Nt1330 Final Paper
Consider the following preemptive priority–scheduling algorithm based on dynamically changing
priorities. Larger priority numbers indicate higher priority (e.g., priority 3 is higher priority than
priority 1; priority 0 is higher priority than priority –1, etc.). When a process is waiting for the CPU
in the ready queue, its priority changes at the rate of  per unit of time; when it is running, its
priority changes at the rate of  per unit of time. All processes are assigned priority 0 when they
enter the ready queue. Answer the following questions:
(a) What is the scheduling algorithm that results when     0? Explain.
(b) What is the scheduling algorithm that results when     0? Explain.

For calculating the CPU time of a process in the recent past, a time window of size t is maintained
and the recent CPU time used by a process at time T is calculated as the sum of the CPU times used
by the process between time T and T– t. It is argued that this particular scheduling algorithm (a) will
favor I/O–bound processes, and (b) will not permanently starve CPU–bound processes. Do you
agree/disagree with (a) and (b)? Explain.
Q.3 [10 marks] Consider a variant of the round robin (RR) scheduling algorithm in which the entries
in the ready queue are pointers to the Process Control Blocks (PCBs), rather than the PCBs. A
malicious user wants to take advantage and somehow, through a security loophole in the system,
manages to put two pointers to the PCB of his/her process with the intention that it can run twice as
much. Explain what serious consequence(s) it could have if the (malicious) intention goes
undetected by the OS.

One of the main characteristics of the system is its decimal nature; therefore, the conversion
between smaller and larger units is made by moving the decimal point to the left of right. The SI
system of units (Systeme International d'Unites), developed from the metric system, and has been
defined and recommended as the system of choice for scientific use worldwide. The primary units in
the SI system which are of interest to the motor mechanic are as follows: QUANTITY UNIT
SYMBOL Length Meter m Mass Kilogram kg Capacity Litre l Temperature Degree Celsius oC
Temperature Degree Kelvin K Time Second s Force Newton N Heat Joule j Power Watt w 4.0
Derived Units Derived units are those which can be expressed in terms of the primary units so as to
provide more units to work with. There is a primary unit for length, but not for area or volume,
however, it is possible to derive units for area and volume from the primary units. Any area is
measured as the products of two lengths. It can be said that an area has the dimensions of (length)
x (breadth) and so is measured in squared units. Area = length x breadth and if the length of each of
these is given in meters, then, area = m x m = m2 so the derived unit for area is the square meter
which is written m2. Another derived unit is that of volume which is expressed in cubic meters
written as m3 Volume = length x breadth x height; m x m x m = m3

The server should keep track in stable storage (such as a disk log) information regarding what RPC
operations were received, whether they were successfully performed, and the results associated with

When a process is terminated, it briefly moves to the zombie state and remains in that state until the
parent invokes a call to wait(). When this occurs, the process id as well as entry in the process table
are both released. However, if a parent does not invoke wait(), the child process remains a zombie as
long as the parent remains alive. Once the parent process terminates, the init process becomes the
new parent of the zombie. Periodically, the init process calls wait() which ultimately releases the pid
and entry in the process table of the zombie process.

If a kernel thread suffers a page fault with multithreads, another thread can be swapped for it. if you
have a single–threaded process, then it will not be capable of performing well when a page fault

A Report On The Management System
Section 2: Problem Explained
As stated above, BGC is done after a resource is hired. Now an unverified resource is there in the
company which directly alarms security issues if that resource is found to be fraud or have a
criminal background. Several problems hits when a BGC is done after hiring, some of which are:
a) An unidentified resource is in the company which alarms security.
b) No one is sure if the resource is having the proper education criteria which s/he has shown.
c) A resource is to be paid for the time s/he is on bench when he is unbilled by the client which hits
direct cost of the company.
d) A resource is using space, water, electricity without getting billed.
e) A resource is not even getting trained and allowed to sit idle.
These are certain issues which no company can ignore as if they fail, it will compromise with the
reputation of the company. Although, several measures has been taken to train the employee while
BGC is conducted which will at least reduce the time to get a resource to properly indulge into a
project.
A Better approach is needed because the above situations are such which impact direct cost of the
company and it's not like that it can't be eliminated but necessary steps is to be taken to eliminate
them which will reduce direct cost and increase gross margin. Thus a new approach is requires here

3.8) Scheduler: Scheduler in an operating system selects the next process to be admitted into the
system and next process to run. The three schedulers and their differences are as follows:–
Long Term Scheduler: Long term scheduler also known as job scheduler, selects the process or jobs
which are to be allowed to the ready queue in the main memory for execution. It decides what
processes are to be run on the system. Long term scheduling has much less frequency of execution.
The long term scheduler is responsible for controlling the degree of multiprogramming. Because of
longer periods between the executions, long term scheduler has an ability to take time in selecting
the process for execution. It is important to select an appropriate process. Generally processes can
be described as I/O bound or CPU bound. I/O bound spends more time in doing I/O operations
rather than other computations. CPU bound is contrast to I/O bound, which spends time doing all

It has a thread ID, a program counter, a register set, and a stack. Thread is smaller than a process so
thread creation needs only some resources when with a process creation. In creating a process, it
requires to allocate the process control block (PCB).The PCB includes a memory map and list of
open files. A process creation makes memory being allocated for program instructions and data.
4.11) Concurrency: A condition that exists when at least two threads are in progress. Parallelism: A
condition that exists when two threads are executing in parallel. Yes it is possible to have
concurrency but not parallelism. This can be explained as: If there are 4 threads and they are
executed on a single computing or multiple computing system, the threads will be in progress even
though they do not execute in parallel way. This condition satisfies concurrency but no parallelism.

