| Operating System Questions | | 2008-03-23 08:22:00 | | Following are a few basic questions that cover the essentials of OS:1. What is the difference between Swapping and Paging?Swapping: Whole process is moved from the swap device to the main memory for execution.Process size must be less than or equal to the available main memory.It is easier to implementation and overhead to the system.Swapping system does not handle the memory more flexibly as compated to the paging systems.
Paging:Only the required memory pages are moved to main memory from the swap device for execution. Process size does not matter. Gives the concept of the virtual memory. It provides greater flexibility in mapping the virtual address space into the physical memory of the machine. Allows more number of processes to fit in the main memory simultaneously. Allows the greater process size than the available physical memory. Demand paging systems handle the memory more flexibly. 2.

What else but its touch interface. According to the Inside Microsoft Blog, WIndows Mobile 7 "will emphasize the use of touch on the device".Here's another quote from the blog:Windows Mobile 7 will use motion gestures, something the iPhone does not. It will not use an intricate and complicated series of gyroscopes and accelerometers. Instead, it will use the camera on the phone to detect motions and create appropriate actions. You will be able to shake, twist and otherwise manipulate the phone and get things done.
