True / False Questions:
1. T / F – An operating system controls the execution of applications and acts as an interface between applications and the computer hardware.
2. T / F – The operating system maintains information that can be used for billing purposes on multi-user systems.
3. T / F – The principal responsibility of the operating system is to control the execution of processes.
4. T / F – When one process spawns another, the spawning process is referred to as the child process and the spawned process is referred to as the parent process.
5. T / F – The less-privileged processor execution mode is often referred to as kernel mode.
6. T / F – One kind of system interrupt, the trap, relates to an error or exception condition in the currently running process.
7. T / F – The Process Image refers to the binary form of the program code.
8. T / F – A typical UNIX system employs two Running states, to indicate whether the process is executing in user mode or kernel mode.
9. T / F – The short-term scheduler may limit the degree of multiprogramming to provide satisfactory service to the current set of processes.
10. T / F – The long-term scheduler is invoked whenever an event occurs that may lead to the suspension or preemption of the currently running process.
11. T / F – In a multiprogramming system, main memory is divided into multiple sections: one for the operating system (resident monitor, kernel) and one for the set of processes currently being executed.
12. T / F – In the Dynamic Partitioning technique of
memory management, compaction refers to shifting the processes into a contiguous block, resulting in all the free memory aggregated into in a single block. 13. T / F – In a memory system employing paging, the chunks of a process (called frames) can be assigned to available chunks of memory (called pages).
14. T / F – A memory system employing segmentation consists of a number of user program segments that must be of the same length and have a maximum segment length.
15. T / F – The condition known as thrashing occurs when the majority of the processes in main memory require repetitive blocking on a single shared I/O device in the system.
16. T / F – A Page Fault occurs when the desired page table entry is not found in the Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB).
17. T / F – Double buffering refers to the concept of using two buffers to alternatively fill and empty in order to facilitate the buffering of an I/O request. 18. T / F – A pile file refers to the least complicated form of file organization, where data are collected in sorted order and each record consists of one burst of data.
19. T / F – In the general indexed file structure, there are no key fields and variable-length records are allowed.
20. T / F – Typically, an interactive user or a process has associated with it a current directory, often referred to as the working directory.
21. T / F – In a uniprocessor machine, concurrent processes cannot be overlapped; they can only be interleaved.
22. T / F – In indirect addressing, as applied to message passing, messages are sent to a temporary shared data structure typically known as a mailbox.
23. T / F – Deadlock can be defined as the periodic blocking of a set of processes that either compete for system resources or communicate with each other.
24. T / F – A reusable resource is one that can be safely used by only one process at a time and is not depleted by that use.
