Consider the progarm to be run on a computer using Round robin scheduling . The program size is 100K . hard disk transfer rate is 1mbps .Average latency is 8ms . assuming no head seek , what could be the acceptable time quantum for cpu utlization

1) 11oms

2) 180ms

3)210ms

d)none

I think it should be 110ms .. 100K/1MBPS = 100ms for transferring the program and 8 ms of latency.

The RR quantum should be sufficient to accommodate the two.

so 110ms should suffice.

But frankly I think something is missing in the question. They should have given the rate of program processing, i.e. when the program is in the main memory, then at what rate it can be processed..
