In paged memory allocation, job allocation is always done in contiguous memory.

False

One of the disadvantages of paged memory allocation is excessive external fragmentation.

False

Page size does not play a crucial role in paged memory allocation.

False

Demand paging memory allocation loads the entire program into memory at once.

False

Demand paging memory allocation requires low-speed page access.

False

In demand paging memory allocation, all pages of a program need to be present in memory simultaneously.

False

Demand paging memory allocation requires less main memory than paged memory allocation scheme.

True

Swapping is the process of passing pages between memory and secondary storage in demand paging.

True

The Page Map Table keeps track of each job's entire physical memory usage.

False

In demand paging, the Page Map Table checks if a requested page is already in memory and if its contents are modified.

True

Algorithm implementation for demand paging includes tables like Job Table and Memory Map Table.

False

Demand paging requires high-speed direct access storage devices (DASDs) like optical disks.

False

Demand paging memory allocation always removes main memory pages permanently.

False

Thrashing occurs when there is excessive page swapping, leading to inefficient operation.

True

A single page frame available in demand paging can lead to one page fault each time a loop is executed in a C program.

True

Thrashing can occur across multiple jobs in a system due to a large number of jobs and limited free pages.

True

Demand paging memory allocation involves permanently removing main memory pages.

False

Loops crossing page boundaries can contribute to thrashing within a job.

True

This quiz covers the concept of demand paging memory allocation in operating systems. Topics include virtual memory, appearance of physical memory, swapping, and predefined policies. Learn about the advantages and requirements of this memory allocation scheme.
