on about software. Lately, with all of the concerns about copyright infringement, friends have started to ask you categories of application software and what each kind permits.You tell your friends that all of the following are true EXCEPT:a) Customers using freeware can personalize the software to meet their needs.b) Anyone can copy or distribute public-domain software to others at no cost.c) Some shareware programs become useless if no payment is sent after the trial period ends.d) A copyright gives creators of original work exclusive rights to duplicate, publish, and sell their materials.

Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

Regarding the information given in the question, we are asked to evaluate the options given which i believe have answers as follows;

B is true. Public-domain means that there are no individuals who hold a copyright over the subject which enables people to copy and distribute, the software in this case, freely.

C is true. Shareware is a term that is used for applications which have a certain trial period for users to decide whether the application meets their needs and demands and then they have to pay the required amount to keep using the software to its full potential. Most often it is the case that if the user does not agree to a payment, the features they are allowed to use are very limited and render the software almost useless until the payment is completed.

D is true. "Copyright" is by definition is approved by the authorities and gives its creater the right to use, sell and change the creative product as they please. It works the same way for software products as well so the statement in option D is true.

A is wrong. Although they are freeware, this softwares still may have copyrights and even if they do not, they are very basic or even incomplete programs to satisfy the minimal needs of its users.

I hope this answer helps.

onsider a file system on a disk that has both logical and physical block sizes of 512 bytes. assume that the information about e
anygoal [31]

For three disk allocation strategies (contiguous, linked, and indexed),

in this case, the  physical blocks must be read from the disk are 1,4 and 2 respectively.

In the disk, every block has a sequential number. The majority of disks today do logical I/O in hardware. Physical I/O is seldom ever required of operating systems today.

File access uses virtual I/O. Similar to disk logical I/O is disk virtual I/O. The distinction is that with virtual I/O, as opposed to physical I/O, the blocks that make up a file are

You could want to transfer from virtual block 10 to virtual block 4 in a contiguous allocation. Since the file is contiguous and you are at logical block 10 + Z, block four can be accessed by reading logical block 4 + Z. Without any intermediaries, that can be done directly.

Each block in the linked structure has 511 bytes of data and one byte that serves as an offset to the following block.

Read the first block, determine the offset to the second block, read the second block, determine the offset to the fourth block, and then read the fourth block in order to gain access to the fourth block.

If blocks are numbered from 1 to 10, then then is the "4" correct. The remainder of the solutions, however, make the assumption that block numbering begins at 0, using division to obtain offsets.

Assume there is a contiguous index for the indexed way of allocating files. Once more, it is assumed that each offset in the index is one byte in size.

Let's say that Z serves as the index's origin. Then, the byte at block Z + 3 DIV 512 and the offset at 3 MOD 512 (3 = 4 - 1) make up the entry for block 4 (numbered 1 to 4).

You must read the index and the data block in order to locate the block (2 reads).
