Banker’s algorithm for resource allocation deals with
- A.
Dead look preventation
- B.
Dead look avoidance
- C.
Dead look recovery
- D.
Mutual exclusion
Correct Answer
B. Dead look avoidanceExplanation
The Banker's algorithm for resource allocation deals with dead lock avoidance. Dead lock is a situation where two or more processes are unable to proceed because each is waiting for resources held by the other. The Banker's algorithm ensures that resources are allocated in a way that prevents deadlocks from occurring. It does this by considering the current allocation, maximum needs, and available resources to determine if a request for resources can be granted without leading to a deadlock.Rate this question:

Among directory entry-node and the file contents, Which will be changed when a file Is updated ?
- A.
Only directory entry and file contents
- B.
Only inode and file contents
- C.
Both (1) and (2)
- D.
Only directory entry
Correct Answer
B. Only inode and file contentsExplanation
When a file is updated, both the inode (index node) and the file contents will be changed. The inode is a data structure that stores important metadata about the file, such as its size, permissions, timestamps, and the location of its data blocks. Updating the file will result in changes to the inode to reflect the new information. Additionally, the actual content of the file will be modified to reflect the updates made to its data. Therefore, both the inode and file contents will be affected by the update.Rate this question:

A generalizations of the Boyce Codd Normal Form to relation schemes which includes the mulltivated dependencies is called –
- A.
Second Normal Form
- B.
Third Normal Form
- C.
Fourth Normal Form
- D.
Fifth Normal Form
Correct Answer
C. Fourth Normal FormExplanation
The Boyce Codd Normal Form (BCNF) is a normal form in database normalization that eliminates redundancy and dependency issues. However, BCNF does not handle all types of dependencies, such as multivalued dependencies. The Fourth Normal Form (4NF) is an extension of BCNF that addresses these multivalued dependencies. It further eliminates redundancy by allowing the decomposition of relations into smaller ones, where each relation contains a single-valued attribute. Therefore, the correct answer is Fourth Normal Form.Rate this question:

Lexical Analyzer transforms an input streams in to –
- A.
Regular expression
- B.
Sequence of tokens
- C.
Binary
- D.
Symbols
Correct Answer
B. Sequence of tokensExplanation
The correct answer is "Sequence of tokens" because a lexical analyzer is responsible for breaking down an input stream into smaller units called tokens. These tokens represent the different elements of the input, such as keywords, identifiers, operators, and literals. By transforming the input stream into a sequence of tokens, the lexical analyzer enables further processing and analysis of the input in subsequent stages of a compiler or interpreter.Rate this question:

If we traverse s binary search tree, in which manner that we get in ascending manner
- A.
InOrder
- B.
Preorder
- C.
PostOrder
- D.
None
Correct Answer
A. InOrderExplanation
InOrder traversal of a binary search tree visits the nodes in ascending order. This means that when we traverse the tree in InOrder manner, we first visit the left subtree, then the root node, and finally the right subtree. Since a binary search tree follows the property that the left child of a node is always smaller than the node and the right child is always greater, traversing in InOrder allows us to visit the nodes in ascending order. Therefore, InOrder is the correct answer for getting the nodes in ascending manner.Rate this question:
