(ii) A control chart determines process variability. (iii) A control chart ensures product quality. (iv) Scrap or percentage reduction can be reduced by taking the necessary actions in time against the warnings indicated by control charts.

You install and run a third-party 32-bit application named Application on your Windows 2000 Server computer. After several days, the application stops responding. You open Task Manager and find that the CPU usage is at 100 percent. The normal range of CPU usage on the server is from 20 percent to 30 percent You end the application. However, you see that the CPU on the server is still at 100 percent. Task Manager shows no other applications running. You then examine the Processes page in Task Manager and confirm that the Application.exe process is no longer running. You want to return the CPU usage to its normal range. What should you do?
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?
Which of the following statement about computer memory are true?  A. Secondary storage is non-volatile storage.  B. Video memory found in graphics cards is volatile memory.  C. Primary memory (RAM) is the fastest form of memory in a computer.  Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A shared variable x, initialized to zero, is operated on by four concurrent processes W, X, Y, Z as follows. Each of the processes W and X reads x from memory, increments by one, stores it to memory, and then terminates. Each of the processes Y and Z reads x from memory, decrements by two, stores it to memory, and then terminates. Each process before reading x invokes the P operation (i.e., wait) on a counting semaphore S and invokes the V operation (i.e., signal) on the semaphore S after storing x to memory. Semaphore S is initialized to two. What is the maximum possible value of x after all processes complete execution?
Assume a memory access to main memory on a cache "miss" takes 30 ns and a memory access to the cache (on a cache "hit") takes 3 ns. If 80% of the processor's memory requests results in a cache "hit", what is the average memory access time?
Examine the following statements about span of control and identify the ones which are true?
1. More task complexity requires narrower span of control.
2. Routine tasks can have greater span of control than exceptional tasks.
3. When tasks are dissimilar, then span of control can be larger.
4. Spans of control are generally narrower at the top and broader at the bottom of the hierarchy.
Consider the following statements: 1. RAM is a non-volatile memory whereas ROM is a volatile memory 2. RAM is a volatile memory whereas ROM is a non-volatile memory 3. Both RAM and ROM are volatile memories but in ROM data is not when power is switched off Which of the above statements are correct?
Consider the following two C code segment. Y and X are one- and two-dimensional arrays of size n and n × n respectively, where 2 ≤ n ≤ 10. Assume that in both code segments, elements of y are initialized to 0 and each element X[i] [j] of array X is initialized to i + j. Further assume that when stored in main memory all elements of x are in same main memory page frame. Code segment 1:                 //initialize elements of y to 0                 //initialize elements X[i] [j] of X to i+j                       for (i = 0; i < n; i++)                                 Y[i] += X[0] [i]; Code Segment 2:                 //initialize elements of Y to 0                 //initialize elements X[i] [j] of X to i+j                        for (i = 0; i < n; i++)                                 Y[i] += X[i] [0]; Which of the following statements is/are correct? S1: Final contents of array Y will be same in both code segments S2: Elements of array X accessed inside the for loop shown in code segment 1 are contiguous in main memory S3: Elements of array X accessed inside the for loop shown in code segment 2 are contiguous in main memory
