Understanding Deadlock, Virtual Memory, and Disk Management

Deadlock Characterization

  • Mutual Exclusion: Only one process at a time can use a resource.
  • Hold and Wait: A process holding at least one resource is waiting to acquire additional resources held by other processes.
  • No Preemption: A resource can be released only voluntarily by the process holding it, after that process has completed its task.
  • Circular Wait: There exists a set {P0, P1, …, Pn} of waiting processes such that P0 is waiting for a resource that is held by P1, P1 is waiting for a resource

Understanding Network Computing Environments and Protocols

Network Computing Environment

Communication devices connect terminals, printers, and sometimes other computers. These devices often use character-type communication, where information is transferred as individual characters. Common examples include asynchronous serial lines (RS-232 and RS-422), synchronous serial lines (IBM bisynchronous), and parallel lines (used in online printers).

Communication Networks

Communication networks enable computer processes on different computers to communicate with

MIPS Architecture and Datapath: Key Concepts

EC 1:

The MIPS add, addi, and sub instructions may result in an exception. True

A decoder is a logic block that has an n-bit input and 2n outputs where all outputs are asserted for each input combination. False

A multiplexor is also called a selector, where its output is one of the inputs that is selected by a control. True

A datapath element that has storage is called a State element. A register is a State element. An ALU is a Combinational element.

Asserted: The signal is logically high or true. True
