Q:

A loan of $15 000 is taken out. If the interest rate on the loan is 7%, how much interest is due and what is the amount repaid if the loan is due in seven months

A) 15612.50 B) 14612.50
C) 13612.50 D) 17612.50
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 15612.50

Explanation:

We have P = 15 000, r = 0.07 and since the actual date the loan was taken out
is not given, we use t =7/12

I = Prt=$15 000* 0.07* 7/12 = $612.50

Amount repaid = Future or accumulated value,

S = P + I = $15 000 + $612.50 = $15 612.50

Q:

What are demand-paging and pre-paging?

Answer

With demand paging, a page is brought into memory only when a location on that page is actually referenced during execution. With pre-paging, pages other than the one demanded by a page fault are brought in. The selection of such pages is done based on common access patterns, especially for secondary memory devices.

Q:

In loading programs into memory, what is the difference between load-time dynamic linking and run-time dynamic linking?

Answer

For load-time dynamic linking: Load module to be loaded is read into memory. Any reference to a target external module causes that module to be loaded and the references are updated to a relative address from the start base address of the application module.


With run-time dynamic loading: Some of the linking is postponed until actual reference during execution. Then the correct module is loaded and linked.

Q:

In the context of memory management, what are placement and replacement algorithms?

Answer

Placement algorithms determine where in available real-memory to load a program. Common methods are first-fit, next-fit, best-fit. Replacement algorithms are used when memory is full, and one process (or part of a process) needs to be swapped out to accommodate a new program. The replacement algorithm determines which are the partitions to be swapped out.
