BSNL TTA exam questions for 2009


Q. Main memory is collection of –

(a)Instructions (b) Data

(c) Instructions and data (d) Address

Ans: (c)

**Q. Operating system used to complete the task in specified time constraint?

(a) Distributed OS

(b) Multi programming OS

(c) Real-time OS

(d) Time-Sharing OS.

Ans-(c)

Q. The methods of reading the instructions from main memory is called:-

(a) Memory reading (b) data reading

(c) Relative reading (d) instructions fetching.

Ans: (d)

Q. The scheduling queue which keeps all those process those are ready to execute?

(a) Suspended Queue

(b) Device Queue

(c) Ready Queue

(d) Job Queue

Ans: - (c)

***Q. The scheduling queue which keeps all the suspended process

(a) Suspended Queue

(b) Device Queue

(c) Ready Queue

(d) Job Queue

Ans: - (a)

Q. Memory Location or address from which the data is to be retrieve is specified by the register-

(a) MAR (b) MDR

(c) SP (d) PC

Ans- (a) Memory Address register (MAR)

**Q. Memory Location or address where retrieved data is stored specified by the register-

(a) MAR (b) MDR

(c) SP (d) PC

Ans: - (b) Memory Data Register (MDR).


Q. Memory Address which gives the address of next instruction to be executed.

(a) MAR (b) MDR

(c) SP (d) PC


Ans: - (d)

Q. Which register can be implicitly used as an operand---?

(a) MBR (b) MDR

(c) Accumulator (d) any general purpose registers

Ans- (c) Accumulator


Q. Turnaround time is defined as:

(a) Waiting time.

(b) Suspended time.

(c) total time spent by process inside a system.

(d) Waiting time + suspended time

Ans: - (c).

Q. which one can improve the performance of scheduling algorithm

(a) Time in waiting suspended Queue

(b) Time in waiting ready Queue.

(c) Time spent by a process in execution.

(d) Response time

Ans: - (b)

***Solution:- Turnaround time(TAT) = Time in waiting suspended Queue + Time in waiting ready Queue + Time spent by a process in execution.

Here Time spent by a process in execution depends on speed of processor so it does not affect the scheduling algorithm and time in waiting suspended Queue also does not affect TAT. So waiting in ready queue can only improve the performance of scheduling algorithm.
