Serjik [45]2 years ago

Answer:

An operating system is something that controls the functions of an application software(app). The app does specific tasks for the end-user; the end user is someone who is, or is supposed to, use a product. The app uses API to request services from the operating system. If the user is interacting direct with software, it is an application software.

T F The exit function can only be called from main .
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

The exit function is used to terminate or halt the process.

Syntax-

            void exit(int status)  

Exit function (exit()) can be used in any function not only main() and it will terminate your whole process.

<u></u>

<u>Example-</u> C Program

#include<stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>  

//  function declaration

float exitexample ( float x );                                

// Driver program

int main( )                

{

 float a, b ;

 printf ( "\nEnter some number for finding square \n");

  scanf ( "%f", &a ) ;

 // function call

 b = exitexample ( a ) ;                      

 printf ( "\nSquare of the given number %f is %f",a,b );  

/*This will not printed as exit function is in exitexample() function*/

}

float exitexample ( float x )   // function definition  

{

 exit(0);    //exit function

   float p ;

  p = x * x ;

return ( p ) ;

}

If two computers have the same IP there will be conflict which lead to failure in sending and receiving data within the network. It can be resolved by checking the IP addresses of each computer and correcting it.</span>

Computer A has an overall CPI of 1.3 and can be run at a clock rate of 600 MHz. Computer B has a CPI of 2.5 and can be run at a
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

CPI means Clock cycle per Instruction

given Clock rate 600 MHz then clock time is Cー 1.67nSec clockrate 600M

Execution time is given by following Formula.

Execution Time(CPU time) = CPI*Instruction Count * clock time = \frac{CPI*Instruction Count}{ClockRate}

a)

for system A CPU time is 1.3 * 100, 000 600 106

= 216.67 micro sec.

b)

for system B CPU time is =\frac{2.5*100,000}{750*10^6}

= 333.33 micro sec

c) Since the system B is slower than system A, So the system A executes the given program in less time

Hence take CPU execution time of system B as CPU time of System A.

therefore

216.67 micro = =\frac{2.5*Instruction}{750*10^6}

Instructions = 216.67*750/2.5

= 65001

hence 65001 instruction are needed for executing program By system B. to complete the program as fast as system A
