Utility Software: 

It helps users configure, analyze, optimize and maintain a computer. This software normally consists of small programs which are thought of as part of the operating system as they often come built-in with the operating system.

Utility Software performs certain tasks like virus detection, installation, and uninstallation, data backup, deletion of unwanted files, etc.

Examples:

  • Antivirus software.
  • File management tools.
  • Compression tools.
  • Disk management tools.
  • Disk cleanup tool.
  • File Management System.
  • Disk Defragmenter.
  • Backup utility.

So, Anti-virus software is an application of utility software.

Hence the correct answer is Anti-virus software.

You are a developer for a XYZ Inc that provides free software over the Internet. You are developing en e-mail application that users all over the world can download. The application displays text strings in the user interface. At run time, these text strings must appear in the language that is appropriate to the locale setting of the computer running the application. You have resources to develop versions of the application for only four different cultures.You must ensure that your application will also be usable by people of other cultures.
How should you prepare the application for deployment?
A simple stand - alone software utility is to be developed in ’C’ programming by a team of software experts for a computer running Linux and the overall size of this software is estimated to be 20,000 lines of code. Considering (a, b) = (2.4, 1.05) as multiplicative and exponention factor for the basic COCOMO effort estimation equation and (c, d)=(2.5, 0.38) as multiplicative and exponention factor for the basic COCOMO development time estimation equation, approximately how long does the software project take to complete ?

Assertion (A): Utility will be maximized when the marginal units of expenditure in each direction bring the same increment of utility.
Reason (R): A consumer will try to maximize his utility.
Assertion (A) Total utility will be maximum, when marginal utility to price of respective products are equal.
Reason (R) Deviation from this situation leads to reduction in maximum utility.
You are a Web developer for XYZ. You create an ASP.NET application that accesses sales and marketing data. The data is stored in a Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database on a server named XYZ01.
