Chapter 9.9, Problem 9.6PP
Program Plan Intro

Dynamic allocator:

Dynamic allocator keeps the heap as a group of several size blocks; each block is an attached portion of virtual memory which is allocated or free.

  • An allocated block has been clearly kept for use by the application.
  • A free block is offered to be allocated.

Two types of allocators:

  1. 1. Explicit allocators
  2. 2. Implicit allocators

Explicit allocators:

Explicit allocators need the application to explicitly free any allocated blocks.

Implicit allocators:

Implicit allocators is the method of automatically releasing vacant allocated blocks. This is also known as garbage collection.

Implicit free list:

In this method, a block contains one word header, payload and additional padding. The header encrypts the block size which contains header and padding; and also check the block is allocated or free.

  • If the arrangement is double-word, the block size is constantly a multiple of “8” and the low-order bits of the block size are always zero.
  • Thus, essential to store only the high-order “29 bits” of the block size, freeing the remaining “3 bits” to encrypt other information.
  • Here, smallest significant bits is using to represent the block is allocated or free.

C++   Problem 1) Find how many non-zero element are in a matrix (two-dimensional array)- use as an example: 10 -4 0 7 8 3 0 0 1 Read the values from input (cin) using for loops and use for loops to find the answer.   C++
(4) [8]Write code for a function multBy3divBy4, that for argument int x, computes 3*x/4, but follows the bit-level integer coding rules (text p.128) like in problem 3 of the assignment 1. (you may assume ints are 32 bits). (Note: The operation in your code 3*x is allowed to cause overflow.)
Question 2  Using the incomplete programming code given, complete the code using dynamic programming with memory function, to reproduce the results in the following Table 1. (C++) #include<iostream>using namespace std; // max knapsack capacity       // *** WRITE YOUR CODE HERE ***// num of items                // *** WRITE YOUR CODE HERE ***// weight of each item         // *** WRITE YOUR CODE HERE ***// value of each item         // *** WRITE YOUR CODE HERE ***// variable for dynamic programming matrix  // *** WRITE YOUR CODE HERE ***   //==========================================// Dynamic programming function: recursive// ========================================= // ALGORITHM F(i,j)        // int value        // if F[i,j] is not filled yet (-1):                // (start with j = W, i = n)        // if capacity j < current item's weight w[i]:            // value = recall F(i-1, j)                                // else:                        // we can include current item,…
