| Q16➡ | Computer Network Consider the following statements regarding the slow start phase of the TCP congestion control algorithm. Note that cwnd stands for the TCP congestion window and MSS denotes the Maximum Segment Size. (i) The cwnd increase by 2 MSS on every successful acknowledgement. (ii) The cwnd approximately doubles on every successful acknowledgement. (iii) The cwnd increase by 1 MSS every round trip time. (iv) The cwnd approximately doubles every round trip time. Which one of the following is correct? |
| i ➥ Only (ii) and (iii) are true |
| ii ➥ Only (i) and (iii) are true |
| iii ➥ Only (iv) is true |
| iv ➥ Only (i) and (iv) are true |
Show Answer With Best Explanation
Answer: III
Explanation:
Statement(I): The cwnd increase by 2 MSS on every successful acknowledgement. (False)
It is False because cwnd increase by 1 MSS on every successful acknowledgement.
Statement(II): The cwnd approximately doubles on every successful acknowledgement. (False)
It is False as the same reason for above.
Statement(III): The cwnd increase by 1 MSS every round trip time. (False)
Statement(IV): The cwnd approximately doubles every round trip time. (True)
There is a confusion between statement(II) and statement(IV).
Let’s understand it example
It is cleared with the diagram that:
The congestion window is increase by 1MSS on every successful acknowledge and
The congestion window approximately doubles every round trip time.
So, Option(III) is correct.

Show Answer With Best Explanation
Answer: 34 To 35
Explanation:
Given,
Bandwidth = 1 Gbps (109 bits/second)
Calculation,
=> 1Gb = 1 sec
=> 109 bits = 1 sec
=> (109 / 8) Byte = 1 sec
=> (109 / 8) Sequence number = 1 sec {*TCP count each Byte*}
=> 1 Sequence number = (8 / 109 ) sec
=> 232 Sequence number = ( 232 * 8)/ 109 sec {*Total 232 sequence number possible* }
=> wrap arround time = 34.55 = 34(aproximate)
The minimum time (in seconds, rounded to the closest integer) before this sequence number can be used again is 34.

Similarly, we use P(HD), P(MD) and P(LD) for Delhi. The following table gives the conditional probabilities for Delhi’s temperature given Guwahati’s temperature.  Consider the first row in the table above. The first entry denotes that if Guwahati has high temperature (HG) then the probability of Delhi also having a high temperature (HD) is 0.40; i.e., P(HD ∣ HG) = 0.40. Similarly, the next two entries are P(MD ∣ HG) = 0.48 and P(LD ∣ HG) = 0.12. Similarly for the other rows.

| Q48➡ | Algorithms Consider the weights and values of items listed below. Note that there is only one unit of each item.  The task is to pick a subset of these items such that their total weight is no more than 11 Kgs and their total value is maximized. Moreover, no item may be split. The total value of items picked by an optimal algorithm is denoted by Vopt. A greedy algorithm sorts the items by their value-to-weight ratios in descending order and packs them greedily, starting from the first item in the ordered list. The total value of items picked by the greedy algorithm is denoted by Vgreedy. The value of Vopt − Vgreedy is __ . |

| Q51➡ | Computer Network Consider a simple communication system where multiple nodes are connected by a shared broadcast medium (like Ethernet or wireless). The nodes in the system use the following carrier-sense based medium access protocol. A node that receives a packet to transmit will carrier-sense the medium for 5 units of time. If the node does not detect any other transmission in this duration, it starts transmitting its packet in the next time unit. If the node detects another transmission, it waits until this other transmission finishes, and then begins to carrier-sense for 5 time units again. Once they start to transmit, nodes do not perform any collision detection and continue transmission even if a collision occurs. All transmissions last for 20 units of time. Assume that the transmission signal travels at the speed of 10 meters per unit time in the medium. Assume that the system has two nodes P and Q, located at a distance d meters from each other. P starts transmitting a packet at time t=0 after successfully completing its carrier-sense phase. Node Q has a packet to transmit at time t=0 and begins to carrier-sense the medium. The maximum distance d (in meters, rounded to the closest integer) that allows Q to successfully avoid a collision between its proposed transmission and P’s ongoing transmission is _. |

| Q52➡ | Computer Network Consider an IP packet with a length of 4,500 bytes that includes a 20-byte IPv4 header and a 40-byte TCP header. The packet is forwarded to an IPv4 router that supports a Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of 600 bytes. Assume that the length of the IP header in all the outgoing fragments of this packet is 20 bytes. Assume that the fragmentation offset value stored in the first fragment is 0. The fragmentation offset value stored in the third fragment is __. |
Show Answer With Best Explanation
Answer: 144
Explanation:
Given,
IP Packet Length = 4500 Bytes
IP Header = 20 Bytes
MTU = 600 Bytes
Data,
IP Packet = IP Payload + IP Header
IP Payload = IP Packet – IP Header
IP Payload = 4500 – 20 = 4480 Bytes
MTU Payload = 600 – 20 = 580 Bytes
MTU Payload should be multiple of 8 But 580 is not multiple of 8. So, the nearest value of 580 which is multiple of 8 is 576.
Calculation,
The fragmentation offset value stored in the third fragment is 144.

| Q53➡ | Operating System Consider a storage disk with 4 platters (numbered as 0, 1, 2 and 3), 200 cylinders (numbered as 0, 1, … , 199), and 256 sectors per track (numbered as 0, 1, … 255). The following 6 disk requests of the form [sector number, cylinder number, platter number] are received by the disk controller at the same time: [120, 72, 2], [180, 134, 1], [60, 20, 0], [212, 86, 3], [56, 116, 2], [118, 16, 1] Currently head is positioned at sector number 100 of cylinder 80, and is moving towards higher cylinder numbers. The average power dissipation in moving the head over 100 cylinders is 20 milliwatts and for reversing the direction of the head movement once is 15 milliwatts. Power dissipation associated with rotational latency and switching of head between different platters is negligible. The total power consumption in milliwatts to satisfy all of the above disk requests using the Shortest Seek Time First disk scheduling algorithm is __ . |
