    The document summarizes key points about an operating system midterm exam lab: 1. It lists the file paths and names of 5 common programs on a Windows system. 2. It explains that direct access to files with variable-length records is difficult because the location of data depends on the data stored in each field, and suggests using fixed-length records with fixed-length fields instead. 3. It compares critical regions, which control access to shared resources, to a working set, which is the part of a process actively being executed by the CPU, noting it is inefficient for a working set to include an entire application.

    Operating System (Midterm Exam Lab)

    Name: Daquigan, Mark Rester N. Permit No: 101041 Student No: 11-040296-64

    5 LOCATION FILENAME EXTENSION ""C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger\YahooMessenger.exe" " C:\Program Files\Windows Defender.exe" "C:\Program Files\7-Zip.exe" C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\calc.exe" C:\Users\ACLC\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\cmd.exe"

    2.) Explain why it's difficult to support direct access to files with variable-length records. Suggest a method for handling this type of file direct access is required. It is difficult because to support direct access because it depends on what data is stored in the field. Good starting point for the study of fixed-length records with fixed-length fields.

    3.) Compare and contrast the critical region and working set. A critical region is a section of code in which a shared resource is accessed. To control access to the shared resource, access is controlled to the critical region of code. While working set of a process is the section of data and code that is being executed by the CPU. It is therefore unwise to load the entire application into memory.
