OBJECTIVES<\/span><\/p>\n

Understand the basics of a computer architecture.
\u2022 Identify communications approaches between CPU, memory, and other peripheral devices.
\u2022 Understand how computers execute programs.<\/span><\/p>\n

ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS<\/span><\/p>\n

Answer the following questions the best you can. Cite the literature that you used to find the answer to the question (if it is necessary).<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    List four activities of a typical operating system.<\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    Summarize the distinction between batch processing and interactive processing.<\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Suppose three items, R, S, and T, are placed in a queue in that order. Then one item is removed from the queue before a fourth item, X, is placed in the queue. Then one item is removed from the queue, the items Y and Z are placed in the queue, and then the queue is emptied by removing one item at a time. List all the items in the order in which they were removed.<\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    Suppose a computer contained 512MB (MiB) of main memory, and an operating system needed to create a virtual memory of twice that size using pages of 2KB (KiB). How many pages would be required?<\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  5. \n

    A process is said to be I\/O-bound if it requires a lot of I\/O operations, whereas a process that consists of mostly computations within the CPU\/memory system is said to be compute-bound. If both a compute-bound process and an I\/O-bound process are waiting for a time slice, which should be given priority? Why?<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      6. Identify three ways in which a process could challenge the security of a computer system if not prevented from doing so by the operating system.<\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span><\/p>\n

      7. Suppose a password consisted of a string of nine characters from the English alphabet (twenty-six characters). If each possible password could be tested in a millisecond, how long would it take to test all possible passwords?<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
