CHAPTER 2 OPERATING SYSTEM

OVERVIEW

Review Questions

2.1 Convenience: An operating system makes a computer more convenient

to use. Efficiency: An operating system allows the computer system resources to be used in an efficient manner. Ability to evolve: An

operating system should be constructed in such a way as to permit the effective development, testing, and introduction of new system functions without interfering with service.

2.5 The execution context, or process state, is the internal data by which the

operating system is able to supervise and control the process. This

internal information is separated from the process, because the operating system has information not permitted to the process. The context includes all of the information that the operating system needs to manage the

process and that the processor needs to execute the process properly. The context includes the contents of the various processor registers, such as the program counter and data registers. It also includes information of use to the operating system, such as the priority of the process and whether the process is waiting for the completion of a particular I/O event.

Problems

2.1 The answers are the same for (a) and (b). Assume that although processor

operations cannot overlap, I/O operations can. 1 Job: TAT = NT Processor utilization = 50% 2 Jobs: TAT = NT Processor utilization = 100% 4 Jobs: TAT = (2N – 1)NT Processor utilization = 100% 2.4 A system call is used by an application program to invoke a function

provided by the operating system. Typically, the system call results in transfer to a system program that runs in kernel mode.
