Explanation of Solution
System software may be defined as a collection of programs that handles many technical details. In order to handle hundreds of technical details, the system software works as an interface between application software, end user, and computer hardware.
The four kinds of system software programs are:
Operating Systems: It acts as an interface between the end user and the computer itself and helps in coordinating computer resources for the application programs.
Utilities: It executes a distinct function to manage the computer resource.
Device Drivers: It is a specific
Language Translator: The computer understands binary language. So, a language translator transforms a program written by a programmer to the language understood by the computer.

1 An Extended Full Adder
In this Section, we are going to design an extended full adder circuit (EFA). That EFA takes 6 one bit inputs: aj, bj,
Cin, Tin, t₁ and to. Depending on the four possible combinations of values on t₁ and to, the EFA produces 3 one bit
outputs: sj, Cout and rout.
The EFA can be specified in principle by a truth table with 26 = 64 entries and 3 outputs. However, as the EFA
ignores certain inputs in certain cases, it is easier to work with the following overview specification, depending only
on t₁ and to in the first place:

Write a C program that is passed a virtual address (in decimal) on the command line and have it output the page number and offset for the given address. As an example, your program would run as follows: ./addresses 19986 Your program would output: The address 19986 contains: page number = 4 offset = 3602 Writing this program will require using the appropriate data type to store 32 bits. We encourage you to use unsigned data types as well. Programming Projects Contiguous Memory Allocation In Section 9.2, we presented different algorithms for contiguous memory allo- cation. This project will involve managing a contiguous region of memory of size MAX where addresses may range from 0 ... MAX - 1. Your program must respond to four different requests: 1.
