5 Mhz is the Maximum clock frequency in 8086.

C++ is not an Operating System.

An Operating System is a collection of system programs that manages all the other programs application programs in a computer as well as the allocation and use of hardware resources such as the CPU, Memory and the Hard Disk Drive.

It acts as an interface between the hardware and the user level program.

It controls and facilitates the overall operation of a computer.

UNIX : UNIX is a popular multi-user, multitasking operating system (OS) developed at Bell Labs.

Windows NT : Windows NT is a family of operating systems produced by Microsoft, the first version of which was released in July 1993.

DOS : DOS is Disk Operating System. The term DOS can refer to any operating system.

C++ : C++ is a programming language and computing platform.

Hence, C++ is not an Operating System.

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.

Impact Analysis is used in software testing to define all the risks associated with any kind of changes in a product being tested.

Impact Analysis is nothing but analyzing the impact of changes in the deployed product or application. It gives the information about the areas of the system that may be affected due to the change in the particular section or features of the application.

Why Impact Analysis is done :

1. It is done to understand the possible outcome of implementing the change. Inducing too much functionality into a product can reduce the overall performance of the product.

2. To identify all the files, documents and models that might have to be modified if team decides to implement the change in product

3. To estimate the effort needed behind implementing the change

4. To identify the task required to implement the change

5. It will list the dependencies on a specific element

The impact is analyzed on Requirements, Design & Architecture, impact on Test and impact on schedule.

Time taken for switching from one process to other is pure over head. Because the system does no useful work while switching. So one of the solutions is to go for threading when ever possible.

The address resolution protocol (ARP) is used to associate the 32 bit IP address with the 48 bit physical address, used by a host or a router to find the physical address of another host on its network by sending a ARP query packet that includes the IP address of the receiver.

The reverse address resolution protocol (RARP) allows a host to discover its Internet address when it knows only its physical address
