Review Questions 4.1 Table 3.5 lists typical elements found in a process control block for an unthreaded OS. Of these‚ which should belong to a thread control block and which should belong to a Process control block for a multithreaded system? Identifiers will appear in both thread and process control blocks‚ because both need to be identified. Processor State Information should belongs to process control block. Kernel will only interact with process not threads. Process Control Information:

spooling where the CPU overlaps the input of one job with the computation and of other jobs. ( Prefetching is a method of overlapping the I/O of a job with that job’s own computation. After a read operation completes and the job is about to start operating on the data‚ the input device is instructed to begin the next read immediately. The CPU and input device are then both busy. With luck‚ by the time that the job is ready for the next data item‚ the input device will have finished reading that data

6) What are the two differences between user-level and kernel-level threads? Under what circumstances is one type is better than other? Answer: 1- User-level threads are unknown by the kernel‚ whereas the kernel is aware of kernel threads. 2- On systems using either M: 1 or M: N mapping‚ user threads are scheduled by the thread library and the kernel schedules kernel threads. 3- Kernel threads need not be associated with a process whereas every user thread belongs to a process. Kernel threads
