Consider the following solution to the producer-consumer synchronization problem. The shared buffer size is ?. Three semaphores empty, full and mutex are defined with respective initial values of 0, ? and 1. Semaphore empty denotes the number of available slots in the buffer, for the consumer to read from. Semaphore denotes the number of available slots in the buffer, for the producer to write to. The placeholder variables, denoted by P, Q, R, and S, in the code below can be assigned either empty or full. The valid semaphore operations are: wait ( ) and signal ( ). Producer: Consumer: do {         wait (P) ;         wait (mutex) ;         //Add item to buffer         signal (mutex) ;         signal (Q) ; } while (1) ; do {          wait (R) ;          wait (mutex) ;          //Consume item from buffer          signal (mutex) ;          signal (S) ; } while (1) ;   Which one of the following assignments to P, Q, R and S will yield the correct solution?

Consider the following threads, T1, T2, and T3 executing on a single processor, synchronized using three binary semaphore variables, S1, S2, and S3, operated upon using standard wait() and signal(). The threads can be context switched in any order and at any time. T1 T2 T3 While(true) { Wait(S3); Print(“C”); Signal (S2); } While(true) { Wait(S1); Print(“B”); Signal (S3); } While(true) { Wait(S2); Print(“A”); Signal (S1); }   Which initialization of the semaphores would print the sequence BCABCABCA….?

Two stock options are available for buying. Each offers a variable rate of return of profit over a period of 10 years. For first 4 years one has an incremental rate of return which increases by 2% per year starting from 3% of the investment and stays constant at 8% for the rest of the period. The second one has a constant annual rate of return throughout and give 10% more return after 10 years. What is the annual rate of return on second option?
The height of a tree is defined as the number of edges on the longest path in the tree. The function shown in the pseudocode below is invoked as height(root) to compute the height of a binary tree rooted at the tree pointer root. int height (treeptr n) { if (n == NULL) return -1;   if (n →  left == NULL)        if (n →  right == NULL) return 0;        else return ; \(\boxed{B1}\);     // Box 1 else { h1 = height (n →  left);          if (n → right == NULL) return (1+h1);          else { h2 = height (n → right);          return ; \(\boxed{B2}\)   // Box 2                        }            } } The appropriate expressions for the two boxes B1 and B2 are
The following program consists of 3 concurrent processes and 3 binary semaphores. The semaphores are initialized as S0=1, S1=0, S2=0. Process P0 Process P1 Process P2 While (true) { Wait (S0); Print ‘0’ Release (S1); Release (S2); } Wait (S1); Release (S0); Wait (S2); Release (S0);   How many times will process P0 print ‘0’?
