Q53.

Consider a set of 5 processes whose arrival time, CPU time needed and the priority are given below:\begin{array}{llll} \text { Process Priority } & \text { Arrival Time (in ms) } & \text { CPU Time Needed } & \text { Priority } \\ \text { P1 } & 0 & 10 & 5 \\ \text { P2 } & 0 & 5 & 2 \\ \text { P3 } & 2 & 3 & 1 \\ \text { P4 } & 5 & 20 & 4 \\ \text { P5 } & 10 & 2 & 3 \end{array}(smaller the number, higher the priority) If the CPU scheduling policy is priority scheduling without pre-emption, the average waiting time will be

Q56.

Consider three CPU-intensive processes, which require 10, 20 and 30 time units and arrive at times 0, 2 and 6, respectively. How many context switches are needed if the operating system implements a shortest remaining time first scheduling algorithm? Do not count the context switches at time zero and at the end.

Q60.

A data structure is required for storing a set of integers such that each of the following operations can be done in O(\log n) time, where n is the number of elements in the set. 1. Deletion of the smallest element 2. Insertion of an element if it is not already present in the set Which of the following data structures can be used for this purpose?
