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?

On a non-pipelined sequential processor, a program segment, which is a part of the interrupt service routine, is given to transfer 500 bytes from an I/O device to memory.     Initialize the address register     Initialize the count to 500 LOOP: Load a byte from device     Store in memory at address given by address register     Increment the address register     Decrement the count     If count! = 0 go to LOOP Assume that each statement in this program is equivalent to a machine instruction which takes one clock cycle to execute if it is a non-load/store instruction. The load-store instructions take two clock cycles to execute. The designer of the system also has an alternate approach of using the DMA controller to implement the same transfer. The DMA controller requires 20 clock cycles for initialization and other overheads. Each DMA transfer cycle takes two clock cycles to transfer one byte of data from the device to the memory. What is the approximate speedup when the DMA controller based design is used in place of the interrupt driven program based input-output?

A manager in your office received a new Windows 2000 Professional laptop computer. You have been asked to configure offline files for the manager to work on documents at home. You enable offline files, and have the manager log off of the network. During the logoff process, the expected synchronization of offline files does not occur. You have the manager log back on to the network. What can you do to correct the problem?
