Assume that the computer system has 512 Mbytes of available memory. What is the memory utilization with multiprogramming if Process A requires 256 Mbytes, Process B requires 128 Mbytes and Process C requires 64 Mbytes of memory. Note that: all processes are submitted for execution at the same time.

Question

Assume there are three processes A, B and C. All processes are submitted for execution at the same time. The process A executes for 2 milliseconds and then does I/O for 3 milliseconds and then executes for 3 milliseconds more. The process B executes for 4 milliseconds and then does I/O for 7 milliseconds. The process C executes for 2 millisecond and then does I/O for 4 milliseconds. Assume no contention for the resources and the order of execution (priority) is A, B and C.
