Ans: FIFO
13. The only state transition that is initiated by the user process itself is -
Ans: Block

16. Dijkstra’s banking algorithm in an operating system solves the problem of -
Ans: Deadlock Avoidance17. In a paged memory system, if the page size is increased, then the internal fragmentation generally -
Ans: Becomes more
18. An operating system contains 3 user processes each requiring 2 units of resources R. The minimum number of units of R such that no deadlock
will ever occur is -
Ans: 4
19. Critical region is -
Ans: A set of instructions that access common shared resources which exclude one another in time
20. Kernel is -
Ans: The set of primitive functions upon which the rest of operating system functions are built up
21. Necessary conditions for deadlock are -
Ans: Non-preemption and circular wait, Mutual exclusion and partial allocation
22. In a time sharing operating system, when the time slot given to a process is completed, the process goes from the RUNNING state to the -
Ans: READY state
23. Supervisor call -
Ans: Are privileged calls that are used to perform resource management functions, which are controlled by the operating system

Ans: READY State