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Round Robin Schedulinging...
1. INTRODUCTION
An operating system is an interface between the user of the computer and the computer hardware.
The main purpose of the operating system is to provide user an environment where he can run the
programs in the efficient manner. CPU is considered to be the heart of the system so it should be
effectively used. Improper use of CPU can reduce the system's efficiency. Hence processes are been
continuously running in the CPU to make it more efficient and have maximum utilization. The topic
we have chosen is enhanced round robin scheduling. There is a reason for selecting round robin
scheduling as it a very fair scheduling that gives equal time quantum to all process. This is the major
advantage over all other scheduling algorithms. In operating system multi–programming is a major
issue. The main aim is to run several processes ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This major drawback in Round Robin scheduling. Due to this system performance is degraded.
More number of Context switches are been used. This leads to wastage of memory and time , and
also leads to scheduler overhead.
Due to this more number of Context switches ,Throughput is also very low.
Due to all this disadvantages the existing Round Robin Scheduling algorithm is made unfit for the
present real time systems. So these drawbacks are being limited in the proposed system. The Round
Robin scheduling is sensitive to the time quantum. The following two cases arise for scheduling
round robin algorithm
If the time quantum is too small then the Round Robin scheduling becomes Processor sharing
algorithm and hence Context Switches becomes high.
If the time quantum is high then the Round Robin Scheduling becomes First Come First Serve

algorithm performance. The quantities which gets affect by this are

Basic Parameters That Affect The Performance
7. Basic Parameters That Affect The Performance in RTOS
7.1 Multi–tasking and preemptable:
In RTOS the system have to be multitasking and preemptable because those two features make the
RTOS Scheduler end any lower priority task to execute the higher ones or to release some resources
for other tasks that urgently need those resources. Also the system have to handle different level of
priorities of interrupts.(Yerraballi,R. 2000)
7.2 Dynamic deadline identification:
In some scheduling algorithms such as (EDF)the deadline is converted to priority levels. Then we
can control priorities by controlling the deadlines.Although such an approach is error prone,
nonetheless it is employed for lack of a better solution(Buttazzo, 2005).
7.3 Predictable synchronization:
The threads of the system need to communication and to be synchronized in a timely efficient and
predictable way.
7.4 Sufficient Priority Levels:
In the scheduling algorithms based on priorities. There must be enough levels of priorities. Priority
inversion occur when a low level priority hold the resource that the the high level priority is waiting
for or blocked due to this resource, and the lower priority is delayed because low priority task. Two
workarounds in dealing with priority inversion, namely priority inheritance and priority ceiling
protocols (PCP), need sufficient priority levels.
7.5 Predefined latencies:
The timing of the systems must be predictable and this is done by defining task switching

To protect against Byzantine failures, the processes adopted a protocol as described in the slides, in
particular, each process broadcasts its own state to all others, assembles the state received from
others, and then broadcasts its view of the full state to all others. Suppose that, after this, process 1
receives the information provided below. Identify the process(es) that have Byzantine failure, if any,
based on this data. Briefly justify your answer. From 2 got (3,4,1,5,8) From 3 got (3,3,1,6,8) From 4

all the other processes. We can see that all processes received 3 from process 1. All Processes
received a different number from process 2, making it a possible Byzantine failure. From process 3,
all processes received 1. From process 4, majority received 5 from process 4, except process 3,
which received a 6, making process 4 a possible Byzantine failure. All processes received 8 from

Change Progress and Prosperity
Change Progress and Prosperity The Harvest took place in a small, secluded, and self–reliant
agricultural community in England, before the industrial revolution. The novel was based on
change, growth, progress and prosperity. The village, as the narrator Walter Thirsk stated was, far
from everywhere (Crace, 3) and isolated from the world. The village was also fragmented and
missing any development of identity. The commons were the people living in the unnamed
village. The commons way of life changed from harvesting and plowing to extracting wool for
clothing. Jim Crace examined the themes of change and fragmentation by the loss of identity and
way of life through the use of symbols, characters, and imagery. In the Harvest, symbolism was
evident throughout the novel. Symbols are commonly used to add richness and depth to the story.
The author used symbols to develop the main themes of change and fragmentation. During the
course of the novel, the most significant symbols included: fire, crops, ghost, unfinished cross,
quills, sheep, wool, and the rock. In the novel, fire was the most impactful symbol. The novel started
with two fires and ended in one. What starts with fire will end with fire (Crace, 198). The element
of fire represents a variety of meanings such as: passion, hope, anger, devastation, and betrayal. In

This experiment was used to explore how finite resources can be used and exploited when they are
shared throughout a group because of personal greed. The Tragedy of the Commons is the
situation where individuals shared a resource with others, but use the resource for their personal
gain, disregarding the impact it could have on the rest of the group and the fact that it is a finite
resource. During the experiment, in Part I, I observed that at one point we were going to run out of

