Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

By matching the core Operating System concepts to their respective algorithms/structures:

  • (A) Disk Scheduling ⟶ (2) SCAN: SCAN (also known as the elevator algorithm) is a classic disk scheduling algorithm used to determine the order in which data head requests are serviced.

  • (B) Batch Processing ⟶ (4) FIFO: Early batch processing systems executed jobs non-preemptively in the exact order they arrived, which is First-In, First-Out (FIFO).

  • (C) Time sharing ⟶ (1) Round robin: Time-sharing systems give each process a small, equal slice of CPU time (quantum) in a rotating order, which is the definition of Round-robin scheduling.

  • (D) Interrupt processing ⟶ (3) LIFO: When an interrupt occurs, the current CPU state is pushed onto a stack (Last-In, First-Out) so the system can handle the interrupt and later resume the original task from the exact same spot.

Matching these gives: A-2, B-4, C-1, D-3, which corresponds to code c.
