COMPUTER SCIENCE

Consider a file system on a disk that has both logical and physical block sizes of 512 bytes. Assume that the information about each file file is already in memory. For each of the three allocation strategies (contiguous, linked, and indexed), answer these questions: a. How is the logical-to-physical address mapping accomplished in this system? (For the indexed allocation, assume that a file is always less than 512 blocks long.) b. If we are currently at logical block 10 (the last block accessed was block 10) and want to access logical block 4, how many physical blocks must be read from the disk?

What are the 2 main components of CPU?

There are 2 parts of the CPU: The ALU and Control Unit. The Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) performs arithmetic operations (such as addition and subtraction) and logical operations (such as comparing two values). The Control Unit deciphers and carries out instructions.

What are two major components of the CPU and what is the purpose of each?

The arithmetic logic unit (ALU) performs the arithmetic and logical functions that are the work of the computer. The A and B registers hold the input data, and the accumulator receives the result of the operation.

What are the main components of CPU?

The three logical units that make up the central processing unit are the arithmetic and logic unit (ALU), main storage, and the control unit.

What are the two functions that a CPU performs choose two?

This unit's functions are as follows: It is in charge of controlling the transfer of data and instructions among the various components of a computer. It manages and coordinates all of the computer's units. It reads instructions from memory, interprets them, and directs the computer's operation.