In Part II, I got different results because as a group we did not exploit the resources in either of the
ponds
In Part I, I took as many fish as I could, but in Part II, as a group we took only as much as we
needed to survive
If you cooperated that meant that everyone survived and the pond would not run out of fish.
In both the common and private pond I took only two fish so that the population of the pond would
reach carrying capacity for the start of each round.
Common usage can lead to exploitation because one of the members of the group could get greedy
and exploit the pond for everybody.
The ideal way to manage the common pond would be so that each party would only take what they
need so that the population of the pond could replenish for each round.
If I didn't know the students in my group I wouldn't want to communicate as much.
To avoid the tragedy of the commons there should be limits on how much of a resource people
can use over a certain time so that it doesn't get exploited.
If a new student joined my group we would not have been able to divide the fish up evenly to

The Problems Of The Tableau Procedure
As we mentioned in the introduction section, one of the time problems related to the Tableau
procedure is checking if the branch is closed or not. The ordinary way for checking if a branch is
closed is known as highly time–cost process. We need an intelligent and simple way to construct
and check the branches. One way, is to use ordered branches (i.e. to put the negated predicates in the
branch first, and then not negated ones), but we still have a problem if the number of negated
elements is much greater than the not negated ones. The following scenario is possible in this case,
If we choose to check if the list contains neg X and X, if neg X is the last element in the negative
ones, and X is the last element in the not negated ones, we have to process all the elements of the
negated ones and in each time we process an element we start from the beginning of the list and
process the whole branch to check if its not negated element is exist. Of course, a lot of time is
consumed before tableau reaches neg X, and finds out that X is exist. branch. The third predicate
closed / 1 check the lists in the branch if the negative one is shorter than the positive on the
predicate checks if neg X is a member of the first list and X is a member of the second list;
otherwise it checks if X is in the positive list and neg
X in the negative one.
The fourth improvement, and the main idea of our implementation, is to use the multi–threading
approach in implementing the tableau procedure.

Importance Of Common Stock By John Locke
When dealing with a common stock within a society, one would assume that taking from the
commons would leave other people worse off than they were before. However, this is not the case
according to John Locke. In the beginning of Locke's Second Treatise on Civil Government (1690),
he acknowledges that all men are equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life
liberty or possessions (бї 6). This raises the question of whether taking from the commons harms
another person's interest or not. According to Locke, the common stock is everything that God, as
King David says (Psalm 115:16), 'has given the earth to the children of men' (бї 25). Locke argues
that taking from the commons would not affect the other people in society negatively, but it would
instead enhance the value of the commons themselves. Locke utilizes the abundancy of the
commons and the theory that applying one's labor to an object taken from the commons raises the
value of the common stock.
The First Objection to the Thesis Locke's first argument is that the commons are so abundant that
there is no need to worry about depleting resources. While discussing appropriation in the
commons, Locke infers that no man's labour could subdue or appropriate all, nor could his
enjoyment consume more than a small part (бї 36). One man alone could not subdue all the objects
in the commons, but what does this mean when everyone is appropriating? This raises an issue as

Power screws are utilized to change over rotatory movement into translatory motion. A screw jack is
an illustration of a power screw in which a little force implemented in an horizontal plane is utilized
to raise or bring down the load. The principle on which it works is like that of a inclined plane. The

The operation remains a crucial part of the system despite the fact that with changing demands on
physical input, the level of motorization is expanded.
Degrees of automation are of two types, Full automation and Semi automation. In semi
mechanization a mix of manual exertion and mechanical power is required while in full automation
human participation is extremely unimportant.
Requirement for Automation
Automation can be obtained through personal computers,hydrodynamics,pneumatics et cectra .
Automation obtains a key role in vast scale manufacturing. The machines intended for creating a
specific item are called trnasfer machines. The segments must be moved naturally from the canisters
to different machines consecutively and the last part can be put independently for bundling.

Common Threads Throughout Judaism, Christianity, and Islam
The monotheistic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have over many thousands of years
established many traditions and beliefs. Many of these are from their respective book of scripture
such as the Bible, Torah, or Qu'ran. Others are from the interpretation of the religions over the many
years from their leaders and the generational stories that have been passed down. Many of these can
be seen as quite similar between the religions, but others can be considered unique to each one of
them. There are many concepts that can be analyzed across these religions. The goal of this essay
will be to focus and to put an understanding to some of the main concepts that include ultimate
reality, human beings, community/society and nature (science) and how these influence the
believers' understanding of what it means to religious. To begin, let's start with the concept of
ultimate reality. This term represents the belief of one creator who, in his love, created all things. In
Judaism, there is the presentation of one true and indivisible God the creator of all things, and that
God cannot be any more than one being or spirit. Teachings and prophecies about God are found in
the Torah which is the book of scripture in Judaism, but are also found in the old testament of the
Hebrew bible. The word of God is presented here and through the Jewish people God has revealed
himself in stories that have been translated, understood, and followed over many generations. The

Each scan may have different times associated with it depending on the type to be performed,
limiting the capacity of the overall process. Each step in the scanning process is dependent upon the
previous one therefore improvements need to start at the beginning. The objective here is to improve
the process flow up to the point that the actual scan will take place. I also believe that patients are
not being properly screened prior to arrival which is causing Quinte MRI losses in revenue and
time. If a patient turns up and has to be turned away, or rescheduled for misdiagnosis there is a
resulting disruption in the flow of patients which will impact the schedule and process and
ultimately the pocket and reputation of the company. Further, it appears that the technologist is
engaged in performing pre–screening services and this is a highly paid employee who should not be
pre–screening patients. This tasked could best be left to a lower paid trained staff. From an
operational perspective it appears that the initial implementation process of the new machine had a
learning curve. This resulted in longer lead times for processing patients during the first few weeks

sufficient experience in the use of that model machine. Communication, and barriers to, seems to be

