Introduction

UGC NET or NTA-UGC-NET is the examination for determining the eligibility for the assistant professor and/or Junior Research Fellowship award in Indian universities and colleges. National Testing Agency examines on behalf of the University Grants Commission. In this article, we will cover questions 26 to 50. We have covered questions 1 to 25 in the first part of UGC NET Nov 2015 PAPER-III Part-1, and 51 to 75 in the third part of UGC NET Nov 2015 PAPER-III Part-3.

Questions

26. Which of the following control fields in the TCP header is used to specify the sender has no more data to transmit?

(A) FIN            (B) RST

(C) SYN          (D) PSH

Answer: A

Explanation: The control flag FIN in the TCP header denotes the end of data transmission to complete a TCP connection. To start a TCP connection, the SYN flag synchronizes sequence numbers. RST terminates the TCP connection immediately. The PSH flag instructs the host to upload the data to the receiving application right away.

 

27. Which are the two modes of IP security?

(A) Transport and Certificate (B) Transport and Tunnel

(C) Certificate and Tunnel  (D) Preshared and Transport

Answer: B

Explanation: Only the IP packet's payload is typically encrypted and/or authenticated in transport mode. Because the IP header is not changed or encrypted, the routing is preserved.

Tunnel mode encrypts and/or authenticates the entire IP transmission. The information is subsequently enclosed in a new IP packet with a new IP header. Network-to-network, host-to-network, and host-to-host communications are all possible with tunnel mode.

 

28. A message “COMPUTER NETWORK” encrypted(ignore quotes)using columnar transposition cipher with a key “LAYER”. The encrypted message is:

(A) CTTOEWMROPNRUEK           (B) MROUEKCTTPNROEW

(C) OEWPNRCTTUEKMRO           (D) UEKPNRMROOEWCTT

Answer: C

Explanation: 

C O M P U
T E R N E
T W O R K

 

29. Suppose a digitized voice channel is made by digitizing an 8 kHz bandwidth analog voice signal. It is required to sample the signal at twice the highest frequency (two samples per hertz). What is the bit rate required, if it is assumed that each sample requires 8 bits?

(A) 32 kbps    (B) 64 kbps

(C) 128 kbps  (D) 256 kbps

Answer: C

Explanation: The analog channel has an 8K/sec bandwidth.

2samples/Hz =2s required sample

Each sample is 8 bits long.

As a result, bit rate = (8k)*2*(8 bit)=128 kbps.
 

30. The maximum payload of a TCP segment is

(A) 65,535      (B) 65,515

(C) 65,495      (D) 65,475

Answer: C

Explanation: The maximum size of the TCP window in the TCP segment is 65,535 bytes; the minimum TCP header size is 20 bytes and the maximum TCP header size is 60 bytes; the minimum IP header size is 20 bytes and the maximum TCP header size is 60 bytes; and the rest is the payload value.

Window size - Min Header size (TCP + IP) = maximum payload value

65535 – (20 + 20) is the maximum payload value.

65535 – 40 is the maximum payload value.

The maximum payload is 65495.
 

31. An all-pairs shortest-paths problem is efficiently solved using:

(A) Dijkstra's algorithm           (B) Bellman-Ford algorithm

(C) Kruskal Algorithm          (D) Floyd-Warshall algorithm

Answer: D

Explanation: The Floyd-Warshall approach with time complexity O(n3) is used to solve an all-pairs shortest-paths issue effectively using dynamic programming.
 

32. The traveling salesman problem can be solved in:

(A) Polynomial-time using a dynamic programming algorithm

(B) Polynomial-time using a branch-and-bound algorithm

(C) Exponential time using a dynamic programming algorithm or branch-and-bound algorithm.

(D) Polynomial-time using a backtracking algorithm.

Answer: C

Explanation: A dynamic programming algorithm or a branch-and-bound technique can solve the traveling salesman problem in exponential time.

 

33.  Which of the following is asymptotically smaller?

(A) lg(lg*n)     (B) lg*(lg n)

(C) lg(n!)         (D) lg*(n!)

Answer: A

Explanation: lg *n, (Inverse Ackermann function) is the maximum number of times we can take log until we receive one. For all practical reasons, this function can be considered constant.

 

34. Consider a hash table of size m=100 and the hash function h(k) = floor(m(kA mod 1)) for A = (√5 − 1)/2 = 0.618033. Compute the location to which the key k = 123456 is placed in the hash table.

(A) 77  (B) 82

(C) 88  (D) 89

Answer: C

Explanation: 

h(123456)= floor (100 * (123456* 0.618033) % 1)

= floor (100 * (76299.88205 % 1)

= floor (100 * (.88205))

= floor (88.205)

= 88
 

35. Let f(n) and g(n) be asymptotically non-negative functions. Which of the following is correct?

(A) θ(f(n) * g(n)) = min(f(n), g(n))

(B) θ(f(n) * g(n)) = max(f(n), g(n))

(C) θ(f(n) + g(n)) = min(f(n), g(n))

(D) θ(f(n) + g(n)) = max(f(n), g(n))

Answer: D

Explanation: 

Case-1: When neither f(n) nor g(n) are constant functions – Since max(f(n), g(n)) = f(n) * g(n), max(f(n), g(n)) cannot offer an upper bound for f(n) * g(n) (n).

Case-2: When both f(n) and g(n) are constant functions, or when either f(n) or g(n) is a non zero constant function, f(n) * g(n) = theta(max(f(n), g(n)).

Case #3: When at least one of f(n) and g(n) is zero. f(n) * g(n)!= theta(max(f(n), g(n)). Because max(f(n), g(n)) MAY NOT be able to provide a lower bound.
 

36. The number of nodes of height h in any n - element heap is ..............

(A) h                (B) zh

(C) ceil(n/zh)  (D) ceil(n/zh+1)

Answer: D

Explanation: We can demonstrate this using a random case.

If we take n=9 and the required h=3 (for example), option d will return an answer of (9/16=1(ceil)), which is incorrect.

Option C gives us (9/8=2), which is right.
