1. Which of the following is an interrupt according to temporal relationship with system clock?
(A) Maskable interrupt
(B) Periodic interrupt
(C) Division by zero
(D) Synchronous interrupt
Solution:
Maskable Interrupt: The hardware interrupts which can be delayed when a much highest priority interrupt has occurred to the processor.
Periodic Interrupt: If the interrupts occurred at fixed interval in timeline then that interrupts are called periodic interrupts.
Synchronous Interrupt: The source of interrupt is in phase to the system clock is called synchronous interrupt. In other words interrupts which are dependent on the system clock. Example: timer service that uses the system clock.
Division by Zero: Unplanned interrupts while executing a program is called Exception. For example: while executing a program if we got a value which should be divided by zero is called a exception.
Ans: (D)

   Addressing Mode      Location of operand

  1. Implied                          i. Registers which are in CPU
  2. Immediate                     ii. Register specifies the address

                                                   of the operand                                                                                                         3. Register                       iii.

  1. In 8085 microprocessor, the digit 5 indicates that the microprocessor needs
    (A) -5 volts, +5 volts supply
    (B) +5 volts supply only

    (D) 5 MHz clock                                                                                         Solution: The “5” in the part number highlighted the fact that the 8085 uses a single +5-volt (V) power supply by using depletion-mode transistors, rather than requiring the +5 V, −5 V and +12 V supplies needed by the 8080.

Ans: (B)


  1. In 8085, which of the following performs: load register pair immediate operation?
    (A) LDAX rp

  1. Consider following schedules involving two transactions:
    S1: r1(X); r1(Y); r2(X); r2(Y); w2(Y); w1(X)
    S2: r1(X); r2(X); r2(Y); w2(Y); r1(Y); w1(X)
    Which of the following statement is true?
    (1) Both S1 and S2 are conflict serializable.
    (2) S1 is conflict serializable and S2 is not conflict serializable.
    (3) S1 is not conflict serializable and S2 is conflict serializable.
    (4) Both S1 and S2 are not conflict serializable.

Solution: Since S1 contains a cycle, it is not a conflict serializable schedule, but S2 is a conflict serializable schedule.

Ans: (C)


  1. Which one is correct w.r.t. RDBMS?
    (A) primary key ⊆ super key ⊆ candidate key
    (B) primary key ⊆ candidate key ⊆ super key
    (C) super key ⊆ candidate key ⊆ primary key
    (D) super key ⊆ primary key ⊆ candidate key

Solution: A relation has one or more candidate keys and one candidate key can be selected as a primary key for the relation. One or more attributes which can define all the other attributes in a relation is called a super key. Hence, primary key is a subset of candidate key and candidate key is a subset of super key.

Ans: (B)


  1. Let pk(R) denotes primary key of relation R. A many-to-one relationship that exists between two relations R1 and R2 can be expressed as follows:

(A) pk(R2)→pk(R1)

(B) pk(R1)→pk(R2)

(C) pk(R2)→R1∩R2

(D) pk(R1)→R1∩R2

Ans: (C)
Solution: An arrow mark from A to B defines that there exists a many to one relationship between A to B. In case of Many To One, we need to consider only the primary keys of relation with many attributes.


  1. For a database relation R(A,B,C,D) where the domains of A,B,C and D include only atomic values, only the following functional dependencies and those that can be inferred from them are:
    A→C
    B→D
    The relation R is in …………….
    (A) First normal form but not in second normal form
    (B) Both in first normal form as well as in second normal form
    (C) Second normal form but not in third normal form
    (D) Both in second normal form as well as in third normal form                                                                                                                                                                       Ans: (A)                                                                                                                        Solution: In the above relation R, the candidate key is AB, so in the first functional dependency there exists a Partial Dependency. The second FD also shows partial dependency, so the relation cannot be in 2NF.

  1. Consider the following relation:

Works (emp_name, company_name, salary)

Here, emp_name is primary key.

Consider the following SQL query

Select emp_name

From Works T

where salary>(select avg (salary)

from Works S

where T.company_name=Company_name)

The above query is for following:
(A) Find the highest paid employee who earns more than the average salary of all employees of his company.
(B) Find the highest paid employee who earns more than the average salary of all the employees of all the companies.
(C) Find all employees who earn more than the average salary of all employees of all the companies.
(D) Find all employees who earn more than the average salary of all employees of their company.

Ans: (D)

Solution: In the inner query, we are selecting the average salary of all employees of the company, whereas outer query is selecting all the employees whose salary is greater than the previously computed average salary.

Step 2 − Set decision parameter D = 3 – 2R.

Step 3 − Repeat through step-8 while X < Y.

Step 4 − Call Draw Circle (X, Y, P, Q).

Step 5 − Increment the value of P.

Step 6 − If D < 0 then D = D + 4x + 6.

Step 7 − Else Set Y = Y + 1, D = D + 4(X-Y) + 10.

Step 8 − Call Draw Circle (X, Y, P, Q).

Solution:
DDA Algorithm

Digital Differential Analyzer (DDA) algorithm is the simple line generation algorithm which is explained step by step here.

Step 1 − Get the input of two end points (X0,Y0) and (X1,Y1).

Step 2 − Calculate the difference between two end points.
dx = X1 – X0 dy = Y1 – Y0 Step 3 − Based on the calculated difference in step-2, you need to identify the number of steps to put pixel. If dx > dy, then you need more steps in x coordinate; otherwise in y coordinate.
if (absolute(dx) > absolute(dy)) Steps = absolute(dx); else Steps = absolute(dy);

Step 4 − Calculate the increment in x coordinate and y coordinate.

Xincrement = dx / (float) steps; Yincrement = dy / (float) steps;

Step 5 − Put the pixel by successfully incrementing x and y coordinates accordingly and complete the drawing of the line.

for(int v=0; v < Steps; v++) { x = x + Xincrement; y = y + Yincrement; putpixel(Round(x), Round(y)); }

Ans: (A)

Apart from that, no other language given in options is a regular one, because they require computations.

Considering a=1.4 as multiplicative factor, b=1.0 as exponention factor for the basic COCOMO effort equation and c=3.0 as multiplicative factor, d=0.33 as exponention factor for the basic COCOMO duration equation, approximately how long does the project take to complete?
