The state transition initiated by the user process itself in an operating system is

  • A.block
  • B.dispatch
  • C.wake up
  • D.timer run out

Answer: A

Correct answer: block

A process moves itself from running to blocked by asking for something not yet available - an input operation, or a semaphore held by another process. That transition is the one the process initiates. Dispatch, timer run-out and wake-up are all imposed on it by the scheduler or by another process.
