IMP Questions

This document contains 21 questions about operating system concepts including batch, time-sharing, and real-time operating systems, multitasking, processes and threads, process states and queues, semaphores, deadlock prevention and avoidance, memory management techniques like paging and segmentation, virtual memory, disk scheduling, preemption, RAID levels, and synchronization problems like the readers-writers problem and producer-consumer problem. It asks about scheduling algorithms, memory partitioning schemes, page replacement algorithms, virtual address translation, process control blocks, and the banker's algorithm for deadlock avoidance.