Scheduling In Ant Colony
3.3 Scheduling in Ant Colony
CPU scheduling is the basis of multiprogrammed operating systems. By switching the CPU among
processes, the operating system can make the computer more productive.
In a single–processor system, only one process can run at a time; any others must wait until the CPU
is free and can be rescheduled. The objective of multiprogramming is to have some process running
at all times, to maximize CPU utilization. The idea is relatively simple. A process is executed until it
must wait, typically for the completion of some I/O request. In a simple computer system, the CPU
then just sits idle. All this waiting time is wasted; no useful work is accomplished. With
multiprogramming, we try to use this time productively. Several processes are kept in memory at
one time. When one process has to wait, the operating system takes the CPU away from that process
and gives the CPU to another process. This pattern continues. Every time one process has to wait,
another process can take over use of the CPU. Scheduling of this kind is a fundamental operating–
system function [18].
Scheduling problems play a central role in ACO research, and many different types of scheduling
problems have been attacked with ACO algorithms (see table 2 [1]) The performance, however,

The Operating System Linux
3. Linux
3.1 Introduction:
The operating system Linux is an open source version of UNIX [6]. In 1992 [8] Linus Torvalds,
who was a computer science student –at the University of Helsinki– [6], was the one who started
this operating system.
Linux is used on variety of hardware (e.g. on workstations, mid–and high–end servers and on
gadgets), which makes it unique [6]. Linux keeps maintaining its position in the market due to the
hard work of both employees and volunteers [6].
Previously, UNIX systems used batch jobs, which run a process until it is finished and then the next
process will run [8]. What UNIX used is known as non–preemptive scheduling [8]. After years,
preemptive scheduling was used to run processes in parallel by switching between them [8].
3.2 Scheduling Technique: Linux scheduler is based on Time–Sharing Scheduling technique [7],
which means It can effectively schedule tasks that have strict timing requirements. The CPU is
divided into small sections, which allows many process to run simultaneously [7]. Time–sharing
depends on timer interrupts [7].
3.2 Scheduling Priorities:
The priority ranges differ for real– time tasks and normal tasks in Linux scheduler [1]. In real–time
tasks: priorities vary from 0 to 99. In normal tasks: processes' priorities range from 100 to 139.
Processes who have higher priorities are numerically lower than others [1].

v) We need to consider business strategy: will the process capacity be higher if Kristen offers only

The process capacity will not change in the short term if Kristen offers only non–customized
cookies. The case study makes it clear that the process that Kristen follows requires specific
amounts of time to be spent at each step. However, in the long term, Kristen's capacity will increase
as she becomes more adept at making the one type of cookie she has elected to make. This will
reduce the time required at some of the process steps (but not necessarily all) and ultimately
increase the output capacity her and her roommate are able to achieve.

The issue of lands falls under section 35 of the constitution. First Nations were offered little or no
choice since they were weakened by poverty as a result from whiskey traders, epidemics which
almost wiped them off their country, and the shortage of food as buffalo herds almost became
extinct in the 1800.
As a result of the issues faced by First Nations, in 1876 the government of Canada decided to
implement a law known as the Indian act. The Indian Act categorized First Nations into status and
non–status Indians. Status Indians are descendants of First Nations who signed the treaties, non–
status Indians are descendants of First Nations who did not sign treaties.
The Indian Act empowered the Canadian government in controlling the lives of First Nations. First
Nations no longer had the freedom to be who they were, and they could not live wherever they
wanted. For instance, if a status Indian woman marries a non–status Indian man, she would stripped
off the government rights toward Indians and she would not be recognized as an Indian by the
crown.
In exchange of their land, First Nations received reserved land, and a payment from the government,

User view: From user point of view operating system should be convenient and easy to use and

services provided by the operating system that are designed for easy to use computer system.
a) Program Execution: The major purpose of the operating system is to allow the user to execute
programs easily. The operating system provides an environment where users can conveniently run
or execute programs and as well as able to end programs. Running programs involves memory
management (the allocation and de–allocation memory), device management, processor ... Show

sensors, motion detectors etc.). Almost all programs require some sort of input and produces output.
This involves the use of I/O operations. The operating system hides the low level hardware
communication for I/O operations from the user. User only specifies device and the operation to
perform, and only see that I/O has been performed (i.e. choosing one of the printer in office for
printing service). For security and efficiency, user level programs cannot control I/O operations.
Therefore, the operating system must facilitate these services.
System view: From a system point of view operating system should allocate resources (use system
hardware) in a fair and efficient manner. This includes algorithms for CPUs scheduling and avoiding
deadlocks etc. Following are two services for system hardware.
a) Resource Allocation: Modern computers are capable of running multiple programs and can be
used by multiple users at the same time. Resources allocation/management is the dynamic allocation
and de–allocation by the operating system of (hardware) including processors, memory pages, and
various types of bandwidth to the computation that compete for those resources. Operating system
kernel, in which all these functions, algorithms and services reside, is in charge of taking care of
resource allocation. The objective is to allocate resources so as to optimise responsiveness subject to
the finite resources available.

