Quiz on Processor Management

What are the three main components of processor management in a computer system?

• Memory Manager, Traffic Controller, Device Manager

• Job Scheduler, Process Scheduler, Traffic Controller

• Process Manager, Resource Manager, I/O Manager

• Operating System, Hardware, Software

Which scheduler is responsible for deciding which job should be run in a non-multiprogramming environment?

• Process Scheduler

• Device Scheduler

• Job Scheduler

• Traffic Controller

In a multiprogramming system, what is the main responsibility of the Process Scheduler?

• Creating processes from jobs

• Deciding which process within a subset will receive the processor and for how long

• Managing memory resources for jobs

• Handling device I/O for each job

What is the role of the Traffic Controller in processor management?

• To keep track of the status of processes and jobs

• To assign resources to the jobs

• To terminate the processes after completion

• To control I/O operations

Which scheduler is considered a macro-scheduler that selects which jobs enter the system?

• Process Scheduler

• I/O Scheduler

• Job Scheduler

• Traffic Controller

In a non-multiprogramming system, how is process and job scheduling handled?

• They are combined, and only one job is allowed in the system at a time

• They are separated, with the process scheduler handling jobs

• The job scheduler controls I/O operations, and the process scheduler handles CPU allocation

• Both operate independently, scheduling different jobs

Which component is responsible for allocating and deallocating processors to different processes based on their status?

• Job Scheduler

• Process Scheduler

• Memory Manager

• Traffic Controller
