Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A computing system has 80 frames and currently runs 5 processes. If Process A requires 20 pages, Process B requires 10, Process C requires 15, Process D requires 25, and Process E requires 10, analyze if proportional allocation is achievable and suggest adjustments.

💡 Hint: Consider the significance of process sizes.

Question 2

Given that a system is experiencing thrashing due to insufficient frames, how can you apply the working set model to resolve this issue?

💡 Hint: Think about the balance of priorities and frame availability.
