Operating System______ is the time required to move the disk-arm to the desired track. (i) Seek time (ii) Rotational Latency (iii) Access time (iv) Waiting time20222mOperating SystemSuppose a disk has 100 cylinders, numbered from 0 to 99. At some time the disk arm is at cylinder 50, and there is a queue of disk access requests for cylinders 4, 34, 10, 7, 19, 73, 2, 15, 6 and 20. Assuming that shortest seek-time first (SSTF) is being used for scheduling the disk access. Calculate the total time taken to satisfy all requests if it takes 1 millisecond to move from one cylinder to adjacent one.20227mOperating SystemDescribe seek time, rotational latency, random-access time and their relationship in context of magnetic disks by drawing its moving – head mechanism.20227mOperating SystemSuppose that a disk drive has 5000 cylinders, numbered 0 to 4999. The drive is currently serving a request at cylinder 143, and the previous request was at cylinder 125. The queue of pending request, in FIFO order is: 86, 1470, 913, 1774, 948, 1509, 1022, 1750, 130 Starting from the current head position, applying Shortest-seek-time-first (SSTF) algorithm find what is the total distance (in cylinders) that the disk arm moves to satisfy all the pending requests.20257m
