    1. System calls are used to request access to the resources of the machine,
    to communicate with other currently running programs, and to start new
    programs.

    2. Memory Map:

    Parent Process:
    Label Address value
    i 400-403 ?0
    j 403-406 01234
    k 407-410 0136

    Child Process:
    Label Address value
    i 410-413 03456
    j 413-416 1 -3 -8
    k 416-420 6

    3. Signals are a set of system calls designed to facilitate communication be-


    tween the Operating System and an application.

    They are most commonly used by operating systems to tell programs that
    they need to terminate.
