Someone once observed that "the difference between roles and groups is that a user can shift into and out of roles, whereas that user has a group identity (or identities) that are fixed throughout the session."
Consider a system such as a System V-based UNIX system, in which a process can have exactly one group identity. To change groups, users must execute thenewgrpcommand. Do these groups differ from roles? Why or why not?

- What is the difference between a serial schedule and a serializable schedule?arrow_forwardFor the following scenario for a point of sale system, draw the following: • A mail order company that distributes CDs and tapes at discount prices to record club members (tells the purpose of the system). • When an order processing clerk receives an order form, she verifies that the sender is a club member by checking the MEMBER FILE. If the sender is not a member, the clerk returns the order along with a membership application form. • If the customer is a member, the clerk verifies the order item data by checking the ITEM FILE. Then the clerk enters the order data and saves it to the DAILY ORDERS FILE. • At the same time, the clerk also prints an invoice and shipping list for each order, which are forwarded to the ORDER FULFILLMENT DEPARTMENT for processing there. Answer:arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true? (A) There are languages that can be recognized by an NFA which cannot be recognized by a DFA. (B) Languages recognized by NFAs cannot be recognized by DFAs because they can have infinitely many active threads at any given time. (C) If L is a language recognized by an NFA then there is a DFA that can recognize L. (D) Every language is recognized by an NFA because they are subsets of Σ∗.arrow_forward

- A deadlock occurs when a group of processes is stalled because one process is holding a resource and waiting for another process to obtain it. Consider the situation when two trains are approaching each other on the same track and there is only one track: once they are in front of each other, neither train can proceed. In operating systems, a similar scenario happens when two or more processes possess certain resources while waiting on resources owned by other processes (s). In the picture below, Process 1 is holding Resource 1 and waiting for Process 2 to acquire Resource 2, while Process 2 is waiting for Resource 1. Give an example of a realistic deadlock avoidance approach and describe the basic strategy behind it.arrow_forwardn indirect message passing model of IPC, a mailbox can be held in the process address space (or in the kernel). Similarly, in shared-memory model, a shared-memory region resides in the address space of the process. Considering both the facts (that both use process address space), what’s the difference between the indirect message passing and shared memory models?arrow_forwardThe schedulers deserve some attention.

- Consider a server with two clients running independent multi-threaded databases. Client 1 has paid for 75% of the available CPU resources, while Client 2 has paid for 25%.

The 500 employees in the organization are diverse in age, gender, race, nationality, and religious preference. Scenario: You discover pornographic images on a company server, which you are responsible for maintaining. You think that some of the images are of nude children. After a forensics investigation, you cannot trace the origins of images to a specific user in the organization. You discover that dozens of employees, including a co-worker, have viewed the images, but no one has reported the incident. What do you do? Whom do you inform? Do you delete them? Do you block further access? Do you call the police? What are the legal requirements you must take?arrow_forwardassume a system has 6 identical resources and N processes competing for them. each process can request at most 2 resources. what is the maximum value of N for the system to be deadlock free?arrow_forward
