(b)

Define the different types of operating system.Ans: The operating systems are of mainly following types:(i)Single Program OS: This is a single user operating system, so only one user program can supported and executed at a time.(ii) Multi-program OS: It supports multiprogramming i.e. more than one user can be supported by it, therefore more than one user program are loaded and active at the same time.(iii) Time Sharing OS: This OS uses time sharing technique. Each active user program is given a fair share time.(iv) Real Time OS: In real time OS, the jobs have fixed deadlines and the jobs have to be completed within their deadlines.

(e)

What are types of Computers? Explain in brief.Ans: The computer have been classified into three categories:(i)Digital Computers: The digital computer works upon discontinuous data. They convert the data into digits (0 and 1) and all operations are carried out on these digits at extremely fast rate. Digital computer used for business and scientific applications. The digital computer can further be classified in two ways : (a) Purpose wise (b) Size and performance wise. ( 1 mark)

(ii) Analog Computers: Computer in which continuously variable physical quantities, such as electrical potential, fluid pressure, or mechanical motion, are used to represent (analogously) the quantities in the problem to be solved. The analog system is set up according to initial conditions and then allowed to change freely. Analog computers are especially well suited to simulating dynamic systems; such simulations may be conducted in real time or at greatly accelerated rates, allowing experimentation by performing many runs with different variables. ( 1 mark)

(iii) Hybrid Computers: computers that exhibit features of analog computers and digital computers. In these computers some calculation take place in analog manner and rest of them take place in digital manner. The digital component normally serves as the controller and provides logical operations, while the analog component normally serves as a solver of differential equations.

(c)

How is FOREIGN KEY command different from PRIMARY KEY command?Ans: A primary key is an attribute (or combination of attributes) that uniquely identifies each row in a relation. The primary key of an entity set allows us to distinguish among the various entities of the set.

A foreign key is an attribute in a relation of database that serves as the primary key of another relation in the same database. FOREIGN KEY command is used to make column as foreign key and also PRIMARY KEY command is used to make a field as primary key. These commands are used while creating the table.
