Answer:
For I/O-bound we require voluntary context switches.
For CPU-bound we require non-voluntary context switches.
Explanation:
A voluntary context switches occurs when process has given up control of the CPU because it requires a resource that is currently unavailable(such as blocking for I/O). It happen frequently in normal system operation. Voluntary context switching initiated with a call to the sleep() routine.
A non-voluntary context switches occurs when the CPU has taken away from a process, such as when it's time slice has expired or it has been preempted by a high-priority process. It is forced by direct invocation of the low-level context-switching mechanism embodied in the mi_switch() and setrunnable() routines.
Answer:
3.59 minutes
Explanation:
We solve this question using z score formula
Using Excel
Z-SCORE= (DataPoint-AVERAGE(DataSet))/STDEV(DataSet)
IN EXCEL,
AVERAGE, an excel function that calculates the Average of data set
STDEV.S: calculates the standard deviation while treating the data as a ‘sample’ of a population.
STDEV.P: This function calculates the standard deviation while treating the data as the entire population.
Z score formula = x - μ/σ
x = ?? μ = 2.5 minutes σ = 0.5 minutes
We are asked : If 1.5% of the callers are put on hold for longer than x minutes, what is the value of x?
Hence, Longer than = Greater than =
100 - 1.5%
= 100 - 0.015
= 0.985 ( 98.5%)
Using Excel we calculate = z score for 98.5 percentile
= 2.1701
Z score = x - μ/σ
2.1701 = x - 2.5/0.5
2.1701 × 0.5 = x - 2.5
1.08505 = x - 2.5
x = 1.08505 + 2.5
x = 3.58505
Approximately to 2 decimal places = 3.59 minutes
Therefore, 1.5% of the callers are put on hold for longer than 3.59 minutes.

Answer:
Open source software
Explanation:
Open source software is exactly what you think it is, the code to compile the software and run it is available to the public for use or modification.
