Which of the following is not a fundamental process state
Answer: B) terminated
The three fundamental process states in the basic three-state process model are:
1. Ready: The process is prepared to execute and waiting for CPU time.
2. Executing (Running): The process is currently being executed by the CPU.
3. Blocked (Waiting): The process is waiting for an event or resource, such as an I/O operation to complete.
Terminated means the process has finished execution. It is generally treated as a separate final state, not one of the three fundamental states in the basic three-state model.
Basic Three-State Process Model अनुसार Process का तीनवटा Fundamental States हुन्छन्:
1. Ready: Process Execute हुन तयार छ तर CPU पर्खिरहेको छ।
2. Executing (Running): Process हाल CPU द्वारा Execute भइरहेको छ।
3. Blocked (Waiting): Process कुनै Event वा Resource को प्रतीक्षामा छ, जस्तै I/O Operation पूरा हुन पर्खनु।
Terminated भनेको Process को Execution पूरा भइसकेको अवस्था हो। यसलाई Basic Three-State Model का तीन Fundamental States मध्ये समावेश गरिँदैन।
Exam Tip: Basic Process States = Ready, Running (Executing), Blocked (Waiting)। त्यसैले सही उत्तर B. Terminated हो।
