Explain two circumstances that could render use of context switching in operating systems.​

Write a program that uses a widgetviewer object to do the following: generate two random integers between 1 and 9 (inclusive). name one of them x, the other y. display them to the user using jlabel objects. create a jlabel object displaying the text "enter an operation number." create a jtextfield for the user's input. create a jbutton displaying the text "press here when you've entered your operation." use addandwait to add it to the widgetviewer object. when the user clicks the jbutton, evaluate operation in the following order to determine the one and only mathematical operation to perform on x and y. use a jlabel to display the result. if operation is between 1 and 10 inclusive, add x and y. if operation is evenly divisible by 4, subtract y from x. if operation is evenly divisible by 5, use integer division to divide y into x. if operation is an even number, use floating point division to divide y into x. if none of the other tests on operation apply, multiply x and y. note: operation can be negative or zero.

Using least squares fitting, you are to fit the data sets to the following models and solve for the parameters ai , where i is the index of the parameter. the input/output data for the systems are linked in the bblearn site. for each of the systems use matlab to plot the supplied data vs. the model fit on one plot. include your code in the solutions. (a) linear fit "lineardata.mat" y=a1x^3 + a2x^2 + a3x + a4 (b) plant fit "plantdata.mat g(s) = a1/(s + a2)

Consider a byte-addressable computer with 16mb of main memory, a cache capable of storing a total of 64kb of data and block size of 32 bytes. (a) how many bits in the memory address? (b) how many blocks are in the cache? (c) specify the format of the memory address, including names and sizes, when the cache is: 1. direct-mapped 2. 4-way set associative 3. fully associative
