Exploring System Processes and Resource Usage via Task Manager

This assignment involves exploring and analyzing system processes using the Task Manager utility. Students are required to start and manipulate applications like Notepad and WordPad, observing their behavior within the Task Manager. The assignment covers topics such as identifying CPU and memory usage by different processes, understanding runaway processes and their impact on system resources, and examining the role of kernel memory. Students will also investigate the effects of changing process priorities and the impact of running multiple instances of applications. Furthermore, the assignment includes tabulating and interpreting the CPU and memory usage of various applications to draw conclusions about system resource utilization. The assignment aims to provide practical experience in understanding and managing system resources.
