Technical Questions

Testing is a process used for revealing defects in s/w and for establishing that the s/w has attained a specific degree of quality.

The s/w testing group’s main objective is to ensure that the s/w is doing what it is supposed to do as well as the s/w is not doing what it is not supposed to do. With this objective, it is clear that it is necessary to have a separate group for testing the s/w other than the group which developed it.

Also, bugs in the s/w can cause severe monetary as well as other loss to the organization. So it is important to allocate some budget for the testing group.

It is the transfer of sufficient amount of the state of process from one machine to the target machine.

In microprocessor more op-codes, few bit handling instrucitons. But in Microcontroller. fewer op-codes, more bit handling Instruction, and also it is defined as a device that includes micro processor, memory, & input / output signal lines on a single chip.

the basic architectual difference is that microcontroller has an programmable memory while it is not the case with mivroprocessors.

include<stdio.h>
int main(){

  int s,i,j,temp,a[20];

  printf("Enter total elements: ");
  scanf("%d",&s);

  printf("Enter %d elements: ",s);
  for(i=0;i<s;i++)
      scanf("%d",&a[i]);

  for(i=0;i<s;i++){
      for(j=i+1;j<s;j++){
           if(a[i]>a[j]){
               temp=a[i];
              a[i]=a[j];
              a[j]=temp;
           }
      }
  }

  printf("After sorting is: ");
  for(i=0;i<s;i++)
      printf(" %d",a[i]);

  return 0;
}

Output:
Enter total elements: 5
Enter 5 elements: 4 5 0 21 7
The array after sorting is:  0 4 5 7 21

INPLEMENTATION:

For SUM, The two inputs A and B are given to XOR gate.

For Carry, The two inputs A and B are given to AND gate.

Hardware device that maps virtual to physical address. In MMU scheme, the value in the relocation register is added to every address generated by a user process at the time it is sent to memory.

->The user program deals with logical addresses; it never sees the real physical addresses

An interrupt that can be turned off by the programmer is known as Maskable interrupt.
