Coding problem3

It was on 21 December at 10 A.M. I was asked to introduce myself. I was asked about my projects and then there was a discussion about my internships. Things like what things I did and what tools I used for integration and testing etc. I didn’t use any tools like that so I told my interviewer that we did not use any tools and everything was manual. This was followed by questions on Testing, Software Engineering, OOPS, and OS. I was not able to answer all the questions but I tried to figure answers on spot.

1. OS Questions

Difference between thread and process?
What is deadlock? How do you solve deadlocks?
What scheduling algorithms do you know?

2. SE Questions

What are states and events?
What are the principles of OOPS?
