AIM
The probabilistic models are employed in countless applications in all areas of science
and engineering. Queuing theory provides models for a number of situations that arise in
real life. The course aims at providing necessary mathematical support and confidence
to tackle real life problems.
OBJECTIVES
At the end of the course, the students would
Have a well – founded knowledge of standard distributions which can describe
real life phenomena.
Acquire skills in handling situations involving more than one random variable and
functions of random variables.
Understand and characterize phenomena which evolve with respect to time in a
probabilistic manner.
Be exposed to basic characteristic features of a queuing system and acquire
skills in analyzing queuing models.

(Implement the following on LINUX or other Unix like platform. Use C for high level
language implementation)
1. Write programs using the following system calls of UNIX operating system:
fork, exec, getpid, exit, wait, close, stat, opendir, readdir
2. Write programs using the I/O system calls of UNIX operating system (open, read,
write, etc)
3. Write C programs to simulate UNIX commands like ls, grep, etc.
4. Given the list of processes, their CPU burst times and arrival times, display/print
the Gantt chart for FCFS and SJF. For each of the scheduling policies, compute
and print the average waiting time and average turnaround time. (2 sessions)
5. Given the list of processes, their CPU burst times and arrival times, display/print
the Gantt chart for Priority and Round robin. For each of the scheduling policies,
compute and print the average waiting time and average turnaround time. (2
sessions)
6. Developing Application using Inter Process communication (using shared
memory, pipes or message queues)
7. Implement the Producer – Consumer problem using semaphores (using UNIX
system calls).
8. Implement some memory management schemes – I
9. Implement some memory management schemes – II
10. Implement any file allocation technique (Linked, Indexed or Contiguous)
Example for exercises 8 & 9 :
Free space is maintained as a linked list of nodes with each node having the starting
byte address and the ending byte address of a free block. Each memory request
consists of the process-id and the amount of storage space required in bytes. Allocated
memory space is again maintained as a linked list of nodes with each node having the
process-id, starting byte address and the ending byte address of the allocated space.
When a process finishes (taken as input) the appropriate node from the allocated list
should be deleted and
this free disk space should be added to the free space list. [Care should be taken to
merge contiguous free blocks into one single block. This results in deleting more than
one node from the free space list and changing the start and end address in the
appropriate node]. For allocation use first fit, worst fit and best fit.
