:

Life insurance is a contract between the person who is the insurance policy holder and an insurer in which the insurer is liable to pay a beneficiary of sum of money upon the death of the insured person in exchange for premium payments.  These are generally underwritten using a person’s medical status at the time of applying.

Life Insurance Underwriting:

Life Insurance Underwriting is a process in which the insurance policy holder shares his or her medical data continually with the insurer and the insurer will price policy for continuously for participating customers.

Automobile Insurance:

Automobile Insurance is a contract between the person who is the insurance policy holder for his or her automobile and an insurer in which the insurer is liable to pay a beneficiary of sum of money in case of accident or theft of the automobile in exchange for premium payments.

Usage based Automobile Insurance:

Usage based automobile insurance is also known as pay as you drive in which the costs of the premium are dependent on type of vehicle, distance, accident records and measured against time.

A3Q3.c - You are to write a C program that implements the following disk scheduling algorithms: a. FCFS [10 marks] b. SCAN [10 marks] c. C-SCAN [10 marks] d. SSTF [10 marks] e. LOOK [10 marks] f. C-LOOK [10 marks] • Your program will service a disk with 300 cylinders numbered 0 to 299. • • • • The program will service the requests (a list of 20 cylinder numbers) given in the file request.bin. This file contains (4 byte) integer values representing requests ranging from 0-299. Your program will take the initial position of the disk head as the first command line argument and the direction of the head as the second command line argument. It will then output the requests in the order in which they are serviced, and the total amount of head movements required by each algorithm. In particular, your program needs to do the following: Your program should take two command line arguments a) First command line argument - initial position of the disk head (an integer value) b) Second command line…
2. The memory management has contiguous memory allocation, dynamic partitions, and paging. Compare the internal fragmentation and external fragmentation for these three approaches. [2 marks] 3. Suppose we have Logical address space = 24 = 16 (m = 4), Page size=2² =4 (n = 2), Physical address space = 26 = 64 (r = 6). Answer the following questions: [4 marks] 1) Total # of pages ? 2) Total # of frames ? 3) Number of bits to represent logical address? 4) Number of bits to represent offset ? 5) Number of bits to represent physical address? 6) Number of bits to represent a page number? 7) Number of bits to represent a frame number / 4. What is translation look-aside buffers (TLBS)? Why we need them to implement the page table? [2 marks] 5. Why we need shared pages for multiple processes? Give one example to show the benefits. [2 marks] 6. How to implement the virtual memory by using page out and page in? Explain with an example. [2 marks] 7. We have a reference string of referenced page…
