Question 136
[Q.36] What is Belady's Anomaly in Operating Systems?
Detailed Solution
Belady's Anomaly occurs in FIFO page replacement where adding frames leads to more page faults.

Belady's Anomaly occurs in FIFO page replacement where adding frames leads to more page faults.
[Q.37] Which scheduling algorithm can lead to process Starvation for long CPU-bound jobs?
SJF continuously favors shorter tasks, causing long processes to starve indefinitely.
[Q.38] A state is declared 'Safe' in Banker's Algorithm if:
A safe state means a safe execution sequence exists where all processes can complete without deadlock.
[Q.39] What is the function of the Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB)?
TLB is an associative CPU cache storing recent page-table translation entries.
[Q.40] In operating system memory management, 'Thrashing' occurs when:
Thrashing happens when high page replacement frequency causes CPU utilization to drop near zero.
