6. How interrupts will be handled in operating system
7.Why swapspace is required in operating system
8.how come a swapspace accessing is faster than normal secondary memory access though swapspace is a part of secondary memory.
9.What is the concept of micro kernel architecture
10.Is windows/linux is micro kernel architecture

12.How the devices are managed if more devices are available than IRQ lines
12.How the devices associated with a single IRQ line are managed.
13.How the operating system finds out which device has generated the interrupt in a single IRQ
14.Which ISR is serviced if we get an interrupt from an IRQ connected to more than one device.
13.write an inplace strrev routine
14.Why pointer manipulations are faster
15.int sum(int a,int b)
{
int s;
s = a + b;
return s;
}
convert this function to a macro......

17.Finding the no. of 1's in a binary representation of a number.
18.Two linked lists are given, if the two lists are merging at one point and becoming a single list from that point find out point of merging in linear time.
19.What is the difference btw char *s="iitg"
char s[]="iitg"
like compiler error or runtime error if we try to change the value of that s array

8.what is a super block
9.Which layer of networks u r most comfortable with (I told except physical layer I am comfortable with all other layers, then he started asking questions only on physical layer, though, I have answered well)
10.Tell about the significance of physical layer in networks
11.why fiber optics data rate is very high
