C – VI Practical List for Operating Systems
1. Write a program (using fork() and/or exec() commands) where parent and child execute:
a) same program, same code.
b) same program, different code.
c) before terminating, the parent waits for the child to finish its task.
2. Write a program to report behaviour of Linux kernel including kernel version, CPU type and
model. (CPU information)
3. Write a program to report behaviour of Linux kernel including information on 19 configured
memory, amount of free and used memory. (memory information)
4. Write a program to print file details including owner access permissions, file access time,
where file name is given as argument.
5. Write a program to copy files using system calls.
6. Write a program to implement FCFS scheduling algorithm.
7. Write a program to implement Round Robin scheduling algorithm.
8. Write a program to implement SJF scheduling algorithm.
9. Write a program to implement non-preemptive priority based scheduling algorithm.
