Determine the current allocation state and granted process, Computer Engineering

Assignment Help:

An operating system contains 3 resource classes. The number of resource units in these classes is 7, 7 and 10. The current resource allocation state is shown below:

 

Processes

Allocated resources

Maximum requirements

R1

R2

R3

(i) Is the current allocation state safe?

(ii) Can the request made by process P1 (1, 1, 0) be granted?

(i) In the specified question,

Available  matrix  for  resources  [R1  R2  R3]  =  No  of  resource  unit  - Total Allocation

= [7 7 10]-[5 4 10] = [2 3 0]

Need matrix is identified as (Max - Allocation),

Processes

Need of resources

R1

R3

P1

P3

By using Safety Algorithm, we find sequence:

Processes

Available resources

after satisfying need

R1

R3

P2

P3

7

P1

10

The sequence < P2, P3, and P1 > satisfies the safety criteria. Therefore current allocation state is safe.

(ii) Request made through process P1, Request (P1) = [1 1 0] Here, Request (P1) < Need (P1) < Available

That is [1 1 0]< [1 4 5] < [2 3 0]

Pretending such request can be fulfilled, we find new state:

Processes

Allocation

Need

Available

R1

R2

R3

Because Need > Available for all process, no need can be fulfilled therefore allocation is not thread safe that is request made through Process P1 can't be granted.
