The processor scheduling (CPU scheduling) determines which processes are assigned to, and removed from the CPU, based on scheduling models such as preemptive and non-preemptive scheduling. CPU scheduling makes the full use of CPU resulting in a fast and efficient system. Usually, tasks in computer systems are assigned based on priorities. At some point, it … Read more
Gets() Gets is used to receive inputs from the keyboard till encountering a newline or End Of File (EOF). The whitespace is considered as part of the input. gets() receives a string from the keyboard. scanf() has some limitations while a receiving a string of characters.There is no way to enter a multi-word string into a single variable. gets()function … Read more
WAN stands for Wide Area Network, LAN stands for Local Area Network and MAN stands for Metropolitan Area Network. All the three technologies are mainly used for data communication. They cover a distance of between 100 to 1000 meters. Below is detailed overview that differentiates the three technologies from each other. Local Area Network (LAN) … Read more
There are three major releases of Angular. The first version that was released is Angular 1, which is also referred to as Angular JS. Angular 1 was followed by Angular 2, which came with a lot of improvements when compared to Angular 1. Angular 2 is an open source JavaScript framework to build web applications … Read more
What Is Recursion? Recursion is a method of solving a problem where the solution depends on solutions to smaller instances of the same problem. The approach can be applied to many types of problems. Recursion is used in variety of disciplines ranging from linguistics to logic. The most common application of recursion is in mathematics … Read more
What Is logical Address? A logical address also referred to as a virtual address, is an address of something generated by the central processing unit (CPU) while a program is running. Usually, the operating system or some other programs uses base addresses as a measure to find addresses. In this case the base address refers … Read more
What Are Loops? Looping in programming language is a feature which facilitates the execution of a set of instructions/functions repeatedly while some condition evaluates to be true. A program executes the sequence of statements many times until the stated condition becomes false. A loop consists of two parts, a body of a loop and a … Read more
Cryptographic hash functions are widely used in many aspects of information security such as digital signatures and data integrity checks. These functions take an electronic file, message or block of data and generate a short digital fingerprint of the content referred to as message digest or hash value. What Is MD5? The message digest (MD5) … Read more
When it comes to making decisions within a program, developers often face the challenge of choosing the most appropriate conditional statement. Among the popular options are the ‘Switch Case’ and ‘Else-If Ladder’ constructs. These decision-making tools in programming play an important role in controlling the program flow based on certain conditions. However, learning when and … Read more
What Is Linear Cryptanalysis? Linear cryptanalysis is a known plaintext attack, in which the attacker studies probabilistic linear relations known as linear approximations between parity bits of the plaintext, the Ciphertext and the secrete key. In this technique, the attacker obtains high probability approximations for the parity bit of the secrete key by analyzing the … Read more
