l, a) Consider an array of sizc 10 with four elements stored in it If each data lakes 4bytes to
Store , then compute the memory requirement of the array. If a linked list requires 4 bytes to
slore the address, then what is the memory requirement of a linked list? Compare both the
cases and justify which data structure is better in the given scenario. Also diflerentiate
them(6)
b) Elaborate the role of stack frames in function calls(4)
2. Assume that patients arrive at a hospital at random intervals. At times emergency cases
do arrive. Suggest a suitable ADT lo simulate the order in which the patients are treated.
Discuss an pseudocode for this simulation (10)
3. . In several applications, more than one stack may be requircd together. Some stacks
overflow whereas others are nearly empty. Suppose an application requires two stacks X and
Y (as below figure). One can define an array Awith N, elements for stack X and another
aray B with N, elements for slack Y. Now instead of dclining iwO separate arrays A and B,
we can define asingle aay, say AB, with N=N, +N,elements for Xand Ytogether. Let us
define the starting locations of items for stack X and Y as AB[0] and AB[N-1]respectively
and Xgrows lo the right whereas Y grows to the let.

+TOPX TOPY« 27

With this scenario, overflow will occur only when X and Y together have morc than N
elements. This technique will usually decreasc the number of situations of occurrence of
overflow even though we have not increased the total amount of space reserved for the two
stacks.

Write algorithm for PUSH X, PUSH Y, POP X, POP Y and STATUS AB (to be defined
to test the slate of empty or full, percentage of spacc occupied by Xand Y) by considering
the above said scenario. (10)

I. (a).The probability that a regularly scheduled flight departs on time is P(D) = 0.83; the probability that
it arrives on time is P(A) = 0.82: and the probability that it departs and arives on time is P(D nA) =

that both fuses are defective? (5M)

2. Amanufacturing firm employs three analytical plans for the design and devclopment of a particular
product. For cost reasons, allthree are used at varying times. In fact, plans I, 2, and 3are used for
30%, 20% and 50% of the products respectively. The "dcfcct rate" is different for the three procedures
as follows: P(D/P,)= 0.01,P(D/P,) = 0.03, P(D/P;) = 0.02, where P(D/P}) is the probability of
adefective product, given plan j. 1Ifa random product was observed and found to be defective, which
plan was most likely used and thus responsible? (10M)
