Instructions

This brief quiz is to encourage you to look at the homeworks that are available with the OSTEP textbook.  We will provide enough information in this quiz that you do not have to look at the homeworks, but you may find it helpful to do so.   

You may take this quiz multiple times and only the highest score will be kept; at the end of the quiz, you will be shown the correct answers with some explanations.  You may work on this quiz with others if you choose.

All of the homework scripts are available here:

http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~remzi/OSTEP/Homework/homework.html

This quiz will focus on mlfq.py  (which if you download all the scripts and untar them will be in the HW-MLFQ directory).

In all questions, assume there is no starvation mechanism in place.   

You will examine the behavior of 3 different workloads.  You may find it useful to draw a Gantt chart for each of the three workloads to easily answer the related questions.
