ICT Fundamentals for Libraries Questions and Answers

Q: Program which is used to control system performance is classified as ....................... .

A program used to control system performance is a System program.System programs (system software) manage and control the computer itself: the operating system, device drivers, utilities for monitoring and tuning performance, and so on. They provide the platform on which application programs run.'Experimental', 'specialized' and 'organized' program are not standard categories of software. The basic division is between system software, which runs the machine, and application software, which does users' tasks.

Q: Which "V" of Big Data is concerned with the usefulness of data ?

The V concerned with the usefulness of data is Value.Big data is commonly described by its Vs. Value is the worth or usefulness that can be extracted from the data for decisions and insight, which is the point of collecting it at all.Velocity is the speed at which data are generated and processed. Variety is the range of data types and sources, structured and unstructured. Veracity is the reliability and accuracy of the data. Each describes a property of the data, not its usefulness.

Q: Position Detection pattern are arranged at .................. corners of the QR code.

Position detection patterns are at 3 corners of a QR code.A QR code has three large square 'finder' or position detection patterns, at the top-left, top-right and bottom-left corners. A scanner uses them to find the code and work out its position, size and angle, so it can be read from any orientation.The fourth corner is left without one, which is how the reader tells which way up the code is; larger codes have smaller alignment patterns elsewhere. So 1, 2 and 4 are wrong.

Q: ISO/IEC 18004 : 2000 is the international standard for developing .................... .

ISO/IEC 18004:2000 is the standard for the QR code.The QR (Quick Response) code was created by the Japanese company Denso Wave in 1994, and ISO/IEC 18004 is the international standard specifying its symbology: the finder patterns, encoding modes, error correction levels and so on. Later editions updated the 2000 standard.Biometrics, MARC (whose exchange structure is ISO 2709) and bibliographic records are covered by other standards, not by ISO/IEC 18004.

Q: Which language is used for developing RDF ?

RDF is written in RDF/XML.RDF, the Resource Description Framework of the W3C, describes resources as subject-predicate-object triples. RDF/XML is the syntax defined by the W3C for writing RDF graphs as XML documents, and it was the original standard serialization; others, such as Turtle and JSON-LD, came later.'RDF/HTML', 'HTML/RDF' and 'RDF/SGML' are not the standard RDF syntaxes. RDF is built on XML, not on HTML or SGML directly.

Q: Assertion (A) : Work about Big data could also be found in Library.Reason (R) : Library data needs to be transformed into information or knowledge.

Both (A) and (R) are true.Assertion A: libraries now hold and generate big data, including large digital collections, circulation and usage logs, research data and catalogue records at scale, and library work increasingly involves managing and analysing such data, so work about big data can be found in libraries.Reason R: like any data, library data have value only when they are processed and analysed into information and knowledge, for example to understand use and plan services.Both statements are true, so the options calling either one false are wrong.

Q: Assertion (A) : Cloud computing does not facilitate external collaboration.Reason (R) : Cloud computing causes libraries to provide innovative web services for users.

(A) is false, but (R) is true.Assertion A is false: cloud computing makes external collaboration easier, since documents, data and applications stored in the cloud can be shared and worked on by people in different places and organisations at once.Reason R is true: cloud platforms let libraries offer innovative web services, such as cloud-hosted catalogues and discovery tools, digital repositories and shared storage, without maintaining their own servers.The options calling A true or R false are therefore wrong.

Program which is used to control system performance is classified as ....................... .

A.Experimental program
B.System program

In Ring Topology, the data can be transmitted only if the computer possesses ...................... .

A.Token
B.Packet
C.Data
D.Access method

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2020, SET Exam - 2020,

Answer: A

In a ring topology a computer can transmit only if it possesses the Token.

In a token ring network a special frame, the token, circulates around the ring. A station that wants to send waits until the token reaches it, takes it, sends its data, and then releases the token to the next station. Since only the holder of the token can transmit, collisions are avoided.

Packets and data are what is transmitted, not the permission to transmit. 'Access method' is the general term for how stations share the medium; token passing is the access method here, and the token is the thing a station must hold.

Both (A) and (R) are true.

Assertion A: libraries now hold and generate big data, including large digital collections, circulation and usage logs, research data and catalogue records at scale, and library work increasingly involves managing and analysing such data, so work about big data can be found in libraries.

Reason R: like any data, library data have value only when they are processed and analysed into information and knowledge, for example to understand use and plan services.
