Consider a computer system with multiple shared resource types, with one instance per resource type. Each instance can be owned by only one process at a time. Owning and freeing of resources are done by holding a global lock (L). The following scheme is used to own a resource instance: function OWNRESOURCES(Resource R) Acquire lock L / / a global lock if R is available then Acquire R Release lock L else if R is owned by another process P then Terminate P, after releasing all resources owned by P Acquire R Restart P Release lock L end if end if end function Which of the following choice(s) about the above scheme is/are correct?
A multithreaded program P executes with x number of threads used y number of locks for ensuring mutual exclusion while operating on shared memory locations. All locks in the program are non-re-entrant. i.e. if a thread holds a lock l, then it cannot re-acquire lock l without releasing it. If a thread is unable to acquire a lock, it blocks until the lock becomes available. The minimum value of x and the minimum value of y together for which execution of p can result in a deadlock are:
User level threads are threads that are visible to the programmer and are unknown to the kernel. The operating system kernel supports and manages kernel level threads. Three different types of models relate user and kernel level threads. Which of the following statements is/are true ? (a) (i) The Many - to - one model maps many user threads to one kernel thread (ii) The one - to - one model maps one user thread to one kernel thread (iii) The many - to - many model maps many user threads to smaller or equal kernel threads (b) (i) Many - to - one model maps many kernel threads to one user thread (ii) One - to - one model maps one kernel thread to one user thread (iii) Many - to- many model maps many kernel threads to smaller or equal user threads
With regard to computer memory, which of the following statement(s) is/are TRUE?  (A) Cache memory is 'volatile' memory. (B) Magnetic memory is 'volatile' memory.  (C) Flash memory is 'volatile' memory. (D) RAM is 'volatile' memory. Choose the correct answer from the option given below:
If a higher priority process arrives and wants service, the memory manager can swap out the lower priority process to execute the higher priority process. When the higher priority process finishes, the lower priority process is swapped back in and continues execution. This variant of swapping is sometimes called?
Consider a process executing on an operating system that uses demand paging. The average time for a memory access in the system is M units if the corresponding memory page is available in memory, and D units if the memory access causes a page fault. It has been experimental measured that the average time taken for a memory access in the process is X units. Which one of the following is the correct expression for the page fault rate experienced by the process?
A letter lock consists of 4 rings, each ring contains 9 non-zero digits. This lock can be opened by setting four digit code with the proper combination of each of the 4 rings. Maximum how many codes can be formed to open the lock ?
