b. High performance by serving several processes simultaneously
c. High performance by serving one process
d. None of the above
3. Process is

b. Name of a computer software
c. An execution of programme
d. None of the above
...
9. Non-uniform memory architecture system consists of number of nodes and each node consists
a. Monitor
b. Register
c. Both (a) & (b)
d. 1 or more C.P.Us
10. Receiver initiated algorithm checks whether a node is a
a. Initiator node
b. Receiver node
c. Both (a) & (b)
d. None of the above
True & False:
1. All CPUs in the system can access the entire memory in an identical manner.
2. The Processors of multiprocessors are divides into processor sets.
3. High reliability in distributed file systems can be ensure through sharing semantics.
4. A cached directory is a copy of directory that exists at a primary site.
5. A cluster of nodes is a section of the distributed system that contains sufficient hardware and
software resources.
6. Remote differential compression (RDC) is a protocol for file replication that reduces the file
wherence traffic between servers.
7. Lock variable is used to lock in a computer system.
8. File system integrity implies correctness and consistency of control data and operations of the file
system.
9. A mathematical model consists of 3 components model of the server.
10. The scheduling environment is characterized by two parameters the arrival pattern of requests and
their service pattern.
...
1. Write short note on Memory Protection?
2. What do you understand by Non-contiguous memory allocation?
3. What is Sequential organization?
4. What is direct organization?
5. What do you understand by Virtual Memory?
..
1. Justify the following statement “Thrashing can arise in a paged virtual memory system using
a working set memory allocator; however, it cannot last for long.”
2. Write a short note on actions to be performed during a file deletion operation while it links
exist in the directory structure?
3. An update file is one that is read and modified during processing; a process heads a record
modifies it in memory and writes it back while processing the file.
(a) Which I/O device is best suited for recording an update file?
(b) Is buffering and blocking of records useful for an update file?
END OF SECTION C
..
1. Explain how starvation is avoided is the UNIX and Window system?
2. (a) Does swapping improve / degrade efficiency of system utilization?
(b) Does swapping increase the effective degree of multiprogramming?
(c) Can swapping be used in a multiprogramming system? Clearly justify your answers?
3. Discuss influence of disk scheduling algorithms on effectiveness of I/O buffering?
4. Explore the possibility of implementing the blocking and non-blocking protocols using
monitors. What are the difficulties in the implementation?
