| Question 8 |
Consider the following heap (figure) in which blank regions are not in use and hatched region are in use.
The sequence of requests for blocks of size 300, 25, 125, 50 can be satisfied if we use
| either first fit or best fit policy (any one) | |
| first fit but not best fit policy | |
| best fit but first fit policy | |
| None of the above |
Question 8 Explanation:
In first fit, block request will be satisfied from the first free block that fits it.
So, request for 300 will be satisfied by 350 size block reducing the free size to 50.
Request for 25, satisfied by 125 size block, reducing it to 125.
Request for 125 satisfied by the 125 size block.
And request for 50 satisfied by 50 size block.
So, all requests can be satisfied.
In best fit strategy, a block request is satisfied by the smallest block in which can fit it. So, request for 300 will be satisfied by 350 size block reducing the free size to 50.
Request for 25, satisfied by 50 size block as its the smallest size that fits 25, reducing it to 25.
Request for 125, satisfied by 150 size block, reducing it to 25.
Now, request for 50 cannot be satisfied as the two 25 size blocks are not contiguous.
So, request for 300 will be satisfied by 350 size block reducing the free size to 50.
Request for 25, satisfied by 125 size block, reducing it to 125.
Request for 125 satisfied by the 125 size block.
And request for 50 satisfied by 50 size block.
So, all requests can be satisfied.
In best fit strategy, a block request is satisfied by the smallest block in which can fit it. So, request for 300 will be satisfied by 350 size block reducing the free size to 50.
Request for 25, satisfied by 50 size block as its the smallest size that fits 25, reducing it to 25.
Request for 125, satisfied by 150 size block, reducing it to 25.
Now, request for 50 cannot be satisfied as the two 25 size blocks are not contiguous.
Correct Answer: B
Question 8 Explanation:
In first fit, block request will be satisfied from the first free block that fits it.
So, request for 300 will be satisfied by 350 size block reducing the free size to 50.
Request for 25, satisfied by 125 size block, reducing it to 125.
Request for 125 satisfied by the 125 size block.
And request for 50 satisfied by 50 size block.
So, all requests can be satisfied.
In best fit strategy, a block request is satisfied by the smallest block in which can fit it. So, request for 300 will be satisfied by 350 size block reducing the free size to 50.
Request for 25, satisfied by 50 size block as its the smallest size that fits 25, reducing it to 25.
Request for 125, satisfied by 150 size block, reducing it to 25.
Now, request for 50 cannot be satisfied as the two 25 size blocks are not contiguous.
So, request for 300 will be satisfied by 350 size block reducing the free size to 50.
Request for 25, satisfied by 125 size block, reducing it to 125.
Request for 125 satisfied by the 125 size block.
And request for 50 satisfied by 50 size block.
So, all requests can be satisfied.
In best fit strategy, a block request is satisfied by the smallest block in which can fit it. So, request for 300 will be satisfied by 350 size block reducing the free size to 50.
Request for 25, satisfied by 50 size block as its the smallest size that fits 25, reducing it to 25.
Request for 125, satisfied by 150 size block, reducing it to 25.
Now, request for 50 cannot be satisfied as the two 25 size blocks are not contiguous.
