  1. Explain the two types of terminals used with mainframe systems?

 

Answer : Dumb Terminals

 

There are various conflicting definitions of “dumb terminal” but as time goes by, more and more terminals are called dumb. This document mainly covers text terminals which display only text on the screen. It could have been titled “Dumb-Terminal-HOWTO”. But in some magazines articles, any terminal, no matter how smart, including ones which present a full graphical user interface (GUI), are called dumb. If all terminals are “dumb” then there is no point of prefixing the word “dumb” to terminal (except as a sales pitch to

  • Functions should perform only one task.
  • Functions should be as short as possible.
  • Functions should control changes to internal data by restricting access.
  • Each function must have an initial comment. Initial comments in the program should make the algorithm used in the function obvious. The initial comment should explain:
    • What its

The five basic concepts of object

 

 

  1. List the five major activities of an operating system in regard to process management.

 

Answer : Process Management

 

The operating system manages many kinds of activities ranging from user programs to system programs like printer spooler, name servers, file server etc. Each of these activities is encapsulated in a process. A process includes the complete execution context (code, data, PC, registers, OS resources in use etc.).

 

It is important to note that a process is not a program. A process is only ONE instant of a program in execution. There are many processes can be running the same program. The five major activities of an operating system in regard to process management are:
