Q34 nat
A keyboard connected to a computer is used at a rate of 1 keystroke per second. The computer system polls the keyboard every 10 ms (milli seconds) to check for a keystroke and consumes 100 ΞΌs (micro seconds) for each poll. If it is determined after polling that a key has been pressed, the system consumes an additional 200 ΞΌs to process the keystroke. Let T 1 denote the fraction of a second spent in polling and processing a keystroke. In an alternative implementation, the system uses interrupts instead of polling. An interrupt is raised for every keystroke. It takes a total of 1 ms for servicing an interrupt and processing a keystroke. Let T 2 denote the fraction of a second spent in servicing the interrupt and processing a keystroke. The ratio 1 is T. (Rounded off to one decimal place) T 2

Q46 mcq
Let A be a priority queue for maintaining a set of elements. Suppose A is implemented using a max-heap data structure. The operation Extract-Max(A) extracts and deletes the maximum element from A.

When A contains n elements, which one of the following statements about the worst case running time of these two operations is TRUE?

Suppose in a web browser, you click on the www.gate-2023.in URL. The browser cache is empty. The IP address for this URL is not cached in your local host, so a DNS lookup is triggered (by the local DNS server deployed on your local host) over the 3-tier DNS hierarchy in an iterative mode. No resource records are cached anywhere across all DNS servers. Let RTT denote the round trip time between your local host and DNS servers in the DNS hierarchy. The round trip time between the local host and the web server hosting www.gate-2023.in is also equal to RTT. The HTML file associated with the URL is small enough to have negligible transmission time and negligible rendering time by your web browser, which references 10 equally small objects on the same web server. Which of the following statements is/are CORRECT about the minimum elapsed time between clicking on the URL and your browser fully rendering it?
a.
7 RTTs, in case of non-persistent HTTP with 5 parallel TCP connections.
b.
5 RTTs, in case of persistent HTTP with pipelining.
c.
9 RTTs, in case of non-persistent HTTP with 5 parallel TCP connections.

Consider the syntax directed translation given by the following grammar and se- mantic rules. Here N, I, F and B are non-terminals. N is the starting non-terminal, and #, 0 and 1 are lexical tokens corresponding to input letters β€œ#”, β€œ0” and β€œ1”, respectively. X.val denotes the synthesized attribute (a numeric value) associated with a non-terminal X. I 1 and F 1 denote occurrences of I and F on the right hand side of a production, respectively. For the tokens 0 and 1, 0.val = 0 and 1.val = 1. N $\to$ I # F N.val = I.val + F.val I $\to$ I 1 B I.val = (2 I 1.val) + B.val I $\to$ B I.val = B.val F $\to$ B F 1 F.val = (B.val + F 1.val)

Consider a database of fixed-length records, stored as an ordered file. The database has 25,000 records, with each record being 100 bytes, of which the primary key occupies 15 bytes. The data file is block-aligned in that each data record is fully contained within a block. The database is indexed by a primary index file, which is also stored as a block-aligned ordered file. The figure below depicts this indexing scheme. Data File Primary Key Other Fields (15 Bytes) (85 Bytes) Index File Block Anchor Block Primary Key Pointer Suppose the block size of the file system is 1024 bytes, and a pointer to a block occupies 5 bytes. The system uses binary search on the index file to search for a record with a given key. You may assume that a binary search on an index file of b blocks takes log b block accesses in the worst case. 2 Given a key, the number of block accesses required to identify the block in the data file that may contain a record with the key, in the worst case, is.
