The procedure is known as<u> context switching</u>.

In the field of computers, context switching can be described as a procedure in which a process is stored so that it can be executed at a later point. Such a procedure allows multitasking operations easier. A simple CPU can be utilized for multiple processes.

After a task is done, it can be swapped out of the CPU and can be restored later. By using context switching, more space can be provided on a CPU as freeing from one process will make space for the other.

When switching a process, the status of the older running process is saved on the CPU as registers.

Context switch makes it feasible to share one CPU for multiple procedures hence reducing the concerns that arise from using additional processors.

What is the f(n) runtime of the following pseudocode: sum-0 for A = N/2 downto 1 for B-1 t increment sum by B Explain: exactly w
Romashka [77]

The diagram part of the question is incomplete but the mathematical part has been solved below for you . However when the diagram will be attached it will be answered too.

Answer:

Following is the solution for the Time complexity/ Run Time:

Given that:

A = N/2 to 1

B = 1 to 4N

By summation:

Time Complexity = Lower bound of A * Upper Bound of B

Time Complexity = (N/2) * (4N)

By simplifying:

Time Complexity = N * 2N

Time Complexity = 2N^2

Hence the runtime f(n) for given pseudocode will be 2N^2

i hope it will help you!
