AN INVERTED LIST BASED APPROACH TO GENERATE OPTIMISED PATH IN DSR IN MANETS –...Editor IJCATR
In this paper, we design and formulate the inverted list based approach for providing safer path and effective
communication in DSR protocol.Some nodes in network can participate in network more frequenctly whereas some nodes are not
participating. Because of this there is the requirement of such an approach that will take an intelligent decision regarding the sharing of
bandwidth or the resource to a node or the node group. Dynamic source routing protocol (DSR) is an on-demand, source routing
protocol , whereby all the routing information is maintained (continually updated) at mobile nodes.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. File Management
• File management system is considered
part of the operating system
• Input to applications is by means of a
file
• Output is saved in a file for long-term
storage
3. Terms Used with Files
• Field
– Basic element of data
– Contains a single value
– Characterized by its length and data type
• Record
– Collection of related fields
– Treated as a unit
• Example: employee record
4. Terms Used with Files
• File
– Collection of similar records
– Treated as a single entity
– Have unique file names
– May restrict access
• Database
– Collection of related data
– Relationships exist among elements
6. File Management System
• The way a user of application may
access files
• Programmer does not need to develop
file management software
7. Objectives for a
File Management System
• Meet the data management needs and
requirements of the user
• Guarantee that the data in the file are
valid
• Optimize performance
• Provide I/O support for a variety of
storage device types
8. Objectives for a
File Management System
• Minimize or eliminate the potential for
lost or destroyed data
• Provide a standardized set of I/O
interface routines
• Provide I/O support for multiple users
9. Minimal Set of Requirements
• Each user should be able to create,
delete, read, and change files
• Each user may have controlled access to
other users’ files
• Each user may control what type of
accesses are allowed to the users’ files
• Each user should be able to restructure
the user’s files in a form appropriate to
the problem
10. Minimal Set of Requirements
• Each user should be able to move data
between files
• Each user should be able to back up and
recover the user’s files in case of
damage
• Each user should be able to access the
user’s files by using symbolic names
11.
12. Device Drivers
• Lowest level
• Communicates directly with peripheral
devices
• Responsible for starting I/O operations
on a device
• Processes the completion of an I/O
request
13. Basic File System
• Physical I/O
• Deals with exchanging blocks of data
• Concerned with the placement of blocks
• Concerned with buffering blocks in main
memory
14. Basic I/O Supervisor
• Responsible for file I/O initiation and
termination
• Control structures are maintained
• Concerned with scheduling access to
optimize performance
• Part of the operating system
15. Logical I/O
• Enables users and applications to access
records
• Provides general-purpose record I/O
capability
• Maintains basic data about file
16. Access Method
• Reflect different file structures
• Different ways to store and process data
17.
18. File Management Functions
• Identify and locate a selected file
• Use a directory to describe the location
of all files plus their attributes
• On a shared system describe user access
control
• Blocking for access to files
• Allocate files to free blocks
• Manage free storage for available blocks
19. Criteria for File Organization
• Rapid access
– Needed when accessing a single record
– Not needed for batch mode
• Ease of update
– File on CD-ROM will not be updated, so
this is not a concern
20. Criteria for File Organization
• Economy of storage
– Should be minimum redundancy in the data
– Redundancy can be used to speed access
such as an index
• Simple maintenance
• Reliability
21. File Organization
• The Pile
– Data are collected in the order they arrive
– Purpose is to accumulate a mass of data and
save it
– Records may have different fields
– No structure
– Record access is by exhaustive search
23. File Organization
• The Sequential File
– Fixed format used for records
– Records are the same length
– All fields the same (order and length)
– Field names and lengths are attributes of the
file
– One field is the key filed
• Uniquely identifies the record
• Records are stored in key sequence
24. File Organization
• The Sequential File
– New records are placed in a log file or
transaction file
– Batch update is performed to merge the log
file with the master file
26. File Organization
• Indexed Sequential File
– Index provides a lookup capability to
quickly reach the vicinity of the desired
record
• Contains key field and a pointer to the main file
• Indexed is searched to find highest key value
that is equal or less than the desired key value
