A
$$13$$ units
B
$$14$$ units
C

Consider three processes, all arriving at time zero, with total execution time of $$10,20,$$ and $$30$$ units, respectively. Each process spends the first $$20$$% of execution time doing $${\rm I}/O$$, the next $$70$$% of time doing computation, and the last $$10$$% of time doing $${\rm I}/O$$ again. The operating system uses a shortest remaining compute time first scheduling algorithm and scheduling a new process either when the running processes gets blocked on $${\rm I}/O$$ or when the running process finishes its compute burst. Assume that all $${\rm I}/O$$ operations can be overlapped as much as possible. For what percentage of time does the $$CPU$$ remain idle?
A
$$0$$%
B
$$10.6$$%
C
$$30.0$$%
D
$$89.4$$%

Consider the following code fragment:
if (fork() == 0)
{
   a = a + 5;
   printf("%d, %d \n", a, &a);
}
else
{
   a = a - 5;
   printf ("%d, %d \n", a, &a);
}

Let $$u,v$$ be the values printed by the parent process, and $$x,y$$ be the values printed by the child process. Which one of the following is TRUE?
A
$$u=x+10$$ and $$v=y$$
B
$$u=x+10$$ and $$v \ne y$$
C
$$u+10=x$$ and $$v=y$$
D
$$u+10=x$$ and $$v \ne y$$
