In Fig. $2-2$, three process states are shown. In theory, with three states, there could be six transitions, two out of each state. However, only four transitions are shown. Are there any circumstances in which either or both of the missing transitions might occur?

In the text, we described a multithreaded Web server, showing why it is better than a single-threaded server and a finite-state machine server. Are there any circumstances in which a single-threaded server might be better? Give an example.

In the text it was stated that the model of Fig. $2-11(a)$ was not suited to a file server using a cache in memory. Why not? Could each process have its own cache?
