int c;
c=a; a=b; b=c;
}
void f2(int *a, int *b) {

Answer: B

36.       Suppose that the stop-and-wait protocol is used on a link with a bit rate of 64 kilobits per second and 20 milliseconds propagation delay. Assume that the transmission time for the acknowledgement and the processing time at nodes are negligible. Then the minimum frame size in bytes to achieve a link utilization of at least 50% is .................
Answer: 160
37.       Consider a max heap, represented by the array: 40, 30, 20, 10, 15, 16, 17, 8, 4.
Now consider that a value 35 is inserted into this heap. After insertion, the new heap is
(A) 40, 30, 20, 10, 15, 16, 17, 8, 4, 35
(B) 40, 35, 20, 10, 30, 16, 17, 8, 4, 15
(C) 40, 30, 20, 10, 35, 16, 17, 8, 4, 15
(D) 40, 35, 20, 10, 15, 16, 17, 8, 4, 30
Answer: B
38.       Consider the following C program segment.
while(first <= last)
{
if (array[middle] < search)
first = middle + 1;
else if (array[middle] == search)
found = TRUE;
else last = middle - 1;
middle = (first + last)/2;
}
if (first > last) notPresent = TRUE;
The cyclomatic complexity of the program segment is .....................
Answer: 5
39.       Consider a LAN with four nodes S1, S2, S3 and S4. Time is divided into fixed-size slots, and a node can begin its transmission only at the beginning of a slot. A collision is said to have occurred if more than one node transmit in the same slot. The probabilities of generation of a frame in a time slot by S1, S2, S3 and S4 are 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4, respectively. The probability of sending a frame in the first slot without any collision by any of these four stations is ...................
Answer: 0.40 to 0.46
