What is a belief that an event will occur?
something that some people believe that in 2012, the world will end. is that what your trying to ask?
What is the probability of Two events that are equally likely to occur?
Without more information all you can say is that they it is some non-negative number less than or equal to 0.5.
What does dependent probability mean?
Dependent probability is the probability of an event which changes according to the outcome of some other event.
What is the function for the buzzer?
To draw attention to some event.
What is false deadlock?
the coordinator conculde incorrectly that a deadlock exist and kills some process --------------------------- Detecting a non existent deadlock in distributed system has been referred as false deadlock and it may occur due to communication delay.. ---->Ashok Paranjothi
What is the meaning of the term busy waiting What other kinds of waiting are there in an operating system Can busy waiting be avoided altogether Explain your answer?
_ A process is waiting for an event to occur and it does so by executing instructions. _ A process is waiting for an event to occur in some waiting queue (e.g., I/O, semaphore) and it does so without having the CPU assigned to it. _ Busy waiting cannot be avoided altogether.
What is CPU sheduling algorithm?
Basically,this is a need in case of multiprogramming.For optimum utilization of CPU it should be utilised in the meanwhile time when some process is in waiting state for some I/O or waiting for some event to occur. So,for this many programs should be in memory in waiting state so that CPU can be allocated to some other process for optimum utilization of CPU. A schedule(time table in broad sense) which will decide Cpu will be allocated to which process when some previous process is in waiting state. Now this schedule is designed according to some criteria(algorithm) to decide CPU will be allocated to which process. Some Algorithms: 1.First Come First Serve(FCFS) 2.Shortest Job Scheduling(SJS) 3.RoundRobin Scheduling(RRS)
What is indefinite postponement in operating system?
Process waiting for an event that is not available or may be available in some time....
Different states of a process?
In computing, if a processor is running and doing a number of activities, those activities are known as its states. As a processor executes, its state changes. There are number of states like New state i.e. creation of new process, Running state i.e. execution of instructions, Waiting state i.e. its a state where processor is waiting for some activity to occur, Ready state i.e. in this a particular process has acquired the resources and is waiting to be assigned to a processor, Terminated state i.e. the execution of a process has completed.
What is a different way to say a watched pot never boils?
"Time doesn't go quickly when you are bored." More accurately, if you are anxious for some event to occur or some process to complete, continuously monitoring it for progress will do nothing to hasten that progress.
How busy waiting occur?
I copied the answer from other place:while any process is in its critical section , any other process that tries to enter its critical section must loop continously in the entry code.this continue looping is clearly a problem in a real multiprogramming system. where a single CPU is shared among many processes. Busy waiting wastes CPU cycles that could have been used by some process in more productive way. This type of semaphore is also called a spinlock.
What other kinds of waiting are there in an operating system?
Some other kinds of waiting in an operating system include waiting on applications, waiting on the user, and waiting for hardware to communicate. The operating system facilities many different components to work in sync.

What are the Process states?
A process which is Executed by the Process have various States, the State of the Process is also called as the Status of the process, The Status includes whether the Process has Executed or Whether the process is Waiting for Some input and output from the user and whether the Process is Waiting for the CPU to Run the Program after the Completion of the Process.The various States of the Process are as Followings:-1) New State : When a user request for a Service from the System , then the System will first initialize the process or the System will call it an initial Process . So Every new Operation which is Requested to the System is known as the New Born Process.2) Running State : When the Process is Running under the CPU, or When the Program is Executed by the CPU , then this is called as the Running process and when a process is Running then this will also provides us Some Outputs on the Screen.3) Waiting : When a Process is Waiting for Some Input and Output Operations then this is called as the Waiting State. And in this process is not under the Execution instead the Process is Stored out of Memory and when the user will provide the input then this will Again be on ready State.4) Ready State : When the Process is Ready to Execute but he is waiting for the CPU to Execute then this is called as the Ready State. After the Completion of the Input and outputs the Process will be on Ready State means the Process will Wait for the Processor to Execute.5) Terminated State : After the Completion of the Process , the Process will be Automatically terminated by the CPU . So this is also called as the Terminated State of the Process. After Executing the Whole Process the Processor will Also deallocate the Memory which is allocated to the Process. So this is called as the Terminated Process.
What is the meaning of Idiom off your guard?
The expression "off your guard" means that you are not prepared; that you are not watching for something and are not ready; that you are relaxed and not tense with waiting for some event.
What were some pros and cons about the Silk Road?
The pros are that international trade started with this event. The cons are that the road was dangerous and often thieves would be out waiting.
How is a hypothesis and theory the same?
They are attempts to describe scientifically or otherwise some process/event/circumstance.
