Consider a system with 14 dedicated devices of the same type. All jobs currently running on this system require a maximum of five devices to complete their execution but they each run for long periods of time with just three devices and request the remaining two only at the very end of the run. Assume that the job stream is endless and that your operating system’s device allocation policy is a very conservative one: No job will be started unless all the required drives have been allocated to it for the entire duration of its run. a. What is the maximum number of jobs that can be active at once

The instruction ishl (shift left integer) exists in jvm but not in ijvm. it uses the top two values on the stack, replacing the two with a single value, the result. the sec- ond-from-top word of the stack is the operand to be shifted. its content is shifted left by a value between 0 and 31, inclusive, depending on the value of the 5 least signifi- cant bits of the top word on the stack (the other 27 bits of the top word are ignored). zeros are shifted in from the right for as many bits as the shift count. the opcode for ishl is 120 (0x78).a. what is the arithmetic operation equivalent to shifting left with a count of 2? b. extend the microcode to include this instruction as a part of ijv.
