Q. What is PAN, ISM Band? 

The ISM radio bands were originally reserved internationally for the use of RF energy for industrial, scientific and medical purposes other than communications. Examples of applications in these bands include radio-frequency process heating, microwave ovens, and medical diathermy machines. The powerful emissions of these devices can create electromagnetic interference and disrupt radio communication using the same frequency, so these devices were limited to certain bands of frequencies

Radio Frequency Spectrum & Industrial Scientific Medical (ISM)

LF                              HF                      UHF                            Microwave 

125 Hz-140KHz    13.56 MHz      860 MHz-960 MHz        2.45 GHz -5.8. GHz

                                                 865 MHz-869 MHz ( India)

In general, communications equipment operating in these bands must accept any interference generated by ISM equipment.

PAN : Personal Area Network

A network for interconnecting devices centered around an individual person's workspace - in which the connections are wireless. Typically, a wireless personal area network uses some technology that permits communication within about 10 meters - in other words, a very short range. One such technology is Bluetooth, using which we can connect our mobile phone, our wireless headphone, laptop.

 A WPAN could serve a more specialized purpose such as allowing the surgeon and other team members to communicate during an operation. 

A key concept in WPAN technology is known as "plugging in". In the ideal scenario, when any two WPAN-equipped devices come into close proximity (within several meters of each other) or within a few kilometers of a central server, they can communicate as if connected by a cable. Another important feature is the ability of each device to lock out other devices selectively, preventing needless interference or unauthorized access to information.

The technology for WPANs is in its infancy and is undergoing rapid development. Proposed operating frequencies are around 2.4 GHz in digital modes. The ISM bands are widely used for Radio-frequency identification (RFID) applications, including those used by biometric passports and contactless smart cards.

Ans : A bit in the page table which is set to 1 when a shared program is in use to prevent its pages being replaced as long as at least one user is executing the shared program.
