2) In a demand-paging system, the paging device has an average latency of 6ms, 1 point
seek time of 5ms, and transfer time of 0.1ms. The disk has a queue of waiting processes. The

average waiting time is 5ms. If the memory access time is 150ns and the page fault rate is 10%.
The effective memory access time is

Week 8 () 3) Suppose that a disk drive has 500 cylinders numbered 0 to 499. The drive currently 1 point
serves a request at cylinder 143; the previous request was at cylinder 125. The queue of
Week 9 () pending requests, in FIFO order, is 86, 170, 213, 474, 148, 109, 222, 450, and 330. Starting from

Quiz: Week 7) Suppose that a disk drive has 200 cylinders numbered 0 to 199. Consider a disk 1 point
12 : queue with I/O requests on the following cylinders in their arriving order: 54, 95, 73, 130, 25, 48,
Assignment 110, 30, 45, 180, and 190. The read/write head is positioned at cylinder 43 and moving in the
12 direction of decreasing cylinder number. Starting from the current head position 43, what is the
