Here are 15 multiple choice questions at the university level about quality of service and system performance:
Quality of Service (QoS)
1. What is the purpose of QoS?
o (A) To ensure that all users have a fair share of network resources.
o (B) To prioritize traffic so that more important applications can perform better.
o (C) To minimize latency and jitter for delay-sensitive applications.
o (D) All of the above.
2. What are some of the different types of QoS metrics?
o (A) Bandwidth, latency, jitter, and packet loss.
o (B) Throughput, response time, availability, and reliability.
o (C) Utilization, error rate, mean time to failure (MTTF), and mean time to repair (MTTR).
o (D) All of the above.
3. What are some of the common ways to implement QoS?
o (A) Priority queuing, traffic shaping, and bandwidth allocation.
o (B) Caching, load balancing, and failover.
o (C) Intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS) and firewalls.
o (D) All of the above.
System Performance
4. What are some of the factors that affect system performance?
o (A) Hardware resources, software resources, and workload.
o (B) Operating system, network, and database.
o (C) Application design, code quality, and testing.
o (D) All of the above.
5. What are some of the common ways to measure system performance?
o (A) Throughput, response time, and resource utilization.
o (B) Uptime, downtime, and availability.
o (C) Error rate, mean time to failure (MTTF), and mean time to repair (MTTR).
o (D) All of the above.
6. What are some of the common ways to improve system performance?
o (A) Upgrade hardware, optimize software, and tune system parameters.
o (B) Implement caching, load balancing, and failover.
o (C) Monitor and analyze system performance, and identify and address performance bottlenecks.
o (D) All of the above.