How do they differ from those used when a process is created?
Answer: Thread does not require new resources to execute. Creating a process requires allocating a
process control block (PCB), a rather large data structure. The PCB includes a memory map, list of
open files, and environment variables. Allocating and managing the memory map is typically the
most time–consuming activity. Creating either a user or kernel thread involves allocating a small
data structure to hold a register set, stack, and priority.
Busy waiting is a technique in which a process repeatedly checks to see if a condition is true without
getting the processor time. While a process is in its critical section, any other process that tries to
enter its critical section must loop continuously to get the critical section. This will make the process
eat CPU (usually). That is just busy for waiting the processor time. Busy waiting cannot be avoided
altogether. High priority processes and time critical functions will actually use a busy waiting

Nt1330 Final Paper

  • 1. Nt1330 Final Paper Consider the following preemptive priority–scheduling algorithm based on dynamically changing priorities. Larger priority numbers indicate higher priority (e.g., priority 3 is higher priority than priority 1; priority 0 is higher priority than priority –1, etc.). When a process is waiting for the CPU in the ready queue, its priority changes at the rate of per unit of time; when it is running, its priority changes at the rate of per unit of time. All processes are assigned priority 0 when they enter the ready queue. Answer the following questions: (a) What is the scheduling algorithm that results when 0? Explain. (b) What is the scheduling algorithm that results when 0? Explain. Somebody proposed a CPU scheduling algorithm ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... For calculating the CPU time of a process in the recent past, a time window of size t is maintained and the recent CPU time used by a process at time T is calculated as the sum of the CPU times used by the process between time T and T– t. It is argued that this particular scheduling algorithm (a) will favor I/O–bound processes, and (b) will not permanently starve CPU–bound processes. Do you agree/disagree with (a) and (b)? Explain. Q.3 [10 marks] Consider a variant of the round robin (RR) scheduling algorithm in which the entries in the ready queue are pointers to the Process Control Blocks (PCBs), rather than the PCBs. A malicious user wants to take advantage and somehow, through a security loophole in the system, manages to put two pointers to the PCB of his/her process with the intention that it can run twice as much. Explain what serious consequence(s) it could have if the (malicious) intention goes undetected by the OS. Q.4 [10 marks] Consider the version of the dining philosopher's problem in which the chopsticks are placed in the centre of the table and any two of them can be used by a philosopher. Assume that requests for chopsticks are made one chopstick at a time. Describe a simple rule for ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... One of the main characteristics of the system is its decimal nature; therefore, the conversion between smaller and larger units is made by moving the decimal point to the left of right. The SI system of units (Systeme International d'Unites), developed from the metric system, and has been defined and recommended as the system of choice for scientific use worldwide. The primary units in the SI system which are of interest to the motor mechanic are as follows: QUANTITY UNIT SYMBOL Length Meter m Mass Kilogram kg Capacity Litre l Temperature Degree Celsius oC Temperature Degree Kelvin K Time Second s Force Newton N Heat Joule j Power Watt w 4.0 Derived Units Derived units are those which can be expressed in terms of the primary units so as to provide more units to work with. There is a primary unit for length, but not for area or volume, however, it is possible to derive units for area and volume from the primary units. Any area is measured as the products of two lengths. It can be said that an area has the dimensions of (length) x (breadth) and so is measured in squared units. Area = length x breadth and if the length of each of these is given in meters, then, area = m x m = m2 so the derived unit for area is the square meter which is written m2. Another derived unit is that of volume which is expressed in cubic meters written as m3 Volume = length x breadth x height; m x m x m = m3 ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Nt1330 Unit 1 Case Study *3.7 The server should keep track in stable storage (such as a disk log) information regarding what RPC operations were received, whether they were successfully performed, and the results associated with the operations. When a server crash takes place and a RPC message is received, the server can check whether the RPC had been previously performed and therefore guarantee exactly once semantics for the execution of RPCs. 3.8 Short–term: First it selects a process that's already in memory and ready to execute. Then it allocates the CPU to it. Medium–term scheduler: It selects processes from the ready or blocked queue and removes them from memory. Then it reinstates them later to continue running. Long–term scheduler: This determines which jobs are ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This will allow the values of the CPU registers and memory allocation to be saved. Context switches are able to flush data and have instruction caches. 3.10 *3.11 When a process is terminated, it briefly moves to the zombie state and remains in that state until the parent invokes a call to wait(). When this occurs, the process id as well as entry in the process table are both released. However, if a parent does not invoke wait(), the child process remains a zombie as long as the parent remains alive. Once the parent process terminates, the init process becomes the new parent of the zombie. Periodically, the init process calls wait() which ultimately releases the pid and entry in the process table of the zombie process. 4.7 If a kernel thread suffers a page fault with multithreads, another thread can be swapped for it. if you have a single–threaded process, then it will not be capable of performing well when a page fault occurs. Therefore, in scenarios where a program might suffer from frequent page faults, a multi– threaded solution would perform better even on a single–processor system. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Several problems hits when a BGC is done after hiring, some of which are: a) An unidentified resource is in the company which alarms security. b) No one is sure if the resource is having the proper education criteria which s/he has shown. c) A resource is to be paid for the time s/he is on bench when he is unbilled by the client which hits direct cost of the company. d) A resource is using space, water, electricity without getting billed. e) A resource is not even getting trained and allowed to sit idle. These are certain issues which no company can ignore as if they fail, it will compromise with the reputation of the company. Although, several measures has been taken to train the employee while BGC is conducted which will at least reduce the time to get a resource to properly indulge into a project. A Better approach is needed because the above situations are such which impact direct cost of the company and it's not like that it can't be eliminated but necessary steps is to be taken to eliminate them which will reduce direct cost and increase gross margin. Thus a new approach is requires here which will analyze these issues in depth and propose a solution to eliminate them. To support this, let us talk in terms of revenue, cost and ...

