1. Suppose that an operating system had the following six states:

State	Description
Running	Currently using the CPU
Ready	Waiting for the CPU
Blocked for Interrupt	Waiting for an interrupt handler to finish, then resume running
Blocked for a resource	Waiting for a resource to be allocated, then will become ready
Suspended	Moved to secondary storage from ready
Created	Process is newly created
Terminated	Process no longer exists

Draw a state diagram to represent a process with these states. Make sure to label state transitions.

2. The table below illustrates a process model of a person, in which there are only two states: sleeping and waking. The states of this process model are as follows:

Waking	Person is doing all other daily activities
Sleeping	Actively sleeping

The transitions between the two states of a person are:

Waking-> Sleeping ( Person is tired and lays down to sleep)

Sleeping -> Waking (Alarm clock goes off and wakes the person from sleep)

1. Add four more states to the diagram (for example, eating or studying)
2. Draw all of the possible transitions among the six states in your state diagram.
