The author feels that the interrupt feature which is available in most modern computers is a potent source of programming pitfalls and errors, and that it therefore may heavily contribute to the ...

A simple stochastic model is described which offers a base for understanding the relationship between the number of programs permitted to share memory (the degree of multiprogramming), drum traffic ...

Abstract: This paper investigates some of the effects of varying the number of central processing units (CPU's) available to a multiprogramming system both when parallel processing of a single task ...

ABSTRACT: It is well known, in queueing theory, that the system performance is greatly influenced by scheduling policy. No universal optimum scheduling strategy exists in systems where individual ...

While these concepts may appear to be synonymous at first look, they typically refer to separate strategies that are critical in optimizing system efficiency and utilization of resources. This article ...

C program that uses structures, file handling, merge sort and linked lists to manage student records and hash tables (arrays of pointers to struct hash) to organize students by branch and slot for ...

ABSTRACT: This paper presents the development of a microkernel with a device driver controller for embedded systems. The implementation was done in C language aiming low cost microcontrollers. The ...