The three schedulers and their differences are as follows:– Long Term Scheduler: Long term scheduler also known as job scheduler, selects the process or jobs which are to be allowed to the ready queue in the main memory for execution. It decides what processes are to be run on the system. Long term scheduling has much less frequency of execution. The long term scheduler is responsible for controlling the degree of multiprogramming. Because of longer periods between the executions, long term scheduler has an ability to take time in selecting the process for execution. It is important to select an appropriate process. Generally processes can be described as I/O bound or CPU bound. I/O bound spends more time in doing I/O operations rather than other computations. CPU bound is contrast to I/O bound, which spends time doing all other ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... It has a thread ID, a program counter, a register set, and a stack.

  • 7. Advantages And Disadvantages Of Round Robin Schedulinging... 1. INTRODUCTION An operating system is an interface between the user of the computer and the computer hardware. The main purpose of the operating system is to provide user an environment where he can run the programs in the efficient manner. CPU is considered to be the heart of the system so it should be effectively used. Improper use of CPU can reduce the system's efficiency. Hence processes are been continuously running in the CPU to make it more efficient and have maximum utilization. The topic we have chosen is enhanced round robin scheduling. There is a reason for selecting round robin scheduling as it a very fair scheduling that gives equal time quantum to all process. This is the major advantage over all other scheduling algorithms. In operating system multi–programming is a major issue. The main aim is to run several processes ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This major drawback in Round Robin scheduling. Due to this system performance is degraded. More number of Context switches are been used. This leads to wastage of memory and time , and also leads to scheduler overhead. Due to this more number of Context switches ,Throughput is also very low. Due to all this disadvantages the existing Round Robin Scheduling algorithm is made unfit for the present real time systems. So these drawbacks are being limited in the proposed system. The Round Robin scheduling is sensitive to the time quantum. The following two cases arise for scheduling round robin algorithm If the time quantum is too small then the Round Robin scheduling becomes Processor sharing algorithm and hence Context Switches becomes high. If the time quantum is high then the Round Robin Scheduling becomes First Come First Serve algorithm. For every value of time quantum will have specific performance and will certainly affect the algorithm performance.

Basic Parameters That Affect The Performance in RTOS 7.1 Multi–tasking and preemptable: In RTOS the system have to be multitasking and preemptable because those two features make the RTOS Scheduler end any lower priority task to execute the higher ones or to release some resources for other tasks that urgently need those resources. Also the system have to handle different level of priorities of interrupts.(Yerraballi,R. 2000) 7.2 Dynamic deadline identification: In some scheduling algorithms such as (EDF)the deadline is converted to priority levels. Then we can control priorities by controlling the deadlines.Although such an approach is error prone, nonetheless it is employed for lack of a better solution(Buttazzo, 2005). 7.3 Predictable synchronization: The threads of the system need to communication and to be synchronized in a timely efficient and predictable way. 7.4 Sufficient Priority Levels: In the scheduling algorithms based on priorities. There must be enough levels of priorities. Priority inversion occur when a low level priority hold the resource that the the high level priority is waiting for or blocked due to this resource, and the lower priority is delayed because low priority task.

To protect against Byzantine failures, the processes adopted a protocol as described in the slides, in particular, each process broadcasts its own state to all others, assembles the state received from others, and then broadcasts its view of the full state to all others.

  • 15. Change Progress and Prosperity Change Progress and Prosperity The Harvest took place in a small, secluded, and self–reliant agricultural community in England, before the industrial revolution. The novel was based on change, growth, progress and prosperity. The village, as the narrator Walter Thirsk stated was, far from everywhere (Crace, 3) and isolated from the world. The village was also fragmented and missing any development of identity. The commons were the people living in the unnamed village. The commons way of life changed from harvesting and plowing to extracting wool for clothing. Jim Crace examined the themes of change and fragmentation by the loss of identity and way of life through the use of symbols, characters, and imagery. In the Harvest, symbolism was evident throughout the novel. Symbols are commonly used to add richness and depth to the story. The author used symbols to develop the main themes of change and fragmentation. During the course of the novel, the most significant symbols included: fire, crops, ghost, unfinished cross, quills, sheep, wool, and the rock. In the novel, fire was the most impactful symbol. The novel started with two fires and ended in one. What starts with fire will end with fire (Crace, 198).

In both the common and private pond I took only two fish so that the population of the pond would reach carrying capacity for the start of each round. Common usage can lead to exploitation because one of the members of the group could get greedy and exploit the pond for everybody. The ideal way to manage the common pond would be so that each party would only take what they need so that the population of the pond could replenish for each round.

