Q1. Congestion Control is done by which layer.

Data link layer

Network layer

Transport layer

Application layer

None of the above

Solution:

congestion is a state occurring in network layer when the message traffic is so heavy that it slows down network response time. Congestion control is done by network layer by Leaky Bucket Algorithm and Token bucket Algorithm.

Q2. What is the amount of time takes for the desired sector of a disk to rotate under the read-write heads of the disk drive?

Positioning time

Random access time

Seek time

Rotational latency

None of these

Solution:

A rotational delay or rotational latency is the amount of time between information requests and how long it takes the hard drive to move to the sector where the requested data is located.

Q3. Which is focused towards the goal of the organization?

Feasibility study

Requirement gathering

Software requirement specification

Software requirement validation

None of these

Solution:

Feasibility study is basically the test of the proposed system in the light of its workability, meeting user’s requirement, effective use of resources and the cost effectiveness. These are categorized as technical, operational, economic, schedule and social feasibility. The main goal of feasibility study is to achieve scope.

Q4. ________ has many of the characteristics of what is now being called cloud computing.

Internet

Software

Web Service

All of the mentioned

WiFi

Solution:

The Internet offers abstraction, runs using the same set of protocols and standards, and uses the same applications and operating systems.

Q5. In a virtual memory system, the addresses used by the programmer belongs to

Memory space.

Physical addresses.

Address space.

Main memory address.

None of these

Solution:

An address used by programmers in a system supporting virtual memory concept is called virtual address and the set of such addresses are called address space.

Q6. What are the 3 principles of information security?

Authentication, Availability, Accessibility

Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability,

Integrity, Authentication, Confidentiality

Availability, Security, Encryption

None of these

Solution:

A principle which is a core requirement of information security for the safe utilization, flow, and storage of information is the CIA triad. CIA stands for confidentiality, integrity, and availability and these are the three main objectives of information security.

Q7. Ethernet uses a _____________ physical address that is imprinted on the network interface card.

64 bit

68 byte

6 bit

6 byte

32 bit

Solution:

Ethernet uses a 6 -byte (48-bit) physical address that is imprinted on the network interface card (NIC). The physical address also known as the link address is the address of a node physical address, also known as the link address, is the address of a node as defined by its LAN or WAN. It is included in the frame used by the data link layer.

Q8. __________ is backing up data by making a copy of the database and it maintain by local or remote computer.

Data Shadowing

Data Mirroring

Both (a) and (b)

Data Isolation

None of these

Solution:

In Data backup technique an identical copy of a firm’s database is maintained on a local or remote computer. The primary database and its shadow are so linked via cable, telephone line, or wireless that any change in the former is instantly reflected in the latter. It is also called data mirroring.

Q9. Which Wi-Fi security is impossible to crack?

WEP

WPA

MAC filtering

WPA2

None of these

Solution:

No wireless security system is impossible to crack but MAC Filtering is the hardest. By employing MAC Filtering the administrator of a Wi-Fi network can limit the access to the network to only those devices whose MAC addresses have been entered into the router. While this is a very hard security protocol to crack MAC addresses can be spoofed and a system can then be tricked into allowing access to an unauthorized user so it is advisable to run both MAC filtering and WPA2 protocol.

Q10. Which of these keywords can be used to prevent Method overriding?

Static

Constant

Protected

Final

None of these

Solution:

To disallow a method from being overridden, specify final as a modifier at the start of its declaration. Methods declared as final cannot be overridden.

Virtual programming

Multi programming

Caching

Multitasking

Spooling

Solution:

Spooling is a technique to hold data temporarily in the computer memory and provide to devices when they need it. The temporary holding area of the memory is sometimes referred to as the buffer. One common example of spooling is printing, where files are stored in the buffer and sent to the printer when it is ready.