• Search continues in the main file at the location
indicated by the pointer
27. File Organization
• Comparison of sequential and indexed
sequential
– Example: a file contains 1 million records
– On average 500,00 accesses are required to
find a record in a sequential file
– If an index contains 1000 entries, it will
take on average 500 accesses to find the
key, followed by 500 accesses in the main
file. Now on average it is 1000 accesses
28. File Organization
• Indexed Sequential File
– New records are added to an overflow file
– Record in main file that precedes it is
updated to contain a pointer to the new
record
– The overflow is merged with the main file
during a batch update
– Multiple indexes for the same key field can
be set up to increase efficiency
30. File Organization
• Indexed File
– Uses multiple indexes for different key
fields
– May contain an exhaustive index that
contains one entry for every record in the
main file
– May contain a partial index
32. File Organization
• The Direct, or Hashed File
– Directly access a block at a known address
– Key field required for each record
33. File Directories
• Contains information about files
– Attributes
– Location
– Ownership
• Directory itself is a file owned by the
operating system
• Provides mapping between file names
and the files themselves
34. Simple Structure for a
Directory
• List of entries, one for each file
• Sequential file with the name of the file
serving as the key
• Provides no help in organizing the files
• Forces user to be careful not to use the
same name for two different files
35. Two-level Scheme for a
Directory
• One directory for each user and a master
directory
• Master directory contains entry for each user
– Provides address and access control information
• Each user directory is a simple list of files for
that user
• Still provides no help in structuring collections
of files
36. Hierarchical, or Tree-
Structured Directory
• Master directory with user directories
underneath it
• Each user directory may have
subdirectories and files as entries
37.
38.
39. Hierarchical, or Tree-
Structured Directory
• Files can be located by following a path
from the root, or master, directory down
various branches
– This is the pathname for the file
• Can have several files with the same file
name as long as they have unique path
names
40. Hierarchical, or Tree-
Structured Directory
• Current directory is the working
directory
• Files are referenced relative to the
working directory
41. File Sharing
• In multiuser system, allow files to be
shared among users
• Two issues
– Access rights
– Management of simultaneous access
42. Access Rights
• None
– User may not know of the existence of the
file
– User is not allowed to read the user
directory that includes the file
• Knowledge
– User can only determine that the file exists
and who its owner is
43. Access Rights
• Execution
– The user can load and execute a program
but cannot copy it
• Reading
– The user can read the file for any purpose,
including copying and execution
• Appending
– The user can add data to the file but cannot
modify or delete any of the file’s contents
44. Access Rights
• Updating
– The user can modify, deleted, and add to the
file’s data. This includes creating the file,
rewriting it, and removing all or part of the
data
• Changing protection
– User can change access rights granted to
other users
• Deletion
– User can delete the file
45. Access Rights
• Owners
– Has all rights previously listed
– May grant rights to others using the
following classes of users
• Specific user
• User groups
• All for public files
46. Simultaneous Access
• User may lock entire file when it is to be
updated
• User may lock the individual records
during the update
• Mutual exclusion and deadlock are
issues for shared access
51. Preallocation
• Need the maximum size for the file at
the time of creation
• Difficult to reliably estimate the
maximum potential size of the file
• Tend to overestimated file size so as not
to run out of space
52. Methods of File Allocation
• Contiguous allocation
– Single set of blocks is allocated to a file at
the time of creation
– Only a single entry in the file allocation
table
• Starting block and length of the file
• External fragmentation will occur
53.
54.
55. Methods of File Allocation
• Chained allocation
– Allocation on basis of individual block
– Each block contains a pointer to the next block in
the chain
– Only single entry in the file allocation table
• Starting block and length of file
• No external fragmentation
• Best for sequential files
• No accommodation of the principle of locality
56.
57.
58. Methods of File Allocation
• Indexed allocation
– File allocation table contains a separate one-
level index for each file
– The index has one entry for each portion
allocated to the file
– The file allocation table contains block
number for the index
63. Windows 2000 File System
• Key features of NTFS
– Recoverability
– Security
– Large disks and large files
– Multiple data streams
– General indexing facility
