The function $$f\left( {x,y} \right) = 2{x^2} + 2xy - {y^3}$$ has

Which of the following scheduling algorithms is non-preemptive?

Draw the process state transition diagram of an $$OS$$ in which
(i) each process is in one of the five states: created, ready, running, blocked (i.e. sleep or wait), or terminated, and
(ii) only non-preemptive scheduling is used by the $$OS.$$ Label the transitions appropriately.

Which combination of the following features will suffice to characterize an $$OS$$ as a multi-programmed $$OS?$$
$$(a).$$ More than one program may be loaded into main memory at the same time for execution.
$$(b).$$ If a program waits for certain events such as $$I/O$$, another program is immediately scheduled for execution.
$$(c).$$ If the execution of a program terminates, another program is immediately scheduled for execution.
