What are the states of a process?
Measurements of a certain system have shown that the
average process runs for a time T before blocking
on I/O. A process switch requires a time S, which is
effectively wasted (overhead). The CPU’s efficiency is
the fraction of its time its spends executing user
programs, i.e., executing user processes. For round robin
scheduling with quantum Q, give a formula for the CPU
efficiency for each of the following:
(a) Q = ∞
(b) Q > S + T
(c) S Explain booting the system and bootstrap program in operating system. What are the 3 types of operating systems? What is the important aspect of a real-time system?