  • 19. The Problems Of The Tableau Procedure As we mentioned in the introduction section, one of the time problems related to the Tableau procedure is checking if the branch is closed or not. The ordinary way for checking if a branch is closed is known as highly time–cost process. We need an intelligent and simple way to construct and check the branches. One way, is to use ordered branches (i.e. to put the negated predicates in the branch first, and then not negated ones), but we still have a problem if the number of negated elements is much greater than the not negated ones. The following scenario is possible in this case, If we choose to check if the list contains neg X and X, if neg X is the last element in the negative ones, and X is the last element in the not negated ones, we have to process all the elements of the negated ones and in each time we process an element we start from the beginning of the list and process the whole branch to check if its not negated element is exist. Of course, a lot of time is consumed before tableau reaches neg X, and finds out that X is exist. branch. The third predicate closed / 1 check the lists in the branch if the negative one is shorter than the positive on the predicate checks if neg X is a member of the first list and X is a member of the second list; otherwise it checks if X is in the positive list and neg X in the negative one.

  • 21. Importance Of Common Stock By John Locke When dealing with a common stock within a society, one would assume that taking from the commons would leave other people worse off than they were before. However, this is not the case according to John Locke. In the beginning of Locke's Second Treatise on Civil Government (1690), he acknowledges that all men are equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life liberty or possessions (бї 6). This raises the question of whether taking from the commons harms another person's interest or not. According to Locke, the common stock is everything that God, as King David says (Psalm 115:16), 'has given the earth to the children of men' (бї 25). Locke argues that taking from the commons would not affect the other people in society negatively, but it would instead enhance the value of the commons themselves. Locke utilizes the abundancy of the commons and the theory that applying one's labor to an object taken from the commons raises the value of the common stock. The First Objection to the Thesis Locke's first argument is that the commons are so abundant that there is no need to worry about depleting resources. While discussing appropriation in the commons, Locke infers that no man's labour could subdue or appropriate all, nor could his enjoyment consume more than a small part (бї 36). One man alone could not subdue all the objects in the commons, but what does this mean when everyone is appropriating? This raises an issue as resources in a society are never ...

  • 28. Persuasive Speech I'm Henry Jefferson and this is how school changed my life. It was a warm sunny day in March, everything was normal or so I thought. I got up at 6:00 a.m sharp. I took a shower, then got dressed and ate breakfast. Once I was done with breakfast I did my hair and brushed my teeth. Then, I went to my bus stop and got on the bus. I go to Guava Middle School in Montana. It is a nice school with good teachers. Most of the kids that go to our School are pretty wealthy, so we have nice things. When I walked into the commons my friends told me a rumor Hey Henry did you hear that Champ was going to come to school with a gun and shoot it up? Mark asked. Mark is a really good friend of mine that I have known since Kindergarten. WHAT, we should go tell the office right now. This could be a real danger to our school. I said. Quit being such a wuss. He's just doing it to scare us. Plus, where would he even get a gun at? Jackson stated. I'm not being a wuss. I yelled. I'm just worried that he will shoot us because of what we did to him.

I wasn't nearly as good at singing as my friends were and thought I wasn't good enough. I've never been in a musical, done a solo in a concert, or done Opus. Once I was reassured I was going to be okay and that I wouldn't be judged, I gave in. Once I finally picked a song, which took forever because I didn't want to sing out loud in front of my friends, my mind started to go into overdrive. My mind swirled with questions.

  • 31. Coaching Interviews : Common Threads Coaching Interviews: Common Threads – Different but Yet the Same When I reflect on the beginning of my journey as a Christian, I fondly recall the warm and secure blanket of love and guidance I received from Ms. Mackey, a well–seasoned member of my church congregation. She took me under her wings, and provided me with a safe haven where I could glean from her wisdom, experience and become motivated to serve. Eventually, I was mature enough to fly away; and, fly away I did! This was one of the best experiences of my life. Recently, I had an opportunity to use interviews to seek out the wisdom and experiences of well–seasoned coaches and, as stated in Proverbs 3 (ESV). Strangely enough, this experience culminated in a warmth and satisfaction that was congruent with my experiences with Ms. Mackey. It left me with a new sense of determination and confidence to develop my own coaching style, and more motivated to serve. Before I discuss the common thread I discovered during the interviews, I would like to present the interviewees, their background: Dwight Conley, a New York University certified coach also has a degree in Psychology.

A common thread that is observed within East Asian religions is that there is an ideal or higher path that one can follow to attain their spiritual goals within their lifetime. The three popular religions in China, which are Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism greatly emphasized these ideal paths since direct effect of following these paths would bring harmony and structure to the society. Confucianism, a highly philosophical notion centered around the harmony in the society through the utilization of morals and knowledge, introduced the Gentleman. The anti–Confucian reaction known as Taoism, which places an strong emphasizes understanding the Elemental nature of the way through passive nature and mystical communism with the dao introduced the Sage. The third religion, Buddhism, particularly, the Mahayana sect introduced the Bodhivisattia pathway, which highlights the importance of generosity and merit. Since these Taoism was built up the reaction of the Confucian religion and Buddhism in reaction to both Confucianism and Taoism, there are many differences in terms of prioritization either socially or spiritually, acquisition in the type and amount of knowledge and the proper training ground in achieving the final, ideal state.

There could be loss of cortical integrity too. к≥Ismail Akkas The histological features of GOC strongly suggest an origin from the remains of dental lamina. The microscopic features are a cystic cavity lined with non–keratinized, stratified, squamous epithelium, localized plaque–like thickenings of the epithelium, variable numbers of mucous–secreting cells in the surface layer of the epithelium, a tendency to subepithelial fibrous tissue formation, multiple cysts and the absence of inflammation. The superficial layer of the epithelium consists of eosinophilic cuboidal cells (which are sometimes vacuolated) that makes the surface irregular Hц╘cio Henrique.

