Question 3 a) b) The system is very popular in representing multi-programming, multi-user.

. The main objective of a multi-user and time-sharing is a good response time. Scheduling: Round Robin (no human time (time slicing)). Program implemented a priority queue up while waiting and declined after the service followed. Memory Management: Resident of the program, time-sharing to provide protection and isolate, control over the partnership necessary to preserve the memory and data exchange program. Usually the time-sharing system, the programs rarely communicate between one times as only for different users. Management of i / o: must be advanced for handling multi-user and devices. Processor to interrupt terminal need not be time critical as the speed is the speed of the terminal and the user terminal and the user is relatively slow. Ensure integrity (integrity) and the system performed well when making relocation and location of the devices. File management: access files simultaneously, there may be attempts to access the file Easily share files, photos, and music on your home network. Manage printers, cameras, and other devices better.

management conflict must provide protection control (protection and access simultaneously)

c)
-

As you know, the operating system will be required at all times when the computer system is running. So the operating system will always be in main memory, thereby reducing the memory space can be used by the program user. Thus an operating system should have a small size to reduce the memory space used. Also usually a large system will tend to have the offense and take a long time to write.

d)
-

Channel Channel - a device that controls the peripherals, which carry out data transfer between peripherals and memory without involving the central processing unit.

Interrupt Interrupt - a signal that moves to the central processor controls a particular location and save the program counter value to the process is interrupted before the interrupt (in memory). So a program that is being carried out while receiving the interrupt will stop for a moment but then resumed.

Question 4 a)
i)

Description of the procedure and the operator input-output devices mentioned before make the assumption that all data is transferred without any buffer. Meaning, each input-output requests cause a physical transfer occurs at a peripheral may be. If a process is performed repeatedly on the same turn, it will always be stopped until the transfer is completed. Figure 6.2 below shows the timing for the concept without the buffer.

b)
i) -

Allows files created and deleted. Allow read and write files. Provide secondary memory space management (outside knowledge of the user).

ii) a) Single Level


-

For systems that use the directory one level there is only one directory only in the system. All the files contained in the file system would be in this directory. So the data structure for storing information about a file can be made easily.

Byte

18

File Name

User Code

Connection

Disk Numbers

b) Two Level
-

For a file system directory that uses two levels directories, the way the directory one level cannot be used. Examples of two-level directory is the Dec System.

DAT 1 File

ROSADI

SHIMA

Main Directory

User Directory

c) Multi Level
For a system using multi-level directory organization, entries for the directory must contain information to determine whether the entry is a file or a directory. An example of multi-level directory is Unix and Multics.
