Consider contiguous allocation of physical memory to processes using variable
partitioning scheme. Suppose there are 8 holes in the memory of sizes 20 KB, 4 KB,
25 KB, 18 KB, 7 KB, 9 KB, 15 KB, and 12 KB. Assume that no two holes are
adjacent. Two processes P1 of size 16 KB and P2 of size 9 KB arrive in that order,
and they are allocated memory using the best-fit technique. After allocating space
to P1 and P2, the number of holes of size less than 8 KB is ____________. (answer
in integer)
Note: 1K=210
Correct : 3