  • 34. Scheduling In Ant Colony 3.3 Scheduling in Ant Colony CPU scheduling is the basis of multiprogrammed operating systems. By switching the CPU among processes, the operating system can make the computer more productive. In a single–processor system, only one process can run at a time; any others must wait until the CPU is free and can be rescheduled. The objective of multiprogramming is to have some process running at all times, to maximize CPU utilization. The idea is relatively simple. A process is executed until it must wait, typically for the completion of some I/O request. In a simple computer system, the CPU then just sits idle. All this waiting time is wasted; no useful work is accomplished. With multiprogramming, we try to use this time productively. Several processes are kept in memory at one time. When one process has to wait, the operating system takes the CPU away from that process and gives the CPU to another process. This pattern continues. Every time one process has to wait, another process can take over use of the CPU. Scheduling of this kind is a fundamental operating– system function [18]. Scheduling problems play a central role in ACO research, and many different types of scheduling problems have been attacked with ACO algorithms (see table 2 [1]) The performance, however, varies across problems.

  • 35. The Operating System Linux 3. Linux 3.1 Introduction: The operating system Linux is an open source version of UNIX [6]. In 1992 [8] Linus Torvalds, who was a computer science student –at the University of Helsinki– [6], was the one who started this operating system. Linux is used on variety of hardware (e.g. on workstations, mid–and high–end servers and on gadgets), which makes it unique [6]. Linux keeps maintaining its position in the market due to the hard work of both employees and volunteers [6]. Previously, UNIX systems used batch jobs, which run a process until it is finished and then the next process will run [8]. What UNIX used is known as non–preemptive scheduling [8]. After years, preemptive scheduling was used to run processes in parallel by switching between them [8]. 3.2 Scheduling Technique: Linux scheduler is based on Time–Sharing Scheduling technique [7], which means It can effectively schedule tasks that have strict timing requirements. The CPU is divided into small sections, which allows many process to run simultaneously [7]. Time–sharing depends on timer interrupts [7]. 3.2 Scheduling Priorities: The priority ranges differ for real– time tasks and normal tasks in Linux scheduler [1]. In real–time tasks: priorities vary from 0 to 99. In normal tasks: processes' priorities range from 100 to 139. Processes who have higher priorities are numerically lower than others [1].

This would introduce inefficiency into the process and most likely impact receipt of future orders. v) We need to consider business strategy: will the process capacity be higher if Kristen offers only non–customized cookies of one type? What are the advantages and disadvantages of this alternative strategy compared to what Kristen now plans? The process capacity will not change in the short term if Kristen offers only non–customized cookies. The case study makes it clear that the process that Kristen follows requires specific amounts of time to be spent at each step. However, in the long term, Kristen's capacity will increase as she becomes more adept at making the one type of cookie she has elected to make. This will reduce the time required at some of the process steps (but not necessarily all) and ultimately increase the output capacity her and her roommate are able to achieve. Pros of non–customized cookies: Time spent shopping will be reduced, as will overall variability in price of ingredients. Kristen and her roommate will become more efficient due to standardization They will become much better at making one type of cookie rather than many; total flow time will

First Nations were offered little or no choice since they were weakened by poverty as a result from whiskey traders, epidemics which almost wiped them off their country, and the shortage of food as buffalo herds almost became extinct in the 1800. As a result of the issues faced by First Nations, in 1876 the government of Canada decided to implement a law known as the Indian act. The Indian Act categorized First Nations into status and non–status Indians. Status Indians are descendants of First Nations who signed the treaties, non– status Indians are descendants of First Nations who did not sign treaties. The Indian Act empowered the Canadian government in controlling the lives of First Nations. First Nations no longer had the freedom to be who they were, and they could not live wherever they wanted. For instance, if a status Indian woman marries a non–status Indian man, she would stripped off the government rights toward Indians and she would not be recognized as an Indian by the crown. In exchange of their land, First Nations received reserved land, and a payment from the government, hunting, fishing, as well as mining rights.

Almost all programs require some sort of input and produces output. This involves the use of I/O operations. The operating system hides the low level hardware communication for I/O operations from the user. User only specifies device and the operation to perform, and only see that I/O has been performed (i.e. choosing one of the printer in office for printing service). For security and efficiency, user level programs cannot control I/O operations. Therefore, the operating system must facilitate these services. System view: From a system point of view operating system should allocate resources (use system hardware) in a fair and efficient manner. This includes algorithms for CPUs scheduling and avoiding deadlocks etc. Following are two services for system hardware. a) Resource Allocation: Modern computers are capable of running multiple programs and can be used by multiple users at the same time.

Creating a process requires allocating a process control block (PCB), a rather large data structure. The PCB includes a memory map, list of open files, and environment variables. Allocating and managing the memory map is typically the most time–consuming activity. Creating either a user or kernel thread involves allocating a small data structure to hold a register set, stack, and priority. Busy waiting is a technique in which a process repeatedly checks to see if a condition is true without getting the processor time. While a process is in its critical section, any other process that tries to enter its critical section must loop continuously to get the critical section. This will make the process eat CPU (usually). That is just busy for waiting the processor time. Busy waiting cannot be avoided altogether.
