Question

Discuss three major complications that concurrent processing adds to an OS

Answer 1

Explanation:

The three measures are :

1- As multiple processes are concurrently running on the system, the operating system requires keeping track of all the storage space is addressed on main memory to prevent on process from mixing with another or using the information stored for any other running process.

2- Context switching between two simultaneous processes requires enough time to locate and maintain register values for program running .

A continuous communication between operating system and program control block may overload the system.

3- Process that requires big data blocks for execution may enter deadlocks in wait of getting resources freed up by other processes.

Hope this answer is helpful.
